This Line, which, subject to the decision of the Gauge Commis sioners, will be constructed on the Broad Gauge principle, will com mence at the Worcester Station of the Great Eastern and Western Railway, and, proceeding by Redditch and Henley-in-Arden, will touch Warwick and Leamington, and end at Rugby, the terminus of the Midland Counties Railway and of the proposed Rugby and Hunt ingdon Junction Railway. It will communicate with Droitwich, Studley, Aicester, and Stratford-on-Avon. At Velirwiek, it will unite with the Birmingham and Oxford Junc tion Railway, the Warwick and Cheltenham Railway, and the Lon don, Warwick, Leamington, and Kidderminster Railway ; and at Rugby, with the London and Birmingham, the Midland Counties, and the projected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction hallways. The country through which it will pass, is thickly populated, and of the rich - est description. It presents no engineering difficulties, and from its population, its manufactures, and agricultural produee, it possesses sources of Buell abundant traffic as to render it highly re munerative to the Capitalists. The object proposed is to complete the line of railway communica tion between the Western, Midland, and Eastern portions Eof the Kingdom, and a glance at the Map of England will show that this will be effected in the most direct manner by the present line ; touch ing, as it will, at one of its termini, a railway running direct from Swansea to Worcester, and rat the other, the projected line from Rugby to Huntingdon—horn which point a railway communication has been already provided. By means of this Railway, the manufheturee of all the towns and tke agricultural produce of the country contained within its range, as well as the Ports on the Eastern and North-Eastern Coast, will' have opened to there a direct and unbroken communication with the great and densely-populated mineral fields of South Wales, as well es the markets of the Northern portion of the principality. To the population; along theline as well as to the Midland and Northern portions of `he kingdom, this undertaking will present the most direct communication with those towns of fashionable resent -pr Leamington and Cheltenham.

Strahan and Co. ; and Messrs. Roberts and Co.; London. Messrs. Stuckey and Co., Bristol, Bridgwater, and Taunton.. One of. the principal objects this Company has in view, Is a great saving of time in the jimrney from Ireland and Soufh Wales to Bristol and London, by avoiding the tedious and dangerous passage of the Bristol. Channel, and at the same time effecting the long sought-for communication between the English and Bristol Channels, all of which will be gained by connecting Minehead with Bridge water by a Railway, and there forming a junction with the railways already opened, and also with those now in actual progress between Bridgwater and the commodious and important port of Poole. The question of an eligible steam-packet and post-office station on the Somersetshire coast for Ireland, Wales, and the Westward gene rally, from whence vessels may arrive and depart at all times, with out reference to tide, has for many years past been regarded as one of immense importance to the Government and the public. By making Minehead a post-office station, a saving of twelve hours will be effected in the delivery of letters between Ireland and the whole of the west and south of England ; and no other port on the coast of Somerset (or even on the north of Devon) will be so safe; and sheltered from all the prevailing winds. At Minehead, the proposed railway will run down on a pier, which the largest class steamers may approach, and land and embark pas sengers at all states of the tide, and again proceed at once into the Western Ocean on their outward voyage. The public is perhaps hardly aware that, even with the present imperfect and rude arrangements for landing passengers at Weston Super-Mare, it is found that passengers from Ireland and the impor tant ports of the south of Wales save several hours by landing at that place ; whereas, by the proposed pier and railway from Minehead, passengers would save generally twelve hours, and very often a great deal more, on their journey to London, avoiding, besides, the dangers of the Bristol Channel.

