Since the formation of the Company for making this railway, and the allotment of the Shares for that part of the line between Chelms ford and Bury, the practicability, paramount importance, and supe rior advantages of its plan have been so unequivocally recognised by the Board of Trade, and by the Committee of the House of Commons for the railways of Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk, that the Provisional Committee have determined to now, at once, adopt the extension of their line, originally projected, from Bury to join the Norwich and Brandon line at Thetford; thereby to complete the shortest and best communication between London and Norwich, in the direction of the old road, through all the chief central towns of Essex and Suffolk, and at the same time to open a very direct communication with the great trunk lines of the north and west. For these important objects, to be secured by an extension of only 12 miles, to connect Bury St. Edmund's and Thetford, the Provisional Committee propose to increase the capital 250,0001., by the issue of 10,000 additional shares; and, for full particulars of the entire plan, refer to their original prospectus. The Chelmsford and Bury line not having been projected in time to bring it before parliament in the present session in a substantive form, it has been but imperfectly, and merely incidentally, in opposing other lines, that its merits could be at all brought under the notice of the Board of Trade or of the Committee of the House ; but the strong impression made, notwithstanding, in its favour, is obviously appa rent, both in the reports of the one and in the decisions of the other. The Board of Trade, in stating the considerations upon which it ad vised the rejection of the Norwich Direct line, reported (March 4th, 1845) that " It is necessary to advert to a railway called the Chelms ford and Bury Railway, projected, but not brought before Parliament, the plan, and section, and traffic tables of which have been submitted to the Board of Trade. This railway appears to us to accommodate a mere populous district than that intended to be traversed by the London and Norwich Direct Railway. Its section shows that it may be done at a moderate cost ;" (while) "there is a strong local feeling in its favour, evinced by the memorials which have been re ceived by the Board of Trade from the inhabitants of Braintree, Halstead, Sudbury, and other places between Chelmsford and Bury." The Committee of the House of Commons have since not only rejected the Norwich Direct and Bury and Cambridge lines, but the Chairman (Lord Sandon), previous to giving a decision against the Norwich Direct, took occasion to observe that "the Committee was decidedly in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury scheme." To these public testimonials in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury line, the novisional Cemmittee have the satisfaction of aiding, that by a special arrangement with the solicitor of the Eastern Counties Railway, they are assured of the concurrence and good offices of that important Company in the formation of their line. In allotting their original Shares, the Provisional Committee ne cessarily rejected numerous applications, of which it may be pre sumed' that a considerable number were from parties as highly re spectable as any of those to whom Shares could then be given; and in the distribution of the additional Shares a reasonable preference will be given to original applicants, as well as to original Share holders.

The promoters of this Railway, encouraged by the favourable sup port which has been given to the project, and in compliance with various recommendations they have received, ha-e determined upon the addition of a branch to Birkenhead, which, although it will manifestly tend to the advantage of the Shareholders and the public, will be attended with comparatively little additional outlay. The project will still retain its chief characteristic of a direct railway, and by its connexion, near Warrington, with the Grand Junction any, is sufficiently co mprehensive, w i thout resor ti ng t o a corn - C o o ica mp tedsy system of branch lines, or materially conflicting with the in terests of existing companies. minster Mr. William Meyrick, 2, Pumice's Inn, London Mes3rs. Rose and Messrs. Tindal, Aylesbury Messrs. Hearn and Nelson, and Mr. Henry Smith, Buckingham The object of this undertaking is to supply railway communication to the towns and districts lying between the London and Birming ham, and the Great Western Railways, giving them the best means of access to the metropolis, and connecting them