William Frederick Burnley, Esq., Glasgow James Cavan, Esq., Park-crescent John Constable, Esq., Lime-street Henry Davidson, Esq., Lime-street-square William Eccles, Esq., Glitciw John Alexander Hankey, Esq., Brook-street Thomson Hankey, jun., Esq., .31ineing-lane John Irving, Eiqi, Michael M`Ehlery, Esq., Finsbury-circus That another and a more direct line of railway is necessary between the metropolis and the manufacturing districts around Manchester, is now fully admitted, and the question is, which is the best line to be adopted. The above proposed railway will form the shortest and most di rect route from London to Manchester, and will therefore complete the direct communication with the metropolis at a much less expen diture of capital than by either of the projected London and Man chester lines (Remington's and Ashurst's), the actual distance to be constructed being only 73, instead of 170 to 180 miles. A careful preliminary survey has determined the promoters of this railway to adopt nearly a straightline from Rugby to Macclesfield, as an increased expenditure of 200,0001. or 300,000/.judiciously applied in the present perfected state of civil engineering, and at the reduced cost of the execution of earth works, will prove in the end a far greater real economy, both to the Company itself in the saving effected in the annual expense of working, and also, what is of more importance, to the country in general, by accomplishing, at a much less cost, the same end proposed by an entire and distinct line from London to Manchester. These considerations have not been sufficiently kept in view by other parties who have also proposed to make a railway from Rugby to Macclesfield, but who, by deviating from the direct tract to pursue valleys and to avoid the irregularities of the face of the country, obviously lose the advantages proposed by this Company. The Parliamentary decision on th e dud ce of the London and Brighton Railway is a parallel case, the direct line, although presenting more difficulties to overcome, and involving a greater outlay, having been adopted by Parliament in preference to the many competing projects, in a more or less sinuous direction, which were at that time supported In the House by very influential parties. Should it he found necessary, arrangements have been made by which additional lines of rails will be laid between Rugby and Lon don on the London and Birmingham Railway, whereby the surplus traffic northwards will be abundantly provided for. This line also possesses the singular advantage of affording the shortest and most direct route from Manchester to Southampton, Gosport, and Portsmouth, a feature presented by no other proposed railway. By adopting the Rugby and Oxford branch of the Great Western as far as Didcot, and thence the proposed Oxford, Southamp ton, Gosport, and Portsmouth line, the distance from Manchester to Southampton will be twenty-three miles less than by any other route, and on this account the project has been warmly supported by the Oxford, Southampton, Gosport, and Portsmouth Railway Company. The deviations from a perfectly straight line between Rugby and Macclesfield to avoid high ranges of hills, ornamental parks, or valuable buildings are very slight, and the line in general offers no engineering difficulties of any magnitude. The towns more directly interested as a local line are Nuneaton, Hinckley, Atherstone, Market Bosworth, Burton .upon-Trent, Tutbury, Ashbourne, and Leek. The Company has made arrangements with the North London Junction Railway Company, whereby it has secured the use of their station (of the extent of six acres) in the centre of the City of London, at the bottom of Moorgate-street, which will prove of the utmost importance to this line. Amidst the many railway projects that now occupy the public mind, and involve a vast outlay of capital, it will readily be conceded that a line that will attain such important results at so small an outlay of capita), innl the time required for its construction, and without interfering with any existing vested interests, must meet with general approbation, and at the same time offer a very excellent investment for capital, and 14 the Manchester and The sharek•Mere in the Oxford, SoutliaMpton, Gosport, and Ports nfotith, in the Londoil and Birmingham, Birmingham Railways, will have a preference in the allotment of the shares. The deeds will provide that no call shall be In on the share holders beyond the deposit now paid, until the Act C' Parliament is cent. obtained, and power will be taken In the Act to allow 41. interest in all calls.

