The object which has for a long time occupied the attention of every railway proprietary whose line terminates near the metropolis, vie., the attainment of some point for their terminus situated more centrally, and with readier access to London travellers than their pre sent sites, appears now to be In course of completion. Two principal lines of railway, the South Western and South Eastern, have proposed and intend to carry into effect extensions of their lines from the existing termini to the neighbourhood of the Waterloo and Hungerford Bridges, and to this point the traffic from Birmingham and the North of England will also be enabled to pro ceed, through the contemplated extension of the West London Rail way, across the Thames to a junction with the South Western Line. The perfect attainment of the object in view will, however, remain unaccomplished, so long as the terminating point is kept on the south side of the river; since, although a considerable improvement as compared with the present positions will thereby be effected, still the station in the Waterloo-bridge -road is remote and inconvenient to the later proportion of travellers, and the evils now so justly complained of will be far from completely obviated. It is with the view of supplying this deficiency that the promoters of the London Central Railway Terminus lay their project before the public. They propose to provide means whereby the passenger car riages from every line in connexion with the meropolis, can be con veyed across the Thames to a general station erected in the imme- Rate vicinity of Charing-cross. For this purpose plans have been prepared, which have received the approval of the most eminent engineers, for carrying a double line of rails over the river, adjoining the new Hungerford Suspension bridge, and supported by a simple and inexpensive addition to the present erections of that structure. For the vast amount of traffic which will thus be brought to the Middlesex side of the river, it is intended to provide a central station of corresponding magnitude. The Company, therefore, purpose to undertake the execution of part of the embankment, according to the plan of the Government for embanking the Thames, for the distance lying between Waterloo and Hungerford-bridges, and over part of the area thus obtained from the river, to erect a station of size sufficient to supply the purposes of every separate railway, and furnished with every requisite provision for the wants of the respective Companies and the convenience of their passengers. The property of the Com pany will extend through the whole frontage of the Adelphl-terrace, the present buildings of which, as well as those to be hereafter erected, will be admirably adapted for a series of splendid hotels, This project would have been before the public at an earlier period, but the projectors were desirous of obtaining the full concurrence of her Majesty's Commissioners for Metropolitan Improvements ; and they are now enabled to state, that the plans have been laid before the Commissioners, and as far as relates to the embankment and terminus, have met with their decided approval. On the south side of the river the proposed railway will join the several extension lines at their nearest point of approach to the Thames and to each other, and thus will constitute a leader into the heart of London for the Birmingham, South Western, Brighton, and South Eastern lines, at present existing, as well as for the various proposed lines through Kent, and to Richmond and Staines, which will shortly be in course of construction. The Directors of several of the above-mentioned Companies have already expressed their ap probation of the undertaking; but the advantages it offers are so great and obvious that there can be no doubt of the cordial co=opera tion of the managers and proprietors of the ether lines, without ex ception. The plan presents no features of difficulty, or involving the neces sity of any extraordinary expense. The ground to be occupied by the station will, from its peculiar character, be obtainable at a com paratively small cost; and from estimates carefully prepared it is proved that a capital of 500,0001. will be sufficient for the accomplish ment of every purpose in contemplation. This capital it is proposed to raise in 21,000 shares of 201. each. In order to favour the multitudinous travellers for short distances o•tt of London, the toll charged to passengers for any station short of twenty miles will be less than that required from those bound on more extended journeys, and who are more likely to be encumbered with luggage. An average of 2d. has been assumed open the whole number estimated. From the traffic returns of the railways now completed, together with the increase to be derived from the lines at present before Par liament, it is estimated that the annual number of arrivals and de partures of passengers from their London termini, who will select the Central Station for their landing point, will amount to 5,500,000; the gross receipts from whom, at a toll of 2d. each, will be 45,0001. per annum. From this amount a deduction of 20 per cent. for working expenses, &c. (including the rental to the Proprietors of llungerford bridge), will be amply dutliclent; as tho Company will have no need of locomotives, and therefore be freed from those items which occa sion the heaviest expenditure on other railways. This will leave a net profit of 36,0001. per annum for the tolls alone. To this must be added the profits that will be derived from the various wharfs and buildings, and from the rroposed pier for steam-boats, amounting on the most moderate calculation to an annual rental of at least 15,0001. With this addition, the total returns will amount to somewhat more than 10 per cent. on the capital required. The completion of every new railway, and the opening of every extension line or feeder to the axis ing railways, will produce a constant increase in the revenue of the proposed line, and promise to raise it most rapidly to an impor tant rank as an investment for capital. The Provisional Committee have also taken into consideration a plan for extending the ;reposed Embankment and Railway from the great Central Station to some point nearer the City, and are deeply impressed with the great public advantages derivable from such an undertaking. This plan has been referred to the Engineer and Surveyors of the Company, whose report thereon may be expected in a short time, when the es' imates of the additional expense, and other particulars, will be duly announced Forms of application and Prospectuses may be obtained at the Offices of the Company, 28, Moorgate-street ; or from the Solicitors, Messrs.

