There can be no doubt, therefore, that the passenger traffic alone be sufficient to pay a very large dividend on the outlay. _• • The average number of persons visiting Hampton-court in the summer months amounts to about 18,000 per week.

This undertaking presents the additional and important advantage of competing with no line at present established ; on the contrary, it will be the means of connecting and feeding the several lines enu merated, and several others that are projected; and the engineer reports Unit it passes over a particularly easy country, and will be capable of construction at about 16,0001. per mile ; and the land owners on the line who have been seen, are favourable to the un dertaking. The length of the line will he about 18 miles. Application for shares must be made in the annexed form, to the solicitors of the Company, Messrs.

Cressy Hall, Esq., Aifreton, Derbyshire George Henry Richardson Cox, Esq., :voodoo, Derbyshire SECRETARY—Stillillgtlea Locker, Esq. Assuming the northern terminus of the Erewash Railway as its origin, this line will pass through localities totally nu provided with railway accommodation, into the populous ma nufacturing districts of Lancashire. It will continue the important line from which it borrows the prefix of its name, from Alfreton, in Derbyshire, where it will be a recipient of traffic from the Cromford Canal—communicating with the Codnor ironworks —along the Milting Vale, and, obeying the course of the river Derwent, enter Yorkshire, in the vicinity of Saddleworth. In its course, it will pass through or near to Matlock, Ashbourne, Glos sop, Mottram, Hyfleld, and Duckenfleld, in reaching which point, the Manchester and Sheffield Railway will be intersected, and the Hud dersfield Canal Railway passed, near to the Rochdale station of the Manchester and Leeds Railway. It is unnecessary to state here the character of the country from Rochdale to Blackburn : it will be suflicient-to observe, that it is the seat of those manufactures to which England owes her accumulating wealth. The line will proceed thence through or near to Whitworth and Rossendale, and fall into the East Lancashire Railway, in the vicinity of liaslingden. A hianch will be thrown► out of the trunk line, from the Juncticm with the East Lancashire line near Haslingden, by Low-Moor iron works and Bacup, to Todmorden. The Erewagh . kxtension will be the only direct route from the centre of Derbyshire to the great manufacturing towns and chief seaports of Lancashire. It will traverse a valley district adorned with the most picturesque scenery, and, at the same time, rich in mineral produce. It will communicate, laterally, with several trunk lines of railway, and will be fed by no less than live working canals the Cromford—the Manchester and Shcflldd—the Huddersfield —the Manchester and Leeds—and the Liverpool and Blackburn. .To the multiplication of advantages which intersecting railways and lines of still-water navigation are compelled to afford, the throw ing out of branches from the line itself in so many directions will add still further powers of accommodation, and, when the dense popuia- Bonin the localities traversed is considered, there,isevery reason to conclude that an ample remuneration for vested capital will be ob tained. VY ttlichr big gig course day* 1040, this instaacti till 14 - with the exact direction of the projected line, highly favourable gra dients are obtained for a considerable pa-t of the length; and every other section of the country, upon a preliminary survey, has been reported as more than commonly practicable. While the return for capitil cannot be questioned, and the necessities of the district de mand accommodation, .the expenditure must necessarily fall below the usual afflount for works of equal magnitude. To identify this project with that of the Erewash Valley, although not included under, or belonging to the same executive, it is pro posed to allow subscribers in that Company shares in the Erewash Extension : the number to be regulated by the interest retained lu the elder project. The deeds will provide that no call shall be made ou. 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 4 per cent. in terest upon all calls.

This line will pass in a direct course from Tunbridge, via Paddock Wood (thus connecting itself with Maidstone) through the parishes of Brenchley, Horsmonden, Goudhurst, Cranbrook, Benenden, llawkhurst, Sandhurst, Itolvenden, Newenden, Northiam, reas marsh, Beckley, Ides, and I'layden, to the town and harbour of Rye, and it will embrace a lat.,. e extent of adjacent country, at pre sent unprovideel with, and much requiring, the admitted advantages of railway transit. The length of the line will be about 25 miles—a great portion of It will pass through a level country, and the remaining part is free from any mat riot engineering difficulty, or works likely to require any serious outlay, and it is not expected to be necessary to interfere with any residences cr ornamental property. _ _ _ The saving of distance to Rye, and all the other places embraced by this line,will be considerable. The capital required is estimated not to exceed 600,000/. During the last session of Parliament application was made for a similar nue, partially embracing the same country, when It was shown in detail by evidence produced before the Committee, that the contemplated traffic, after deducting 401. per cent. for working ex penses, would leave a large per centage upon the invested capital. That line was rejected on the ground that the best direction had not been selected, but with an intimation thud the port of Rye was en titled to a direct railway communication with the interior of the country, in the best direction towards London. The present scheme has been based upon this intimation, taking advantage of tile merits and defects which appeared upon that investigation, and as it em braces a more populous and productive country, and passes in a more direct line to London, and will have the benefit of better access to other and more numerous lines, the sources of traffic are consider ably increased, and there is every reason to believe, from what passed during the last session, that the present plan will be favourably enter tained by the Legislature: The chief object is to open the port of Rye to the Mil benefit of a railway communication, through a populous and productive district, in the direction of London, to the best point at which it can avail itself 'of the existing and contemplated lines. The imports of Itye, particularly coals, with lime and other ma nures, are of great importance to the country through which this line will pass, and a cheaper and better mode of transit will much increase the detnnud for them, and give the opportunity of great improvement in the cultivation of the adjacent country. A railway through the heart of the chief hop district of the king dom, also producing corn, timber, and hop poles, and communicating at its terminus with a great part of the important cattle district of Romney Marsh, must be a public advantage. The port of Rye is admitted to be the best outlet and quickest route to Paris and to other parts of the Continent, and there can be no doubt if a direct railway should be made to Rye, with a moderate improve ment in the harbour, that it would be much adopted, particularly as a national and commercial communication with France, and by per sons travelling on business. „ - Application for shares and prospectuses to be addressed to the Secretary, at the Offices, 94, Cheapside ; Messrs.