also with the Northern and Eastern lines of railway, as welt as with Oxford and the South." The main line will commence from the London and Birmingham Railway, near Harrow, and passing to the north of Uxbridge, will proceed up the VallebChalfont, near Amersham and Chesham to issenden and Wendover, t and hence to Aylesbury ; from which place it will extend to Buckingham, and passing near Winslow, and approaching Brackley, will terminate by a Junction with the proposed Warwickshire and London Railway, near Banbury. In addition to the line above described, it is intended also to con struct a Railway ftom the central station of the London and Bir mingham Railway at Wolverton to Buckingham, and thence through Bicester to Oxford ; and in connexion with the line here proposed, the Bedford, and London and Birmingham Company, intend to make a connecting line between Bedford and Wolverton. The proposed Buckingham and London and Birmingham Railway Company (for the construction of a line from Wolverton to Bicester) is amalgamated with this Company. Accurate surveys of the country have been taken by Mr. Robert Stephenson, and it has been ascertained that no engineering difficulty of importance presents itself. The undertaking has already received the sanction and support of a very large proportion of the Nobility, Gentry, and Proprietors of land through or near whose property it is intended to pass. It is proposed that these lines should be made with the co-operation, and under the direction and superintendence of the London and Birmingham Railway Company ; under a lease, in perpetuity, at four per cent. per annum on the outlay, with a conditional arrange ment as to the surplus profits. It is intended to offer the shares in such proportion as the amount of capital will allow of, to the holders of shares in the London, Worcester and South Staffordshire Railway Company, subject to the approbation of the Committee of Management, with the exception °Minch as may be required for parties having local interests. B UCKINGHAM and LONDON and BIR MINGHAM RAILWAY. The public are respectfully informed that the Company for con structing the BUCKINGHAM and LONDON and BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY is amalgamated with the BUCKINGHAMSHIRE RAILWAY COMPANY. Any parties locally interested, who have applied for Shares in the Buckingham and London and Birmingham Company, and who may wish to take Shares in the Buckinghamshire Company, are re quested to make application on or before the 20th day of August instant, to any of the solicitors of the Buckinghamshire Railway. In consequence of the arrangements with the Buckinghamshire Railway Company, no Shares can be allotted except to parties locally uterps' 1. The line will commence at the city of Chester, and proceed by way of Trafford, Frodsham, and Preston Brook, to Warrington, thence by Lymm and Stretford direct to Manchester. From a point on the main line, near Frodsham, a branch will be taken to join the Chester and Birkenhead Railway, so as to unite Manchester in the most direct manner possible, with the docks now being formed at Bir kenhead. As Manchester, from its geographical position, is the centre of rail way communication between Scotland and the most populous dis tricts of England, so Chester, from a like cause, is the great centre of ra ilway communication between the capitals of Ireland and of Eng land. To congect these two points by a direct and independent. line of railway must, therefore; be of the utmost importance, not only in a local point of view, but to the whole commercial intercourse of the country. This line will be the most direct route, by Holyhead, to Ireland, and will be, in all respects, by far the preferable channel of inter course and transit between Ireland and the great manufacturing dis tricts of England. By the railways connecting Chester with Wrex ham, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester, and South Wales, this will be the nearest route from Manchester to the south-western parts "of England, and to the mineral districts of Monmouth and Glamorgaushire. The communication with Bristol, Gloucester, and Exeter will be speedy and direct. On reference to the map, it will be seen that a very considerable distance will be saved by this line, as compared with the present circuitous routes by Crewe and by Birkenhead; the former being 52 miles, and the latter 46 miles, while the proposed line is only 31 miles, saving in the one case 18 miles, and in time other 12 miles, besides the serious inconvenience, loss of time, and expense of passing through Liverpool, and crossing the water at that place.

