The formation of a direct line of railway between Inn and the metropolis. 2. The supply of local traffic accommodation to the important districts embraced by the line. 3. The benefit of railway communication with the metropolis ex tended to a district of country, west of Grantham, upwards of 50 mils In length at present unprovided with that accommodation. . 4. The completion of the chain of railway communication between Bristol, Gloucester, the river Severn, and the southern and western counties, and tile north-eastern districts of the kingdom and the river Humber, and its ports, including that of Hull. 5. The connecting of the two important ports of Hull and South ampton by one continuous chain of railways. • Commencing at the town of Northampton, in conjunction with the . London and Birmingham, the Northampton, Banbury, and Chelten ham, and the other lines of rail Way proposed to converge at that town from the west, from Worcester and from Warwick, tile line will proceed hi a direct course to the market town of Kettering, by which place all the companies competing for the line of railway between London and Manchester propose to pass. It will then pro ceed, also, in a direct course by the market towns of Upplugham, Oakluun, and Grantham, to Lincoln. The country lying betwee n the towns of Northampton and Gran tham is wholly without existing or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to the south, but also to the north. From Lincoln the line will proceed by the shortest and best practi cable course to Hull. The sources of traffic which this line will secure are various and very considerable ; some of them only can be here enumerated. They are,— Starting from Hull the line will appropriate to itself the whole of ?. Messrs. Smith, Ellison, and Co. the traffic thence to the Metropolis, Bristol, Southampton, Glouces ter, Oxford, Cheltenham, and the whole of the Souther n and Western districts of the kingdom, and, in aldition, it will secure the very im portant and increasing local traffic between Hull and Lincoln and the intermediate towns. In tha event of the Cambridge and Lincoln Railway Company not obtaining their Act of Parliament, then the traffic from the before mentioned places and Lincoln to the south and west, also to the me tropolis, will pass along this line of railway; the former the whole distance, and the latter in any event to Grantham, a distance of about twenty-five miles ; and should the London and York Company not succeed, such traffic will proceed further toKettering or Northampton. The entire district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance of more than forty miles, and including the market towns of Oakham and Uppingham, is without railway or water-carriage accommoda tion, and the whole of its traffic therefore will travel over this line of railway, which will be in the direct course not only to the west but also to Loade3. At Kettering this line will unite with that one of the now com peting' schemes passing that town from Manchester and Leicester to London which shall be successful before Parliament. From the singularly import - Ant advantages which this undertaking presents to the capitalist, as well as to the public at large, the Pro visional Directors do not think it necessary, with reference to the supposed traffic or otherwise, to say more than that they fully be lieve that the return will be, upon the capital require;], highly re munerative. The country Is free from engineering difficulties, with one or two exceptions only, and those are more than counterbalanced by the very favourable gradients of by far the greater portion of the line ; indeed, for many miles it will run upon a water level. The line will not interfere with any ornamental property. The promoters have made every necessary arrangement for the active prosecution of the undertaking, and for applying to Parlia ment in the ensuing session. No call will be made, with the exception of the deposit, till the Act is obtained, and power will be applied for in the Act of Parliament, to allow interest at the rate of 4/. per cent. per annum on all calls from the date of their payment, and to limit the liability of each share holder to the amount of his subscription. The landowners on the line are favourable to the undertaking. The promoters reserve power to alter and vary the route, to ex tend the proposed line of railway to Great Grimsby or elsewhere, and to increase the amount of capital, as may be necessary or ad visable: Prospectuses and Plans may be obtained on application to any of the several Solicitors or Local Agents, the Secretary, or to the fol lowing Brokers, viz. :—Messrs. Peppercorne and Co., 2, Old Broad street ; Messrs. Preece and Evans, 39, Lothbury ; or Messrs.

