George Smith, Esq., Derby Newcastle-under-Lyre Stafford Ashboume PARLIAMENTARY AGENTS—Messrs. Dorrington, Hayward, Bill combe, and Co., 16, Parliament-street The national object of this undertaking is to create a direct and united communication between the eastern and western parts of the kingdom. On reference to a railway map of England, it will at once be seen that Stafford and Crewe, on the Grand Junction and Derby, and Belper, on the Midland Railway, are the centres to which a great number of lines of railway, either already constructed or projected, converge ; and between these four points no railway exists. The West Midland Railway proposes to mute these points in the following way :—By commencing one of its arms at Crewe station, on the Grand Junction Railway, which will run through or near Newcastle-under -Lyre, Bursham, Stoke-upon-Trent, Lane End, and Cheadle, to Uttoxeter, where its other arm from Stafford will meet it and proceed thence, by Ashbourne to a point near the Belper station on the Midland Railway, where it will take advantage of the pro posed Derby and Gainsborough, Nottingham and Mansfield, and Boston, Newark, and Sheffield' Railways ; thus opening a direct com munication between Holyhead and other parts of North Wales, Cheshire, Staffordshire, and Shropshire; en the one hand, and Sheffield, Retford, Mansfield, Nottingham, Newark, Norwich, and the ports of Gainsborough, Grimsby, Boston, Spalding, Lynn and Yarmouth, on the other. This line will aceoMtnodate a very considerable portion of the traffic proceeding from the west coast of Scotland, Cumberland, and Lanca shire, into Lincolnshire and the south-eastern parts of the kingdom, and by that portion of the line which is proposed to run between Belper and Statierd, and the whole of the traffic from the east coast of Scotland, Northumberland, Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, and other populous northern counties passing to the west and south west, together with the opulent mineral districts of South Wales, will be effectually served. Passing as this line will do, through a densely-populated and ex clusive manufacturing district, it must be viewed, even in its local character, as one of vast importance. The mere enumeration of the towns affected 4" it would suffice to show that the traffic over it will be immense ; but, in addition to this, when credit is taken for the thorough traffic passing diagonally over the line from south-east to north-west, and from north-east to south-west, as well as for the corn and other aaricultural produce from the eastern totinties to the manufacturing districts • and a return carriage of manufactnr, d goods, slates firm North Waits, salt from Cheshire, earthenware from Stafforashire, and iron from Shropshire, for the consumption of the midland counties as well as for export from the eastern ports of Hull, Grimsby, Boston, Spalding, &c., some adequate idea May be farmed of the advantages which the complc inn of this eomprehengive scheme will naturally develop. All these objects have been deeply and seriously considered, and deemed of such para mount importance to local interests, that the fulleat and most in fluential suppert and co-operation have been obtained to effectually carry out and insure the various objects of this undertaking. Surveys of the district have been made with much care, and the result is highly favourable in an engineering point of view. The Committee in the allotment of shares will give a preference to partfeertbeiallyitatorested, and in all cases satisfactory reference will be required to some person of known respectability. Power will be taken in the act to allow interest, at the rate of 4L per cent. per annum, on the deposits, as well as on all future calls, from the date of each payment, till the opening of the whole line, or until a dividend be declared ; and the liability of subscribers will be limited by the Act of Parliament to the amount of their respective shares. The shares and all payments made thereon will be forfeited with out notice, should the holders thereof not sign the Subscribers' Agree ment and Parliamentary Contract as soon as required.

