Huddersfield—The Halifax and Huddersfield 'Union Banking Com. pany. SOLICITORS. Mr. William Barker, }New-street, Huddersfield, Messrs. Brook and Freeman, _ _ . The object of this undertaking is io form a 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, in Lancashire, through the inter vening country between Huddersfield and Bury, for which extension a line of railway only 25 miles in length is requisite. The proposed line will commence at the Huddersfield station, between which place and Leeds Parliament has already sanctioned the !ortnation of rail ways, and from Huddersfield the proposed line will proceed by way of Hillhouse, Birchencliffe, and Lindley, and thence along the valley between Stainland and Greetland, through Bar Vsland, the Vale of Ripponden, and by Rochdale to Bury, in Lancashire, where it will join the terminus of the Liverpoo , and Bury line of railway. In addition to completing a direct communication from Liverpool to Leeds, Hull, and Goole by the shortest practicable route, and by a much smaller outlay of capital than by any other proposed line, it will provide for a large and important manufacturing populadon, hitherto without the advantage of railway accommodation, an outlet to the south by means of the Huddersfield and Sheffield Junction Railway, and to Manchester and North and 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, in addition to the advantages which it presents as a through line, pass through a succession of valleys thickly studded with mills and manufactories, consuming a large quantity of raw materials and coal, all of which are brought fro in a distance, and transmitting to other districts the produce of their in dustry, for which purposes a line of railway has become absolutely necessary, and there can be no doubt that au ample return will be realised for the outlay of capital required. The distance between lindderstield and Rochdale by the preseni line of railway is thirty miles, which by the proposed railway wil be reduced to seventeen miles. The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the right of en tering into any arrangements with existing railway companies that may appear desirable. And power will be taken by the Act of Par liament to allow interest to the shareholders at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum on the amounts paid on their shares from tile respective times of payment to the times of opening the railway. Applications for shares may be addressed, in the subjoined form, to any of the undermentioned Sharebrokers, viz.—Messrs.