The sav,ng of distance to Rye, and all the other places embraced by this line, will be considerable. The capital required is eatiatated not to exceed 500,000/. During the last session of Parliament application Wfts made for a similar line, pfirtiaLy embracing the same country, when it was shown in detail, by evidence prod uced before the Committee, that the 'contemplated traffic, afterdeducting 401. per cent. for work log expenses, wculd leave a large per tentage upon the invested capital. That line was rejected en the ground that the best direc tion had not been selected, but with an intimation that the port of Rye was e .titled to a direct railway communication with the inte rior of the country, in the best direction towards London. The pre sent scheme has been based upon this intimation, taking advantage of the merits and defects which appeared upon that investigation, and as it embraces a more populous and productive country, anti passes in a more direct line to London, ang will have the benefit 01 better access to other and more numerous lines, the sources of traffic are considerably increased, and there Is every reason to believe, front what passed during the last session ; that the present plan will be favourably entertained by the Legislature. railway ITl:lii.e.e , c .d h ol i ro e eo f c, o tini b o j tn e o c ioi t of l a s t, i t oo o ,,, : ,d me o i i:ot t oo h e port of Rye to the full benefit i ts , e f l i f i e o f the ilop e o x rt i existing hoi of Rye, and contemplated particularly gtililpopulouse abelsiti Psoitlt a a n t dwiiiwhich productive itca d n is a tri va ct li coals, with lime and other manures, are of great importance to the Country through•which the line will pass, and a cheaper and better mode of transit will much increase the demand for them, and give the o orortunity of great im provement ve ra m i r va t yinotirioe through ti t lia o t h io o n ar o t f o t f h et haodjoTionft hotpt(ttryt.ri great part of the Importan king dom, also producing corn, timber, and hop-poles, andlst c communicatin g a c t t tl e of d t i district le t o at its terminus with a Romney Marsh, must be a public advantage. rout The port a Rye is admitted arts of the to be time best outlet and quickest to Paris and to other p Continent, and there can be no doubt if a direct railway should be made to ltye, with moderate improvement in the harbour, that it wo.dd be much adopted, as particti a national and commercial communication with F cularl ranee , and by y persons travelling on business.

By order, BRISTOL AND EXETER RAILWAY. At a meeting of proprietors of the Bristol and Exeter Rail way Company, held at the offices of Mr. Henry Britton, No. 17, Small-stre,t, Bristol, on the 21st of October, 1845, convened for the purpose of taking into consideration the provisional agreement en tered into between the Directors of the above Company and the Directors of the Great Western Railway Company, for the sale to the latter of the Bristol and Exeter Railway, and adopting such reso lations thereupon as might be deemed advisable, Mr. WILLIAM CROSS in the Chair, It was Resolved,—lst. That this meeting, looking at the past half yearly reports, especially the last two, made by the Directors of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Company to the proprietors of that Com pany —at the present receipts--and the gradually increasing traffie upon the Bristol and Exeter Railway, with the proQpect of a still , much greater traffic from its various branches and the already I formed Sonth Devon and projected North Devon and Cornwall lines, and also at the value of the shares which the Bristol and Exeter Company possesses in the former two lines—and at the same time making every allowance for the disadvantage of a possible competing line direct from London to Exeter (estimated by the Great Western Company itself at I.i per cent.)—cannot but consider the provisional agreement made by the directors of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Company, for the sale of their railway and effects to the Great Western Railway Company, as a most improvident bargain, highly detrimental to the interests of the shareholders in the former under taking, and involving an unjustifiable sacrifice of the property of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Company, to which the proprietors of that company ought not to submit or assent ; and that measures be forthwith adopted to ascertain the sense of the proprietors in general upon the matter, and if they shall concur in opinion with this meet ing, to ensure their co-operation in preventing the confirmation of that agreement. 2d. That for these purposes a Committee be formed, consisting of the following gentlemen : Mr. J. S. Tripp Mr. C. F. Dando Mr. C. F. Thornley Mr. J. Prowse Mr. Thomas Lucas Mr. Thos. Seccombe. With power to add to their number; and that Mr. Henry Britten be requested to act as the secretary and legal adviser of the Com mittee. 1 - _.~. L ARNE, J. KNIGHT, Secretary. 4, Coleman-street, Oct. 20, 1845, The Con.mittee are therefore of opinion that the 13111 should no, be now further proceeded with." In compliance with this recommendation of their Lordships, the country has been re-surveyed by Mr. Brunel, and their Lordships' views have been as far as possible carried out. In addition to this the Cornwall Railway Company have resolved, in conjunction with the North Devon Railway Company, to connect the two lines in such a manner as to famish a direct line from Fal mouth to Exeter. By this means the London and northern traffic from Falmouth will not cross the Hamoaze, but be conveyed to its destination by a direct and uninterrupted line of railway. The ProvisiOnal Committee of the Cornwall Railway contains the names of the most Influential noblemen, and by far the greatest number of the large landowners in the districts through which it is intended the line shall pass, " all of whom are shareholders," as may be seen by reference to the prospectus recently published in your columns. The Cornwall Railway is a bona fide railway, concocted and sup ported not in London, but in counties for whose benefit it is in tended ; it Is supported by the influence and the capital of the long established Western lines, and is otherwise based upon principles which will not be shaken by the universally anticipated panic in the railway scrip market, and therefore has obtained, and will retain, the confidence and support of the public.—l am, Sir, &c., A CORNISHMAN.

