While the return for capital cannot be questioned, and the necessities of the district de mand accommodation, the expenditure must necessarily fall below the usual amount for works of equal magnitude. To identify this project with that of the Erewash Valley, although not included under, or belonging to the same executive, it is pro posed to allow subscribers in that Company shares in the Erewash Extension : the number to be regulated by the interest retained In the elder project. The • deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the Share holders beyond the deposit now paid, until the Act of Parliament is obtained ; and power will be taken in the Act to allow 4 per cent. In terest upon all calls. • Prospectuses , maps, and forms, may be had at the Offices of Hull Terrell, Esq., solicitor, 30, Basinghall-street, London ; G. Cressy Hall,Esq.

The object of this railway is to afford to the Inhabitants residing within a circle of about ten m les soutk of the Thames the means of a safe, frequent, and speedy communication with the heart of tho City. It is proposed to have a central terminus in Queen-street, Cheap side, with a direct line of railway over Southwark-bridge to the Ele phant and Castle, and thence by radiating branches to accommodate the localities of Kennington, Brixton; Streatham, Croydon; Clap ham, Balham, Tooting, Mitcham, Walworth, Camberwell, Peckham, Dulwich, Norwood, the Kent-road, Deptford, Greenwich, Black heath, Charlton, Woolwich, Wandsworth, Putney, Mortlake, and Itichmou f, completing' the chain of comnnuticat'on with the South- Western at Wandsworth, and with the London and Brighton and South-Eastern Line at Croydon. It is needless to point out in this preliminary announcement the enormous passenger traffic which may be expected on this railway, when it is considered that the portion of the suburbs to which ac commodation is to be afforded contain a population of between seven and eight hundred thousand persons, requiring daily inter course with the City. As this 0112 will be constructed upon the atmospheric principle, and the present public roads will be adopted as far as practicable, the cost will not bear comparison with that of railways in general, and it is estimated that it will pay to the shareholders of the under taking a remunerating profit of not less than 10 per cent., even reckoning the conveyance of passengers at the 1&w rates of from 3d. to 6d. for the whole, or any part of the distance, to say nothing of the enormous traffic in parcels and goods. A detailed prospectus, with the names of a very influential Com mittee, and other officers, will appear in a few days. In the mean time all communications and applications for shares, in the usual form, may be addressed to R. B.

Assuming the northern terminus of the Erewash Railway as its origin, this line will pass through localities totally un provided with railway accommodation, into the populous. ma nufacturing districts of Lancashire. It will continue the important line from which it borrows the prefix of its name, from Alfreton, in Derbyshire, where it will be a recipient of traffic from the Cromford Canal—communicating with the Codnor ironworks —along the Dinting Vale, and, obeying the course of the river Derwent, enter Yorkshire, in the vicinity of Saddleworth. In its course, it will pass through or near to Matlock, Ashbourne, Glos sop, Mottram, Ilyfleld, and Duckenfield, in reaching which point, the Manchester and Sheffield Railway will be intersected, and the Ilud • derstield Canal Railway passed, near to the Rochdale station of the Manchester and Leeds Railway. -., - It is unnecessary to state here the character of the country from Rochdale to Blackburn : it will be sufficient to observe, that it is the seat of those manufactures to which Enklanci owes her accunu wealth. The line will proceed thence through or near to Whitworth and Rossendale, and fall into the East Lancashire Railway, in the ♦icinity of fiaslingden. A branch will be thrown eut of the trunk line, from the Junction with the East Lancashire line near Haslingden, by Low-Moor iron works and liacup, to Todinortien. The Erewash Extension will be the only direct route from the centre of Derbyshire to the great manufacturing towns and chief seaports of Lancashire. It will traverse a valley district adorned with the most picturesque scenery, and, at the same time, rich in mineral produce. It will communicate, laterally, with several trunk lines of railway, and will be fed by no less than five working canals— the Cromford—the Manchester and Id—the lituldersfield—the Manchester and Leeds—and the Liverpool and Blackburn. To the multiplication of ativantues which intersecting railways and lines of still-water navigation are compelled to afford, the throw ing out of branches from the line itself in so many directions will add still further powers of accommodation, and, when the dense popula tion hi the localities traversed is considered, there is every reason to conclude that au ample remuneration /trr voted capital will be ob .

