This line has been projected for the purpose of forming the most :t communication between Birmingham and the Midland Conn , and the iinpdrtant and rising pert of Aberystwith and the sea ,ast of Wales. ` is intended to conimence at the junction of the Welch Midland Stour Valley Railways (both of which have projected lines to 3rillingbanl). between Kidderminster .atul Bewdley, and proceed from ience through Cleobury Mortimer to Ludlow, where it will form a iunction with the Worcester and Portdyidlaen and Bridguorth, allow, and Wolverhampton Railways. From Ludlow it will follow line of the present mail road, along the Valley of the Teme to gliton, from which place it is intended to throw off a branch to Craven Arms, to run into the Shropshire Mineral Railway, which •its, terminus -at that pl Lee. The line will proceed from Ihton to Llanidloes, where it will join the projected Manchester Aberystwith Railway, and proceed along that line for the re mainder of the distance. The use of all projected lines being tiros sought for, the part to be made will not exceed sixty miles ; and as surveyors are already upon.the line, the plans, &c., will all be ready to go to Parliament in the ensuing session. The advantages of the present line over any other projected rail way between Biiiningham and Aberystwith are :—That it is the most direct rdtlte li:tWeen . the respective termini ; that it passes through a district a' present • unproVided with railway accommoda tion ; that by it and the Birmingham, Stamford, and Boston lines, a regular- chain. of. railway communication. is opened between St. George's Channel and the German Ocean; that it will open the slate mines of Cardigan Shire, and the limestone of Radnorshire to Shrop shire, and thd Whole a. the midland: counties ; while, on the ether hand, by the branch from the Craven Arms, the coals of Shropshire will be brought• into Radnorshire, Alontgomeryshire, and Cardigan shire, where that•article does not exist, at little store than one-third of its present coSt, From these and. ether sources of traffic it must be obvious that a high rate of Interest upon the capital embarked may be depended upon. The line throughout the whsle distance meets with the most influ 'ential local support, so Rs to ensure its complete success. ' There are no engineering difficulties of any magnitude, and no ornamental property will be Invaded.

Carpenter. , SECRETART — E. Jones, Esq. The port of Boston affords the readiest outlet for exports front the manufacturing districts to the north of Europe, and the importance of direct communication from the midland counties to a place so ad vantageOutily sifnate cannot be over-estimated. Leicester has, or shortly will have, direct communication with Birmingham, and all the other important towns in the midland district. The Midland Railway Company is extending the communication to Melton Mowbray, by means of its branch from Syston to Peter borough, which passes through that place. There is also a complete line of railway about to he established from Nottingham, through Grantham and Folkingham, to Boston, as well as to Spalding, Wis beach, Lynn, Yarmouth, and other important towns in the eastern counties. The Leicester, Melton Mowbray, and Boston Direct Unto" Rail way, by forming a iine'frem Melton Mowbray to Folkingham, will supply the only link wanting to complete a direct through communi cation from Birmingham, Warwick, Worces'er, Coventry, and the manufacturing districts generally, to Boston, as well as by means of existing and projected railways from Wales and the Bristol Channel, I. that seaport. The lenvh. of the proposed line will not exceed twenty-six miles; and as it will pass through a country irery favourable for engineer ing purposes, the expense of construction will, it is expected, be les4 than the usual average. The admirable position of this railway can not fail, it is confidently expected, to command a large return, both in passengers and in goods traffic. The Company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentary Plans and sections in ample time for complying with the standing orders, and enabling theta to apply for their Act in the ensuing session.

Brook and Freeman The object of this undertaking is to Corm a continuous line of rail way from Leeds to Liverpool, by extending the lines already made, er sanctioned by Parliament, from their respective termini at Hud dersfield, in Yorkshire, and Bury, for which extension a line of rail way only 25 miles in length is requisite. The proposed line will com mence at the Huddersfield station, between which place and Leeds. Parliament has already sanctioned the formation of railways, and from Huddersfield the proposed line will proceed by way of Hillhouse' Eirchencliffe, and Lindley, and thence along the valley between Stainland and Greet'and, through Bark'sland, the Vale of ftipponden, and by Rochdale to Bury, in Lancashire, where It will join the ter minus of the Liverpool and Bury lino of railway. In addition to completing a direct communication from Liverpool to Leeds; Hull; and Goole, by the shortest practicable route, and by a much smaller outlay of capital, than by any other proposed line, it will provide for a large. and important manufacturing pop•tlation, hitherto without the advantage of railway accommodation, au outlet to the south by means of the Huddersfield and Sheffield Junction Railway, and to Manchester and to North and South Lancashire by the railways above mentioned, and by the Leeds and Manchester Railway, by a proposed jlinction therewith at Rochdale. This line, when completed, is. addition to the advantages which ;it presents.as a through line, pass through a succession of val leys thickly studded with mills and manu►actories, consuming a large quantity of raw materials and coal, all of which are brought front a distance, and transmitting to other districts the produce of their industry, for which purposes a line of railway has become ab solutely necessary, and there can be no doubt that sul ample return will be realised for the outlay of capital required. The distance between Huddersfield and Rochdale by the present line of railway is thirty miles, which by the proposed railway will be reduced to seventeen miles. The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the right of enter ing into any arrangements with existing railway companies that may appear desirable. And power will be taken by the Act of Parliament to allow interest to the. shareholders at the rate of 4L per cent. per annum .on the amounts paid on their shares from the respective times of payment to the Hines of opening the railway. Applications for shares may be addressed, in the subjoined form, to any or the undermentioned Sharebrokers, Viz:—Motsra.

