PARLIAMBNTARY Ao —G. 11, Lang, Esq., 37, Great George- street, Westminster. The otlitct of this undertaking is to secure a superior terminus to the railways which have recently been incorporated, or are projected to the south of the City of Glasgow. The Lfne will commence at a point on the Glasgow, Barrhead, and Neilston Direct Railway, nearly one mile to the south of the City, and will terminate at the River Clyde, near the site of the old Wheat Sheaf Inn, and adjoining to the Church of Gorbals, with Branches to the Clydesdale Junction and Monkland Direct Railway, or such mint as may be deemed advisable. The Line has been carefully surveyed, and the proposed capital is amply sufficient ; and when it is considered that the terminus will be at the moat suitable point between the atone bridge to be erected at the foot of Stockwell-street, and the iron bridge to be erected at the foot of Portland-street, and that it will be convenient to the Post Office, to the new Arcade, and other :places of public resort contemplated with a view to embellish the City and improve the ac cess to the Harbour, and that it will concentrate at this important point the Railways to Pollockshaws, Barrhead, and NelistOn—Kil marnock, Irvine, Ardrossan, and Ayr—Strathaven, Lesmahagow, and Carlisle—Rutherglen, Hamilton, Wishaw, and Lanark—not to speak of the Lines of the Monklands, Lothians, and Edinburgh hseif—there cannot be a doubt that, short though this Line be, there are few likely to afford a more ample remuneration to the pro prietors. - In allocating the Shares, a preference will be given to the Share and Scrip holders of the Glasgow, Barrhead, and liellston Direct, Clydesdale Junction, Glasgow, Kilmarnock, and Ardrossan, Glasgow, Btrathaven, and Lesmahagow Direct, and Glasgow and Monklands Direct Railways.

The objects of the Midland and Thirsk Junction Railway are three fold ; firmly, to open up and fully develop one of the richest fields of Coat and Ironstone in the kingdom ; secondly, to make a Trunk Line Of eOißtßunication from South tO North, between the Midland and the Leeds and Thirsk Hallways; and, thirdly, in conjunction with the Midland at Oakinillider, the Manchester and Leeds and the Wake field, Politefreet and Goole at Wakefield, the Leeds and Dewsbury at er near "Welty Mills, the Bradford and Leeds at or near Calverley, and the Leeds and Thirsk at or near Horsforth, to afford to the densely Dopulated and important manufacturing district through which the line is intended to pass, the best facilities for the conveyance of pas sengers, merchandise, &c., to all parts of the country. The intended line runs parallel with none of the projeeted schemes of lest session, and cannot be said to interfere with any of theist ; it is perfectly independent, and imperatively called for. The quantity of coal procured from different collterea now work ing in the Howden Clough and Cockersdale Valleys (which are on the intended line of railway) is about 6,000 tons per week, and when the railway now projected is formed, it is believed that the average supply weekly will be upwards of 20,000 tons, so that from this vast and inexhaustible field of coal, occupying more than 10,000 acres, and averaging twenty feet in thickness (of workable coal) an unli mited supply of the best and cheapest coal in the kingdom will be available for the London market (via Goole), as well as the more neighbouring towns of Wakefield, Leeds, Halifax, Bradford, Dews bury, Bingley, Keighley, Skipton, Otley, Harrogate, Knaresborough, Ripon, &c., &c., where in most cases the reduction will be at least one-half, and in the more distant places much more than this amount of reduction, and in all which places an abundant supply of good and cheap coal is of the highest importance. The revenue to be realised from this source alone, it Is believed, will yield a most ample return for the capital required. Besides passing through the centre of this immense coal field, the railway traverses a district affording accommodation to a population of upwards of 335,000 inhabitants, and whilst affording every accom modation to this vast population, whose internal traffic must neces sarily be very great, it receives an additional indemnity from the relative position in which it stands to other lines, so that for Inter nal resources and external relations its advantages are almost un rivalled. This line affords the most direct communication from North to South, and will be a nearer route }Yam Huddersfield, Wakefield, Manchester, South Lancashire, Cheshire, and all parts of the South, to that much frequented waterim-place, Harrogate, and will form a most eligible line, with appropriate stations at Wakefield, Alver thorpe, Batley, Drighlington, Tong, Pudsey, Stanningley, Calverley, and Horsforth. The length of the main line will be about sixteen miles, and the branches six miles. . - i --....., ..... ...... The project s warmly supported by the landed and local interests, and by a large body of mercantile and wealthy individuals in the above districts, who, confident of a successful issue, will use every means for bringing the project before the Legislature next session. The Company reserve the power of making an extension front their line to Bradford, at the most convenient point for the convey ance of the minerals, U., if adequate provision be not made by another Company. The liability of each Shareholder will be restricted to the amount of Iris individual subscription, and interest will be allowed upon all calls after the rate of 4 per cent. per annum from the time tb• Act is btained. .