This line will pass in a direct course from Tunbridge, via Paddock Wood (thus connecting itself with Maidstone) through the parishes of Brenchley, llorsmonden, Goudhurst, Cranbroek, Benenden, liawkhurst, Sandhurst, Rolvenden, Newenden, Northiam, Peas marsh, Beckley, Iden, and Playden, to the town and harbour of Rye, and it will embrace a large extent of adjacent country, at pre sent unprovided with, and much requiring, the admitted advantages of railway transit. The length of the line will be about 25 miles—a great portion of it will pass through a level country, and the remaining part is free from any mat,rial engineering difficulty, or works likely to require any serious outlay, and it Is not expected to be necessary to interfere with any residences or ornamental property. The saving of distance to Rye, and all the other places embraced by this line,wlll be considerable. The capital required is estimated not to exceed 500,0001. During the last session of Parliament application was made for a similar line, partially embracing the same country, when It was shown in detail by evidence produced before the Committee, that the contemplated traffic, after deducting 401. per cent. for working ex penses, would leave a large per tentage upon the invested capital. That line was rejected on the ground that the best direction had not been selected, but with an intimation that the port of Rye was en titled to a direct railway communication with the interior of the country, in the best direction towards London. The preseut scheme has Leen based upon this intimation, taking advantage of the merits and detects which appeared upon that investigation, and as it em braces a more populous and productive country, and passes in a more direct line to London, and will have the benefit of better access to other and more numerous lines, the sources of traffic are consider ably increased, and there is every reason to believe, from what passed during the last session, that the present plan will be favourably enter tained by the Legislature. The chief object is to open the port of Rye to the Ml benefit of a railway communication, through a populous and productive district, in the direction of London, to the best point at which it can avail itself of the existing and contemplated lines. The imports of Rye, particularly coals, with lime and other ma nures, are of great importance to the country through which this line will pass, and a cheaper and better mode of transit will much increase the demand for them, and give the opportunity of great improvement in the cultivation of the adjacent country. A railway through the heart of the chief hop district or the king dom, also producing corn, timber, and hop poles, and communicating at its terminus With a great part of the important cattle district of Romney Marsh, must be a public advantage. The port of Rye is admitted to be the best outlet and quickest route to Paris and to'other parts of the Continent, and there can be no doubt if a direct railway should be made to Rye, with a moderate improve ment In the harbour, that it would be much adopted, particularly as a national and commercial communication with France, and by per sons travelling on business.

Commencing at Cambridge, which has now become the traffic centre of the Eastern Counties, by the line of railway intended to be termed by that Company, this line will proceed to Bedford, there passing near Olney it will cross at or near the Ellsworth Station of the Londin and Birmingham Railway, where it will communicate with the Northampton and Peterborough line; it will then proceed west ward. crosivirtheVoinnt and Rugby line at or near Fenny-Compton to Stratior&oa r kvonallsre joining the proposed line from Warwick and Leamington to Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, and the West of England ; continuing its course through Alcester, the line will go di rect to Worcester, and thus terminate at the great centre of traffic for the mineral and manufacturing districts of South Staffordshire, ghropshire, and North and South Wales. 'This proposed lino d•ra not interfere with any existing railways, and presenting, as it does, an unbroken line between two great centres of traffic, the Importance of the undertaking needs no further comment.

This railway is proposed to commence at Uxbridge, proceeding thence to the Southall Station of the Great Western Railway, and then through Heston to Hounslow, there meeting one of the proposed lines to Hounslow from London. Leaving Hounslow the line pro ceeds through Whitton, Twickenham, Teddington, and Hampton, to Kingston, and, crossing the Thames, joins the Kingston station of the South-Western Railway, whence it'svill proceed to, and terminate at ,Epsom. t 200,00 0 diately affects, n contain anthrough aggrega t e population ofasses abon The towns aplaces which the line p, or most Immo persons.

