Capital 200,0001., in 8,1:00 Shares of 251. each. Deposit 21. 10s. per Share. (Provisionally Registered.) This line will commence at the station of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway, at Dudley, and run into the line of the Grand Junction Company near to Birmingham. It will traverse or pass in the Immediate vicinity of the following populous manu facturing towns and places, viz., Great Bridge, Swan Village, Old bury, West Bromwich, Randsworth, and Smetliwick, and In its - course it evil afford railway accommodation to a manufacturing and .mining population of upwama of a quarter of a million. The names of the places of the proposed termini, and the above indication of the course of the intended line, must abundantly sa tisfy every one that it presents the certainty of a lucrative traffic both in goods and in passengers. It is :tiniest unnecessary to speak further of so plain a necessity as that of railway accommodation for such a district. The wonder would be that the propose ad not been es/a-- 10 1 Minh: d long belbra, were it not for one very obvious and very poten tial reason lo which it is owing that thi s rich district has hitherto been suffered to remain destitpte of railway accommodation. The district has been up m this time deprived of the laents of railway means- of transit because it .w.is one or of the Bit minginun Canal cuier,:itiy ; ant IL is to overet,me • the depressing iniinence - of such a destitution that the present plan has been pro jected. _ _ The intended line will not interfere with any existing Tine of railway, but it will materially extend the usefulness of the several lines about to be connected with Dudley, and -in particular that great mining district trunk line, the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolver hampton Railway, as also the Shrewsbury and South Staffordshire Junction; besides, it will afford to the populous; districts around Dudley and Birmingham the dirict benefits of fair and liberal com petition in pass ginger conveyance and in the transit of their industrial products to their tr;ncipal market. The number of omnibuses, coaches, and swift canal packet-boats continually travelling between the termini, aftbrd the strongc st as surancc of the prospect of a lar e pueseuger traffic : while the bulky nature and vast extent of the mining and m , nniacturing produce of this well-known district equally vouch for that In goods; and the whole leaves no doubt but that the financial returns of such an un dertaking must yield an ample remuneration fur the capital ex pended. In an engineering point of view, it has been ascertained, by careful surveys, that the line is highly favourable, and presents not the slightest difficulty, so that altogether there is probably no line of rail way now before the public so much entitled in every way to the favourable consideration of the parties locally interested, or of capitalists in general. The former have aireaoy evinced the warmest interest in the proposed line ; and indeed it is mainly owing to urgent local suggestions that the projected railway has been under taken. _ . . No fluffier call (beyond the deposit) will be made until the Act shall be obtained ; and power will be applied for in such Act to allow riatertst at fonr per cent. per annum on the deposits and calls from the date of cacti payment until the opening of the line.

Thb line will pass in a direct course from Tunbridge, via Paddock ' Woos/ (thus connecting itself with Maidstone) through the parishes of B renchley, Horsmonden, Goudhurst, Cranbrook, Benenden, Hawl thurst, Sandhurst, Rolvenden, Newenden, Northiarn, Peas ' mars's, Beckley, Iden, and Playden, to the town and harbour of Rye, and it will embrace a lar le extent of adjacent country, at pre sent 'luprovided with, and much requiring, the admitted advantages of ra ilway transit. Tse length of the line will ho about 25 miles—a great portion of it will pass through a level country, and the remaining part is free from any material engineering difficulty, or works likely to require any serious outlay, and it Is not expected to be necessary to interfere with any residences er ornamental property. Tire swing of distance to Rye, and all the other places embraced by 'this line,wlll be considerable. The capital required is estimated not to exceed 500,000/. During the last session of Parliament application was made for a similar hue, partially embracing the same country, when