Dorrington, Hayward, Elli combe, and Co., 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 once be seen that Stafford and Crewe, on the Grand Junction and 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-Lyme, Bursharn, Stoke-upon-Trent, Lane End, and Cheadle, to Uttoxeter, where its other arm from Stafford will meet it and proceed thence, by Ashboume to a point near the Belper station on the Midland Railway, where it will take advantage of the pro posed Derby' and Gainsborough, Nottingham and Mansfield, and Boston, Newark, and Sheffield Railways ; thus opening a direct com munication between Holyhead and other parts of North Wales, Cheshire, Staffordshire, and Shropshire; on the one head, and Sheffield, Rettbrd, 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 the traffic proceeding from the west coast of Scotland, Cumberland, and Lanca shire, into Lincolnshire and the south-eastern parts of the kingdom, and by that portion of the line which is proposed to run between Helper and Stafford, and the whole of the traffic from the east coast of Scotland, Northumberland, Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, and other populous northern counties passing to the weet and south west, together with the opulent mineral districts of South Wales, will be effectually served PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED.

The line will also be continued from Barnsley by Tankersley and Chapeltown to Sheffield. A brarch will run to the various 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, Cleekheaton, Gomersall, Heckmondwike, Liversedge, 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 Silkstone, Worsborough, Tankersley, Chapeltown, and Sheffield ; whilst the wools and raw materials used in the manufactures at Bradford, Pudsey, Earlsheaton, •leckheaton, 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, Heckmondwike, Batley, Cleckheaton, Bradford, and the intermediate places (each containing a numerous manufacturing population), lots been the North Midland line by Normanton—a very circuit ous rou te, 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 : ACTING COMMITTEE.

Passing at this line will do, through a densely-populated and ex elnsive 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, when credit is taken for 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 ftom the eastern counties to the manufacturing districts ; and a return carriage of manufactured goods, slates from North Wales, salt from Cheshire, earthenware from Staffor.!shire, 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, &c., tome adequate idea may be Lrmed of the advantages which the oomple fen of this comprehensive scheme will naturally develop. All these objects have been deeply and ser:ously considered, and deemed of such para mount importance to kcal interests, that the fullest and most in fluential' suppart 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. Power will be taken in the act to allow interest, at the rate of 41. 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 &Glared ; and the liability of subscribers will be limited by the Act of Parliament to the amount of their respective shares.

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 Normanton. . The following table, taken from the Parliamentary Census of 1841, will give some idea of the populous Districts through which the line passes : _. 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. BANKERS. London—The London and Westminster Bank, Lothbury The Commercial Bank of London. Worcester—Messrs. Farley, Lavendar, and Co. LOCAL Aassr—John Bedford, Esq., Solicitor, Leominster. 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. 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. 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. 18,559 2,320 - POPULATION OF PLACES (IN 1841), ON THE LINE OF ROAD.

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 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 Easters and Western Railway Company, on the strong representations and request of a large and most influential body of the lauded gentry of th• neigh bourhood. 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 came 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. ;0 0 Jtr" 0' A 4 '‘A.L4l,l4r4lor cLuBICOANOCts_, ICERA.II, GOODS DEPOT COMPANY. • A 11'11EITAItY 1"1 'IIE ENT C O I- F IA TH M E BERS, b.(Provisionally Registered.) eamaiNoMEHOLD INVESTMENT. r; °.°1301 ., in 12,000 Shares of 251. each. , ltailti columia...—ePosit, 1/. 7s. 6d. per Share. •rsit o .aYs h a . re ,suee with the recent Parliamentary Orders.) t4 llte lo 'd bu5100;443- assumed a greater importance in the world yet its t„„,Plat ed, _ 3 te Nether - allY Public enterprise British genius has tit,brili to ti;'we consider them in a national point of view, 114 5ie ' ,1 1111, 4 for 41advanceirient of trade and commerce, or as a pro -04 11,!E ttnonallea6 : 4b kri 14 tb t Pro e 1 -si ei .„_!)ed for tii sectition of existing lines; the additional millions nvestMent of capital.

FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

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, Knutsford, 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-'!x miles. It will be seen by reference to the map that this important line of railway will • form the shortest route froteLiverpool to London, and effect a direct chain of communication between Liverpool and Derby, and will thence, by means of the Midlands and other railvrays, 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 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 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 for the proposed railway, in order to eonnect 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 proposed railway will unite with the Manchester and Rugby Direct Railway) will be about 30 miles, and from Leek to Derby about 26% utiles, 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 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 junc tion with the Manchester and Rugby Direct Railway) is 47% 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. With regard to the traffic and other details conn rt ec t t o ed t wi he th g 4h A e t working of the line, it seems only necessary to r. the minds of all t hat with each other, in order to convince importance of the towns proposed to be brought i e n v to e of revenue thus derived will be immense.
