LOCAL SOLICITORS. Messrs. Manners and Son, Grantham Messrs. Millington and Keswick, Boston. SicakrAsT—George Farrer, Esq. The object of this line of railway is to connect, by a direct route, the important town and seaport of Boston with the centre of Eng land, by way of Grantham and Melton Mowbray, where it will join the Syston and Peterborough branch of the Midland Counties Railway. It is unnecessary to enlarge upon the advantages which will arise from this railway, which passes through one of the richest and most fertile parts of England. The population is dense, and a glance at the snap will show that this line is well laid ont, net only for the- direct traffic from Leicester and the intermediate places to Boston, but also for the general traffic which will be brought to this line by the several railways which will be connected with it. By this railway, which will be about forty-four miles in length, and laid through a country nearly level, it is intended to pass by or near Swinlshead, Donington, Folkingham, Grantham, Stoke, Roch ford, and Melton Mowbray. It is evident that this line will be o great convenience and utility, by affording to a part of the country at present deprived of it the advantage of railway communication with the counties of Rutlandshire, Leicestershire, Northampton shire, Warwickshire, &c., and thus connecting the agricultural districts of Lincolnshire with the manufacturing parts of England, affording to the latter an easy and accessible means of export for their manufactures. In the allotment of shares, holders in the Midland Counties Rail way will receive a preference, and reservation will be made for the landed interests along the line, whose concurrence and assistance is fully relied on by the promoters, by whom most of the influential landholders have been canvassed ; and, in order to prevent unnes sary trouble, no other applications will be received except those wherein reference is made to a member of the Provisional Commit tee, to the Solicitors or Bankers, or the following Sharebrokers, from whom prospectuses and plans may be obtained : Messrs Sutton, Gribble, and Sutton, Royal Exchange Messrs.

SgMLETAIIT. , This Company 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 Liverphol 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 ,Congletolt 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 sixly-six miles. It will be } seen by reference to the map that this important line of railway will ;form the shOrtest route from7Liverpool 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 au 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 import tw ant intennediate manufacturing districts. The most important feature in this railway is that it forms the a saving of 22 miles is shortest road from Liverpool to Landon. The distance by it, with the Imanchester an d Rugby, and London and Birmingham, will be only 1 188 miles, whereas by the present route it is 210 miles, and by the which carries in itself the conviction of the 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 Banadilwl2a;2:lll%-es m in il tTe i ot e h ff e e r c . ting • necessity there is for the proposed railway, in order to connect more T o 4 n , r e e mi n i t n l s l e t r s a a i t l i l e e a e y n , immediately two such important towns, especially when these towns are but the foci, as it were, quite 28 iti m e i l l e e n s for other railways from still more distant verted to. localities, as before ad The localities, 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 2634 miles, making the whole distance from Manchester to Derby only 56% advantage t in ai p n o e r , t i, an a t n t d ow o n f s it b se y lf a q b u o miles ; and thus diminishing the distance by any present communi cation important eonsideration that, in conjunction 1 mend a line of railway embracing such beneficial results. an object But great as these results most certainly w ill .. _, De they are far out -1 to recom , moateat ion be t desirableweent o t h b o e s ea attained, with the Manchester and Rush,- Direct Railway, it will also be the most direct route from Liverpool to London, weighed by the The di s t a nce from Liv er p ool 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 188% m iles, 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 eughleerthg difficulties connected with the forming of the line. provide that no call shall b e ma d e on the share holders beyond the clePosit now paid until the Act of Parliament is obtained, and power will be taken in the Act to allow 41. per cent interest on all calls. . :,,. , . .

