The intrortance et connecting remote parts_ of E. gland by Rail ways, with the advantages thereby conferred upon intermediate towns and districts, can scarcely be be•ter exem,litied than by the Line which is Low proposed to form a short and direct channel of inter course between Oxford and Salisbury. Numerous projected lines now before the public will make Oxford at the north, and Salisbury at the south of the intended Railroad the central points from which various radii will di t erge to the northwest, north, and north-east of the former, and to the east, south, and west of the latter; and the proposed Line front Cambridge to Oxtord, continuing to that city the co•zse of Railway from the north-eastern parts of the island, requires the appliance stow suggested to effect a complete means of transit to the western and south-western counties. The Oxford and Salisbury Direst Railway, in addition to the benefits which will he eonferred upon the nation at large, by preferring a direct line of common'cation be tween the north-eastern and western and south-western parts of England, will afford to the borough of Abingdon, the market towns of Windage, liungerford, and Ludgershall, and the adjacent villages, an Important railway accommodation, of which the agricultural districts iu which they are seated stand in much need, and will provide a facility for the interchange of produce be tween the rural, manufacturing, and commercial population of the kingdom. The want of railway accommodation has long been felt to press unfairly upon the inhabitants of the important and thriving town •f Abingdon. Their means and opportanities of competing with the more fortunate traders of those towns which are already provided with di rect channels of transit, are thus severely crippled. The same remark applies iu some degree to the market town of Wantage, which, as well as Hungerford and Ludgershall, claims a share of the profits and advantages produced S y railway traffic. It has therefore been determined to commence the proposeili ne at Oxford, and to proceed through Abingdon to the station of the Great Western Railway at Steventon, thus giving to Abingdon a direct rail road to London. By continuing the projected railway to Wantage, the same facility of transit to London will be afforded to that place ; and a perfect line of road from the north-eastern counties will, by a junc tion with the projection from Cambridge to Oxford, be produced, through the towns which have been named, Hungereard and Ludgers hall to Salisbury, and thence to tke south and western ports and dis tricts. A map of the line, and a statistical report of the whole country Intended to be traversed, Is in course of preparation, and with the names of an influential provisional Committee, will very shortly be published. In the meantime, further information may be ob tained front Messrs. Elmslie And Preston, 47, Moorgate-street, Londe*, solicitors. to the nuderist.ing, to veliora, at present, applica thin for shares may be made. iI E LIVERPOOL and DERBY RAILWAY.

Rice and Thomas Hopkins, M.1.C.8.; and John Belcher, Esq. SECRETARY. 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 Liverpool and Manchester Railway to within a importance 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-•ix 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, optn 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 be only 168 miles, whereas by the present route It is 210 miles, and by the Trent Valley Railway 20014 miles ; effecting a saving of 92 miles in one instance, and I2M 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 fbci, 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 3d miles, and from Leek to Derby about 26% rAiles, making the whole distance from Manchester to Darby only 561 miles ; and thus diminishing the distance by ally present communi 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 a 3 titesei*estilts moat 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 (Urea route from Liverpool to Lor.don. The aistance frpm 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 }to line as proposed by the Man. chester and Rugby Direct Railway, 58 miles, and from Rugby to London 113 miles; thus making the whole distance from Liverpool to London 188% miler, 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. Them are no engineering difficnitlep connected with the forming of the line. The deeds will provide that no call shall be made en the share mlders I?eyond the deposit now paid until the Act of Parliament is obtained, and power will be taken in the Aot to allow 41. per cent nterest on all calls.

This line will diverge from the line of the Great Zastern and Western Railway, near Worcester, and proceeding by Brom yard, will end at Leominster, at which point it will unite with the proposed lines connecting Iteretbrcl and Shrewsbury with North Wales. The communication by railway between these important towns and the continuous hop and cider 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 communication between Leominster, 33 roMyard. and Worcester, which latter town has always been the natural market for the produce of these districts, and 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.