The importance of connecting remote parts of E..gland by rail ways, with the advantages thereby conferred upon intermediate towns and districts, can scarcely be better exemplified than by the lino which is Low proposed to form a short and direct channel of inter course between Oxford and Salisbury. Numerous projected lines new before the pnblie will snake Oxford at the north, and Salisbury at the south of the intended railroad, the central points from which various radii will diverge to the north-west, north, and north-east of the former, and to the south and west of the latter ; and the proposed line from Cambridge t• Oxford, confirming to that salty the conrse of railway front the north-eastern parts of the i s l an d , requ i res the appliance now suggested to eff ect a com p lete means of transit to the western and south-western counties. The Oxford and noallsbury Direct Railway, in addition t o the benefits which will be conferred u p o n the nation at l aien t ge , by iEe perfectingogla north- e a st ernod, mil will afford a o f ro d : ad r direct W tt o Line tofwestern b o of Abingdon, tnrough commun'eation be and south-western e o f f the market towns of Wan t a ge, Ilungerford, a n d L udgorshall, and the adjacent villages, an important railway acconimed a ti on, of wh i ch the agri cu ltural districts in whi ch the y ar e seated stand in much need, and will provide a fa cilit y for the interch ange of prackee be tween the rural, manufa cturing, and commercial Polntlation of the City kingdom. The projected line will bring the Cath edral City of Salis bury into immediate c onnexion with the and University of ; thus stre ng th en i ng th e ecclesiastical and academical relation s of t he whole, whilst the com mercial prosperity of the two t erminal c ities must of necessity be with the, nairorettlyie of advantage csinnridge of a direct commun i cat i on b i r t d h essentially enhanced. The want of railway accommodation has long been felt to press thes th th e tion of the Great °Nntgoto Abingdon a direct rail unfairly upon the inhabitants of the important and thriving town of railway to Wantage, Abingdon. Their means mid opinirluies Of competing with the more fortunate traders of those towns whi ch are already provided with di rect channels of transit, are thus severa'v crippl ed.

The object of this railway is to afford to the inhabitants residing within a circle of about ten m les south of the Thames the means of a safe, frequent, and speedy communication with the heart of the City. It is proposed to have a central terminus in Queen-street, Cheap side, with a direct line of railway over Southwark-bridge to the Ele phant and Castle, and thence by radiating branches to accommodate the localities of Kennington, Brixton, Streatham, Croydon, Clap ham; liatham, Tooting, Miteliam, Walworth, Camberwell, Peckham, Dulwich, Norwood, the Kent-road, Deptford, Greenwich, Black heath, Charlton, Woolwich, Wandsworth, Putney, Mortlakq, and Richmoni, completing the chain of communication with the South- Western at Wandsworth, and with the London and Brighton and South-Eastern Line at Croydon. It is needless to point out in this preliminary announcement the enormous passenger traffic which may be expected on this railway, when it Is considered that the portion of the suburbs to which ac commodation is to be afforded contain a population of between seven and eight hundred thousand persons, requiring daily inter course with the City. As this Hirt will be constructed upon the atmospheric principle, and the present public roads will be adopted as far as practicable, the cost will not bear comparison with that of railways In general, and it is estimated that It will ply to the shareholders of the under taking a remunerating profit of not less than 10 per cent., even reckoning the conveyance of passengers at the Icw rates of from 3d. to GI for the whole, or any part of the distance, to say nothing of the enormous traffic In parcels and goods. A detailed prospectus, with the names of a very influential Com mittee, and other officers, will appear in a few days. In the mean time all communications and applications for shares, in the usual form, may be addressed to It. B.

Commencing at Cambridge, which has now become the traffic centre of the Eastern Counties, by the line of railway intended to be termed by that Company, this line will proceed to Bedford, there passing near Olney it will cross at or rear the Blisworth Station of the London and Birmingham Railway, where it will communicate with the Northampton and Peterborough line; it will then proceed west ward, crossing the Oxford and Rugby line at or near Fenny-Compton to Stratford-on-Avon, there joining the proposed line from Warwick and Leamington to Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, and the West of England; continuing its course through Alcester, the line will go di rect to Worcester, and thus terminate at the great centre of traffic for the mineral and manufactitring districts of South Staffordshire, Shropshire, and North and South Wales. This proposed line doe. not interfere with any existing railways, and presenting, as it does, an unbroken line between two great centres of traffic, the importance of the undertaking needs no further comment. Negotiations have been entered into with the Eastern Comi ties Railway Company, by which their support and co-operation will be ensured for obtaining the line now proposed. An arrangement has also been made with the proposed Rugby, Warwick, and Worcester Company, which this line will join at Al cester, and by means of which the Eastern Counties' traffic will pro ceed to Worcester. Power will be reserved to the Directors to amalgamate with any other existing or projecting Companies, or to vary the line.