While the, proposed thiamin affect the local object of preserving the mercantile connexion that has so long subsisted between the county of Suffolk and the port of Lynn, it will effect the national one of affording to the ports of Ipiwick and Harwich, and the im portant towns of Oolchester and Bury St. Edmunds, a direct com munication with Lancashire, Yorkshire, ae•sl the north, and, by means of the Ely and Huntingdon, and the proposed Rugby and Huntingdon Railways, with. Birmingham and the west. From these sources a most ample . return on the capital required for the undertaking may be confidently relied on. The line is singularly easy of construction, the estimated cost. in cluding every contingency, being little above 8,0001. per mile ; it will not interfere with ornamental grounds of any kind, and it is not anticipated that any opposition will be offered by the landowners. The Provisional Directors are to be at liberty to take all such measures as they may deem requisite for obtaining the necessary powers to construct the line or any part thereof, wills such branches, extensions, or alterations, as they shall be advised to adopt ; and for such powers, or any of them, they are to have power to increase the amount of the capital, to lease or sell the line to, or amalgamate the same with, the Lynn and Ely, Ely and Huntingdon, and Lynn and Dereham Railway Companies, or any or either of them, or any other company or companies. It is proposed to raise the capital by issuing 10,080 shares of 201. each, a deposit of '2/. 2s. per share (in compliance with the Standing Orders of Parliament) to be paid on allotment. There will be as interval of twp months between the calls, and not more than 51. per share will be called for at one time. A Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract, in such form and with such clauses as the Provisional Directors may think right, will lie ibr signature at the offices of the Solicitors, in London and Lynn; on payment of the deposit. Arrangements will be made for transmitting the deeds to the principal provincial towns 17 be near which the shareholders may reside, due notice whereof sent to every shareholder by post. As under arrangements entere d into with the Lynn and Ely, Ely and Huntingdon, and Lynn and Derehant, Railway o the Com hpan olde rs ies, a large proportial of the capital h as been appropriated t of shares in those eornpanies,. a very limited number of shares only is at the disposal of the Provisional Directors, and no application for share, tit Telbre, can be attended to, except from parties locally interested and of the highest respectability, by whom applica tion; may be made, in the annexed form, on or before the ISt October, 1845, to the Secretary, at the Company 's Offices, er, Lynn, No *folk, or to the respective solicitors ; no application, In any MC be attended to unless acconanied by a reference tA; cap eq of the PreVisional Cm Company. -Bankers of the To the Provisional Committee of the Ely and Bury St. Edmunds Railway, I request you to allot me .- shares of 201. each in the above undertaking, and 1 hereby engage to accept the same, or any less number which may be allotted to me, and to pay the deposit thereon, and to execute the Parliamentary - Contract and Subscribers' Agree ment when required.

Rogers, Olding, and Co., Cleniciit's-lane, Loudon SECRETARY—BeIIry Brookes, Esq. - The proposed railway will commence at Rugby, on the London and Birmingham Railway, the terminus of the Midland Counties and Trent Valley Railways, and the paint to which several other projected nelways converge, and will proceed through or near to Leamington, Warwick, Stratford-on•• Avon, Evesham, Tewkesbury, and Cheltenham, to Gloucester. The length of the line will b., about 56 miles. The advantages that will result from the construction of this line are numerous and highly important, and such as cannot fail to secure I a very large amount of local. and through traffic, and a highly-re- I munerative return upon the capital invested. By means of existing and proposed railway s, it will form a complete chain of railway com munication between the whole of the midland and north-eastern counties of England, the populous cities and towns before-named, and the southern and western districts, and thus bring Leicester, Not tingham, Newark, Lincoln, Gainsborough, Great Grimsby, and Hull, Into direct communication with the favourite and fashiOnable spas of Leamington and Cheltenham, the richly-productive and far-famed Vale of Evesham, and the seaports of Gloucester, Bristol, Plymouth, and Falmouth, and those of South Wales. The inhabitants and visitors of the mulch-frequented watering places of Leamington and Cheltenham, will thus obtain a direct line between those resorts, instead of the present circuitous route through Birmingham, affording that facility of intercommunication which has long been ardently desired ; and it will also afforil the utmost fa cility of access to the innumerable visitors who, attracted as well by the beauty of the scenery as the memory of Sitakspeare, annually resort to Stratford-on-Avon. To those passengers from the east and north-east, direct to Glou- Gloucester, the line from Tewkesbury, cutting off the angle of the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway--to-Cheltenham, will afford a great accommodation, and a saving In distance of at least eight miles, besides the delay of the stoppage at Cheltenham. At Tewkesbury it will also form a junction with the proposed line from that place to Malvern, affording the most direct communication to the numerous visitors to the magnificent scenery and invigorating atmosphere of the celebrated Malvern-hills. To the inhabitants of the ancient and populous borough of Tewkes bury, this portion of the proposed line will prove immensely advan tageous ; situated within ten miles of the important city and port of Gloucester, they have nevertheless to travel by the present railway route