Dorrlngton, Hayward, 8111- 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 railw a y, e i t h er already constructe d or projected, converge ; and between these four poi n t s no ra ilway exists. The West Midland Rail wa y proposes to un i te t h ese points in the following way :—By comm enc i ng one of its arms at Crewe stati on, on the Grand Junction Rail wa y, w hi c h w ill ru n through or near Newcastle-under-Lyre, Burshatn, 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 tbo 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,Sn the one heed, and Sheffield, Retford, Mansfield, Nottingham, Newark, Norwich, and the ports of Gainsborough, Grimsby, Boston, Sledding, Lynn and Yarmouth, on the other. Tills line will accommodate a very considerable portion of the traffic proceeding front 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 Stafford, and the whole of the traffic from the east coast of Scotland, Northumberland, Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, anti 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 by 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 ef, om south-east to north-west, and from north-east to south-w, st, as well as fbr the corn and other a .:ricultural produce from the eastern counties t o th e manufacturing districts ; and a return carriage of manufa c t ure d goods, slates from North Wales, salt from Cheshire, earth enware from Staffordshire, and iron from Shropshire , for the consumpti on o f the midland counties as well as for export from the eastern ports of Hull, Grimsby, Boston, Spalding , ice. , some adequate idea m a y be formed of the advantages which the corn* ion of this comprehensive scheme will naturally develop , skit these obje c t s have been deeply and seriously considered, an (learned of s uc h para mount importaece to 1001 interests, that the fullest and Most in fluential support and co-operation have bee n ob d tabled to effectually carry out and insure the various objects of this undertaking, Surveys of the district have been made with much ears, and the result is highly favourable in an engineering point of view.

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 bianch . te Buxton is in contemplation. The principle of this railway is to obtain a direct through line be tween some of the most important 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 tQ Mafia), when the Sheffield and Chester field branch of tha North Midland Railway is made. The lit by , Derby, and Manchester Railway, in connexion with the Oxford and Rugby, and Oxford, Southampton, cad Gosport Rail way, forms a direct Manchester and Southampton line. TUE GREAT ADVANTAGER Of the Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway, ever the other pro jects Into Manchester, among oth.rs, are— First. That there are only seventy-Ave miles of railway to be made in pi.ice of one hundred and eighty-nine. Second. That It is a more direct line from London to Manehester than even the proposed direct liner. Third. That it interferes with no existing railway property er vested interests. Fourth. That it passes through a District rich in manufacture*, agriculture, and minerals, but which—more especially as regards its agricultural produce, and a convenient system of intercommunica tion for the conveyance of that agricultural produce, to supply the large manufacturing towns in the vielnity•—has been hitherto left to tally without railway communication. Fifth. That it passes through the towns in its route, instead of avoiding thnlkl.. Ed . Mil, ilAt the whole line of railway from Rugby to Manchester Wain completed and in working order within ten months from the passing of the Act of Parliament. . ....... Seventh. That the maps, plans, estimates, and other documents required by the standing ordors of Parliament will be lodged with the parish clerks, tile clerks of the peace for the counties, and the Pftrliamentary offices, on the 10th of November next, being twenty clays 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 shares 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.

