This line will diverge from the line of the Great Eastern 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 Hereford and Shrewsbury with North Wales. The communication by railway between these important towns and the continuous hop and cider districts has been entirely lett 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, Bromyard, 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 of3o 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 4/. 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.

The objects intended to be accomplished by this undertaking are— Firstly—The supply of local railway accommodation to the impor tant districts embraced by the line. Secondly—The benefit of railway communication with the metro polis to a district of country upwards of fifty miles In length at pre sent nnprovided with that accommodation. Thirdly-The completion of the chain of railway communication between the river Severn and the southern and western counties, and the north-eastern district of the kingdom and the river Humber and its ports, including that of Hull. Commencing at the town of Northampton, in conjunction with the London and Birmingtarn, and the lines of railway proposed to con verge at that town from Cheltenham, and the west from Worcester and from Warwick, the line will proceed in a direct course to the market town of Kettering, by which place all the companies compet ing for the line of railway between London and Manchester propose to pass. It will then proceed also in a direct course to the market towns of Uppingham, Oakham, and Grantham, on to Lincoln. The country lying between the towns of Northampton and Grant ham is wholly without existing or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to the south but also to the north. • At Lincoln the line will fork, and proceed, on the one hand, in a northerly direction to the flourishing port of Gainsborough, and, on the other, by a north-eastern course to the market town of Market Raison, on to the rising port of Great Grimsby. By a union with the Sheffield and Great Grimsby Junction Rail way at Marketßaisen, a direct and uninterrupted chain of communi cation will be established between all the above-mentioned districts and the town and port of Hull. The sources of traffic which this line will secure are various and rery 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 from thence to the metropolis, and also the southern and western districts of the kingdom, and, in addition, it will secure the important and increasing local traffic between that town and Market Reisen and Lincoln. From Gainsborough, the termini of several railways 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 Marketßaisen and proceed thereon to Lincoln. From Lincoln the whole of the traffic passing to the west and the and should the London and intermediate towns mustpass over this line. In tie event of the Cambridge and Lincoln Railway Company not obtaining their Bill, then the traffic from Lincoln to the south and west, and also the metropolis, will pass along this line of railway ; the former the whole distance, and the latter in any event to Grantham, efore will travel over or water-carriage York or k distance com poafnyabonouttstuwceeenetay,-fisuveehmtrialeffise; will proceed on to Kettering Or Northampton. The entire district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance railway ther of more than forty miles, and including the market towns of fric O accommodation , akln gh am and U at p l d p t n h g e h this line of railway, which will be In the direct course not only to the west but also to London. At Kettering this line will unite with that one of the 'tow com peting schemes passing that town from Manchester and Leicester to London, which shall be successful before Parliament. 1 ies without t a The country is free from engineering difficulties, with one or two exceptions only, and those are more than counterbalanced by the very favourable gradients of by far the greater portion of the line; indeed for many miles the line will run upon a water level. The line will not interfere with any ornamental property. The landowners on the line are favourable to the undertaking.

This Cempany is formed for making a railway from Liverpool t • 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 short distance of the Whiston Inclined Plane, and thence branch off, in a south-easterly direction, through Warrington, linutsferd, 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-six miles. It will be seen by reference to the map that this important line of railway will Ihrm the shortestroute from - Liverpool to London, and effect a direct chain otc.ommunieation between Liverpool and Derby, and will thence, by means of the Midlands and other railways, open 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 ansl Rugby, and London and Birmingham, will be only 188 miles, whereas by the present route it is 210 miles, and by the, Trent Valley Railway 200% miles ; effecting a saving of 22 miles in one instance, and 121 miles In the other. And as regards Liverpool and Derby, the whole distance between Liverpool and D:rby 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 sonnet more immediately two such important towns, especially when these towns are but the foci, as it were, for other railways from still more distant localities, as before adverted to. ' _ _ The distance also from Manchester to Leek (where the propcsed railway will unite with the Manchester and Rugby Dirtit Railway) will be about 30 miles, and from Leek to Derby about 26% miles, making the whole distance from Manchester to Derby only 56% miles ; and thus diminishing the distance by any 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 aline of railway embracing such beneficial results. But great as these results most 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 direct route front Liverpool to London. The distance from 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 the line as proposed by the Mane chester and Rugby Direct Railway, 58 miles, and from Rugby to London 83 miles ; thus making the whole distance from Liverpool to London 188% miles, 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. There are no engineering difficulties connected with the forming of the line. The deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the share holders beyond the deposit now paid until the Act of Parliament is obtained, and power will be taken in the Act to allow 41. per cent interest on all calls. Applications for detailed prospectuses, maps, and shares, may be made to the Secretary, at the offices, 28, Moorgate-street, London ; at Mr. Bethel's Offices, 78, King 'William-street, City, and at 22, Cross-street, Manchester, and the following Share brokers :—Messrs.