The object of this line is to make a short and direct communication between the populous manufacturing and iron and coal districts of Bradford, Cleckheaton, Heckmondwike, Batley, Dewsbury, Barns ley, and Sheffield, with the wool and agricultural districts of Lei cestershire, Derbyshire, Doncaster, Galusborough, Lincoln, &c., and the port of Boston. The line will form a junction with the West Yorkshire, the Leeds and Dewsbury, and the Manchester and Leeds Railways, at or near Dewsbury; and thence proceed by Darton to Barnsley, and Wombwell, to or near to Wath-upon-Dearne, near Swinton ; where it will join the North Midland Railway, and also meet the proposed r i an cation by the mY existing line to Doncaster, Ti try a lints i nsbeoa l r ° n ul i h t , t and eLincolnpertof Boston and the ;d forma south; and by the projected H u ll and Barnsley Junction Railway; communication also form a direct line to Hull, and by the Leeds and Thirsk Railway, a direct line to the nortk. The line will also be continued from Barnsley by T an kersley and Chapeltown to Sheffield. A branch will run to the various Ironworks and Colliery Rail ways, near Wentworth ; and another branch will run to the Silk stone Colliery Railways. A direct line of communication will thus be formed between the imrortant manufacturing places of Bradford, Bierley, Cleckheaton, Gomersahl, Heckmondwike, Liversedge, Batley, Dewsbury, Ossett, Thornhill, Barton, Barnsley, Ardsley, and Wombwell, to Wath upon-Dearne, Doncaster, Lincolnshire, the port of Boston, and the south, and also to Sheffield ; affording the best possible accommoda tion to the rich iron and coal districts of Silkstone, Worsborough,. Tankersley, Chapeltown, and Sheffield; whilst the wools and raw materials ased in the manufactures at Bradford, Pudsey, Earlsheaton, Cleckheaton, Batley, Heckmondwike, Dewsbury, and Barnsley, as well as corn and cattle, will be received by the shortest and most di rect line of transit from Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, and the southern parts which supply these commodities, in exchange for the manufactures, coals, and minerals of those districts. It must be evident to every one, on looking at the map, that this line is imperatively called for, as up to this period the only rail way communication for the supply of wool and other goods, and the conveyance of passengers to Dewsbury, Ileckmondwike, Batley, Cleckheaton, Bradford, and the intermediate places (each containing a numerous manufacturing population), has been the North Midland line by Nonnanton — a very circuitous ro ute, as appears by the fol lowing statement of distances of those places : R e lative distances from Bradford and Dewsbury to Barnsley and Sheffield, by the present route, and the proposed line : Miles.

From Dewsbury by the present route Sheffield is distant 40 miles ; by the proposed line it will be 21,—0r a saving of 19 miles. The same observations, as to saying of distance, apply to London and all intermediate places ; and it is important to observe that either by the present North Alidiand line, or by the projected London and York Railway, this proposed line will be the shortest and most direct route from Bradford, Dewsbury, &c., to London. It may also be noticed, that from Swinton to Leeds by this project and the. Leeds and Dewsbury line, the distance is much less than by way of Normanton. The following table, taken from the Parliamentary Census of 1841, will give some idea of the populous Districts through which the line passes !

This line will diverge from the line of the Great Eastern and Western Railway,. near Worcester, and proceeding by Bran yard, will end at Leominster, at which point it will unite with the proposed lines connecting Ilereford and Shrewsbury with North Wales. The communication by railway between these important towns and the continuous hop and eider districts has been entirely left unprovided for by existing arrangements, and this line is brought forward under the auspices of the Great Eastern and Western Railway Company, on the strong representations and request of a large and most influential body of the landed gentry of the neigh bourhood. The object proposed is to make a direct communisation between Leominster, Bromyard, and Worcester, which latter town has always been the natural market for the produce of these districts, end to af ford the inhabitants the most direct communication with London, as compared with other lines, by upwards of 30 miles. No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the act is ob tained, and power will be applied for to allow Interest at 41. per cent. on all calls from the time of their respective payments, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscrip tions.