It is not among the least striking features of this project that it forms part of a grand scheme for shortening the communication between Ireland and Wales with Jersey, Guernsey, Paris, and the Continent generally, as passengers landed at Minehead will proceed by this railway to others now in progress via Yeovil and Dorchester to Poole, from which port the distance to Cherbourg is only sixty miles, thus rendering the distance from Minehead to Cherbourg easily performed in eight hours and a half ; and from Cherbourg a railway is now in course of formation to Paris. The distance also to the Channel Islands is reduced in the same proportion. A powerful com pany, fully alive to the advantages of this mode of transit in prefe rence to the %ore tedious one via Southampton and Havre, is about to put en a line of packets between the ports of Poole and Cherbourg and the Channel Islands, thus shortening the route in point of time by about seventeen hours. This Company, in showing to the public the probable amount of traffic which will flow over their line, beg leave to draw attention to the following extracts, taken from a prospectus of a Company, formed under the auspices of the Chairman of the Great Western Company, and the leading bankers and merchants of Bristol, for making a pier at, and railway from Portbury, to Bristol, and on which no further comment will be made, save that whatever applies to Portbury, ap plies with infinitely greater force to Minehead, both in the saving of time, dang r, delay, and expense. " There are at the present time engaged in the trade with South Wales, Somersetshire, Devonshire, Cornwall, Liverpool, and Ireland, twenty-three steam-vessels of the aggregate tonnage of upwards of 6,000 tons, making rather better than fifty voyages, or 100 arrivals and departures per week on an average throughout the year. "The principal part of the traffic of the whole of these vessels con sists of passengers, whilst of their goods traffic an important portion consists of merchandize brought by, and intended fer carriage on, the existing railways, from and to places on either aide of Bristol. For the conduct of this traffic, every vessel will necessarily require to use the pier and railway on each occasion of departure and arrival, as the most expeditious, convenient, and economical mode of conveying Such traffic to or towards its place of destination. " The number of passengers carried by the existing steam-boats amounts to at least 200,000 per annum ; and when it is considered that the facilities afforded by the pier of starting and arriving at all times of the tide, will enable vessels which now perform but one voyage per diem, or every alternate day, to and from the nearer ports in South Wales, to make such voyages three or four times in the same day, at very trifling, if any, additional cost -L that on the voyages to Swansea, Tenby, and Ilfracombe, they will effect a saving of one-half the time now occupied, and that similar advantages will be derived bathe trade with Cornwall and Ireland, it can neither be doubted that the expense of conveyance between Bristol and those places will be considerably reduced, nor that the effect of such re duction, combined with the advantage of greater certainty as to the times of departure and arrival, must have the effect of causing a great increase in the number of passengers. "A large and most valuable portion of the merchandise carried by the Cornish, Welsh, and Irish steam-boats consists of fish, poultry, eggs, vegetables, and other articles of provision ; speed and certainty in the conveyance and delivery of articles of so perishable a nature are obviously essential, and the facilities in this respect afforded by the pier are such as to secure this traffic to the undertaking. " A very considerable revenue will also be derived from the landing and carriage of Liver tea brought by the Irish steam boats, which being imported fat and ready to kill, now suffer much injury from the detention of the vessels in Kingroad whilst waiting for tide." Although it is unnecessary to calculate upon the whole of this im portant and justly founded traffic, it is nevertheless impossible to over-estimate the large portion of it that will come over this lino, when it is remembered that by the proposed scheme the harbour of Waterford will, by means of powerful steamers, be brought within twelve, and the ports of Dublin and Cork within fifteen hours of the terminus at Mineheatt, by which the danger, inconvenience, and un pleasantness of travelling by night will be altogether avoided.