Hull i — ng SECRETARY Edwa d Hart Hart, E sq. d OFFICES—No. I, Royal Exchange - buildings, Lond on; an d Nottingham--a*ornsutelmi Moss pies Esq. 36 , Upper Temple Street, Birmingham It is proposed by this Company to establish a direct line of commu nication between Birmingham, Nottingham, Gainsborough, and Hull, at the smallest outlay of capital, and with the least possible injury to existing interests. To effect this object, use will be made of existing or projected lines, as far as practicable, and the chain of communica tion will be completed by throwing out new lines, where requisite. Commencing at Birmingham, it is proposed to u-e the Birmingham and Derby Railway as far as Whitacre, whence a new line, about 29 miles in length, will be made, passing through Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Castle Donnington, to the Long Eaton or Sawley Station on the 31Id land Counties Railway 'the communication being thus perfect to Nottingham, it will be carried 4 brward as far as Gainsborough, either by the proposed Not tingham and Gainsborough Railway, or by a line springing out of the line from Nottingham to Lincoln, for which an Act was obtained by the Ifidland Counties Company during the last session of Parliament. From Gainsborough this railway will proceed to Barton-on-the- Bomber, or New Holland, in the immediate vicinity of Hull, thereby rendering complete and entire the chain of communication between Birmingham and Hall. _- • " By this project the advantages will result to the public of a Direct line from Birmingham to Nottingham, Birmingham to Gainsbo roug h, and from Birmingham to Hull; and by means of the proposed South Staffordshire Junction Railway, and the intended extension to Ashhy-de-la-Zouch and Alrewas, a direct line from Wolverhampton and Dudley to Nottingham, and the other towns already enumerated. The support of several companies will be enlisted in favour of the Ilse, which, together with its own merits, will, ensure its success in Parliament. As a considerable portion of the line of communication is already made, or in progress, the time required fur the completion of this great national undertaking will be materially shortened. - Independently of the advantages to be derived by a direct commu nication between the important seaport of Hull and the mining and manufacturing districts of Warwickshire and Staffordshire, a large traffic in timber, corn, metals, &c., may be confidently expected. The revenue of the Company, in addition, will be derived from the great thorough traffic from Birmingham and the midland counties to Nottingham and Gainsborough, and the immense traffic from Bir mingham to Hull, the'port at which the exports are shipped to Ham burgh, the German States, and the North of Europe ; and from the conveyance of merchandise, agricultural produce, and cattle from the southern, western, and midland counties. A preference will be given in the allotment of shares to landowners on the line, and other local proprietors, as well as to directors and shareholders in railways interested in supporting this undertaking. No subscriber will be liable beybnd the amount of the deposit until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his subscription. _ _ The usual power will be taken to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. from the time of payment upon each call until the opening of the line. No applications will be attended to without a reference to a member of the Committee, a banker, or the solicitors to this Company. The Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract must be executed when the bankers' receipts are exchanged for scrip certifi cates, of which due notice will be given ; and the deposits paid by any party making default in the execution of those deeds will be for feited. Plans and prospectuses, with forms of applications for shares, may be had of the Solicitors, and of the following Stock and Sharebrokers, viz. :—Messrs.