Rice and Thomas Ilopklns, and John Belcher, Esq. SECRETARY. This Csmpany is formed for making a railway from Liverpool to Derby, and will, in conjunction with the Manchester and Rugby Direct, and London and Birmingham Railways, form the nearest route from Liverpool to London. It will commence at Liverpool, and proceed along the Liverpool and Manchester Railway to within a short distance of the Whiston Inclined Plane, and thence branch off, in a south-easterly direction, through Warrington, Knutsford, and Congleton to Leek (there joining the Manchester and Rugby Rail way), and from thence through Ashbourne to Derby. The whole length of the proposed line will be about sixty-six miles. It will be seen by reference to the map that this important line of railway will form the shortest route from'Liverpool to London, and effect a direct chain of communication between Liverpool and Derby, and will thence, by means of the Midlands and other railways, open an unin terrupted route to the more eastern counties, and afford a complete midland communication between the eastern and western parts of the kingdom and the important intermediate manufacturing districts. The most important feature in this railway is that it forms the shortest road from Liverpool to London. The distance by it, with the Manchester and Rugby, and London and Birmingham, will he only lid miles, whereas by the present route it is 210 miles, and by the Trent Valley Railway 200% miles ; effecting a saving of 22 miles in one instance, and 1231 miles in the other. And as regards Liverpool and Derby, the whole distance between Liverpool and Derby will be reduced by this line to about 74 miles, thus decreasing the distance by any present existing railway, at least 46 miles; an advantage which carries in itself the conviction of the necessity there is for the proposed railway, in order to connect more immediately two such Important towns, especially when these towns are but the Mei, as it were, for other railways from still more distant localities, as before adverted to. The distance also from Manchester to Leek (where the proposed railway will unite with the Manchester and Rugby Direct Railway) will be about 30 miles, and from Leek to Derby about 2631 miles, making the whole distance from Manchester to Derbyent communi only 66% miles ; and thus diminishing the distance by any pres cation between those important towns by about 28 miles, an object most desirable to be attained, and of itself quite sufficient to recom mend a line of railway embracing such beneficial results. But great as these results most certainly will be, they are far out weighed by the very important consideration that, in conjunction with the Manchester and Rugby Direct Railway, it will also be the most direct route from Liverpool to London. The distance from Liverpool to Leek the proposed point of junc tion with the Manchester and Rugby Direct Railway) is 47% miles; from Leek to Rugby, according to the line as proposed by the Man chester and Rugby Direct Railway, 58 miles, and from Rugby to London 83 miles ; thus making the whole distance from Liverpool to London HON miles, instead of 210, by the present route. With regard to the traffic and other details connected with the working of the line, it seems only necessary to revert to the great importance of the towns proposed to be brought into communication with each other, in order to convince the minds of all that the source of revenue thus derived will be immense. There are no engineering difficulties conneeted with the forming of the line. The deeds will provide that no call shall be made en the share holders byon t depost now paid until the .A. of Parliament is obtained, e and d pow he er will i be taken in the A ct to c alow 4/. per cent interest on all calls.

This railway Is intended to commence at the terminus of and unite with the Nottingham and Lincoln Railway, at Lincoln, and to proceed by or near Wragby and Market Baleen to Great Grimsby - , with a branch from or near Market Raisen to Louth, and a branch from the main line near to and through Wragby to Iforncastle. The length of the main line from Lincoln to Grimsby will be about 32 miles, the branch to Louth about 10 miles, and the branch to Horacastle about 14 miles--together 56 miles. The advantages of the line will be self-evident to those acquainted with the locality ; amongst other benefits, it may be observed, that this line will form a direct and speedy communication between the port of Great Grimsby and the midland and western counties, as well as the metropolis ; and the port of Great Grimsby (which may now be looked upon as the future Liverpool of the Humber) is admitted by to Derby,and maritime and practical men to be the best situated northern port of England for the whole of the markets of the continental Europe. A glance at the map of Europe will show its superior local advantages. direct , er i c , l e i k at e n s li t s e e r , , traffic as well as the transmission of graft!, cattle, bolter, wool, ti m ., The completion of this undertaking will facilitate a passenger f b r e o r m , s t t o h n e e , 1 great inr tonrnsu o r e f , Is n d i n n o f t n l g i e b r a n i g o , o , Nottingham, Manchester, Liverpool, and the intermediate