Company was constituted on the 28th of August, 1845, according to an Acte de SocietC, passed before M Bendier, Notary at Paris. Its object is the construction of one of the most important lines of railroad hitherto projected in France, and perhaps on the whole continent. A reference to the map will make •It sufficiently apparent that, although short in itself, this line will connect, by means of the Paris and Lyons, and other French railroads, the Atlantic and Mediterranean ; as well as France, England, Belgium, and Holland with Switzerland and Italy ; and will thus complete the great Trunk line of commu nication between the West and South-East of Europe. The length of the line is 120 kilometres, or 76 English miles ; it branches off from the Great Paris and Lyons Railroad at Macon, situated half way between Chalons-sur-Sayone and Lyons, at a dis tance of about 70 kilometres, or 27 English miles from each of those places, and passes through Bourg, the principal town of the depart ment De l'Ain, and by Nantua to Geneva. Negotiations are pending, and likely to be brought to successful issue, between this Company and the Swiss Government, with regard to an extension of this line to Lausanne and Yverdun, which will connect them with the remainder of Switzerland and Germany ; and should this important concession be gained, a preference in the allot ment of shares will, of course, be given to shareholders in this Company. The capital of the Company has been fixed at 60,000,000 of francs (or 2,400,0001.), of which 25,000,000 francs (or 1,000,0001.), are to be subscribed for in England. The English capital is divided into 50,000 shares,of 201. each, upon which a deposit of 2!. is to be paid on allotment. One month's pre vious notice will be given of all subsequent`iiistaltnents, which are not to exceed 2/. each. In case a lease of the line shall not be granted to this Company, the deposits will be paid back without deduction, but without interest. No applications for shares will be attended to unless accompanied by a first-rate reference. Applications for shares may be made, in the annexed form, to the Secretary, at the offices of the Company, 73, Basingliall-street, London ; to the Solicitors ; or to the following Brokers and Agents :-- London—Messrs.

This Company is formed to supply the valuable island of Trinidad with the advantages of railway communication. No part of the British dominions appears to present greater natural facilities for their construction; or to afford a better prospect of return for the capital required to be invested. From the time that the island was ceded to the British Crown, at the peace of Amiens, it steadily advanced until the abolition of - slavery, when it sustained a severe check, I n common with the other colonies, though its production wa s no t di m i n i s hed in the same pro portion. The fertility of its soil, and the high"wiges of labo ur, have since that period attracted e m i grants f rom a ll par ts, and especially - from the other West India I s l an d s — so t h at ' cult i va tion has been gradually restored, as will be seen by the official statement o f ex p orts. And, according to the census l a t e l y t a k en, t h e l i o pulation appears to have increased in the same period fifty per cent. As the arrangements now m a d e f or encourag i n g i mm igration pro mise to bring a large accession o f l a b our i nto th e colony, so there is every probability that its p ro d uct i on w i ll h e progressively aug mented. It may be doubled With out any addition to the existing establishments: and it is cap a bl e o f indefi n ite extension, there being still in the possession of the CrO wn upwar d s o f a million of acres of the finest virgin land within the tropics. With the increase of popu lation, and the prosperity of toriculture, there would of course be a corresponding increase of trade. In forming a system of railway communications which will suit the present condition of Trinidad, and which will yield an immediate re turn, it is, therefore, desirable to contemplate their gradual extension with the advancement of the colony. An outline of such a plan has been submitted to the Secretary of State for the Colonies ; and, alth oug h no conc lusive arrangement can be made without the assent of th e L eg i s l a ti ve Council of the island , Lord Stanley has intimated that "h e i s w illing to give every en couragement he can to the prop ose d undertaking, c onsistently with his duty of watching over the interests of the colony, and that he expected that a great part of the will recommend the subject to th e f avoura ble consideration of the Lo cal Govement.'! Under this recommendation it is • • land, as well as all the timber, which may be required for the con struction of the railways, and the works connected therewit h, will b e obtained gratuitously from the Crown ; and it is also confidently be lieved that individual proprietors will in like manner g rant the land for the lines that may intersect their estates. The precise course of these lines will depend, in some degree, upon this encouragement. It is further anticipated that liberal grants of Crown lands, contiguous to the railways, will be made in connexion with their progressive extension. These concessions, while justly made in consideration of important publid advantages, will be of great value to the Company, both im mediately and prospectively. • As the Company will be able to conduct the transport of produce, and the conveyance of passengers, at one-third, or even one-fourth, of the present expense (which appears to be from three to four shillings per ton per mile), with the additional advantage of cer tainty at all seasons, and protection from waste and plunder, there can be no doubt that their railways will command the whole of the existing traffic in the districts which they are t o traverse, as well as any increase which may arise. It appears that a single line, with passing places, sufficient to ac commodate four-fitllis of the cultivated parts of the colony, may be constructed for the amount of capital now proposed ; and upon a careful examination of the probable revenue, the Provisional Com mittee arc satisfied that it will yield a large return. It is proposed that the Engineer of the Company shall proceed forthwith to Trinidad, accompanied by an adequate number of Sur veyors, for the purpose of surveying tile intended lines ; and that no plan shall be finally adopted until he makes a detailed report. Ile will be put in communication with an influential and intelligent Committee in the colony, who will afford the most cordial co-opera. Ben and support. Provision will be made in the Act constituting the Company for limiting the responsibility of the Shareholders to the amount of their respective subscriptions.