So also as to Brentfqrd, Hounslow, King ston, and Epsom—it will afford to them access to the Great Western, London and Birmingham. and Northern and Eastern linos; and by this line, in connexion with one proposed to Hounslow from the me tropolis, and the other proposed and established linos north and south of it, easy access will be afforded to Hampton-court, Epsom, and other favourite places of resort. There can be no doubt, therefore, that the passenger traffic alone will be sufficient to pay a very large dividend on the outlay. The average number of persons visiting Hampton-court In the summer months amounts to about 18,000 per week. The supply by the county of Kent and western division of Middle sex of the north and north-western markets with fruit during the season, would, by this line, be immensely increased, and form another source of income to the Company. This undertaking presents the additional and Important advantage of competing with no line at present established ; on the contrary, it will be the means of connecting and feeding the several lines enu merated, and several others that are projected ; and the engineer reports that it passes over a particularly easy country, and will be capable of construction at about 16,000/. per mile ; and the land owners on the line who have been seen, are favourable to the un dertaking. The length of the line will be about 18 miles.

It will convey to the agricultural districts of Herefordshire and South Shtopshire, and also to the towns of Bridguorth and Ludlow, coals and the mineral productions of Staffordshire, Woreestershire. ani the Clee-hills, at nearly one-half the present cost of those neces sary articles, and be the means of conveyance for corn, cattle, sheep, cider, wool, hops, and other agricultural productions, as also timber froln the before-mentioned agricultural counties, to the heart of the mining and manufacturing districts, which cannot fail to produce an Immense traffic. The importance of connecting remote parts of England by rail ways, with the advantages thereby conferred upon intermediate towns and districts, can scarcely be better exemplified than by the line which is now proposed to form a short and direct channel of inter course between Oxford and Salisbury. Numerous projected lines now before the public will make Oxford at the north, and Salisbury at the south of the intended railroad, the central points from which various radii will diverge to the north-west, north, and north-east of the former, and to the south and west of the latter ; and the I proposed line from Cambridge to Oxford, continuing to that city the course of railway front the north-eastern parts of the island, requires the appliance now suggested to effect a complete means of transit to the western and south-western counties. The Oxford and : 4 itlisbury Direct Railway, is addition to the benefits which will be conferred upon the nation at the Cathedral City of Salls large, by perfecting a direct line of commuu'eatiott be tween the north - eastern and western and south-western parts of England, will afford to the boreugh of Abingdon, the market towns of waidage, Ilungerford, and Ltulgershall, and the adjacent villages, an important railway accosamodatien, of which the agricultural districts in which they are seated stand in much need, and will provide a facility for the iutereliange of produce be. tween the rural, manufacturing , and. c- a i nalercial population of the k w it r ig y do i m at . e. The City and University of Oxford, combining also the advantage of a direct communication with the sister University of Cambridge ; thus strengthening the ecclesiastical and academical relations of the whole, whilst the com mercial prosperity of the two terminal cities Must of necessity be essentially enhanced. alii:elexiwamill with the the Cit. °dation has The want of railway aceoraM long been felt to press p ed m iii e t e e te co d unfairly upon the inhabitants of the important and thriving town of Abingdon. Their gleans and opportunities of competing with the more fortunate traders of those towns which are already provided with di rect channels of transit, are thus severe i v crippl e d . T he same remark applies in some degree to th e market ll of Wantage, 'which, as well as Ilungerford and Ludgershali , claims a share of the profits and advantages produced by railway traffic. It has therefore been determined to commence the proposed line at Oxford, and to proceed through Abingdon to the station of the Great Western Railway at Steventon, thus giving to Abingdon a direct rail road to London. By contin uin g the projected railwa y t o Wantage, the same facility of transit to London will be aforded to that place; and a perfect line of road from the north-eastern counties will, by a junc tion with the projection from Cambridge to Oxford, b e produced, through the towns which have been named, Hungerford and Ludgere. hall, to Salisbury, and thence to tke south and western port s and diE. tracts. rospectnses to Applications for shares end p be made to M essrs .