This Railway will commence at a suitable point of the Edinburgh branch of the Caledonian Rntinny, at or near Mid-Calder, and pro ceed westwards, by easy and convenient gradients, accommodating the populous towns and villages of Livingstone, Bathgate, Blackburn, intoten, and Clarkstone, to the Airdrie District, where it will form a junction with the existiag and projected lines to Glasgow and the West of Scotland. The populous district traversed by this Railway is one of the rich est in Scotland. It abounds in ironstone, coal, limestone, and other minerals ; and it only requires the advantages of railway accom modation to:develop its resources. The revenue, as a Mineral line alone, should suffice to yield the largest return legally - exigible by railway proprietors ; and when it Is considered that, by the junctions already referred to, this line will form a direct, short, and uninterrupted route between the cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, and connect East, West, and Mid Lothian, and the whole of the eastern counties of Scotland, not merely with Glasgow, bat with the counties of Renfrew, Ayr, Wigton, and Kirk cudbright, and their important seaports, it would be difficult to over value the present line as a great national undertaking. Te those acquainted with the district,3lt is unnecessary to point out the immense local importance of this line and its dependencies ; and to the inhabitants of Edinburgh, Glasgow, Greenock, and all the other towns in the east and west of Scotland, it would be super fluous to mention the advantages of such a line, whether as respects safety and comfort, or economy and expelitien ; but, for the benefit of those at a distance, it may be well to state that, while it avoids objectionable tunnels, viaducts, and other heavy works, it is also shorter, by at least one-sixth of the whole distance, than any other line between the cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, and will further be the means of conveying, without transhipment, passengers and goods from the east to the west coast. The largest proprietors along the line_ have already given their most cordial assent to this undertaking ; and there cannot be a doubt that, as it will meet the demands of the public, it will in due time receivwthiSanction of the Legislature.

The line of Railway intended to be constructed by this Company will commence at or near Norton Bridge (a station of the Grand Junction Railway), in the county of Stafford, and proceed from thence by Eccleshall, Oftley, Norbury, Forton, Newport, Donnington Wood, Oaken Gates, Priors Lee, Stirchley, Dawley, Madeley, and Iron Bridge, to Coalbrook-dale ; there, crossing the proposed " Wor cester and Crewe Railway," it will pass along the slope of Wenlock edge, by Rushbury and Eaton-under-Haywood, to Wistanstow, in the county of Salop, where it will run into, and form a junction with the " Shrewsbury, Hereford, and North Wales Railway." _ . The line will traverse a rich mineral district, and will have a secure and extensive traffic by the carriage of coal from the Shropshire coal-field, to a depot proposed to be formed at Wistanstow, for the suppW of South Shropshire, part of Radnorshire and Herefordshire, and also from whence it will be conveyed by the " Hereford, Shrews bury, and North Wales Railway," into Montgomeryshire and the neighbouring counties, where coal does not exist. It is impossible to calculate the extent to which this traffic may be carried, as by the direct railway communication thus opened between the Shropshire coal-field, and the important manufacturing towns of Newtown and Lianidloes, the price per ton will be reduced one-half at those places, and the flannel manufacturers, now depend ing upon water power, will, by the cheapness of coal, be enabled to employ steam, and to extend their trade in proportion to the great demand which exists for the Welsh flannels, in preference to any other. The importance of this subject will have its due weight with those who so often witness the bad effects upon the trade, caused by the stoppage of the mills from an insufficiency of water. A considerable amount of tonnage is now incurred by the Shrop shire ironmasters, for the conveyance of lime-stone from the neigh bourhood of Much Wenlock to the furnaces, by several transits of land and water carriage, whereas the proposed railway will convey it direct into the heart of the works, and at one-third of the expense. By its junction with the " Grand Junction" and the " Hereford and Shrewsbury" Railways, this line will form a direct communica tion between Liverpool, Manchester, Sheffield, York and Hull, and Swansea and South Wales. As a junction line alone (connecting as it will such important rail ways), s large passenger traffic may be depended upon, but when it Is considered that the centre of the line passes through a densely populated mining district, and the remainder through a thriving agricultural neighbourhood, it will be obvious that a sufficient local traffic exists to pay a highly remunerative interest on the amount of capital required to be embarked. The line, which will not interfere with any property of an orna mental or costly character, will not exceed 46 miles in length, and will be constructed at much less than the average cost. Such important local co-operation has been secured, that no oppo sition is anticipated or can be sustained against the measure. Thor liability of the Shareholders will be limited, by the Act, to the amount of their subscription to the capital stock ; and power will be applied for Wallow interest at the rate of four per cent. per annum on the ouseawkot the deposit, and upon the further calls, from the date of eachisnyznent Until the opening of tha line ; and the first deposit S(ft; Dodd, a call will not be made until the Act Al Ve t, Parliam.nl shall have ' ined.

