George Smith, Esq., Derby Newcastle-under-Lyne Stafford Ashboume PAILIAMENTARY leEsars—Messrs. Dorrington, Hayward, Ellie combe, and Ce., 16, Parliament-street The national object of this undertaking is to create a direct and united communication between the eastern and western parts of the kingdom. On reference to a railway map of England, it will at owe be seen that Stafford and Crewe, on the Grand Junction aid Derby, and Belper, on the Midland Railway, are the centres to which a great number of lines of railway, either already constructed or projected, converge ; and between these four points no railway exists. The West Midland Railway proposes to unite these points in the following way :—By commencing one of its arms at Crewe station, on the Grand Junction Railway, which will run through or near Newcastle-under-Lyne, Bursham, Stoke-apon-Trent, Lane End, and Cheadle, to Uttoxeter, where its other arm from Stafford will meet it and proceed thence, by Ashbourne to a point near the Belper station on the Midland Railway, whore it will take advantage of ilia pro posed Derby and Gainsborough, Nottingham and Mansfield, and Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railways ; thus opening a. direct oom munication between Holyhead and other:parts of North Wales, Cheshire, Staffordshire, and Shropshire ,on the one hand, and Sheffield, Retford, Mansfield, Nottingham, Newark, Norwich, and the ports of Gainsborough, Grimsby, Boston, Spalding, Lynn and Yarmouth, on the other. This line will accommodate a very considerable portion of tho traffic proceeding, from the west coast of Scotland, Cumberland, and Lanea shire, into Lincolnshire and the south-eastern parts of the kingdom, and by that portion of the line which Is proposed to run between Yelper and Stafford, and the whole of the traffic flrom the east coast of Scotland, Northumberland, Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, and other populous northern counties passing to the west and south west, together with the opulent mineral districts of South Wales, will be effectually served. Passing a: this line will do, through a densely-populated and ex elusive manufacturing district, it must be viewed, even in its local character, as one of vast importance. The mere enumeration of the towns affected by it would suffice to show that the traffic over it will be immense ; but, in addition to this, whea credit is taken fbr the thorough traffic passing diagonally over the line from south-east to north-west, and from north-east to south-west, as well as for the corn and other aericultural produce from the eastern counties to the manufacturing districts ; • and a return carriage of manufactured goods, slates from North Wal e s, salt from Cheshire, earthenware from StafforOshire, and iron from Shropshire, for the consumption of the midland counties as well as for export from the eastern ports of Hull, Grimsby, Boston, Spalding, dm., some adequate idea may be formed of the advantages which the comple ion of this comprehensive scheme will naturally develop. All these objects have been deeply and seriously considered, and deemed of such para mount importance to local interests, that the fullest and most hi fluential support and co-operation have been obtained to effectually carry out and insure the various objects of this undertaking. Surveys of the district have been made with much care, and the result is highly favourable in an engineering point of view. The Committee in the allotment of shares will give a preference to parties locally interested, and in all cases satisfactory reference will be required to some person of known respectability. beer will be taken in the act to allow interest, at flip rate of 4/. per cent. per annum, on the deposits, as well as on all future calls, from the date of each payment, till the opening of the whole line, or until a dividend be declared ; and the liability of subscribers will be limited by the Act of Parliament to the amount of their respective shares. The shares and all payments made thereon will be forfeited with out notice, should the holders thereof not sign the Subscribers' Agree ment and Parliamentary Contract as soon as required.

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-Bosworth 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 Derlay, 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 Cheater field branch of the North Midland Railway is made. The Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway, in eonnexion with the Oxford and Rugby, and Oxford, Southampton, aid Gosport Rail way, forms a direct Manchester and Southampton line. THE GREAT ADVANTAGES Of the Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway, ever the other pro jects into Manchester, among oth.rs, are— First. That there are only seventy-fire 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 Third,it Interferes with no existing railway property or veste i clin That teist;. Fourth. That it passes through a District rich in manufacture, agriculture, and minerals, but which—more especially as regard. its agricultural produce, and a convenient system of intercommunica tion for the conveyance cf 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 routs, instead of avoiding them. Sixth. That the whole line of railway from Rugby to Manchester will be completed and in working order within teat months trom the passing of the Act of Parliament. Seventh. That the maps, plans, estimates, and other documents required by the standing 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 London and Bir mingham Railway ; also, of 2,000 shares to the shareholders in the Oxford, Southampton, and Gosport Railway Company; of 1,000 shares to the Oxford and Rugby Railway Company ; and 2,000 shares to the Manchester and Birmingham Railway Company.