This railway is intended to commence at the east part of the city of Exeter, neat St. Sldwells, and after passing through Topsham, with a fork at Woodbury by Lympstone to Exmouth, will proceed, in an easterly direction, towards Sidmouth, and thence, near Colyton, Beer, Seaton, Axmouth, Lyme Regis, and Charmouth, to Bridport. At Bridport the line will divide, taking the course direct to Dor chester, to join the Southampton and Dorchester Railway, and the other, passing near Bridport harbour and Abbotsbury to Weymouth. At Exeter, junctions will be formed with the Bristol and Exeter and North Devon Railways, and at Exmouth with the South Devon, by means of their steam ferry, thus making the most direct route to Plymouth from London. Also at Dorchester and Weymouth it will be connected with the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth, as well as with the Dorchester and Southampton at Dorchester. It will be seen, on refereme to the map, that by forming a junc tion with the lines of coast railway that have already been con structed or commenced from Exeter westward, and from Dorchester eastward, and by following the coast as nearly as is practicable be tween its termini, this line will effectually complete a railway cora rnunietition from Dover to the Land's End, an undertaking in itself of great national importance, and likely to meet with the cordial sup port of the Government. _ _ - . ..... In fixing the course which this Railway will take, it has been the careful consideration of the Promoters to project only such a Line as will afford the greatest facility of communication to the populous and important towns and fashionable watering places which are situated on and near that part of the Coast which this Railway is particu larly meant to accommodate; whilst, at the same time, the Agri cultural, Manufacturing, and Commercial Interests of this part of the Kingdom have been equally studied. This Line will also open such additional means of communication to the Port of Weymouth; the large Manufacturing Town and Har bour of Bridport, and the Harbour of Lyme Regis, as must even tually replace them in that high position, when compared with the other Ports of the Kingdom, which they formerly held. The Water ing Places of Exmouth, Budleigh-Salterton, Sidmouth, Charmouth, Lyme-Regis, Weythouth, Ste., will be thus thrown open to every part of England and Wales, and accommodated with that facility of ac cess which they alone require to place them on an equal position with other favourite places of resort, for which the picturesque In land and bold Coast-Scenery of Devonshire and Dorsetshire is pre eminently proverbial, and justly entitles them to hold. The following extract from the Report of the Select Committee of the House of Lords on the " Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth Rail way," made on the 18th of June, 1845, will show the sense enter tained by that body of the importance of a line of railway in the di rection proposed by the present Company :—" In making their re port, the Committee feel it their duty to state that the great diffi culty with them, In deciding on the Bill referred to them, had arisen from the fear they entertained whether, in allowing the Great Western Railway to come down to the sea at Weymouth, or even be low Yeovil, they might not be creating a difficulty as to making a railway in the most desirable manner to Falmouth, the most westerly port in the Channel." 434,974 Gentlemen,—l herebysubscribe for shares of 201. each in .the Capital Stock of the above Company, upon the terms and conditions of • the Prospectus ; and I undertake to accept the same or any less number of shares that May be allotted to me, to pay the deposit and calls thereon when required, and to confbrm to the statutes of the Company.

A preliminary survey has been made, and there are no peculiar engineering difficulties. The length of the main line, from Exeter to Dorchester, will be about fifty-two miles; and of the Forks, or exten sions, to Weymouth, and Exmouth, about sixteen miles ; making, in the whole, sixty-eight miles of railway. The sentiments of the landowners are favourable to the construc tion of a railway calculated, as this is, very greatly to benefit their properties, and in the allotment of shares preference will be given to the applications of persons locally interested. _ . Estimates of the traffic have been carefully prepared by the pro moters of the line, from which it is evident that an ample re turn will be obtained for the investment of capital in the undertak ing. More detailed traffic tables will, however, be forthwith com piled, as required by the Committees of both Houses of Parliament. The usual power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to allow interest at 4/. per cent. on the amount of deposit and calls from the passing of the Act until the completion of the line, and the liability of Shareholders will be limited to the amount of their subscriptions.