By order, THE DIRECT EXETER and COR-N WALL RAILWAY. _ London, October 23, 1845. TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING CHRONICLE. Sir,—l am aware that the statements made by projectors in a railway prospectus must not be criticised too closely ; but in a case where there is an obvious misstatement of an assumed fact (perhaps unintentional), calculated to mislead the public, it would be mani festly criminal in one who observes the evil not to correct it. In the prospectus of the Direct London and Exeter Railway, with an extension to Fahnouth, &c., the following paragraph occurs : "A further fact is, that Parliament rejected a project to connect Falmouth with Plymouth on the grow: ,1 that it might offer an ob stacle to the direct line proposed by the present company." This refers to the Cornwall Railway, which in the last session was certainly rejected, but the following report of the Lords' Committee will show the true grounds : Resolved—That " th. makiag of a railway to connect the town of Plymouth and Falmouth, with a branch to the town of.Bodmin, would be of great public advantage, by opening an additional, cer tain, and expeditions means of communication between the said places, and also by facilitating the communication between more dis tant towns and places ; but the Committee are also of opinion that it would not be advisable to adopt definitively the plan of railway communication which is intended to be carried out by the Bill, with out a further and most accurate survey of the whole line of country traversed between Plymouth and Falmouth, with a view of obtain ing gradients and curves more favourable, and avoidhig the passage of the liamoaze and of the Penryn river, below Penryn, if theselast objects can be effected without any great countervailing cost and disadvantage .~~..:.r RNlNtx, E AST.itAtN COUNTIES RAILWAY COM PANY.

Machynileth, Montgomeryshire I The most direct a , (1 speedy communication between the English and Irish capitals has beenaleelared, by influential ineiniee's of the present and former Governments, to be a great desideratum ; and possessing, in addition to this valuable authority, the sapport and sanction of many, or nearly all, he principal noblemen, gentlemen, and landholders in North Wales, this Company is established for the purpose of immediately forming a line of railway which will effect this longelesired object. The importance, nay, the necessity, of such a line has long been felt by the public at large ; it must, therefore, tae limited at not as merely a private speculation, but also as a great national undertak ing, opening, as it will. facilities t'or the most expeditions mend, be tween the two capitals, ane at the same time. offering a most direct communication with the small of Ireland, via WiCklsve, thereby 0 inferring an itnnten*.e benefit on both kingdoms. The proposed lice continence at Shrewsbury, be a junction with the Birmingham and sltrewsbary Railway, and nroceed thence as nearly as possible in a straight direction to Port Dytill ten,.pass ing through, or by, Bala, and the other principal towns on the rotate, being a distance of about entity-dour miles. A very important fea ture in this line is, that the expense and difficulty of passing the 3lenai Straits are at'oided. Hitherto the mountainous nature of some of the districts through which the line must pass, has been generally considered as opposing obstacles too formidable for locomotive i.ransit, which accounts for the principality having so long continued without the advantages of a railway. These difficulties are surmounted by the application of the atmospheric system, which it 'is therefore proposed to adopt. The considerations for employing the atmospheric principle are founded not only on the strong opinion in its favour expressed in the report of the Select Committee appointed by Parliament to examine into Its merits, but also on its peculiar suitableness to several of the gradients to be encountered on the line, its superior speed, safety, and economy, and its absence from the possibilty of the occurrence of those frightful accidents by collision which have so frequently happened of late, and to which locomotive engines must ever he liable. The distatice between Perth Dynllaen and Kingstown is only about six and a-half miles farther than between Kingstown and Holyhead ; but in consequence of the position of the latter place, being two or three points to leeward of the acknowledged prevailing gales of St. George's Channel, a shorter passage can be made on an average throughout the year from Perth Dynllaen. This is con firmed by Captain Beaufort, as referred to in the master:y report of Sir John Rennie on the subject ; in which, afer going into details (coinciding in every material point with the opinions cf Mr. Page and others), Sir John thus concludes with a general summary of the case in reference .to Porth Dynllaen:—" That it is two points farther to windward than Holyhead, and, to use the expressive words of Captain Beaufort, ' has a fair wind both ways, to and from Kings town.' This is particularly important, because it enables the pea sage to 1 e made in equal, if not less time than from Holyhead, although the distance is rather greater ; and It is not less important to maintain the communication between the two countries during the winter season with as much speed and as little interruption as Possible." Taking this project in a remunerative point of view, we have to bear in mind not only - the great amount of traffic which it is certain to command, when