The object of this line is to make a short and direct communication between the populous manufacturing and iron and coal districts of Bradford, Cleckheaton, Ile ckmondwike, Batley, Dewsbury, Barns ley, and Sheffield, with th e wool and agricultural districts of Lei cestershire, Derbyshire, D oncaster, Gainsborough, Lincoln, the port of Boston. The line will form a jun c ti on with the West Torkshire, the Leeds and Dewsbury, and the M anchester and Leeds Railways, at or near Dewsbury; and then ce proceed by it will join the North Midl an d Rail Darton to Barnsley, and Wombwell, to or near t o Wath-upon-D way, ande ne also meet n the Prowhposed line to Doncaster, Bawt r y, G ainsborough, and Lincoln ; and form a port of Boston ere communication by the existi ng li nes with the &c., and and the south ; and by the proj ec t e d Hull and Barnsley Junction Railway ; it will also form a direct li ne to Hull, and by the Leeds and Thirsk Railway, a direct line to th e nortk. The line will also be cont i nued from Barnsley by Tankersley and Chapeltown to Sheffield. A branch will run to the var i ous Ironworks and Colliery Rail ways, near Wentworth ; and another branch will run to the Silk stone Colliery Railways. A direct line of communication will thus be formed between the important manufacturing places of Bradford, Bierley, Cleckheaton, Gomersall, Heckmondwike, Liversedg,e, Batley Dewsbury, Ossett, Thornhill, Darton, Barnsley, Ardsley, and Wombwell, to Wath upon-Dearne, Doncaster, Lincolnshire, the port of Boston, and the south, and also to Sheffield; affording the best possible accommoda tion to the rich iron and coal districts of Silkatone, Worsborough, Tankersley, Chapeltown, and SheffieLl ; whilst the wools and raw materials aced iu the manufactures at Bradford, Pudsey, Earlsheaton, Cleekheaton, Batley, Heckmondwike, Dewsbury, and Barnsley, as well as corn and cattle, will be received by the shortest and most di rect line of transit from Leicestershire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, and the southern parts which supply these commodities, in exchange for the manufactures, coals, and minerals of those districts. It must be evident to every one, on looking at the map, that this line is imperatively called for, as up to this period the only rail way communication for the supply of wool and other goods, and the conveyance of passengers to Dewsbury, Reckmondwike, Batley, Cleckheaton, Bradford, and the intermediate places (each containing a numerous manufacturing population), has been the North Midland line by Normanton—a very circuitous route, as appears by the fol lowing statement of distances of those places : Relative distances from Bradford and Dewsbury to Barnsley and Sheffield, by the present route, and the proposed line : Miles From Bradford to Barnsley by Brighouse, and thence by the Leeds and Manchester line, about .. By the proposed line from Bradford, via Cleckheaton and Dewsbury, to Barnsley .. Being a saving of From Dewsbury, Batley, &c., by the present route to Barnsley about •• - - By the proposed line Being a saving on 23 miles of no less than .. • • • • 12 The present distance to Sheffield from Bradford Is about 61 miles; by the proposed line it will be 31,—0r a saving of 20 miles. From Dewsbury by the present route Sheffield is distant 40 miles ; by the proposed lins it -win bo 31, —or a saving of 19 The same observations, as to saving of distance, apply to London and all intermediate places ; and it is important to observe that either by the present North Midland line, or by the projected London and York Railway, this proposed line will be the shortest and most direct route from Bradford, Dewsbury, &c., to London. It may also be noticed, that from Swinton to Leeds by this project and the Leeds and Dewsbury line, the distance Is much, less than by way of Nonnanton. _ T . ilief;ll;;lngtale, taken from the Parliamentary Census of 1841 will give some idea of tho populous Districts through which th e line ' passes : 6 4, 0 4 7 5 8 3 8,910 POPULATION OF PLACE!?

This line will diverge il•ota the line of the Great Eastern and Western Railway, near Worcester, and proceeding by Bran_ 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 left 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 41. per cent. on all calls from the time of their respective payments, as well as t• limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscrip tions.

This Cempany is formed for making a railway from Liverpool to Derby, and will, in c on j unc ti on 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, Knutaford, 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 form the shortest route from`Liverpool to London, and effect a direct chain of communication 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 and Rugby, and London and Birmingham, will be only ltsi 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 12% miles in the other. And as regards Liverpool and Derby, the whole distance between Liverpool and Derby 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 tor tne proposed railway, in order to eonnect mor e 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 (wlsere the proposed railway will unite with the Manchester and Rugby Direct Railw a y) will be about 30 miles, and from Leek to Derby about 26% miles, making the whole distance from Manchester to De r by only 66% I 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 i mend a line 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 from Liverpool to London. The distance from Liverpool to Leek (the proposed point of Jame- Von with the Manchester and Rugby Direct Railway) is 473. miles: from Leek to Rugby, according to the line as proposed by the Man 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. l With regard to the traffic and other details connected the great r t e l a r working of the line, it seems only necessary to revert to tt importance of the towns proposed to be brought Into ' co the minds of , with each other, in order to convince tclomtutiniieniscoautrlocne of revenue thus derived will be immense. the Th li e n r e e . no call shall be made on the share holdersare no engineering difficulties connected with the forming of The deeds will provide that until the t . o (ct u o o f w P 4 ari p ai e l r ie c n e t n i t s obtained, and power will c . beyond the depc,sit h r e ior ak p e a tt ld t . . interest on all calls.