PRITAII. and Walmsley, Palace- yard, Westminster While two gigantic projects are struggling for victory, which, if obtained, would 'inevitably prove fruitless, the dense and wealthy population between Lincoln and York, and between Lincoln and Leeds, are left unsupplied with railway accommodation. Not less ambitious of accomplishing a great public benefit, the projectors of the Lincoln, York, and Leeds Junction Railway have adopted Lin coin' (with 30,000 inhabitants), York (with 40,000), and Leeds (with 152,000), as the termini of their line ; and, calculating upon the ulti mate success of the Cambridge and Lincoln Bill in the ensuing ses sion of Parliament, propose to complete the whole line of rail from London to York and Leeds by the execution of this design. Leaving Lincoln, the proposed line will be taken by Saxelby and Lea to Gainsborough, where it will cross the Trent, and thence to Haxey-gate, whence a branch will issue to Doncaster. At this lat ter place a communication will be formed with projected lines from Manchester and Sheffield to the port of Goole ; and by this arrange ment a communication will be opened with the inexhaustible coal fields of Elsecar and Silkstone—a speies not inferior to that of Dur ham and Sunderland—as well as with the limestone quarries at Warmsworth, so valuable for building purposes. Proceeding to Thorne, the line reaches Snaith, and, continuing its direct course westward to Selby, near to which it is crossed by the Hull and Selby Railway, will have its northern terminus at the city of York. At Thorne, or some convenient point near to it, an auxiliary line will emanate from the main trunk to Askern, and either by means of the proposed branch to the Wakefield, Pontefract and Goole line to that place, or by an independent course, as may hereafter be deter mined upon, will run through Pontefract direct to Leeds. By this means the whole of the manufacturing districts of the West Riding of Yorkshire and Lancashire will be rendered easily accessible. This line will be the shortest between Lincoln and York ; Lincoln and Leeds ; Lincoln and Selby ; ,York and Selby; and York and Hull. The gradients throughout the line are so favourable, that none exceed 15% feet in the mile, an instance unparalleled, if the length of it be taken into consideration. There will be no tunnels ; the works will everywhere be light; no invasion of ornamental property is neces sary; and the local interests have expressed themselves favourable to the project. From the combination of advantages, facilities, and patronage from the great breadth of new country to be supplied with railway accommodation—moderate cost of labour on the line—cnormous supply of materials, and encouraging traffic returns—an interest of ten per cent. on vested capital is confidently expected, exclusive of a fair allowance for working expenses. Power will be taken in the Bill to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. on all deposits. ' The plans and sections of the Lincoln, York, and Leeds Company, being now in the possession of the promoters of this Company, an immense saving of expense will thereby be gained.

This Railway is projected for the purpose of uniting the Rhondda and Ely \rallies, with the South Wales Railway, at a few miles dis tance from the Port of Cardiff; and to open a new mineral district, one of the richest and most important in South Wales, which is at present without the means of transit for its immense and ♦aluable products. It will pass through the central portion of the great coal-field of Glamorganshire, the 'geological formation of which is decidedly proved to afford most excellent coal and iron-stone in greater abun dance than any other in• the kingdom, with facilities of sniping ac cess seldom equalled, and the quality of the coal is admirably adapted for steam purposes and the manufacture of iron. An inexhaustible supply of limestone (so necessary for the manu facture of iron and for agricultural purposes) may be obtained by means of this Railway, much nearer and oheaper than by any other line. It is intended that the line shall commence at Blaen Rhondda, the head of the Rhondda Valley, and proceed down to a natural pass between the hills at Ffrwd Amws, a distance of eight miles, where it will enter the Ely Valley and proceed down (a' further distance of six miles) to Lanelay-bridge,' near Lantrissent, and there join the South Wales Railway, thus opening a communication under the most advantageous circumstances as to distance, with all the ports in the British channel. o l engineering is ccounlfitideesnpur;seannttitchipematseedlvteisi that t n t ewfooan,,raditionn bet iirescuted very considerably under the advertised capital.