The object proposed by this railway is, as well to supply the wants of the district through whi c h i t passes, as to complete the c hain of railway communication between the eastern and midland counties and the western district, including the whole of North and South Wales. . This railway is intended to commence at the east part of the city of Exeter, near St. Sidwells, and after passing through Topsham, with a fork at Woodbury by Lympstone to Exmouth, will proceed, in an easterly direction, towards Sidmouth, and thence, near Colyton, Beer, Seaton, AXTriouth, Lyme Regis, and Charmouth, to Bridport. At Bridport the line will divide, taking tke course direct to Dor chester, to join the Southampton and Dorchester Railway, and the other, passing near Bridport harbour and Abbotsbury to Weymouth. At Exeter, junctions will be formed with the Bristol and Exeter and North Devon Railways, and at Exmouth with the South Devon, by means of their steam ferry, thus making the most direct route to Plymouth from London. Also at Dorchester and Weymouth it will be connected with the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth, as well as with the Dorchester and Southampton at Dorchester. It will be seen, on reference to the map, that by forming a junc tion with the lines of coast railway that have already been con structed or commenced from Exeter westward, and from Dorchester eastward, and by following the *past as nearly as is practicable be tween its termini, this line will effectually complete a railway com munication from Dover to the Land's End, an undertaking in itself ofgreat national importance, and likely to moot with the cordial sup port of the Government. In fixing the course which this Railway will take, it has been the careful consideration of the Promoters to project only such a Line as will afford the greatest facility of communication to the populous and important towns and fashionable watering places which are situat on and near that part of the Coast which this Railway is particu larly meant to accommodate ; whilst, at the same tlum, the Agri cultural, Manufacturing, and Commercial Interests of this part of the Kingdom have been equally studied. This Line will also open such additional moans of communication to the Port of Weymouth, the largo Manufacturing Town and liar. hour of Bridport, and the Harbour of Lyme Regis, as must even tually replace them in that high position, when compared with tho other Ports of the Kingdom, which they formerly held. The Water ing Places of Exmouth, Budleigh-Salterton, Sitittletith, Charmouth, Lyme-Regis, Weymouth, &c., will be thus tlarOwn open to every part of England and Wales, and accommodated with that facility of ac cess which they alone regain to place them on an equal position with other favourite places of resort, for which the picturesque In land and bold Coast-Scenery of Devonshire and Dorsetaltire is pre eminently proverbial, and justly entitles them to held. The following extract from the Report of kiie Select Committee of the House of Lords on the " Wilts, SOreet'set, and Weymouth Rail way," made on the 18th of June, 1845 1 will show the sense enter tained by that body of the importance of a Une of railway in the di rection proposed by The present Company 1--" In making their re port, the Committee feel it their duty to state that the great diffi culty with them, in deciding on the Bill referred to them, bad arisen from the fear they entertained whether, in allowing the Great Western Railway to come down to the sea at Weymouth, or even be low Yeovil, they might not be creating a difficulty as to making a railway in the most desirable manner to Falmouth, the most westerly port in the Channel." The great importance of this railway may he further estimated, from a consideration of the fact that the local population which would he benefited by its constrtietion exceeds two hundred thousand persons. The country embraeed by this line is of the richest description, and thickly populated. By means of this, and the existing and projected lines of railway, the whole of the ports in the eastern and north-eastern counties, in cluding the manufacturing city of Norwich, and towns of Leicester, Nottingham, Sheffield, Leeds, and the whole of Yorkshire will be brought in direct communication with the mineral districts of North and South Wales, the salt district of Droltwich, and the river Severn. This line of railway will commence at a point on the Grand Junc tion Railway at Stafford, and passing from thence by Stone, Lane end, Fenton, Stoke-upon-Trent, Shelton, Hanley, Burslem, and Tun stall, to Congleton, it will proceed by Knutsford to Altrincham, where it will join the Routh Junction Railway to Manchester, an Act for which has been obtained ; and from Congieton by Northwich to Preston-Brook, where it will communicate with the