The great difficulty, delay, and expense attending the transit of passengers and goods from Kingston to Montego Bay and the Inter mediate ports, either by sea or land, is well known ,to all persons c ,nversant with the island of Jamaica. The average passage by steamer between Montego Bay and Kingston occupies forty-four hours, and the costs, including expenses on the route, amount to nearly 51. each passenger ; while the quickest journey by land occupies three days, and the expenses, including horse hire, reach nearly 201. By the railway the whole line will be traversed in eight hours, at an expense not exceeding an average of 30s. per passenger. The difference in the freights between the northern and southern sides of the Island and England is such, that, independently of the saving of time, this railway will enable proprietors on the northern side, after payment of the costs of transit, to ship their produce at much less expense than at present, and will afford them the ad vantage of shipping at all times from the very excellent harbour of Kingston, Instead of being confined, as they now arc, to the exposed Ports of the east and north of the island. The line will commence at a spacious qUay, to be constructed at Kingston Harbour, with a depth of water sufficient for vessels of the largest tonnage employed in the export trade of the island, at or near which point It Is proposed to form a junction with the Kingston and Spanish Town Railway, and proceed thence by or near Rock Fort, Yallahs, Morant Town, Port Morant, Plantain Garden, Man chioneal Harbour, Port Antonio, Buff Bay, Annotto Bay, Port Maria, St. Ann's, Duncan, Martha Brae, and terminate at or near Montego Bay. By these means a line of intercommunication will be formed between the most important and populous places, and facility offered for carriage of the produce of the moot productive portion of the island. Through the southern portion of the line, the physical features are , gentle elevations, ahnost parallel to the principal range of mountains which run east and west, nearly the :length of the island; the east ern portion, from Port Mo ant to Plantain Garden, is almost level; while the northern runs through an exceedingly rich country, rising into hills separate from each other by spacious vales. The whole of the country traversed by the line abounds In the staple articles of sugar, coffee, rum, molasses, ginger, pimento, and other spices, dye woods, drugs, &c. ; and as more than one-third of the land is still un cultivated, the production of these articles will, by the increased facility for traffic, be greatly increased; and cotton indigo, cocoa, &c., and dye stuffs, at present uniniported, will again be brought into extensive cultivation. Timber of great variety abounds along the line; besides the pimento tree, which flourishes spontaneously : there are mahogany, lignum vital, ebony, Spanish elm, fine cedar, and other trees of enormous bulk. The line will also bring largely , into use the valuable palmetto, and various other woods for agricul tural and household purposes and cabinet works. The mineral wealth of the country - on the line is very considerable; lead ore is extremely rich, and heavily impregnated with silver ; whilst every variety of copper ore is found in abundance. Carbonate of lime, valuable as manure, &c., of which Long Mountain is com posed, will form a considerable item in the tables of traffic. The peculiarly favourable circumstances attending the construction of this Railway render it highly probable that a considerable portion of the capital demanded will not be required, as every material* ne cessary for its formation is to be found on the line, and should the atmospheric principle of propulsion be adopted, the necessity for cut tings and embankments will be generally superseded. A gratuitous grant of the unappropriated land required for the line, and the free use of all the timber, stone, &c., necessary for Its con struction, will, it is expected, be ceded by the Legislative Assembly ; the mineral wealth which may be developed by the construction of the line will accompany the grants of the land, and may be leased to capitalists for the benefit of the Shareholders. Of the various imports and the Internal traffic a satisfactory esti mate can scarcely be given. It will be sufficient to state that coals, fish, lime and salt, empty puncheons, shingles, bricks, hoops, lead, timber, provisions, cattle, flour, tobacco, hardwares, and manufac tures generally, form important sources of profit. The working expenses of the railway will require but ft moderate per centage, awl from all the circumstances already stated, and care ful inquiries into the traffic, there can be no doubt that this line of railway will yield a very remunerative return upon the capital re quired, and the speedy communication established between the Island and Great Britain, by means of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Com pany, will enable the Directors in this country to exercise an efficient control over the management of affairs in the Island. The Committee propose to make provision in the Local Act for the payment of four-and-a:half per cent. interest upon the amount paid upon the Shares from the passing of the Bill until the opening of the line. * Wood is prepared nearly as hard as iron, and in that climate is more durable.