At the same time, to Insure the making of the whole line from Basing stoke to Yeovil, the Committee of the London; Salisbury, and Yeovil Junction Railway will lodge the necessary Parliamentary plans, so that they may be in a situation to proceed for an Act next session of Parliament to enable them to make that portion of the line, should the South-Western Company, from any circumstances, be prevented from carrying it into execution. It is obviously for the interest of the London, Salisbury, and Yeovil Junction Railway Company that the line shall be continued forward from Yeovil to Exeter, and the Committee are prepared to come to an amicable tnderstanding with the proposed Exeter, Yeovil, and Dorchester Company, by which their line may be made in connexion with the London, Salisbury, and Yeovil line, but should the Committee be unable to carry out such an arrangement, they will feel it to be their duty to propose an extension of their own line from Yeovil to Exeter.—By order of the Committee, CROMBIA *tit fary.

This Railway is projected to continue the line of communication from the terminus of the proposed Manchester, Buxton, Matlock, and Midlands Junction Railway at Amber-gate to Nottingham ; which by a junction at Nottingham with one of the proposed Eastern lines will complete the nearest and most direct route from Nottingham and the Eastern Counties to Manchester, Liverpool, and Holyhead, and by a junction with the Midlands Railway, in the parish of Sawley, by the Erewash Valley, the nearest route from Lancashire and Yorkshire to the South. The town and environs of Nottingham contain a population of up words of 100,000 persons, extensively employed in the cotton, silk and lace manufacture, and this line, by its connexion with the pro posed Manchester, Buxton, Matlock, and Midlands Junction Railway, will reduce the distance upwards of seventy miles from thatimportant district to Manchester and Liverpool, as compared with existing routes • and the same advantage will also be derived by the towns of Leicester and Loughborough. Independently of the great traffic which, as part of the main trunk line from the agricultural districts of Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Norfolk, and Suffolk, to the manufacturing districts of Lancashire and Cheshire, it will pass through a very populous, manufacturing, and rich mineral district, the local traffic from which will alone re turn a fair remuneration for the capital invested. It will also pass through the extensive Nottinghamshire and Derby shire coal-field ; and by its junction with the Midlands Railway, at Amber-gate, and its cmtiguity to the limestone and gritstone quarries of Derbyshire, afford an unlimited quantity of coal, lime, and building stone to a large district at present only partially and expensively sup plied with those important products. In addition to the income to be thus derived from the local, mineral, and passenger traffic, a large revenue will accrue from the line, considerably cheapening the transit of cattle, cern, and other produce of the Eastern Agricultural Counties, and also of cotton, silk, and other raw materials, now brought by a circuitous, dilatory, and expensive route, from Liverpool and Manchester, to be used in the staple ,trades of Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, and Leicestershire, and the transmission of valuable manufactured goods to Liverpool for exportation. The railway will provide an easy and cheap access from Notting ham and the eastern part of England to Matlock, Buxton, Bakewell, Chatsworth, and Haddon, and the romantic scenery of the Peak, and by opening objects so rich in their attraction, will beyond doubt com mand a largo proportion of that pleasure travelling public by which existing lines have so much benefited. The Proprietors of the canals in the district through which the line will traverse, it is confidently believed, will amalgamate their inte rests upon such equitable terms as will prove advantageous to the Shareholders in this Company. A preliminary survey of the country has been made, and it has been ascertained that the gradients are remarkably good, and the cost of construction not expensive. Prospectuses, with forms of application, may be obtained from Mr. Spencer, Nottingham ; Mr. Peet, Nottingham ; Messrs. Earp and Son, Derby ; Mr. Eyre,' Derby ; Messrs.