Grand Junction Railway, and proceed thence to Liverpool. A branch from Stoke upon-Trent, by Newcastle to Crewe, affording accommodation to the Silverdale and Apedale Ironworks, will connect the main line with the important railways meeting at that point, and give the shortest Possible route from the Potteries to Chester, Holyhead, and Birken head. A branch will connect the towns of Congleton and Maccles field. A communication will be opened from these places, and from the salt districts of Cheshire, on the one hand to Liverpool, and on the other to Manchester, the ports on the Humber, and the eastern coast of England, and will thus afford a great additional market for the produce of the district, and facilitate the foreign trade from these coasts. The promoters of this line submit to the public, as a most import ant consideration, the abati ng o f those causes of loss and inconveni ence which, along the line of country over which t his railway will pass, are experienced from water carr i age b e i ng from necessity at present a principal mode of transit for heavy goods and merchandise, and which, in the winter season, is productive of the most evil con sequences to those engaged in commerce. A manifest advantage to the Shareholders will be the extent of traffic which will be secured and appropriated by the present undertaking, in lieu of that which hitherto has been engrossed by the more, dilatory course of water carriage. As a public advantage to the inhabitants generally of the above-mentioned districts, the promoters submit that the equa lisation in prices of the produce and merchandise which the opening of this line of railway is ealtulated to produce is of the high est importance, and one of the principal benefits which this and other similar undertakings are alone capable of producing. The proposed line will Commence' at Rugby, the terminus of the Midland Counties and Trent Valley Railways, and also of the pro posed Rugby end Huntingdon Junction Railway, and proceed from thence hear to the towns of Leamington, Warwick, and Alcester, and end at the City of Worcester. At Worcester this line wi ll farm a junction with the several Welsh railways, the Shrewsbury, Wor cester, and Crewe Railway, and the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol verhampton Railway. At Warwick it will unite with the Birmingham and Oxford Junc tion Railway, tile Warwick and Cheltenham Railway, and the Lon don Warwick, Leamington, and Kidderminster 111111 Way. And at Rugby with the London and Birmingham, the Midland Counties, and the projected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railway. To the inhabitants of Rugby as well as to those of the Midland, Eastern, and Northern Counties this line will afford a direct com munication with the fashionable towns of Leamington and Chelten ham, as well as the whole of the Western Counties. To the inhabitants of Leamington and Warwick it will give a direct communication with the City of Worcester and North and South Wales, now so much needed. And to the inhabitants of Worcester, in addition to providing the nearest route to London via Warwick, it will be an outlet to the Eastern Counties and ports, and afford great facilities for the increase of the manufactories now carried on in that city. The whole of the country has during the present month, August, 1845, been most carefully surveyed by the engineers, and they report it to be free from engineering difficulty, and well adapted for a rail way; and the provisional Directors entertain no expense incident ctlidieahtt to line will be made under the a verage rate of similar undertakings, and, from the statistics in t heir possession, that the traffic will afford all am ple return for the capital invested. The line will mot Interfere with ally ornamental property, and the landowners are favourable to the undertaking. The Shareholders in the several Railways proposed to be joined or intersected will have a preference in the allotment of shares in this undertaking. No person will be liable for more than.hisa_deposit till the Act is obtained, and power will be app lied for t ow interest a t 41. per centum on all calls, from the time of th t e respective payments, and to r the hmount of their sub rcriptions arnalgarnate with The Directors reserve power to themselves to ta ro e any existing - or projected li ne of railway ;to vary thl ut make all desirable extensions; and to increase the capi ay may route ; h to advisable or necessary. Prospectuses, with a Plan, will be published in a few days, and may then be obtained on application to the sev eral solicitors, and to any of the following sha re brokers , ,via., Messrs. Peppercorns and Co., 2, Old Broad-street ; Messrs. Preece and Evans, 39, Loth harnpton ; Mr. bury, London ; Messrs. Payne and Freer, Leicester; Messrs. Alston Messrs.