It was shown in detail by evidence produced before the Committee, that the contemplated traffic, after deducting 401. per cent. for working ex pensee would leave a large per centage upon the invested capital. Thatline was rejected on the ground that the best direction had not been selected, but with an intimation that the port of Rye was en titled to a direct railway communication with the interior of the country, in the best direction towards London. The preseut scheme has Laren based upon this intimation, taking advantage of the merits and defects which appeared upon that investigation; and as it em braces a more ropulous and productive country, and passes in a more direct line to London, and will have the benefit of better access to other and more numerous lines, the sources of traffic are consider ably increased, and there is every reasop to believe, from what passed during the last session, that the present plan will be favourably enter tained by the Legislature. She chief object is to open the port of Rye to the NIl benefit of a railway communication, through a populous and productive district, in the direction of London, to the best print at which it can avail itself of the existing and contemplated lines. The imports of Rye, particularly coals, with lime and other ma nures, are of great importance to the country through which this line will pass, and a cheaper and better mode of transit will much increase the demand for them, and give the opportunity of great improvement in the cultivation of the adjacent country. A railway through the heart of the chief hop district of the king dom, also producing corn, thither, and hop poles, and communicating at its terminus with a great part of the important cattle district of Romney Marsh, must be a public advantage. The port of Rye Is admitted to be the hest outlet and quickest route to Paris and to other parts of the Continent, and there can be no doubt if a direct railway should he made to Rye, with a moderate improve ment In the harbour, that it would be much adopted, particularly as a national and commercial coinmuMeation with France, and by per sons travelling on business.

SE , OftETAßY—Charliss Martin, FN. _ _ This Company has been formed for the purpose of constructing a line in coutinuAon of the South-Eastern Railway at Reigate, whereby a dir. et junction will be effected between the whole of the soutli-easterti coast, including the port end harbour of Dover and the several port • and towns of Sonthamptcu Carport, Portsmouth, and Bristol.; and, tr., tatatot of the Dr.sfel and Eftailogintm Railway, with Gloucc*ter, Wm . -ester, Dirmingliam, Manchester, Liverpool, and the north of England. Prom its proximity to the Coxtinent, the port of Dover will alwaya be the most accessible point of the English coast ; an expeditious communication therefore between that and tke other ports, harbours, and inlalieltowns of the United Kingdom, must necessarily be regarded as a great national advantage. Dover is at present the ele..ef port of embarkation for Calais, Boulogne, Ostend, and other continental towns, and the vast numbers already resorting there both on business and poseurs, will be im measurably I.:creased when the railways of France, Belgium, Hol land, and Germany are fully brought into operation. Iti addition to which, the Government Commissioners having selected Dover as a Harbour of Refuge, and recommended the outlay there 1,500,0001 ., It cannot fail of becoming a place of the greatest resort for the shipping and commercial interests of the cons try, and perhaps the meet important town on the south ern coast. • _ In every point of view, therefore, whether for national security, or for travelling excursions, or the, invaluable interests of cur shipping and commerce, the paramount importance of a cheaper, more com - e• Mont, and accelerated intercourse between tt,is great port and all parts of the kingdom, must be sufliciently,obrious. This the pre meters fully anticiFate will, be attained by the proposed railway, which will form a portion of a grand trunk line, completing tke Chain of railway communication rpen the narrow gauge between the south-eastern coast, anti Bristol and the western, northern, and mid land counties. The lice will continence at the terminus of the South-Eastern Rail way at Reigate, proceed thence by Dorking, Godalmhag, Farnham, and Odiham to the-Itasings:oke station, en the S.outh-Western Rail way. It will