Office of the Company, 14, Birchin-lane, Lombard-street, London. The formation of a railway from Nottingham to Boston is, un questionably, of the greatest importance to the whole of the districts and towns which it will connect, and will prove highly advantageous to the manufacturing and agricultural interests. By reference to the map of England, it will be seen that Boston is only about 48 miles from Nottingham, while all other sea-ports, on the east coast, are from 70 to 130 miles distant from Nottingham ; clearly showing that Boston is the natural sea-port of the manufacturing towns of the whole of the midland district. An immense traffic already exists between Boston and Nottingham, which must be increased almost to an incalculable amount when the facilities of railway transit are com pleted. The very difficult and dilatory mode of conveyance now used is by the River Witham, Canal, and River Trent. On an average, upwards of 150,000 quarters of grain are carried annually, at a cost of 2s. per quarter, which, by the railway, could be carried at Is. per quarter, being a saving of 50 per cent. to the producers and consumers. The export trade from Boston is now comparatively limited, by the want of means of conveyanceTrom the manufacturing districts, which this railroad will supply. Boston is situate in the midst of the finest land in the kingdom ; and this part of Lincolnshire may be justly termed the garden of the manufacturing district of England. The produce of the whole district, particularly its .wheat, is consumed in the large manufac turing towns; and the carriage of corn and cattle to the great centres of population will alone furnish a constant and certain source of revenue. In addition, the growth of potatoes in this locality is so extensive as to supply an important trade. The time occupied in travelling from Nottingham to Boston, by fast trains, will not be more than one hour and twenty minutes; whereas the journey, as at present performed by coach alone, occu pies eight hours. The conveyance of heavy goods by railway will occupy about two hours; by the existing means of convej atice, goods are from seven to fourteen days before they reach their destination. In addition to this, a large traffic will be carried along the line in manufactured goods, and in coal and lime from the Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire coal fields, to rural districts through which it passes, and to the shore of the German Ocean ; the bitter traffic is yet to be developed, and with the cheap transit provided by this line, the important article of coal will compete at a great advantage to the consumer with the present supply, which is now brought by sea from Newcastle. A very considerable amount of the vast staple proeuce of Not tingham, Derby, Loughborough, Leicester and the neighbourhood, which is exported to Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Germany, and all other parts of the Baltic, is now conveyed by a circuitous and expen sive route to Huil and London, and thence, after repeated removals by ship or steamer, to its destination : whereas, on the completion of this line, it would be transmitted direct to Boston, and thence to the before-mentioned places, in much less time, and at a much less expense. Boston is not only the nearest seaport town to Nottingham, but is also the most convenient, safest, and best situated on the eastern coast, for the shipment and transhipment of merchandise. By recent improvements the river, or arm of the sea, which runs through the centre of the town, has been widened and deepened, thus affording means for vessels of from three to four hundred tons burden to take in and discharge their cargoes at the wharf side, without risk or damage, an object of importance not only In point of security to the goods, but also in the saving of expen.s3 usually incurred for lighter charges. • A short detail of the present amount of traffic on a small part of the proposed line, will prove that the expectations of high remune ration are well founded. Between Grantham and Nottingham alone there are annually conveyed more than 60,000 'tons of goods, con sisting of corn, coal, malt, flour, oil, linseed-cake, timber, &c. ; there is also a considerable road traffic by waggons and carts. The above estimate is founded on returns which give the following detail of the quantities :—Wheat, barley, and beans, 12,000 tons; malt, 3,500; flour, 5,000; coal, 35,000; cake, 5,000; timber, 1,500; gene. ral merchandise, 10,000; giving a total of 62,000 tons. The present charge for this large traffic is, in canal dues, 4s. 43 d. per ton ; Trent charge, 2d. per ton ; freight to boatmen, 3s. 6d. per ton ; making Bs. per ton, for a distance by water of thirty-six miles. By railway this freight could be conveyed for the same distance for less than one third of the present cost, at a fair profit to the undertaking, and a great saving to the public. It must be remembered that this is the present amount of traffic; but experience has proved that wherever a railroad has been carried, the consequent cheapness and rapidity of conveyance have trebled it. To the above items of traffic may be added a large and important trade I n th il e s m h' e s banwoe f en co th m e m se u a ni e c o a a ti s o t n an ar d e th es e t po ab p li u s l h o ed us ; in a l n a d nd fi d s l i st b r e ic in ts g , when caught in large quantities on the whole east coast, and sold at a low price, to this supply of food the railway will give the inhabitants of the manufacturing towns a ready access. There are many other important results which may be anticipated from bringing the eastern coast into easy communication with the manufacturing towns of the midland counties, and of the north and west. The nature of the country through which the line will pass is most favourable in its facilities for construction : it is nearly all a dead level, passing along the Valley of the Witham and the Vale of Belvoir ; and the expensive tunnelling, excavations, and embank ments, which have caused so large an outlay on other lines, will not be necessary on this. The cost of construction will be as Sew as that of any line In the kingdom ; and the Company will not have to encounter the opposition of the owners of the land and estates through which the line will pass, they being, as far as can be ascer tained, most favourably disposed towards the undertaking. It wil be seen that the proposed line combines all the elements of a profitable railway; it has a sea-coast and sea-port town as one of the termini ; it passes through a rich ttnd productive agricultural district, to tke great seats of manufacture and consumption, each be ing a certain source of traffic ; and it affords ready communication with the southern, northern, and midland counties. Ai the Act cannot be applied for till next session, th ere will be am* time to make all the surveys and estimates, and to comply with all the standing orders, without that precipitancy, haste, and conAequent imperfection, which have caused the miscarriage of so many Bills in the present session, to the great expense and loss of the shareholders. The exact map of the intended line will be published as soon as the Great Northern Trunk line has been decided on by Parliament. Power is intended to be reserved in the Act to allow four per cent . Interest upon the deposits, until the completion of the line. No fur ther calls will be made until the Act of Parliament is obtained, and the future calls will not be more than 21. on each share. Tables aro now preparing, which will give an exact statement of the passengers and all other traffic on the line ; they will appear in an amended prospectus. Applications for shares may be made on the subjoined form, ad dressed to the Provisional Committee, at the office of the Company, 14, Ilirchin-lane, Lombard-street, London ; or to the Solicitors for the Company, at Nottingham, Boston, and Grantham. se No person need apply for shares unless the application is ac companied by an unexceptionable reference. A certain slumber of shares will be reserved for owners of land on the line, and for parties resident In the locality through which the line will pass. FORM OF APPLICATION.