So also must the traffic derived from steam-boats, and on the line itself, be added, which will arise from the Immense resort of persons seeking pleasure in the beautiful vicinities of Nether Stowey, Blue Anchor, Minehead, Porlock, Linton, Lynmouth, and the far-famed Valley of Rocks and adjacent country, so aptly termed the Switzer land of England, and which only require increased facilities to be much more than even at present resorted to ; and so great is the existing traffic that, by the calculations already made, a large reve nue will be derived from this source alone. ' The present number of cattle sent to Bristol from Ireland alone is upwards of 150,000 head per annum, and it is only reasonable to ex pect that these will be landed at the far nearer port of Minehead, thereby creating a considerable source of revenue. The importance of this railway to the agricultural district of North Somerset is incalculable for disseminating, as manure, in every di rection the celebrated lime of Cannington Park, from which, and also from the carrying of coal, a large revenue will arise. Memel timber brought into the port of Poole (the harbour dues of which are very insignificant) can be unshipped, carried across by rail, and re-shipped at Minehead, at a cost of Is. per ton less in freight, than if carried round the Landsend, exclusive of the great saving in time ; this alone will open a large trade with Wales, as vessels will bring over coals to Minehead, and take back timber, limestone, flour, mine, slates, and copper ore. The blue lias lime-stone of Watcher, so admirably adapted for aquatic building, will also produce a considerable revenue to this undertaking. An inspection of the map will show the importance of the line of country proposed to be accommodated by means of this railway, and some of the advantages attending it will be as follow : The Pottery district alone contains an immense population, and the whole of that district is at present without railway accommodation. The importance of the Pottery trade is too manifest to require a mo ment's comment, and the principal part of that trade being connected with Liverpool, it is highly important, in a national point of view, that every facility should be given to the communication betwixt these parts. In no line of railway at present formed or projected has the interest of the Pottery district, as a whole, been duly considered ; but, by the present line, it is intended to afford accommodation to every town in the district, and to give the best and most direct com munication betwixt the Potteries and Chester, Birkenhead and Liverpool, and also through Manchester, with the ports on the Hum ber and the east coast of England, thus affording facilities for a re vival of the tra,le with Holland, Belgium, and Germany, which, it is believed, will he attended with important results to the future trade of the Potteries. The important manuf4etnring towns of Congleton and Macclesfield, with their districts, containing also a very large population, have likewise been, in a great measure, overlooked in the railway arrange ments hitherto carried out ; and it is proposed by this railway to WWII communication from those places, by existing awd projected routes, to the south of England, and to Liverpool, Manchester, Chester, Birkenhead, North Wales, and the whole of the north and east of England 444 Scotland. The flour and provision trade, at present carried on between the mining districts of South Wales and the coast of Somerset, must ne cessarily flow over this line, and create an important feature in its revenue. One of the first effects of the formation of this line will be, that steam communication will be established between ilinehead and the following places :—Swansea, Tonhy, Milford, Heath, Haverfordwest, Pembroke, and Carmarthen, and with the whole of the South of Ireland ; and this railway, with a suitable station and wharfs, will also afford to Watchet all the advantages of which it is capable as a port. The proposed line of Ksilway will afford facilities to the coal dis tilets of Staffordshire, Cheshire, and Smith Lancashire, especially accotoinoclating the large coal.tield at Biddulph, and will tend mate rially to reduec the cost of that article iu the country through which the line is iateudad to pass. Deli(lts for goods will be erected at the station at CoMbwitch Reach, where at present all the larger vessels trading to Bridgwater stop ; and it may be mentioned that 130,000 tons of coasting trade come into this port annually, exclusively of 10,000 tone of foreign trade. The shortest Aug Moat direct. route will be afforded by existing and prejZeted routes from SmAlwmpton, Birmingham, and the whole of South StAffordshire, through tha Potteries, to the salt districts and the north or England ; and the fachitles of communication from the country interseetsd by this line to Liverpool, Birkenhead, Man chester, Chester, North Wales, and all parts of the north and east of England, and to Leadoff, Southampton, Birmingham, and South Stitrordshire, and all parts Fif tlins south and west of England, and South WOO, will be as ample its RIX} bp desired, whilst the traffic, both of goo 4 mut passengers, that is maniftstly attendant on the lino of country will be 114 Ch as to ensure the most gmple return on the capital invested. From the estimates prepared, it is expected that only a portion of the proposed capital will be required to carry •ut the objects of this Company. And also that WeyMonth, which will be one of the termini of the line, is about to become a great National Harbour of Refuge and Packet-station, by the construction of a breakwater in Portland Roads, in accordance with the recommendation of the Government Commissioners, for which purpose a grant was made during the last session of Parliament for conunenoing the works.
