The Sun. — London, England, 1845-10-13 00:00:00

E SUN', LONDON, MONDAY EVE NANG OCTOBER 13, 1845 will be entirey obviated, and manufacturers and merchantsin most parts of the country, west and north, or south, will be thus en-. ablcd to for ward and receivegoods direct frt.m and to Dover and Folkstone, avoiding the present inconvenient mode and expense of transference from railway to railway across London. Any attempt to distinguish the number of passengers proceed ing to or from London, or the provinces apd the continent by the South Eastern and Dover Railway, would be abortive; but the published statements of that Company show that the tratlic ex. coeds 8,0001. weekly, and the accounts of arrivals at , and departures from Calais, Boulogne, and Ostend, exhibit an astonishing number of persons as passengers to and from England weekly, by Dover and Folken tone, throughout the whole of the y ear. Yielding to the metropolis - one.half of the number a, a large proportion, the remaining half wit belong to the provinces and Ireland, who will probably prefer to be conveyed from or to their localities without the annoyance of being compelled to pass through London, es pecially as the saving of distance alone will considerably diminish cape nses. The construction of this line of railway can hardly fail to meet the full approvol of the Government ; as, besides its great com mercial utility, the convenience it will afford fir the speedy Iran. sport of troops from Ireland, or the north, south, or west of Eng land to Dover, in a direct manner, avoiding the present necessity of marching them across London or ether towns, after they are once placed in railway carr4s, must begreatly appreciated ; and where it is expedient that expedition and secrecy should be observed in the removal of troops, the means offered by this Company will greatly assist the authorities in facilitating their objects. The railways already constructed or projected with which this line of railway will effect a union or communication, and recipro cate, advantages exceed fifty in number (as will be seen by examin ing any railway mop), and all of them must be in direct commu nication with, and will feed, or be fed by The Southern Counties Union, and Bristol, Bath, and Dover D irect Railwa y ; the most important junctions being those leading to this line from the north and the manufacturing districts by Oxford to Dover and Brighton, those from Ireland, North Wales by Cheltenham or Oxford and this railway to Dover or Brighton, and those from the south and west of Etiglanri by Salisbury to Dover ; thus effecting a con tinuance and direct intercourse with nearly every part of Eng land, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and the continent. The census returns show that this railway will pass through a country containing a population of upwards of one million, and this number, though large, may be fairly multiplied several times, if all the other parts of the kingdom which wilt benefit by it be con. sidered. With these facts before them, the promoters have not deemed it necessary to put forth estimator of traffic; the soundness of the project being guaranteed by the truths already given in this brief exposition, and the great objects intended to be compassed by this Company.

(Provisionally Registered.) . and from Warwick, the Ene will proceed in a direct course to the market town of Kettering, by which place all the companies com peting for the line of railway between London and Manchcr ter pro pose to pass. It will then proceed, also, in a direct course to the market towns of Uppincham, Oakham, and Grantham, to Lincoln. The country lying between the towns of Northainpten and Gran tham 13 wholly without existing or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to the south, but I.so to the north. At Lincoln the line will fork, and proceed on the one hand in a northerly direction to the fioutkhing pert of Gainshorough, and on the other by a north-eastern course to the market town of Market Ilaisen, on the rising port of Great Orittsby. By an union with the Sheffield and Great Grim - shy Junction Rail way at Market Rotten, a d rect and-uninterrupted chain of commu nication will be established between all the above-mentioned district: and the town and port of Hull. The sources of traffic which this line will secure are var:ous and very considerable ; some of them only can be here enumerated, viz.:— Starting from Great Grimsby the line will appropriate to itself the whole of the traffic thence to the metropolis, and also the southern and western districts of the country,' and, in additon, it will secure the important and increasing local traffic between that town and Market Raison and Lincoln. From Gainshorough, the terininl of several ralways from the north and north-west, this line will carry the traffic to Lincoln, its county town. The traffic from Hull to the metropolis, and also to the west, will enter upon this line at Market Raison, and proceed thereon to Lincoln. From Lincoln the whole of the traffic passing to the west and the intermediate towns must pass over this line. In the event of the Cambridge and Lincoln Railway Company not obtain'ng the'r Bill, then the trnffic from Lincoln to the south and west, and also the metropolis, will pass along this line of railway ; the former the whole distance, and 111 e latter at any event to Gran tham, a distance of about twenty-five miles ; and should the London and York Company not succeed, such traffic will proceed on to Ket tering or Northampton. The cull. c district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance of more than forty miles, and including the market towns of Oakham and Uppingham, is without railway or water-carriage accommoda tion, and the whole of its traffic therefore will travel over this line of railway, which will be in the direct course not only to the west but (Provisionally Itegist , red.)