then proceed by Anloyer towards Devizes, TrOlV bridge, and Bradford, with a branch to Bath, and pursuing its course through the Somersetshlre coal-fleld, throwing off a branch towards Radstock into the heart of the collieries, tormiucte in a junction with the Bristol and Birmingham Railway at Bristol. lsy its Callt9o through Dorking, Godalming, Farnham, and Odi ham, it will supply the railway accommodation so much required by those towns, and connect the rich and fertile hop districts of Surrey, Kent, and South Hants, and afford the means efeonveyance e their produce to the great Hop-fair at Vreyhill. By its junction with the contemplated Reading, Guildford, and ReigatteßailwaT," it will •ifford to the inhabitants of Reading, Oxford, , and to the midland counties generally, the best and shortest route to the Continent, as well as to Worthing, lla-stings, Bri:liton, and the other watering-places in Sussex and Kent ; and a vast inerease of visitors will undoubtedly be attracted to those places fl•om the interior of England by the accommodation and facilities for travelling which will' Ae accomplished by this and the proposed railway from Reading. By its intersection of the South-Western Railway at Basingstoke, and of the proposed Mancheater and Southampton hallway further west, the present line will connect Dower towards the south, with Southampton (the packet station for the East and West Indies, &c.), Gosport, and f ortsmoath, and towards the north, with Cheltenham, Gloucester, Worcester, Birmingham, Manchester, and Liverpool, :Ilse with Shrewsbury, Chester, and lielyhead, and in fact with the whole Of North and South Wales. At Basingstoke, also, this ins will join the proposed London, Salis bury, and Yeovil Railway, and throw open to Dover and the south eastern counties the populous awl wealthy cities of Salisbury and Exeter, the rich agricultural counties of Wilts, Dorset, Somerset, and Devon, the p .rts of Plymouth, Devonport, and Falmouth, and the mineral regions of Cornwall. To Devizes,'Trowbridge, Bradford, and Bath, and the other towns in the vicinity of its course, the benefit which this line will confer czariot to too highly estimated; to the coal districts of Somerset shire it will open large and constant markets both in Bristol and to the south and east, while to the inhabitants of Bristol especially, con necting Its channel with the Straits of Dover and the Downs, pro viding a perfect Buis for telegraphic communication, and securing to them the whole of the trade between the south-east of England and the west and south of Ireland, it seems difficult, considering the enor mous traffic which must neceesarily few to that sity, to conceive a project mere deserving of their cordial support. In the memorable Parliamentary contest last session between two great rival companies, the Legislature for the first thus admitted that princip'e of competition with existing interests which was claimed by the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Company for the protection anti benefit of the punlic ; and it is with no fear of the resu't that the promoters of the present undertaking invite attention to one distinguishing feature it contains, viz., that by the construction of the line from nristel to Basingstoke,, the Noe Tunnel will be avoided, and a new and independent communication will he established between Bristol and London, by a shorter lice ou the narrow gauge than bythc devious course of the Great Western, inde pendently of all the ailvantacee of the proposed central station at Ilungerford-ba'ge, and the convenient access to the Thames both there and at Nine Elms, over the distant and Inconvenient station of thet , 1 l e(ii:geteht the s p t ro e ni p o,,i a ,4l P l ae i n i o d i‘isigutlo Ireton nearly 110 Company to hays the constructi on o f that rt and Dorking, for which plan s h ave b een depos i te d by the South Eastern Company)—the country t h rough wh i c h it passes does not present any engineering difficultiee inotaent, nor wil l an y resi dential or ornamental property b e i nterfered w ith e_xcept uuder an imperative nnecessity.ity. portion (tavreteimi I li z t e g this te ige A reserve of shares will be made for landowners on the line, and the Committee also retain to themselves the pon - cr to vary the course of the line with reference to any arrangements with extsting interests and projected Bees that may b a cons id ere d advantageous to the shareholders.