towns and C ls oN a-n et a rtr m y manufacturing distrlcte, and will open the coal-fields of Nottingham communication between the midland and western counties and the shire, Leicestershire, and Derbyshire, to Lincolnshire, and a port of Great Grimsby for ex- ortation and importation to and fl'om the markets of continental Europe. It will likewise render easy of access that ancient and now much-frequented and improving sea bathing place Clcethorpes, to and from which place a large amount of passenger traffic may be relied on, being within the distance of two miles from the proposed terminus at Great Grimsby. The county of Lincoln abounds in agricultural productions, whilst it is believed an inadequate recompense has hitherto accrued to those engaged therein, by reason of which both produce and land have been depreciated in value, but now important advantages will present themselves to both the agricultural and mercantile in terest. The gradients of the line are exceedingly f avou rable, and the expense of construction will be unusually low; the promoters have therefore every reason to anticipate a most satisfactory return for the capital to be invested. . l in- The plan of this Company also comp rises one of g reat nations terest, when viewed in connexion wills other improvementshab our o f refuge of the r Port of Great Grimsby , and, the formation of a for the German and Baltic ems; mt o have much pleasure in announ Th e Committee of Nfanagem, . his undertak , -in , - has the cordial approval and big to the public that t • it -a Company. support of the Midiand Be e y , be made for power to allow interest at the rate of Application will . and calls paid up, and for restricting on all deposits 4/. per cent. lders to the amount of their respective shares, liability of sharebo , tl will, as far ornamental propert3 on re line as possible, be re- All spected. parties o f shares will be made ill favour of locally A reservation interested or otherwise.

The Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway is a direct line from London to Manchester, coming from London to Rugby, along the London and Birmingham line, and proceeding from Rugby to Hinck ley through Market-Bosworth and Ashby-de-la-Zouch, to Derby, thence to Ashbourne, by Leek to Macclesfield, and along the Mac clesfield and Stockport, and Stockport and Manchester Railways, into Manchester. A branch to Buxton is in contemplation. The principle of this railway is to obtain a direct through line be tween some of the most import ant districts in the kingdom with the least possible amount of new railway, and, consequently, the smallest expenditure of capital. It will also establish the shortest direct communication between Derby and London, Sheffield and London, and between all the towns on the North Midland Railway and London. The Manchester, Derby, and Rugby Railway, will open a direct communication between Manchester and Derby, and will consider ably shorten the distance between Manchester and Nottingham and Manchester and Leicester. The line from Derby to Rugby will establish the direct communi cation from that town to London, which has been so long considered desirable by the inhabitants. The same will apply to Sheffield, when the Sheffield and Chester field branch of the North Midland Railway is made. The Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway, in connexion with the Oxford and Rugby, and Oxford, Southampton, aid Gosport Rail way, forms a direct Manchester and Southampton line. THE GEEAT ADVANTAGES Of the Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway, ever the other pro jects into Manchester, among oth.rs, are— First. That there are only seventy-five miles of railway to be made in place of one hundred and eighty-nine. tiecOnd. That it is a more direct line from London to Manohester thati even the proposed direct lilies. Third. That it interferes with no existing railway property or vested interests. Fottrth. That it passes through a District rich in manufactures, agrietiltUte, citid minerals, but Which—more especially as regards its agricultural produce, and a convenient system of intercommunica tion for the conveyance cf that agricultural produce, to supply the large mannfactaring towns in the vicinity—has been hitherto left to tally without railway cotrmunication. Fifth. That it passes through the towns in its route, instead of avoiding them. Sixth. That the whole line of railway from Rugby I. Manchester will be completed and in working order within ten mouths from the passing of the Act of Parliament. Seventh. That the maps, plans, estimates, and other documents required by the standing orders of Parliament will be lodged with the parish clerks, the clerks of the peace for the counties, and the Parliamentary offices, on the 10th of November next, being twenty days within the time required by the regulations of Parliament. In the allotment of shares a preference will be given, to the ex tent of 10,000 shares, to the holders of stock in the London and Bir mingham Railway ; also, of 2,000 shams to the shareholders in the Oxford, Southampton, and Gosport Railway Company ; of 1,000 shares to the Oxford and Rugby Railway Company ; and 2,000 shares to the Manchester and Birmingham Railway Company.