This line of railway Is intended to connect Leicester and the Mid land Counties with the miulng districts of South Staffordshire, and to open a direct communication with the Staffordshire Potteries and the great towns of Liverpool and Manchester. • It will commence at Leicester, and running through or near to Market Bosworth, will join the Trent Valley Railway near its inter section with the Birmingham and Derby Railway at Tamworth, affording from thence a direct communication by way of LichtieLl, to Walsall, Wolverhampton, Dudley, &c. ; and thence by the Grand Junction and North Staffordshire Railways to Liverpool, Manchester, and the Potteries. The most direct through traffic will be conveyed by this Line from Leicester to the important Railway points of Tamworth and Lich field, and consequently the nearest access will be obtained to the immensely populated Iron and Coal Districts of South Staffordshire, the Western Counties of England, and the great shipping town of Liverpool. The length of the line will be about 24 miles. It has been care fully surveyed, and reported to be well adapted to form an excellent and direct communication between Leicester and Tamworth, at less than the ordinary expense of construction. The Capital intended to be raised is 400,0001., divided into 20,000 Shares of 201. each ; a deposit of 21. 2s. per Share will be required to be paid upon the allotment, to the credit of the Directors, in account with the Bankers of the Company. The Parliamentary Contract and Subscribers' Agreement will be required to be duly executed, when the Banker's receipts are ex changed for Scrip Certificates, of which due notice will be given ; and the Deposits paid by parties making default in the execution of the Parliamentary Contract and Subscribers' Agreement within the time limited, will be absolutely forfeited. A preference will be given in the allotment of the Shares to parties locally interested in the Line, and to Shareholders In the Trent Valley Railway.

It is confidently expected that this line will be the precursor of another scheme, of no ordinary importance—namely, to render Chester an efficient port for large vessels. This subject was entdrtained by Sir John Rennie in 1835, and sub sequently, in the same year, by the late Mr. Chapman, who wrote an able report upon the capabilities of the river Dee. It was again and the practicability of forming a good navigable channel for vessels together,lB3bY Sir John Rennie and Mr. George Remington, with docks at Chestsr, was then fully and investigatedo l f e a la r r l yg ed b established. ur' ei ini The entrance channel would commence at Dawpool. which is easy of access (and infinitely preferab'e, in point of access and safety, to the docks at Liverpool or Birkenhead), for vessels of large burden, during eight hours every tide, both at springs and neaps ; and the till of the lock would be sufficiently low to admit vessels drawing 20 feet water to enter at all tides. This railway, therefore, in connexion with the proposed docks, will render to Chester and Manchester incalculable advantages. To the former it will restore the proper position natural to so important a city ; to the latter it will give another outlet, by sea, to the ma nufacturing districts, free of the heavy port charges, dues, and risks to which the produce is now subject. It has not been thought advisable to combine the two objects in one company at present, but should it be found requisite, the two may hereafter be amalga mated. Merits of no ordinary degree, therefore, may fairly be claimed for this railway, whether taken in connexion with the proposed docks, or as standing alone, combining as it does all the advantages of any other lines, with this great addition, that it will be the high road to the most convenient outport of Manchester, and will be quite inde pendent of any associations or influences that might tend to oppose the growing desire for a moans of direct and Independent communi cation between Manchester and the port of Chester. The line has been careflilly examined. There are no difficult earth-works to be encountered ; on the contrary it will be cheap, and of easy formation. Power is reserved to the Committee to de•. viate ftom the proposed line in the vicinity of Manchester, should ulterior arrangements render it expedient.

The rich agricultural and mineral districts of Devon and Cornwall will have similar advantages, and London will be connected with the City of Exeter, and the ports of Plymouth, Falmouth (the packet sta tion of the empire), and Penzance, by the shortest and most direct course. The proposed line will also unite the western districts of the kingdom with Wales and the north and north-eastern counties, and be to the Great Western Railway that which the Trent Valley is to the London and Birmingham and Grand Junction Railways.