CARMARTHEN JUNCTION MINERAL RAILWAY AND HARBOUR IMPROVEMENT COMPANY.. The object of this undertaking is to fonn a direct communication between the important town of Carmarthen stud the rich minoral dis-. tricts in the south and east of the county, and to improve the naviga gallon only: river Towy by erecting a dock or shipring-place at or near Carmarthen. The projected line will join the Routh Wales, Welsh Midland, and Great North and South Waßs Railways at Carmarthen, and will be connected with the branch cf the Llanelly Railway already con structed to the Cross Hands on the Onset .3fountain. It will thus unite several important railways, and afford ready moans of supply ing coal and lime to very" extensive districts, the costs of conveying which will be less that the toll payable on the present roads. The southern terminus of the Great North and South Wales Rail way is at Carmarthen, and no provision Is mare by the promoters for any communication by it with the coal and lime fields. These pro ducts, before they are conveyed from Carmarthen, must drat be brought to that town. The South Wales end W-lsh Midland Railwa vs describe a consider abl, circuit In communicating with the heart of the mine; al districts. The distance from Carmarthen by each of these lines to the Great Mountain wll be about twenty-five miles ; the distance by the line now proposed will not exceed twelve. It is therefore evident that the immense traffic in coal and lime Letween Carmarthen and the mineral districts must be carried on by the intended railway. A branch from Carmarthen to the Towy at Blackpool will be about two miles long, and another branch in the Gwcndraeth Vale will be the same length ; thus making the whole length of the proposed rail way sixteon miles. T he line will follow the Vale of Towy as far as Cappehiewy, and then diverge, by way of Porthyrhyd and the Man sell's Arms, to the coal districts. In consequence of the peculiar features of the country, the pro posed lies can meet with opposition from no other scheme, as the hold chain of hills running from east to west to the south of the Towy are quite impracticable at all other' points between Llandilo and the sea. a distance of twenty-five miles. This line will follow the only valley intersecting the hills, which presents the most striking facilities for constructing a railway &one it, as none of the gradients will exceed 1 in 100, and there will be no occasion for any tunnelling. The capital reqnired to construct a railway and to effect the im provement of the river will be 140,000/. Calculations have been made of the tonnage carried along the pre sent roads, and an ample remuneratio n for th e c a pit a l i nves t e d would be secured even without increased traffic. The South Wales, Welsh Midland, and Great North And Smith Wales Railways radiate from Carmarthen to the west, north, and east of the county; and the latter line will open communication with the whole of Cardiganshire. All these extensive districts are now mainly supplied with coal and lime from the vicinity of Carmarthen. The traffic in these staple commodities is at present very consider able: t o t l i t e s of greatllm e thoroughfares ltas - e in one day Carmarthen. a. With the facility of conveyance afforded by railways, added to the large extent of country which will he opened by means of the lines alluded to, this traffic will be immensely increased. pae passed e The project was first mooted about ten years ago. A meeting was single as raten'anoyn as onel held et Carmarthen, attended by a large and influential body of gentry, landowners, and merchants. Resolutions were th e n unani mously adopted approving* of the scheme, pointing out its advantage to the minatory and its value as a safe investment. Surveys of the line were afterwards made, which proved that the gradients were easy, and that the couetry was free from engineering difficulties. Some objections, however, arose, which led to the temporary aban donment of the undertaking; these difficulties cannot again occur. A large body of influentia: p •rsons have already signified their appro bation of the scbeme. It will meet with the strenuous support of all the mineral interests in the localities referred to ; and the authori ties, merchants, and influentiel residents of Carmarthen. will afford every support to carry out an undertaking so beneficial to the inte rests of the town and neighbourhood. The Earl of Candor and the otter principal landowners on the pro nosed line have been consulted, and their consents and approbation have been obtained. The corporation of Carmarthen has just had a careful survey of the river made, with a view of eff.eting the improvements in its na vigation now proposed ; and the engineer employed has prepared an able report and supplied an estimate of the expense. It appears suf ficiently evident that, with the outlay of a comparatively small sum of money, Carmarthen may be rendered a safe port, easily accessible to ships of very considerable tonnage, even at neap tides. The great d, pth of water in Black Pool at ebb tide (24 feet) sop ntles all the reenisites of a wet dock. A railway from the town to , 11 it place or a cut to avoid the