This line has been projected for the purpose of forming the most direct communication id4tween Birmingham and the Midiaad Coun ties, and the important and rising port of Aberystwith and the sea coast of Wales. It is intended to commence at the junction of the Welch Midland and Stour Valley R a il ways ( b ot h of which have pro jected lines to Birmingham ), between Kidderminster and Bewdley, and proceed from thence through Cleobury Mortimer to Ludlow, where it will form a junction with the Worcester • and Portdyiallaen and Bridgnorth, Lu dlow, and Wolverhampton Railways. From Ludlow it will follow the line of th e present mail road, along the Valley of the Teme to Knighton, from which place it is intended to throw off a branch to the Craven Arms, to run into the Shropshire Mineral Railway, which has . its terminus at that place. The line will proceed from Knighton jo Llanidloes, where it will join the projected Manchester ami :c.herAtwith • Ilallway, and prOcetti akm for the re mainder of the distance. The use of all projected lines being thus sought for, the part to be made will not exceed sixty miles ; and as surveyors are already upon the line, the plans, &c., will all be ready to go to Parliament in the ensuing session. The advantages of the present line over any other projected rail way between Birmingham and Aberystwith are :—That it is the most direct route b‘tween the respective termini; that it passes through a district at present unprovided with railway accommoda tion ; that by it and the Birmingham, Stamford, and Boston lines, a regular chain of railway communication is opened between St. George's Channel and the German Ocean; that it will open the slate mines of Cardiganshire, and the limestone of Radnorshire to Shrop shire, and the whole the midland counties ; while, on the ether hand, by the branch from the Craven Arms, the coals of Shropshire will be brought, into Radnorshire, Montgomeryshire, and Cardigan shire, where that article does not ,exist, at little more than one-third of its present cost. From these • and other sources of traffic it must be obvious that a high rate 'ef interest upon the capital embarked may be depended upon. The line throughout the whole distance meets with the most influ ential local support, so as to ensure its complete success. There are no engineering difficulties of any magnitude, and no ornamental property will be invaded. Should the atmospheric pinci ple be hilly tested and be found to answer, it will be adopted on this line. . . The responsibility of the shareholders will be limited to the amount of their subscriptions, and p,werxill be taken in the Act to allow in terest at four per cent. on the calls.

Jones, Esq. The pert of Boston affords the readiest outlet for exports front the manufacturing districts to the north of Europe, and the importance of direct communication from the midland counties to a place se ad vantageously situate cannot be over-estimated. Leicester has, or shortly will have, direct communication with Birmingham, and all the other important towns in the midland district. . _ The Midland Railway Company is extending the communication to Melton Mowbray, by means of its branch from Syston to Peter borough, which passes through that place. There is also a completo line of railway about to be established from Nottingham, through Grantham and Pelkingham, to Boston, as well as to Spalding, Wis beach, Lynn, Yarmouth, and other important towns in the eastern eount . . . The Leicester, Melton Mowbray, and Boston Direct Union Rail way, by forming a line from Melton Mowbray to Folkingham, will supply the only link wanting to complete a direct through communi cation from Birmingham, Warwick, Worces'er, Coventry, and the manufacturing districts generally, to Boston, as well as by means of existing and projected railways from Wales and the Bristol Channel, to that seaport. _ . . . The lenith of the proposed line will not exceed twenty-six miles; and as it will pass through a country very faveurs.ble for engineer ing purposes, the expense of construction will, it is expected, be less than the usual average. The admirable position of this railway can not fail, it is confidently expected, to command a large return, both in passengers and in goods traffic. The Company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentary plans and sections in ample time tor complying with the standing orders, and enabling than to apply for their Act in the ensuing session.

Brook and Freeman The object of this undertaking is to forma continuous line of rail way from Leeds to Liverpool, by extending the lines already made, or sanctioned by Parliament, from their respective termini at Hud dersfield, in Yorkshire, and Bury, for which extension a line of rail way only 25 miles in length is requisite. The proposed line will com mence at the Huddersfield station, between which place and Leeds. Parliamext has already sanctioned the formation of railways, and from Huddersfield the proposed line will proceed by way of Hillhouse' Birchencliffe, and Lindley, and thence along the valley between Stainland and (lreetland, through Bark'sland, the Yale of Ripponden, and by Rochdale to Bury, in Lancashire, where it will join the ter minus of the Liverpool and Bury line of railway. In addition to completing a direct communication from Liverpool ' to Leeds, Mull, and Goole, by the shortest practicable route, and by a much smaller outlay of capital, than by any ether proposed line, it will provide for a large and important manufacturing popalation, hitherto without the advantage of railway accommodation, as outlet to the south by means of the Huddersfield and Sheffield Junetien Railway, and to Manchester and to North aed South Lancashire by the railways above mentioned, and by the Leeds and Manchester Railway, by a proposed junction therewith at Rochdale. This line, when completed, will, is addition to the advantages which it presents as a through line, pass through a succession of val leys thickly studded with mills and manufactories, consuming a large quantity of raw materials anti coal, all of which are brought irons a distance, and transmitting to other districts the produce ef their industry, for which purposes a line of railway has become ab solutel► necessary, and there can be no doulot that as ample return will be realised for the outlay of capital required. The distance between Huddersfield and Rochdale by the present line of railway is thirty miles, which by the proposed railway will be reduced to seventeen miles. The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the right of enter ing into any arrangements with existing railway companies that may appear desirable. And power will be taken by the Act of Parliament to allow interest to the shareholders at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum on the amounts paid oq their shares front tke respective times of payment to tke times ef opening the railway. Applications for shares may be addressed, in the subjoined firm, to any of the undermentioned Sharebrokers, viz.—Messrs.