The Southern parts of Lincolnshire, and the North Eastern parts of Cambridgeshire, will be afforded a direct facility of intercourse with some of the best markets in England. The neighbourhood of Nottingham being the most Eastern part of the Great Midland Coal Field, this Line will afford a supply of Coals, as well as being the medium of transit of Derbyshire Lime and Stone to the Agriculturists of South Lincolnshire, at a conside rably cheaper rate than by any other existing or projected Line ; in short, the vast mineral wealth of the Midland District will be ren dered available to the whole of the great agricultural country East of Nottingham. Surveys are now in progress, and the nature of the country is known tp offer no serious engineering difficulties, and a great portion of the Lino will be nearly a dead l eve l. The consideration of an ex tension of the Line from S palding or Long S u tt o n to Wisb eac h, w ill also form a portion of the sc h eme. The Report of the Board of Trade on the Lines through Lincoln shire, says : " The - total cost attending the transmission of a quarter of wheat Irom the interior of Lincolnshire, by sea, from the port of Boston to London, including freight, insurance , lighterage, commission, and ether charges, is stated t o amount to very near Bs. The charge by Railway per quarter (allowing fiv e quarters to the ton, at the charge of 114 d. per ton, per mil e, at which the est i ma t e o f the Cambrid ge and Lincoln Railway is taken) would not exceed 25., and the re maining, charges aro calculated not to exceed 2s. 6d., thus showing a benefit to the corn growers and to the public of as. 6d. per quarter, occasioned by the saving of the sums now paid for insurance, delay, loss in weight, d epreciation of qual i ty , li g hterage, &c."" A still more import ant the opportunity given by railway communications of availing himself promptly of the most favourable market. It frequently happens that owing to the delay and difficulty of transmission, the Farmer is com pelled to sell his wheat at the nearest provincial market at a price advantage to the Farmer is afforded by considerably below the average rate, an d to lose the advantage of a temporary rise." " Whatever tends to equalise pr i ce s and to prevent excessive fluc tuations cannot but b e considere d as a benefit both to the producer and the consumer. We are satisfied that much may be done in this way by an economical and well arranged system of railway com munication." k t s o h i t r h e e , districts The aa o ni f crem Lancashire,ark s ap ?l e y; The great quantity of land amminting to 100,000 acres, about to be redeemed from the .

And, it it is conceived, that the Grand Union Railway must meet with the cordial cooperation of the Midland Railways, as an Immense traffic will be brought along those l ines en route to Birming ham, the Potteries, an d the whole of the manufacturing districts of Staffordshire. The traffic upon the intended Nottingham and Mans field, Sheffield and Newark, Manchester, Sheffield, and Midland Junc tion, and the Sheffield and Manchester lines, must also derive a great increase of traffic from this line of railway.

John Hula], Esq., This Company hm been formed for the purpose of making a rail way between Derby and Crewe through the Potteries, thus com pleting the chain of communication by an almost direct line between the Midland and Eastern Counties and the Potteries, Liverpool and Ireland. The proposed line is intended to leave Derby on the south, passing near to Etwall and crossing the Dove at Tutbury, to continue through the valley of that river to Uttoxeter ; it will then proceed by the intervening valleys, by Longton and Lane End to Stoke in the heart of the Potteries, and thence to Crewe; the last link (from Stoke to Crewe) is intended to be supplied by the Grand Junction Potteries Branch.--The lino will thus traverse a district at present totally without railway accommodation, and (except fer a portion of it) act included in any other project. A preliminary view has been taken, and the line presents no engineering difficulties of importance. The line is proposed to be taken in such a direction as to avoid objections by gentlemen having residences near it, and the land owners generally.