the entire line Is completed, and the journey be ween the two capitals can be accomplished in twelve hours (thus ensuring much of the Irish, American, and West Indian trade). but also with other railways now in progress ; the vast mercantile traffic it must bring, from its opening the most convenient outlet for the wealthy mineral and agricultural productions of the counties of Caernarvon, Merioneth, Montgomery, and Denbigh. The extensive and apparently inexhaustible quarries of Caernar von, Bangor, Ffestinio g , &c., will supply all th e Mi dland Counties of England with slate, &c., at a much less cost than at present ; and the carriage of the important articles of lime, coal, and colo nial produce to Wales, will also form an important source of revenue. Another very important consideration presents itself in the cer tainty of this line being adopted for the transmission of the mails, affording, as it assuredly will, ample facility for the dispatch of let ters frem either metropolis, and the return of answers within twenty-six hours. Lower will he applied for in the Act —and in the meantime is given to the Committee of Management —to increase the capital, if necessary, to alter or abandon any part of the line, to make branch lines, to enter into arrangements with any other company or corn pa nies, and generally to manage the affairs of the Company. In the allotment of shares, preference will be given to landholders and others locally interested. The subscribers will he held liable only for the amount of their first deposit, until an Act of Parliament be obtains ', and afterwards only to the ante ;nt of their subscrip tions; and power will he applied fo , in the Bill to allow interest :it the rate of 4/. per cent. per annum, on all calls, from the passing of the Act until the opening of the line.

SECRETARY—WiIIiam Ranyard, Esq. - - - - --- The first object of this line is to connect the town of Birmingham, Coventry, and Leicester, with the eastern roast by the nearest route, and to supply an Important link of communication between the town of. Spalding and the eastern coast with the Western and Midland districts. Commencing at the Spalding station of the Norwich, Dereham, Lynn, and Holbeach Railways, the line will proceed by Bourn, Witham, Castle Bytham, South Wytham, and Wymondham, to a point on the Syston and Peterborough line of railway near Melton- Mowbray, thus forming, by the Syston and Peterborough and Mid land Counties Railway, an almost direct route to Leicester, and thence to Coventry and Birmingham by the proposed Coventry, Nuneaton, Leicester, and Birmingham Railway. The projected line will form the most direct communication be tween the eastern and midlind districts of the kingdom, and will, by means of the proposed lines across the county of Leicester, via Bur ton-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, Norfolk, Shropshire, and North Wales, nearer to each other by many miles than any other line of retinal, It will form, with otheected railways, an almost direct line across the kingdom, from Yarinouth, via Norwich, on the east, to Aberystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west. The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There is notunnel ling, cutting, or embanking of any importance necessary; the line from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve miles, is very level, and may be constructed at a small cost. It will secure the advantages of railway communication to a tract of country at present destitute of this accommodation, besides open ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of the means of transit. The central midland districts have felt greatly the want of direct communication with the coast; and this line will at once supply the deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire. It will afford a transit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei cestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon supply from the north at high prices: it will also secure the advan tages of an unlimited supply of lime from the Leicestershire works, to the agricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only supplied at very high rates; and, in return traffic, the midland dis tricts will otAain the advantage of a direct transit for the stock and agricultural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk. Several proposed lines of railway converge at Spalding, which is the nearest point on the eastern coast for the midland counties, and connected by the River Welland with the German Ocean. The proposed capital will be sufficient for the construction of the necessary works and every subsequent expense ; and the income derivable from the traffie in passengers between Birmingham, Co ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston, the trans port of corn, cattle, and other produce of .the great agricultural districts through which the line passes to the principal consuming districts, and of coals, lime, and staple commodities for the inland districts, will be sufficiently ample to warrant the outlay. The Parliamentary surveys have been commenced, and are now in active progress, and contracts have been entered into which en sure sufficient time for compliance with the standing orders. Forms of application for shares, plans, and prospectuses may be had of the Solicitors ; also at the offices of the Company, 4, Tra falgar-square, Charing. cross, where applications tor shares, accom panied by respectable references, my be addressed to the Provi sional Committee.
