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 straight line from Rugby to 3taceleslield, as an increased expenditure of 200,000/. or 300,000/..judielously 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 snore 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 fYom 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 the choice 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 be 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 hue 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, (Import, 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, Ashboarne, 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 capital, and 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. The shareholders in the Oxford, Southampton, Gosport, and Ports mouth, in the London ant Birmingham, and in the Manchester and Birmingham Railways, will have a preference in the allotment of the shares. 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 41. per cent. Interest in all calls.

This Company was constituted on the 28th of August, 1A45, according "to an Acte de Societe, passed before M Baudier, Notary at Paris. Its object is the construction of one of tile 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 nicatien 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 successffil 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 2,400,000/.), 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 20/. each, upon which a deposit of is to be paid on allotment. One month's pre vious notice will be given of all subsequent instalments, which are not to exceed 21. 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, Basinghall-street, London ; to the Solicitors ; or to the following Brokers and Aonts : London—Messrs.

Railway is projected for the ptirpose of uniting the Rhondda and Ely tallies, with the South Wales Railway, at a few miles dis tance from litift of Cardiff; and to open a new mineral district, one of the richest and means o f in South Wales, which is at present without the means of tranalt for its immense and 'minable products.

Parratt and Walmsley, Palace- yard, Westminster While two gigantic projects are struggling forviCtory, which, if obtained, would inevitably prove ffilitleSs,`the dense and wealthy population between LiliColti 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 coln (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 le 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 Gaiesborough, where it will cross the Trent, and thence to Haxey-gate, whence a branch will issue to DonCester. 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 Elteoar and Silkstone—a species not inferior to that Of Du , ham and Sunderland—as well as with the limestone quarries at Yrarrnsworth, so valuable for building purposes. Proceeding to Thorne, the line readhes inaith, 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 Miter% 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 aired to Leeds. By this means the whole of the mantlfachiring 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 Leeda ; Lincoln and Selby ; York and Selby; add %IA and The gradients throughout the lint Ai e i 4 ftiVOurable, that none exceed 15% feet in the mile, an itistaitce unparalleled, if the length of it be taken into consideration.

Weymouth—George Arden, Esq. Bridport—E. Nicholetts, Esq. Sidmouth—Edwin Church Everitt, Esq. This railway is intended to commence at the east part of the city of Exeter, neat St. Sidwells, 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 com munication franc Doier 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. Ili 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 popUlotts and important ((Ain* and fashionable watering places which are situated on and near that nett Of the Coast which this Railway is particu larly meant to accommodatel Whilst, M the same time, the Agri ctrl ittali Manufacturing, and ComnlerOittl Interests of this part of the Kingdotti hate been equally studied.

The great importance of this railway may be further estimated from a eorialdefation of the fact that the local population which would be benefited by its doillitriletitlii exceeds two hundred thousand persons. And also that Weymouth, which will be one Of the tettilini of the line, is about to become a great National Harbour of Refuge and racket-statiOn, by the construction of a breakwater in Portland Roads, iii adeotdatice with the recommendation of the Government Commissioners, for Which porpote a grant was made during the last session of Parliament for commencing the riot - kit.

This Company Is formed to . supply the valuable island of Trinidad with the advantages of railway communication. o part of the British dottinions 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 s evere c h ec k , i n com mon with the other colonies, though its producti on was not di m i n i s h e d in the same pro portion. The fertility of its soil and the high wages of labour, have since that period attracted emigrants from all parts, an d es p ecially from the other West India I s l an d s — so t h a t cu ltivation has been gradually restored, as will he seen b y the official statement of expo rt s And, according to the census lat e l y t a k en , th e p o pulation appears to have increased in the same period fifty per cent. As the arrangements now ma d e for encourag ing i mm i g ration pro mise to bring a large accessi o n o f l a b our i n t o the colony, so there is every probability that its p ro d uct i on w ill be progressively aug mented. It may he doubled w ith ou t an y a ddition to the existing establishments: and it is cap a bl e o f i n d e fi n ite extension, there being still in the possession of the Cr own 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 agriculture, there would of course be a corresponding increase ol s traffic. In forming a system of railway communications which will snit 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 hat been submitted to the Secretary of State for the Colonies ; and, alth ou gh no c o nclusile arrangement can be made without the assent of th e L eg i s l a tiVe Council of the isla nd, Lord Stanley has intimated th a t he is willing to give every en couragement he can to the proposed Undertaking, cons istent ly with his duty of watching over the interests of the colorip and that he Will recommend the subject to the favourable consideration Of the Local Government." Under this recommendation it is expected that a great. part of the land, as well as all the timber, which may be require d for the con struction of the railways, and the works connected therewith, will he obtained gratultoutly from the Crown and it is also confidently be lieved that individual proprietors will in like ntatittef grant the land for the lines that may intersect their estates. The precise course of thee lines will depend; in some degree, upon this encouragement. It is further anticipated that liberal grants of Crown lands, contiguotis to the railways, will be made in connexion with their progressive extension. Thete concessions, while justly made in consideration of important public advantages, Will be of great value to the Company, both im mediately and prospectively. As the Company will bd able to conduct the trans even one-fourthport of produce, of the present expense (Which appears to be from three to four and the conveyance of passengers, at one,third, or , 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 to traverse, as Well as any increase which may arise. It appears that a single line, with passing places, Sufficient to cc conittiodak four.tifths 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 reventle the ProVisional Com mittee are satisfied that it will yield a large return. It is proposed that the trlgirleer of the Company shall proceed fottlivtith to Trinidad, accompanied by an adequate number of Sur veyors, for the purpose of surveying the intended lines ; and that no plan shall be finally adopted until he makes a detailed report. He will be put in communication with an innuential and intelligent Committee in the eoluny, who will afford the Most cordial co.opera, tion and support. the Provisional Cpm- Provision will be made in t he Act co nstituting the Company for limiting the responsibility of th e Shareholders to the amount of their ea rm ddr a e nsisieedxed, and for copies of the to respective Subscriptiont , A.ppii prmittee, ospectus tl andiek n e S i shares, attiiivid ie amap, c l hn the Chambers, f r o 3 Old Jewry, on or b e f o r e Mo n d a y , the 6th of October.

This 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 down, 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 great as,. tram 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 locomotive 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 IA less than 200,000, and to give some 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 100,000/. ; under these circumstances, no doubt can 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, Brentford, Hounslow, and Great Western Junc tion Company—a title which the Provisional Committee have 'upon further consideration, altered to the preseut designation, in order to distinguish 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 mate, 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 ofClare, Galway, Mayo, add Sligo, terminating at Sligo, by a junction with the Sligo and Ennis killen Railway, and accommodating on its route the important cities aryl towns of Limerick, Ennis, Gort, Loughrea, Athenry.

This line, communicating with 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 from the fact of upwards of five hundred fairs being held sally in its immediate vicinity, among them, the fair of Rallinasioc, a knowledged the greatest for sheep and cattle In the British islands. It has been ascertained that the country presents great engineeriTlX: 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.

This hnpediment has now been overcome, and by a proposed Junc tion with the Central Terminus and the Thames Embankment Rail- , way, parties travelling by this line will be enabled to proceed directly to the heart of the metropolls,; and by the united Railways, which will ramify front this point, to ahnost.every part of the country without interruption. By the intended Junction, also, with the Great Western hallway. at or near West Drayton, and by the intersection of the Birmingham Railway at Yensington,•these important lines will be supplied with • direct access to the Central Terminus, and thence to the City, or to the Southern and Eastern Lines. e- - - -2