SECRETARY —Henry Moreing, Esq. • At several large public meetings held in October last, at Brantford, Isleworth, and Ilounslow, resolutions were unanimously passed fu favour of establishing a railway communication with the metropolis, and the Gazette notices were actually published ; but the difficulty of obtaining a suitable terminus in London induced the principal promoters of this important undertaking to postpone bringing their scheme before the public. This Impediment has now been overcome, and by a proposed June- Mu with the Central Terminus and tilt Thames Embankment Rail way, - parties travelling by this line will be enabled to proceed directly to the heart of the metropolis ; and by the united Railways, which will ramify from this point, to almost every part of the country without interruption. By the intended Junction, also, with the Great Western Railway, at or near West Drayton, and by the intersection of the Birmingham Railway at Kensington, these important lines will be supplied with direct access to the Central Terminus, and thence to the City, or to the Southern and Easttra Lines. The proposed line, whi .11 passes through or near the extensive and pcipuleus suburbs of Pimlico, Chelsea, Brompton; Kensington, Ham mersmith, Chiswick, and Turnham-green, to the town of Brentford, and thence to Isleworth, Hounslow, and West Drayton, has received the moat Coidial approbation and promises of support from the great majority of the inhabitants and other parties locally interested. Thig. line is singularly free from engineering difficulties ; and, although there is almost a complete continuity of town and village throughout the whole distance, yet, from the care with which the line has been laid dbivn, so as to avoid property covered with build ings, and to take adVantage of open and unoccupied spaces, the value of the ground to be purchased will not be nearly so grcat from the nature of the localities, would be inferred. By the adop tion of the Atmospheric principle, or some equally eligible mode of working, the annoyances, inseparable from the lo comotive system will be obviated, and the advantage of almost constant trains, so in, dispensable to this densely : populated district, will be secured. The population of the Various places at which stations are proposed to be erected on the present line is not less than 200,000, and to give setae idea of the large amount of traffic which may be calculated upon, it may be stated that the present annual income derived from the carriage of passengers, by omnibuses alone, amounts to above 100,0001. ; wider these circumstances, no doubt cau be entertained of a very ample return for the capital required for this important work. The preliminary announcements of this undertaking have referred to it as the London, Itientford, Ilounslow, and Great Western Junc tion Company—a title which the Provisional Committee have upon further consideration, altered to the present designation, in order to chatingniSh it from other schemes similar in name, but differing in their proposed course. The surveys of the line are completed, and every arrangement will be made for applying to Parliament for an Act in the ensuing session, previously to which the plans will be laid before the Metropolitan Commissioners of Improvement for their approval. Applications for shares, in the subjoined form, may be made, ad dressed to the Provisional Committee, at the temporary Offices of the Company, 18, Parliament-street, to the Solicitors and Parlia mentary Agents, and to the following agents and sharebrokers : Messrs.

The object of this line of Railway is to complete the chain of coast communication, and form a connexion with lines already established or projected with reasonable hopes of success. It will commence at or near the city of Limerick, and taking a nor therly direction, proceed through the counties of Clare, Galway, Mayo, and Sligo, terminating at Sligo, by a junction with the Sligo and I:lints k filen Railway, and accommodating on its route the important cities and towns of Limerick, Ennis, Gort, Loughrea, Athenry, Monivea, 'ream, Ballinrobe, Castlebar, Westport, Foxford, Ballina, Kilalla, Swineford, Streamstown, and Sligo, which torn being connected with the north, east, and south, by the different lines through Enniskillen, London derry, Coleraine, Belfast, Armagh, Newry, Dundalk, Drogheda. Dublin, Wicklow, Wextbrd, Waterford, Cork, Killarney, Valenti*, Tralee, and Limeriek, the establishment of this line will cause Ire land to present a completeness of locomotive communication which no other country in the world enjoys. The country through which the proposed line travels is most fertile in mineral and agricultural products ; it embraces many extensive coal fields, whose advantages it will extend to all parts of Connaught and Ulster; and intersecting, as it does, so many m etropolitan dines of railway, it will develop° those advantages iu an equa l de g ree the province of Leinster. parts of the island, and The lead, iron, marble, and slate works on its route, will be rendered available to the most distant p. . it of v . ew.

This line, commtml , . English sting w tiwith so many ports, will afford the greatest facilities for the shipping of this portion of trade, some idea of the extent of which,:may be formed f r om the fact of upwards of five hundred fairs beir.g held annually in its immediate vicinity, among them, the fair of Ballinasloe, ac knowledged the greatest for sheep and cattle in the British islands. It has been ascertained that the country presents great engineering facilities for the construction of a railway, and in communications which have been received from the landowners along the line, the greatest anxiety is manifested for its completion. The subscribers will be held liable only to the extent of their first deposits until an Act of Parliament is obtained,and afterwards only to the amount of their subscriptions, Power will be applied for in the Act—and In the meantime Is belay given to the Committee—to alter the capital, if necessary ;to vary or abandon any part of the line, to make branch lines, or enter into arrangements with any other company or companies ; and also to nominate the first directors of the company. The Parliamentary contract and subscribers' agreement will be ready for signature on payment of the deposits. It will be seen from the plan that the railway intersects many nudes lines, and will thus contribute to, and receive from ,them a -con siderable amount in passenger and merchandise traffic. ..Frorn the estimates that .have been made, a return of at least 10 per cent. must. he realised on the capital. .