This railway has been projected for the purpose of affording tie most direct means of communisation between the counties of Nor folk, Suffolk, Cambridge, and the towns of Peterborough and Stam ford on the Great Trunk lines from London to York—and Notting ham and the North Midland and North Western Counties . The length of the proposed lino will be about thirty-three miles. It 15 intended to commence at the Stamford station of the Syston and Peterborough Railway, and following the direction of the river Wash, proceeded by Empinglit, Whitwell, and Hambleton, to Oakliam t n ; thence, at the foot of anksborough-hill, along the Valley to Burton-Lazarus, by the river Eye to Melton Mowbray; it will then proceed by llolwell, between Long Clawson and Nether Brough ton, to Melding, Kinoulton, and Oivtharpe, and thence by West bridgeford to the station of the Midland Counties Railway at Not tingham. . 1 In lieu of the present very circuitous and expensive route, it will open up the shortest and most advantageous communication between Norwich, Yarmouth, Lowestoft, Ipswich, Thetford, Bury St. Ed munds, Ely, Cambridge, Huntingdon, Peterborough, Stamford, and other important towns in the eastern counties, and Nottingham, Sheffield, Leeds, Stockport, Manchester, Liverpool, and the other manufacturing towns in the north midland and northern counties. In connexion with the Ipswich, Bury, and Ely, and Ely and Peter borough Railways, on the one side, and the Manchester, Buxton and Midlands Railway, on the other, this railway will complete the cheapest and most direct route from the Government Port of Har wich to Manchester, and Liverpool, &c., thus opening to that most important district the shortest and best communication with Holland and Germany. A glance at the map will show better than the most laboured description how advantageous this railway will be to the towns of Peterborough, Stamford, and Nottingham. The distance between Peterborough and Nottingham, by the Sys ton and Peterborough and Midlands Railway, will be 71N miles, and 1 from Stamford to Nottingham about 60 miles; by the Peterborough and Nottingham Junction Railway the distance to be traversed be tween those towns, will be about 45 miles ; and between Stamford and Nottingham about 33 miles; the saving thus effected being, in the former case, above one-third, and in the latter near half the dis tance, namely, upwards of 26N miles. To the rich agricultural coun ties of Norfolk, Suffolk, and Cambridge, and their populous towns, the saving of distance of the intercommunication with Nottingham, Sheffield, &c., will be equally great. It is obvious that the Peterborough and Nottingham Juuction Rail way, while prepared to maintain an independent position, witiblenGerm theless insure the co-operation and support of whichever Trunk Lines proposed to be constructed from London to b York n, inay b be v sanctioned by Parliament. It is calculated that NottinghamligiiLevwill,b, at this line, have a communication with the metropolis shortest route. i ) , least 16% miles than it possesses by the present. would sanction the con -1 It is difficult to conceive that Parliament *o ' atruetion of a " Direct Line" froui Siit , itigham to London, in addi tion to the existing Midlands Railway, and a Great Northern Trunk Line via Huntingdon and Peter borou g h ; nor would such direct line be productive of anything but unwarrantable injury to established interests, and loss to those embarking their property in it, supposing It did not eventually destroy all tile wholesome effects of competi tion. But all the arguments in favour of such a project are at once removed, when it Is proved that the most direct line from Notting ham to London that couk3 he made would be scarcely five miles shorter than that which would be available by means of the Peter borough and Nottingham Junction Railway. The traffic which this important junction line must command will be of the most profitable kind. The coal and other mineral traffic from the highly productive mineral districts already connected with Nottingham, and which, by this railway, will thence find the most convenient outlet to the counties of Norfolk, Cambridge, Suffolk, &c., will alone yield a considerable per tentage upon the capital. Of the immense traffic in the conveyance of merchandise from Nottingham and the manufacturing districts to the south-east, and of agricultural produce, &c.,_ from the latter through Peterbi a iro t ag i lt s to the North Midland and Northern Counties, it is evidentthth line will, from the convenience it offers, sectire ,bi a proportion . i l ,l a t r o g r e et • Oakham, The passenger traffic between Peterborough, ve S t, and irrespective Melton Mowbray, and Nottingham, is v er y of the accommodation and profit that N ' V t ie t 1 i l g o S i t , ' C a ° from file communication, alone warrants the cong a line. e e thorough The Provisional Committee have 1 l ra i t ‘ he i v have received from those pleasure in stating that the encouragement and su parties who, from local res i gi r i t ' l ea c Lest able to form a judgment of the hi n c d an intimate knowledge of the resources of the country. merits of the proposed linea,martelsactst_aisitltosldionicie f t o h r e w m , t , t t ) c a t p rot lac 0 1 t r h . confidence to Parliament in the en a. porate the Company. . . l l i ly ties su ,, n l - i e l y eb ed th th e c co li t n a e l: The Company's actieg and his report Is very satisfac tory eni: n r s h t a :t s tl e le ar f e a f el irolosed railway.