LOCAL SOLICITOR—SamueI Shepherd, Esq. NorthaUeitan. By this line of railway it is intended to connect the free port of Stockton with the manufacturing districts of the West Riding of Yorkshire and the whole of Lancashire. This important object will be attained at a trifling outlay of capital, and ensure an amply remunerative traffic. The line will be constructed from or near Stockton-on-Tees, to or near to Northallerton, a distance of only eighteen miles, where it will form &junction with the Great North of England Railway, which will be traversed to Thirsk ; and from that place the communication with Leeds and the other important manufacturing towns will be completed by a railway already sanctioned by Parliament. It will be Seen, therefore, that the communication by railway be tween the tree port of the Tees and the town of Leeds will be com pleted by the formation of " The Stockton, Northallerton, and Leeds Itailway.” The advantages of this undertaking are too numerous to specify in an advertisement ; but merchants at all acquainted with the immen'e export and import trade of the West Riding and of Lancashire, bill at once perceive how important it is to open to that trade a port which, whilst it is as advantageous as any other in point of distance, possesses facilities and immunities which none other can offer. From the favourable locality of the port of Stockton, there ii no doe.bt that, with the additional facilities for the importation and transit of merchandise which this railway will afford, the port will occupy a leading position amongst those on the Eastern coast of England. The project has received very extensive local support ; and almost every landowner, through whose property the line is intended to pass, has already signified his assent to the measure. The line of the country•has been surveyed by an engineer of talent and experience, and, from his report, the work will be finished for 14,0001. a mile; and there is no engineering difficulty of any descrip tion to encounter. Applications for Shaves, in the subjoined form, may be forwarded to Messrs. Wilson and Faber, solicitors, Stockton; or to Samuel Shepherd, Esq., solicitor, Northallerton; tap to and including Satur day, the let day of November next, on which day the list will finally close, and the allotment be immediately proceeded with. --- FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the . valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedbergh, and Kirkby Stephen; and thence by the most practicable line to New castle.. It will run nearly parallel with the old coach road, which has hitherto been the principal passenger route from Lancaster to Newcastle. • • It will readily be conceded that great benefits will flow from a direct railway communication between the coal-fields and mining districts of Durham and Northumberland, and the important towas Enid ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, aid Lancaster. The entire length of the line is rich in mineral productions—coal, slate, limestone, marble, and other elements of a great local traffic abound, and cannot fail to make this one of the most remunerative projects of the day. A considerable saving of distance between the important towns on the termini is effected over any existing or pro jected scheme. It will be reserved to the Committee of Management to make such alterations in the line, or the amount of capital required, or other wise, as may be deemed most advantigeous to the interests i. Ake Company. Power will be applied for to :ilOw interest at the rate of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act' to the opening'of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only. . .

SECRETARY—WiIIiana Eanyard, The first object of this line is to connect the town of Birmingham, Coventry, and Leicester, with-the eastern coast by the nearest route, and to supply an important link of communication between the town of Spalding and the eastern coast, and the western aid midland districts. Commencing at the Spalding station of the Norwich, Derekam, Lynn, and Holbeack Railways, ..the line will proceed by Bourn, Witham, Castle Bythara, south Wytham, and Wymondham„ to IL point on the Syston and Peterborough line of railway near Melton- Mowbray, thus tbrming, ly the ityston 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 midland 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 railway. It will form, with other projected railways, an almost direst line across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, 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 o'stain 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 Weiland 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 traffic 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 abeeenstenantedruedig orders. o as which ea sure compliancecontracts have with th Forms of application for share s, p lans, and p ros p ectuses ma y be had of the Solicitors ; also at the offices of the Company. 4 , Tra falgar-square, Charing-cross, where applications for shares, accom panied by respectable references, may be addressed to the Provi sional Committee.