RAILWAY FROM MACCLESFIELD, passing close to the Towns of Leek, Cheadle, and Uttoxeter, to the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield. PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED. The Line will commence at the Terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and passing by the Rudyard Reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the .Churnet Valley to Consall; thence close to Cheadle and Tean, and by Uttoxeter, Bagots Woods and Abbots Bromley down the Blythe, to a point on the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield, communicating near there with one of the proposed lines from Dudley or Wolverhampton. A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct line for the London and Manchester traffic, uniting these two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railways, will completely accommodate the local traffic, and throw open several extensive Coal fields and some thousand acres of Wood land to Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the kingdom. This Line is also in some of its principal features the same as that already approved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the Churnet Valley Company—will not comprise more than fifty miles of Railway, and passing through the centre of the unoccupied part of the district, does not interfere with the Grand Junction or any ether existing Railway. This and the proposed Line from Crewe to Derby will also well accommodate the Potteries, giving to that important locality a direct route to London, Birmingham, and the South, to Liverpool and the North, and to Derby and the East, and will also afford a transit for the Eastern counties traffic from Derby to Manchester. The co-operation of almost all the principal landowners from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield having been ob tained, this portion of the line may be considered as secure. A mast influential Provisional Committee, consisting of land• owners and manufacturers, and others locally interested, will shortly be published. In the meantime references may be made to Matthew Gaunt, Esq., Highfield House, Leek ; or to Thomas Tumor, Esq., Abbots Bromley near Uttoxeter. RAILWAY: OF G REAT WESTERN BENGAL. The Provisional Committee announce to the Applicants for Shares in this Company, that the Allotment is completed ; and, at the same time, take this opportunity of informing the Applicants who may not receive Letters of Allocation, that in consequence of the great re quest by parties of respectability for the few Shares to be allotted in this country, the Provisional Directors have been compelled to re fuse many parties to whom they would otherwise have gladly made allotments, and to beg them to accept this announcement as the re ply to their applications. The Provisional Directors are desirous of informing the parties to whom Shares are allotted, that the following resolution has been unanimously agreed to by the Board : " That interest after the rate of 4 per cent. per annum shall be paid upon the Ist day of January, and Ist day of July in each year, 'upon all calls paid up, on Shares duly registered for that purpose, to be paid until the opening of the Railroad at Calcutta, and that powers be token in the Deed for that purpose, and that the liability of Sub scribers shall be limited to the amount of their several subscriptions."

This old, this ancient, and renowned inn has been paralysed by the railways, and, like its unlucky neigh bours at Hounslow, cannot complain of having too much to do. It is now placed with Mr. George Robins to sell or let, or dispose of as he thinks fit, and we have his authority for asserting a very good living is still to be made there by means of civility and industry. For in stance, beside a little coaching and some posting, they have three or four flys constantly in employ. Very fre quently little snug dinners, a constant social evening party of the neighbours, anti during the season the Four-in-Hand Club (that has numbred fifty years at this respectable old establishment) have eight or ten dinners, for which they pay well, and keep their own wine deposited there, in cellars of tine temperature, for which they pay a good yearly rent. Then the appoint ment of the post-office adds twenty or thirty pounds a year to the" ways and means," besides so- much of addi tional respectability. Poor old Harvey, better known as " Peter," was, during his reign, one of the first al tisffs as a man cork in the kingdom ; indeed, so good, that George the Fourth used to send for him on great occa sions; lie it was who invented the celebrated sauce known by his name, he was always accounted a very obliging and very intelligent man, full of wit, and a great pet with the Club. It is reported of him, that some twentv-fiva years ago, Mr. George Robins was dining there at a. Cte-a- Cie dinner with one relation only, that after having, partaken of many of the good things of our host, Peter, in quired what other delicacy tin y could think of, something to be very reale; die, and being told they had already feasted bountifully, he said he had in his mind's eve a dish they could not resist, eve that would rextwe the dying cube's qf a dtparting appt.te, and this was nothing more nor less than a Maintenon cutlet, done in Peter's best style. It must not be omitted to state a fact that will demonstrate the Black Dog is not on his last legi— on the day of the Ascot Cup, our fair hostess of the inn received a sum exceeding one hundred pounds.