intermediate shoals and sinue-ities will remove all ditliCulty to the navig ••tion of the river, an 1 with either of these facilities a very large export trade will be insured in coal and other produce of the country. In effecting these improve ments due regard will in every instance be paid to the interests and wishes of the town. Should it be considered preferable to improve. the course of the river, the necessity for constructing the branch railway to Blaek Pool will be obviated, and the consequent outlay saved. Extensive ironworks are now at work In the Gwendraeth Vale, 11. now proposed, and others on a l arge scale are about to be erected in the Vale of Ammon. The sto res o f coal and lime are inexhaustible several important collieries h ave b een lately opened, and are now ready to pour their teemi ng wealth into the market, but a want of commu nication with the di s t ant districts of this and the adjoining counties nrevente the proprietors reaping the fruit of their enterprise. The forming a junction at C a rm a rth en w ith th e th ree great trunk lin es, will afford the accommodation so much desired Preparations have been made so as to insure compliance with the standing orders in time to apply for an Act in the ensuing SCREIIOI. The course to be adopted will depend upon the report of the Govern ment Commissioners. In order that every attention may he secured to local interests, an'angements are now being made to add the names of other gentle men of property in the county to the provisional committce.l The liability of the shareholders until the act is obtained will be • limited to the amount of deposits, and after incorporation to the amount of their subscriptions. • Power will be taken in the Bill to allow interest at V. per cent. per annum on all Deposits and Calls from the time of payment until the opening of the line. Prospectuses and Plans maybe obtained from, and applications for Shares to be made to the Solicitors cid Secretary, and the follow ing Brokers, Slessrs. Price and Brown, Change-alley, London. No application for Shares will be attended to unless with a satir factory reference. ZSTIMATI. An :nal Sale, Tons.

(alley Railway near Stafforl, and proceeding* thence in au easterly iirection, to pass through, or near to, Tixall, Haywood, Colwich, and 4.bbo , .t's Bromley, to the rapidly-increasing town of Burton-upon- Trent, where it will run into the Birmingham and Derby Railway, fanning the shortest and best practicable route from • Stafford to Derby. Leaving the Birmingham and Derby Railway at Burton upon-Trent, it will proceed along the valley of the Trent by Repton, Swarkestonc; and Shardlow, to the Midland Counties 'Railway at the point where that railway forms a junction with the Derby and Not tingham Railway ; and thus, by means of these and other railweys • in progress, forma cOmplete lino of railway communication between the central towns of Stafford, Derby, Nottingham, Lincoln, Leices -te,r., Peterborough, and Boston, on the eaAt, and Shrewsbury, Cites ter, and llcilyitead, North Wales, and Ireland, on the west. This railway will, therefore, form the only connecting link re quired in the great chain of railway communicatfou from east and west through the heart of the kingdwri, uniting the shores of the German Ocean on the cast with those of the Irish Sea or the west, and traversing in its course the rich agricultural districts of the eastern. midland, and western counties, an? accommodating the important, arid populous manufacturing towns of Stafford, Derby, Nottingham, Lei cester,. and Shrewsbury. But another most Important advantage that will result .from the formation of this line will consist in the inct of its affording, in connexion with the proposed South Union, or Manchester and Potteries Railway, by far the shortest and best route between Derby, Nottingham, Newark, Lincoln, Peterhorcanh, Leicester, and Loughborough, and the extensive and populous dis tricts of the Staffordshire Potteries, Macclesfield, Stockport, and Manchester. By the proposed line the distance between Nottingham and Derby and Manchester will be at least from 16 to 20 miles lose th:at by the present circuitous route bySheffield. The traffic on this line must necessarily be equal, If not superior, to that of any line in the district. Ths length of the line will be about 33 miles, through a country presenting no difficulties of mere than an ordinary kind for its con struction. The capital proposed to be raised is 600,0007., in shares of 20/. each, upon which a deposit of 21: 2s. per share must be paid upon the alionneht. No call will be made until the Act is obtained, and no subscriber will be liable beyond the amount of his deposit until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his subscription; and the usual power will be taken to allow interest at four per cent. from the time of payment upon each call until the opening of the line. The Subscribers' Agreement and the Parliamentary Contract must be executed when the hankers' receipts are exchanged for scrip cer tificates, of which 14 days' notice will be given ; and the deposits paid by any party making default in the execution of those deeds will be forfeited.