SECRETARY—HiIton Jenkins, Esq. SOLICITORS. Potter and Collingridge, p, ; W. B. James, Esq., s:Basinglall-street. The geographical position of Worcester has caused its adoption as the point where the broad guage trunk lines of the west are to have a common terminus. From Oxford the Great Western Company have decided on constructing a line of rail :—another project under the pa tronage of the same powerful direction is ROW before the public, uniting Worcester with Warwick ; and, that the broad gauge will be carried from Worcester into Wales, and to the Irish packet stations on that coast, is now no longer doubtful. This undertaking will com plete a series of groat avenues of iron-road, whose ramification from Worcester will render every part of the kingdom directly accessible from that city. Passing up the Severn Vale, where it will disclose a succession of picturesque scenes, it reaches Stourport, and proceeding thence through Kidderminster, arrives at Bewdley. This district is one of the chief seats of our carpet manu factures, and in the towns here named, exclusive of the intervening districts, upwards e 30,000 persons are located. Leaving Stourbridge a little to the east, the line is taken to Bridgenorth, a town enjoying an active inland trade, and possessing woollen manufactures and iron works, that gives employment to a population of about 15,000. Pass ing through or near to Much Wenlock, Broseley, and Madeley, from which place there will he a branch to Shrewsbury, the line ascends Colebrook Dale, and approaching in its course Wellington and Wem, enters Whitchurch. From this central place a branch will be formed to Norwich via Stoke, forming a junction with the Liverpool and Crewe Railway. The trunk line will continue from Whitchurch, and passing through or near Malpas, have its northern terminus in the city of Chester. In estimating the probable amount of revenue which the Worces ter and Chester Railway may be expected to yield, many sources of profit present themselves, such are the dense population located along the length of the Severn Vale, and the enriching works of industry in which they are engaged. Amongst the latter may be mentioned the China manufactories of Worcester; the iron, coal, and earthen ware works at Broseley and other places ; the agricultural produce brought to Stourport market ; the inexhaustible fields of coal and mines of iron ore in the vicinity of Colebrook Dale, Iroubridge, and the districts to the east of Shrewsbury generally. . - In calculating the cost of construction unusual advantages are also obvious. The line traverses a district affording levels of several miles in extent, and with a surface peculiarly favourable. The resi dent population, disappointed by the postponement of promised pro jects, have warmly espoused the present, and the labouring popula tion being familiar with 'Aping operations, will be found better qualified for the execution of railway works here than in many other localities. _ _ _ Asa link in the railway network of England, or as auxiliary to existing or projected lines passing in various directions, few schemes hitherto proposed appear to afford greater inducement for investment, or a wider range of accommodation for traffic and travelling. This project constitutes a lengthened link in the chain that will connect Liverpool with Bristol, the grand trunk of the West of England ;—its southern terminus, Worcester, is the half way station of the London and Port Dynnliaen broad gauge line : by projected lines a direct communication will be afforded west ward to Swansea and Aberystwith, and, eastward, to Warwick and Northampton, Cambridge, Peterborough, Harwich, Lynn, Lincoln, ani Hull. The line has been repeatedly and carefully examined by the Com pany's acting engineer, who reports that the rail for many miles may be laid on the natural level—that the gradients are in every in stance favourable—that the geological structure of the districts to be traversed is equally so, and that the want of such a line of com munication is acknowledged by the interests seated on its proposed course.