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 point to which several other projected ralways converge, and will proceed through or near to Leamington, Warwick, Stratford-on-Avol, Evesham, Tcwkeshury, and Chelten' am, 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 a very large amount of local and through traffic, and a highly-re munerative return upon the capital invested. By means of existing and proposed railways, it will form a complete chain of railway com munication between the whole of the m:dland and north-eastern counties ofEngland, the populous cities and towns before-named, and the southern and western districts, and limo bring Leicer.ler, Not tingham, Newark, Lincoln, Gainstorough, Great Grimsby, and Ilull, 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 much-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 afford the utmost fa cility of access to the Innumerable visitors who, attracted as well by the beauty of the scenery as the memory of Shakspearo, annually resort to Stratford-on-Avon. To those passengers from the east and north-east, direct to Glou- Gloucester, the line front 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 scentry and invigorating atmcsphere 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 eniance, and restore its trade to its former state of prosperity. Mae value of this line to the city and port of Gloucester cannot be too highly estimated, as it will not only open to It immense sources of traffic front the whole of the eastern and north-eastern counties, but will very materially lessen the distance between it and Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire, making Gloucester still more securely the nearest and most accessible outlet for the whole of that hmnensely 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 form an important juncCon between the London and Birmingham :and Midlamis 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 e.•.st 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 op lcultural districts of Warwickshire and Wor • ccstershire, in the manufacturing towns and ports of the north. The line will be easy of construction, traversing, as it does, through nearly its whole length, the 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 will consequently he very great in addition to the through traffic, which on such a line must necessarily be very extensive. The ProvisionalCollmittee reserve to themselves the pcwer to ama l g amate with any other company as to the whole or say 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., is shares of 201., upon which a deposit of 21. 2s. per s:lare 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 t• allow interest at the rate of 4/. per ccnt.per annum on the amount of the deposit, and upon the re spective calls, from the date of each pument until the opening of the line. The Subscribers' Agreement and the Parliamentary Contract will be required to be duly executed when the bankers' receipts are ex changed for certificates of scrip, of which due notice will be given ; and the deposits paid by persons making default in due execution of the Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract within the time to be limited by such notice, will be absolutely forfeited. Forms of application for shares, prospectuses, and a map of the line, may be obtained from the Solicitors, or the Secretary, at the Offices of the Company, 28, Essex-street, Strand, London, or Mira any of the undermentioned Sharebrokers; but no application will be attended to unless accompanied by a reference to one of the Prov - sional Committee, the Solicitors, or a Banker.

The principal object this Company has in view is, the completion of a line of railway tkroughout the entire South-Western and Eastern Coasts of England, and it is well known that coast lines of railway invariably meet with the support of Government, anal seldom has any Company come before the public with objects which are so mani festly to the interest of the executive cordially to support. • The coast line will be completed thus, by commencing at Dover, anal using the South-Eastern line to a point on it beyond Folkstone, near to Newington, from thence it will proceed to the populous towns and watering places of Samdgate, Ilythe, Dymehurch, New Romney, and Lydd, and thence on to Rye ; sit Rye it will join the branch which the South-Eastern Company have an Act for making frosts Ashford (via Rye) to Hastings ; but should the South-Eastern Company decline to make this branch, this Company will then, continue their line on to Hastings, and thereby forming, a junction with the Brighton and Hastings Rail way, effect the object sf the Company, viz., an entire and unbroken chain of Coast Railway from Dover to Brighton, Portsmouth, Southampton, Poole, Dorchester, Exeter, Plymouth, and Falmouth. The advantages which such a line presents are too numerous and apparent to need tuumeration. The traffic tables, got up with infinite labour and care by the Brighton and Hastings Company, show a very large remuneration on the capital invested in that railway, and whatever applies to that line of railway, applies with:equal, if not greater force, to a continua tion line from Hastings to Dover. To the pre-eminently important agricultural district of Romney Marsh, this line offers advantages which It was most unduly deprived of by the contention between the London and Brighton and the South-Eastern Companies, which resulted in the interest of the Lon don and Brighton stopping suddenly in a terminus at Hastings ; and, on the other hand, the South-Eastern carrying a branch from Ashford to Hastings, thus leaving the whole of Romney Mersh entirely un provided with a speedy and ready mode of transit for the immense produce of that valuable district, as welt to Bs. cast as to the west, which are alike supplied by it with cattle. By this line the large and wealthy graziers of the Marsh will be enabled to effect the object they have had so long in view, of sending their stock at once, in good con dition, speedily and cheaply to and from the London and other mar kets. The line is one of singular facilities of construction, the whole of the Marsha being perfectly good and sound ground for railway purposes, and the entire absence of interposing difficulties which occur in nearly every other line of railway will render this one comparatively cheap in its construction. The inhabitants of Sandgate, Burmarsh, Hythe, New Romney, Lydd, and Rye, have sprung forward most z ealously to support this company, as affording them facilities they are so justly entitled, nom their position, to demand. A most powerful company has come before the public for making a railway from Cheltenham to Brighton, by means of which line, and others before enumerated, a direct and expeditious course is opened between the whole of the eastern, western, and midland, ports of England, and the important mercantile and naval stations on the south coast of England. From the estimates prepared, it is confidently - anticipated that the whole of the proposed capital will not be required. The line will be twenty miles in length, but if the South-Easters branch as ta between II stings and Rye, she line will be then twenty- Company do not carry out so much of their Ashford and Hastings six miles in length. Until an Act of Parliament can be obtained, the affairs of this company will be under the control of a board of Managing Direc tors, to whom power is given to allot the shares, and to apply the funds of the Company in payment of all expenses incurred in its formation, and in the preparation of plans and sections to be sub mitted to Parliament. Power will be applied for In the Act, and in the meantime is beseby given to the managing directors em above, to alter or vary the d o cks, piers, wharfs. or jetties, or enter into any arrangement proposed capital either before or after allotment, and to rats t any additional cap tal, to abandon any part of the line, to make branch o a c of th e with any other Company or Comprunes,and also to nominate the first ns, directors of the Company, prospectuses, coniimi,) 7Ld . et 3 a , i A le i d de = i n ,.. - e a r t a :hare;, te w alk, City, London; it the Offices of the Company's solicitors, MEWS.