It commences at the Farnborough station of the South-Western Rail way, crossing the Great Western line between Slough and Maiden head, and terminates on the Oxford and Rugby line of railway at Ileyford, beyond Oxford, on the route to Birmingham, accommo dating in its course, Bracknell, Sunning-hill,Bagshot, Ascot, Windsor, Great Marlow, High Wycombe, Princes Risborough. Theme, iticester, and many other places at present without railway communication. It will form the most direct route from London to Banbury, War wick, and Birmingham, and by the Grand Junction Railway to Man chester, Liverpool, Lancaster, and Carlisle, and by the Caledonian Chester, Birkenhead, to Glasgow and Edinburgh ; a lso from Crewe to o t o n So 'v u i t t l it t Birkenhead, and Holyhead, thus opening the most direct communica tion with Dublin. C w he il l l tei a , l h s a o m by an t d he ox b fo ra r n i c l h ine t , o f. the Cheltenham irlin'°°thcisetmmoks't dinirecctornonnetile Wales, Waterford, and the south of Ireland, as well as by the Ox ford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton line to Worcester, and conse quently to all the central portion of Wales, thus forming the shortest route to all Wales and Ireland. The length of this line will not exceed 64 miles, and it will save an average distance of 14 miles to each of the before-mentioned places, as compared with the route now traversed by the Great Western Railway. It is satisfactory to state that there are no engineering difficulties, and that the land is the least valuable of any in the coun ties through which this line is intended to pass, avoiding, as it does, parks and ornamental property. To the advantages offered to the above places, by saving about fourteen miles in the transits to London, must he added that of con necting them with the South-Western and the Reading and Reigate lines, affording passengers an opportunity of proceeding to South ampton, Portsmouth, Isle of Wight, Dover, Brighton, and all adls cent places, without the necessity of passing through the metropolis, thereby saving much time and inconvenience. It will be seen from the f‘rep:oing facts that the formation of lis line will afford very great advantages to nearly all parts of E t n i, g e m e n e_ Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, as it will rnaterislly 11""tt:ther and livery of their many marketable products hy open t in o g much to ex more direct route to London.

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-Besworth 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 branch to 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 to Sheffield, when the Sheffield and Chester field branch of the North Midland Railway is made. The Rugby; Derby, and Manchester Railway, in connexion with the Oxford and Rugby, and Oxford, Southampton, and Gosport Rail way, forms a direct Manchester and Southampton line. THE GREAT ADVANTAGES Of the Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway, over the other pro jects into Manchester, among oth.rs, are— _ First. That there are only seventy-five miles of railway to be made in place of one hundred and eighty-nine. Second. That it is a more direct line from London to Manchester than even the proposed direct lines. Third. That it interferes with no existing railway property or vested interests. Fourth. That it passes through a District rich in manufactures, 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 vicinity--has been hitherto left to tally without railway communication. Fifth. That it passes through the towns in its route, instead of avoiding them. Sixth. That the whole line of railway from Rugby to Manchester will be 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 stending orders of Parliament will be lodged With the parish clerks, the clerks of the peace for the counties, and the Parliamentary offices, on the 10th of November next, being twenty days 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 LoAdon and Bir mingham Railway; also, of 2,000 shares to the shareholders in the Oxtord, Southampton, and Gosport Railway Company ; of 1,000 shares to the Oxtord and Rugby Railway Company ; and 2,000 shares to the Manchester and Birmingham Railway Company.