nearly twice that distance, an inconvenience which has already materially affected the trade, and prejudiced the interests of the town. The proposed line, running close to the town, will remove this great 'neon:enhance, and restore its trade to its former state of prosperity. The value of this line to the city and port of Gloucester cannot be too nighly estimated, as it will not only open to it immen, e sources of traffic from the whole of the eastern and north-eastern counties, but will very materially lessen the distance between it and Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and South Staff, .rdshire, making Gloucester still more securely the nearest and most accessible outlet for the whole of that immensely productive manufacturing region , and it is impossible to conceive any project better calculated to advance the interests of Gloucester, than one capable of effecting that object. This line will also fonts an important junction between the London and Birmingham ;and Midlands Railways, and the Bristol and Gloucester Railway, and constitute the highway for the traffic of the former, and of all the north-eastern railways, to the proposed Man chester and Southampton Railway at Cheltenham ; and the through traffic from the latter source alone is expected to be very great., It will thus have the effect of connecting the ports of the eastern and north-eastern with those of the western and southern coasts ; of affording the most direct and convenient access from the north and east to the vast mineral regions of South Wales, and of opening new markets for the rich products of the fertile valleys of the Avon and Severs, and the alp icultural districts of Warwickshire and Wor• cestershire, In the manufacturing towns and ports of the north. . The line will be easy of construction, traversing, as ikdoes, through nearly its whole length, tile valleys of the Avon and Severn. The towns through which it will run are very populous, and the country of the richest description ; and the local traffic consequently be very great in addition to the through tragic, which on such a line must necessarily be very extensive. The Provisional Cogunittee reserve to themselves the power to amalgamate with any other company as to the whole or any part of the line, and to vary or extend the line, and to increase or diminish the capital accordingly, if deemed expedient. The capital proposed to be raised is 1,000,0001., in shares of 201., upon which a deposit of 21. 2s. per share must be paid upon allot , ment. The liability of the subscribers will be limited ,by the Act, to the amount of their respective ,subscriptions to the capital stock, and power will be applied for in the Act to allow interest at the rate of 41. per cent.per annum on the amount of the deposit, and upon the re spective calls, from the date of each payment until the opening of the , . Agreement and the Parliamenta r y C on t ract will be required - line.

The Directors have to congratulate the shareholders of the Lei cester and Tamworth Junction, and of the Coventry, Nuneaton, Bir mingham, and Leicester Railway Companies, on the union of inte rests which has been effected by the amalgamation of the two Com panies under the title of " The Leicester, Tamworth, Coventry, Birmingham, and Trent Valley Junction Railway Company," whereby such an accession of strength has been obtained as to ensure a successful issue to their application to Parliament during the next session. By this arrangement the shareholders in each Company are en- Wed to exchange the shares they now hold in the separate Com panies for a like number in the united Company, or at their option to receive back the full amount of their deposits. One branch of this railway will commence at or near the Wigton station, near Leicester, on the Midlands Railway, where it will unite with the proposed South Midland Railway, thereby opening a com munication with Market Harborough, Northamptonshire, Bedford shire, and the south, and will proceed through Hinckley and Nun eaton to Coventry, forming a junction with the Trent Valley Rail way at Nuneaton, Another branch will proceed from the Midlands Railway at Leicester, by Market Bosworth to Atherstone, where it will unite with the Trent Valley Railway. Surveys for the proposed extension to Birmingham are in a state of great forwardness. The objects embraced by the Company as now constituted are threefold: — First—To effect a direct communication between Leicester and Liverpool, by means of the junction with the Trent Valley Railway at or near Atherstoue, thereby effecting a saving in distance of 30 miles. Secondly—To afford the most direct communication between Leicester, Birmingham, and the iron districts of Staftbrdshire, by means of a junction with the Birmingham and Derby Railway at the Whiteacre station, thereby reducing the distance between Birming ham and Leicester from 49 to 35 miles. Thirdly—To connect the important towns of Coventry, Bosworth, Nuneaton, Hinckley, and Leicester by the nearest practicable line, thereby reducing the distance between Coventry and Leicester seven miles, and affording railway accommodation to the important mann fatturing and mineral districts of South Leicestershire and North Warwickshire, and also communicating, by means of the Coventry branch of the London and Birmingham Railway, with Leamington, and by means of the projected Warwick and Cheltenham Railway with Cheltenham. The proposed line will afford an outlet, by means of a branch to the Leicester and Swannington Railway, for the coal, lime, and other mineral productions of Leicestershire, to the districts south and west of Leicester. The four important towns of Leicester, Coventry, Tamworth, and Birmingham, containing a population of upwards of 300,000, will be brought by this railway into immediate connexion. The country has been carefully surveyed, and the Parliamentary plans and sections are nearly perfected. By order, J. E. RATHBONE, Sec. pro tem.