The object of this line Is to make a short and (Brent communication between the populous manufacturing and iron and coal districts of Bradford, Cleckheaton, lleckmondwike, Batley, Dewsbury, Barns ley, and Sheffield, with tho wool and agricultural districts of Lei. cestershire, Derbyshire, Doncaster, Galusborough, Lincoln, &c., and the port of Boston. The line will form a junctlOil with the West Yorkshire, the Leeds and Dewsbury, and the Manchester and Leeds Beltways, at or near Dewsbury; and thence proceed by Dart to Barnsley, and IVonthwell, to or near to Wath-upon-Dearne, near Swinton ; where it will Join the North Midland Railway, and also meet the proposed line to Doncaster, Bawtry, Gainsboreugh, and Lincoln ; and form a communication by the existing lines with the port of Boston and the south ; and by the projected Hull and Barnsley Junction Railway ; it will else form a direet line to Hull, and by the Leeds and Thirsk Railway, a direct line to the nortk. The hue will also be continued from Barnsley by Tankersley and Chapeltown to Sheffield. A branch will run to the various ironworks and Colliery Rail ways, near Wentworth I alld another branch will run to the Silk stone Colliery Railways. A direct itos Of ciallltuunication will thus be formed between the 11 1 1 P014411t Mattllfiteturlng places of Bradford, Blerley, Cleckheaton, Ciomereall, Ileckmondwile, Liversedge, Batley, Dewsbury, Ossett, Thornhill, Dorton, Barnsley, Ardeley, and Wombwell, to Wath upon-Dearne, Doncaster, Liueolnshire, the port of Boston, and the south, and also to SWIM ; affording the best possible accommoda tion to the rich Iron and coal districts of Silkstone, Worsborough, Ttukerslcy, Chapeltown, and Sheffiell ; whilst the wools and raw materials used in the manufactures at Bradford, Pudsey, Earlshcaton, Cleckheaton, Batley, Heekinondwlke, 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, anti 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, en 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, Heckmondwike, Batley, Cleckheaton, Bradford, and the intermediate places (each containing a numerous manufacturing population), has been the North Midland line by Normanton—a very circuitous route, as appears by the fol lowing statement of distances of those places : Relative distanoes from Bradford and Dewsbury to Barnsley and Sheffield, by the present route, and the proposed line : From Bradford to Barnsl e y b y B r i ghouse, and thence by Miles the Leedi and Manchester line, about By the proposed line from Bradford, via Cleekheatoa and Dewsbury, to Barnsley .. .. 20 Being a savlig of ..

From Dewsbury by the present route Sheffield is distint 40 miles ; by the proposed line It will be 21,—0r a saving of 19 miles. The came observations, as to saving of distance, apply to London and all intermediate places ; and it is important to observe that either by the present North Midland 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 a Normanton. The following table, taken from the Parliamentary Census of 1841, will give some idea of the populous Districts through which the line passes : POPULATION OF PLACE! (IN 1841), ON THE LINE 4111' ROAM.

SECILETART—Mr. John C. Sommers. In submitting this undertaking to the public, the promoters are influenced no less by a conviction of its importance as a direct con necting line between the important towns of Chichester and Ports mouth and the Metropolis, than by its grand national importance in affording a direct communication between the two great military and naval arsenals of Great Britain—Portsmouth and Chatham. The projected undertaking, by proceeding to the two termini It Chichester and Portsmouth, will extend the facilities of communica tion with the coast branches of railways along the south of England. connecting itself with Brighton to the eastward, and Southampton towards the wost. By the main line falling into the Brighton Rail way the advantage of two termini in London will be secured—the one at the Bricklayers' Arms, and the other at London .bridge—the latter of which, from Its proximity to the Custom house, and the several docks on the Thames, is acknowledged to be the best position for a London terminus for merchandise of all descriptions. The line of railway intended to be constructed by this Company will commence at or near the Redhill station near Reigate, on the Lon don and .Brighton Railway, a distance of 21 miles from London bridge. In its course to Portsmouth It will pass through or near Reigate. Newdigate, Cupel, Ockley, Ewburst, Rudgwick, Cranley, Aliold. Billinghurst, Wisborough-green, Plaistow, Haslemere, Chiddingfold. North Chapel, Kidford, Petforth, Ilidhurst, Cl;ulgroye, Stoughton Racton, Westbourne, and Eansworth, at or near which last mentioned place this projectedll c will join the Chich sterand Portsmouth Rail way to Portsmouth. A branch is proposed to be made from Dorking to join the main line at or near Capel. By this course the entiri, distance to travel between London and Portsmouth will be abridged to 73 miles, a distance considerably shorter than that by which any line hitherto projected between London and Portsmouth has proposed to pass, and also pursuing a route more populous and productive than any hitherto presented to public notice. It will involve the construction of only 0 miles of railway to complete the course between the Reilliill station (near Reigate) and Emsworth. From London to Reigate by the London and Brighton Railroad is 21 miles.