The line will communicate with the Swanaington Railway either by means of the proposed Broughton Astley branch of the Midlands, or of a separate branch to be formed by this Company ; thereby opening the entire of the Leicestershire coal-field to the counties south-east of Leicester. The Directors, for the list few months, having used their best exertions for the interests of the Company, feel it their duty, now that the surveys, plans, and other arrangements are so far advanced, to acquaint their shareholders with the position and prospects of the undertaking. The Coventry, Bedworth, and Nuneaton line, which received the favourable report of the Board of Trade, and was before Parliament last session, forms part of the present projected plan for connecting Leicester, Coventry, and Birmingham. The Directors have, by personal inspection, accompanied by their engineer, satisfied themselves of the remarkable facilities presented by the district for executing the greater part of the line ; and from careful investigation the Directors have the pleasure of informing the shareholders that this undertaking eannot fail to prove a profitable investment if supported by local traffic only, and with the certainty that a through traffic from the eastern and western lines, combined with the great advantages afforded by the junction with the Trent Valley for the transit of goods to and from Liverpool, Scotland, Ire land, and the United States, its importance cannot be over estimated. From the extent of population accommodated by this railway —from the convenience afforded to the trade and manufactures of the Midland Counties—from the vast mineral resources of the dis tricts traversed, and from its position in regard to other important, established, and projected railways, the Directors feel confident that it will be amply remunerative to the Shareholder, and highly advan tageous to the public. The capital has been subscribed, and the Parliamentary deeds have been executed, and the preliminary survey completed. A list of a new and highly influential local direction, and a map of the line, will be published in a few days. By order, H. CASSIN, Secretary pro tern.

HUGHES, ESQ.-A second edition of this interesting work has just appeared, revised by the author, and containing an accu rate analysis of the reform in the constitution just promulgated, and bringing the history down to the present moment. In the notice of this book in Blackwood's Magazine, it is observed, This is the work of a man who has evidently passed a con siderable time in the Peninsula, and after becoming well acquainted with the language and habits of the people, has studied the peculiarities of their marine's, feelings, and institu tions with a keen and observant eye. Amidst the various parties and factions, the strange contradictions of the national character, the interminable web of intrigue and political marteuvre, how arduous the task to unravel the truth, to throw a clear light upon the state and prospects of Spain, and explain the complicated and hidden machinery by which many of the recent events in that country have been brought about. The task has been attempted in this work, and by no means without success. It is a book of much interest and utility—a book which from its liveliness and the amount of anecdote and light matter it contains, will be read by many who would shrink from the perusal of a mere dry statistical work." WHITE KNIGHTS ESTATE.—We are exceedingly glad to find that active measures for the improvement of this beautiful property are in operation. It is proposed, as will be seen by advertisement, to form a company, and thus at once raise such an amonnt of capital as will suffice to render the estate perfect by drainage, new roads, &c., so that buildings of a high class may instantly be commenced with every inducement that natu ral advantages and scientific improvements can offer. We hear that some influential capitalists have already subscribed for a large proportion, and there are strong reasons for believing that the remainder will find eager and respectable applicants. It cannot be doubted that this town is deeply interested in the success of the plan. The formation of an additional suburb, to be inhabited only by persons of adequate means and station, must cause a large amount of money to be expended in the town, besides conferring an additional attraction to visitors from a distance. Nor will the expenditure necessary for the erection of a series of villas, cottages, &c., be unattended with some benefit to the trade of Reading, both directly and indi rectly. To persons desirous of building a "home "in some spot where the advantag es of both town and country may be combined, we may in th words of sober truth challenge a com parison of White Knights with any other spot within fifty, of even a hundred miles of London. That houses, if built there, would let with unexampled rapidity, no one can for a moment doubt; in fact nothing is wanted but a vigorous and harm..nious effort, by which all the charms of this delig:,tful and unique property may be fairly ° developed. And when they are, as they wi.l be, by the resources of a company, the public will only wonder how it is that that which might have been done years ago could hive been overlooked until this time. There w 11 then be "a rage" for White Knights just in proportion to the neglect which has hitherto left it in obscurity.—Berkshire Chronicle, FORM OF APPLICATION.