Local, SOLICITOR-:-Samuel Shepherd, Esq. Northallerton. By this line of railway it is intended to connect the free port of Stockton with the manufacturing districts of the West Riding of Yorkshire and the whole of Lancashire. This important object will be attained at a trifling outlay of capital, and ensure an-amply remunerative traffic. The line will be constructed from or near Stockton-on-Tees, to or near to Northallerton, a distance of only eighteen miles, where it will form a junction with the Great North of England Railway, which will be traversed to Thirsk ; and from that place the communication with Leeds and the other important manufacturing towns will be completed by a railway already sanctioned by Parliament. It will be seen, therefore, that the communication by railway be tween the free port of the Tees and the town of Leeds will be com pleted by the formation of " The Stockton, Northallerton, and Leeds Railway." The advantages of this undertaking are too numerous to specify in an advertisement; but merchants at all acquainted with the immense export and import trade of the West Riding and of Lancashire, will at once perceive how important it is to open to that trade a port which, whilst it is as advantageous as any other in point of distance, possesses facilities and immunities which none other can offer. From the favourable locality of the port of Stockton, there is no doubt that, with the additional facilities for the importation and transit of merchandise which this railway will afford, the port will occupy a leading position amongst those on the Eastern coast of England. The project has received very extensive local support; and almost every landowner, through whose property the line is intended to pass, has already signified his assent to the measure. The line of the country has been surveyed by an engineer of talent and experience, and, from his report, the work will be finished for 14,0001. a mile ; and there is no engineering difficulty of any descrip tion to encounter. Applications for Shares, in the subjoined form, may be forwarded to Messrs. Wilson and Faber, solicitors, Stockton; or to Samuel Shepherd, Esq., solicitor, Northalierton ; sip to and including Satur day, the Ist day ofNovember next, on which day the list will finally close, and the allotment be immediately proceeded with.

Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Long/,'le, Sedbergk, and Kirkby Stephen, and thence ay the most practicable line to New castle. It will run nearly parallel with the old coach road, which has hitherto bees the principal passenger route from Lancaster t o Newcastle. It will readily be conceded that great benefits will flow from a direct railway communication between the coal-fields and mining districts of Durham and Northumberland, and the important towas and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, aid Lancaster. The entire length of the line is rich in mineral preducticns—coal, elate, li mes t on e, marble, and other elements of a great local traffic abound, and cannot fail to make this one of the most remunerative projects of the day. A considerable saving of distance between the important towns on the termini is effected over any existing or pro jected scheme. It will be reserved to the Committee of Management to make such alterations in the line, or the am cunt of capital required, or other wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the interests of the Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act to the opening of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only.

The first object of this lino is to connect the town of Birmingham, Coventry, and Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest route, and to supply an important link of communication between the town of Spalding and the eastern coast, and the western and midland districts. John Smith Dianaloll, esq. George Meek, Esq. Capt. Gustavus Evans, R.N. Commencing at the Spalding station of the Norwich, Dereham, Lynn, and Holbeach Railways, the line will proceed by Boom, Witham, Castle Bytham, South Wytharu, and Wymondham, to a point on the Syston and Peterborough line of railway near Dielton- Mowbray, thus forming, by the Syston and Peterborough and Mid land Counties Railway, as almost direct route to Leicester, andl thence to Coventry and Birmingham by the proposed Coventry. Nuneaton, Leicester, and Birmingham Railway. The projected line will form the most direct communication be tween the eastern and midland districts of the kingdom, and will, by means of the proposed lines across the county of Leicester, via Bur ton-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, Norfolk. Shropshire, and North Wales, nearer to each other by nanny miles than any other lino of railway. It will form, with other projected railways, an almost direct Hite across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwich. on the Oast, to Aberystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west. The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There is no Bland. ling, cutting, or embanking of any importance necessary; the line from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve miles, is very level, and may be constructed at a small cent. It win secure the advantages of railway cotmunication to a tract of country at present destitute of this accommodation, besides open ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of the means of transit. The central midland districts have felt greatly the want of direct communication with the coast; and this line will at once supply the deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire. It will afford a transit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei cestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon supply from the north at high prices: it will also secure the advan tages of an unlimited supply of lime from the Leicestershire works, to the agricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only supplied at very high rates; and, in return traffic, the midland dis tricts will obtain the advantage of a direct transit for the stock and agricultural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk. Several proposed lines of railway converge at Spalding, which is the nearest point on the eastern coast for the midland counties, and connected by the River Welland with the German Ocean. The proposed capital will be sufficient for the construction of the necessary works and every subsequent expense ; and the income derivable from the traffic in passengers between Birmingham, Co ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston, the trans port of corn, cattle, and other produce of the great agricultural districts through which the line passes to the principal consuming districts, and of coals, lime, and staple commodities for the inland districts, will be sufficiently ample to warrant the outlay. The Parliamentary surveys have been commenced, and are now in active progress, and contracts have been entered Into which en sure sufficient time for compliance with the standing orders. . . -- Forms of application for shares, plans, and prospectuses may be had of the Solicitors ; also at the offices of the Comp any, 4, Tra rsailigre2"l by respectable references, uare, eharig.rer°sre where applications for ch arts, accom pnces, may be addressed to the Provi sional Committee.