' From its proximity to the Continent, the port of Dover will always be the most accessible point of the English coast ; an expeditiouS communication therefore bet Ween that and the other ports, harbours, and inland:towns of the United Kingdom, must necessarily be regarded as a great national advantage. Dover is at present the chief port of embarkation for Calais, Bodlogne, Ostend, and other continental towns, and the vast numbers already resorting there both on business and pleasure, will be im measnrabty increitsed•when , the railwtrs of France, Belgiont, landi and Gilman.), arc fully brought into operation. Jet .t ' In addition to which, the Government Commissioners having selected Dover as a Harbour of Reilige, and recommended the outlay then. of '1,500,0001., It cannot tail of becoming a place of the greatest resort fvr the shipping and commercial interests of the coun try, and perhaps the most Important town on the southern coast. In every point of view, therelbre, whether for national security, or for travelling excursions, or the invaluable interests of our shipping and commerce, the paramount importance of a cheaper, more conve nient, and accelerated intercourse between this great port and all parts of the kingdom, must be sufficiently obvious. This the pm meters fully anticipate will be attained by the proposed railway, which will form a portion of a grand trunk line, completing the chain of railway cot:muffle:llion ..pen the narrow gauge between the south-eastern coast, and Bristol and the western, northern, and mid land counties. The hue will commence at the terminus of the South-Eastern Ball way at Reigate, proceed thence by Dorking, Godalming, Farnham, and Odiham to the Basings;oke station, on the South-Western Rail way. It will then proceed by Andover towards Devizes, Trow ' bridge, and Bradford, with a branch to Path, and pursaing its course through the Somersetshire coal-field, throwing off a branch towards Itadstock into the heart of the collieries,' terminals hi a junction with the Bristol - and Birmingham Railway at Bristol. By its course through Dorking, Godahning, Farnham, and Wi liam, it will supply the railway accommodation so much required by those towns, and connect the rich and fertile hop districts of Surrey, Kent, and South Hants, and atlbrd the means of conveyance of their produce to the great Hop-fair at Weyhill. By Its junction with tha contemplated " Reading, Guildford, and Reigate Railway It will Word to the inhabitants of Reading, Oxibrd, and to the midland counties generally, the best and shortest route to the Continent, as well as to Worthing, Hastings, Brighton, and the other watering-places in Su ssex and Kent; and a vast increase of visitors will undoubtedly be attracted to those places from the interior of England by the accommodation and facilities tim travelling which will be accomplished by this and the proposed railway front Reading. By its intersection of the South-Western Railway at Basingstoke, and of the proposed Manchester and Southampton Railway further west, the present line will connect Dover towards the south, with Southampton (the packet station for the East and West Indies, &c.), Gosport, and lortsmouth, and towards the north, with Cheltenham, Gloucester, Worcester. Birmingham, Manchester, and Liverpool, also with Shrewsbury, Chester, and Holyhead; and iu fact with the whole of North and South Wales. At Basingstoke, also, this li ne join the proposed London, Salis bury, and Yeovil Railway, and throw open to Dover and the south eastern counties the populous a: d wealthy cities of Salisbury and Exeter, the rich agricultural counties of Wilts, Dorset, Somerset, and Devon, the p ,rts of Plymouth, Devonport, and Falmouth, and the mineral regions or Cornwall. Ts Devizes, Trowbridge, Bradford, and Bath, and the other towns in the vicinity of its course, the benefit which this line will confer can.uot be too highly estimated ; to the coal districts of Somerset shire it will open large and constant markets both hi Bristol and to the south and east, while to the inhabitants of pristA especially, con necting its channel with the Straits of Dover and the Downs, pro viding a perfect line "for telegraphic communication, and securing to them the whole of the trade between the south-east of England and the west and south of Ireland, it seems difficult, considering the enor mous traffic which must necessarily flow to that city, to conceive a project more deserving of their cordial support. In the memorable Parliamentary contest last session between two great rival companies, the Legislature for the first time admitted that princip!e of competition with existing interests which was claimed by the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Company for the protection and benefit of the public and it is with no fear of the result that the promoters of the present undertaking invite attention to one distinguishing fea . ure it contains, viz , that by the construction of the line from Bristol t Basingstoke, the Box Tunnel will be avoided, and a new and independent communication will be established between Bristol and London, by a shorter line on the narrow gauge than by the devious course of the Great Western, lode . pendently of all the advantages of the proposed central station at Ilungerford-bridge, and the convenient access to the Thames both there and at Nine Elms, over the distant and inconvenient station of the Great Western at Paddington. In length the proposed line will be nearly 110 miles (assuming this Company to have the construction of that portion between Reigate and Dorking, for which plans have been deposited by the South- Eastern Company)—the country through which it passes does nos present any engineering difficulties of moment, nor will any resi dential or ornamental property be interfered with except under an imperative necessity. A reserve of shares will be made for landowners on the line, and the Committee also retain to themselves the power to vary the course of the line with reference to any arrangements with existing interests and projected lines that may be considered advantageous to the shareholders. The capital proposed to be raised is 1,500,0001., in 75,000 shares of 201. each, with a deposit of Si. 2s. per share, to be paid on allotment. Power will be taken by the Act to allow interest, at 41. per cent. per annum, upon all deposits and subscriptions until the opening of the line, and no subscriber shall be answerable for more than the amount of his deposit until the Act has been obtained, and then not. beyond the amount of his subscription. The Subscribers' Agreement and the Parliamentary Contract will be ready for execution, and the scrip issued immediately upon pay ment of the deposits. Applications for shares must be addressed to the Secretary, at the Offices of the Company, No. 12, Gray's Inn•place, only ; but II) appli cation will be attended to unless accompanied by a reference to a member of the Provisional Committee, one of the solicitors to the Company, or a banker.

Ihe object of this line of railway is to connect by a direct route the important town and seaport of Boston with the centre of Eng land, by way of Grantham and Melton Mowbray, where it will join the Systou and Peterborough branch of the Midland Counties Railway.

The line, in its course, will unite the town of Barnet with Whet stone, Totteridge, Ilighwood Hill, Mill Hill, Finchley, Holder's Hill, Hendon, Burrows, Golder's Hill, Gutterhedge, Kingsbury, Neesdon, Wilsdon, Wilsdon Green.

The distance from the town of Barnet to the station of the London and Birmingham Railway, at Euston.square, by this route, will be 15 miles. The length of the main line, from the point of junction at Totten ham to the London and Birmingham Railway, will be 11 miles ; and the length of the branch line to Barnet, will be .04 miles. From the junction with the Birmingham Railway to Chipping Barnet, 934 miles ; from the Decoy (near Brent -street, Hendon), on the proposed Barnet and North metropolitan Junction Railway, to the Nortnern and Eastern Counties Railway, by Stamford-hill, 6% mires. There are no engineering difficulties throughout the entire distance. The line will proceed beyond the range of the Highgate and Hamp stead Hill; and the branch fl•o:n the main line to Barnet will follow the valley of the river Brent to the intended station at Barnet ; thus the expense of construction will be less than any other metropolitan line of railway, for the above reason, and because it will pass through an agricultural district, avoiding all ornamental property ar_d large collections of houses and buildings. Upon the completion of this railway - , a large and dally-increasing population, resident beyond the limits of the metropolitan omnibuses, will be largely benefited, and land and agricultural produce, hitherto affording an inadequate return to their cultivators, will be quad rupled in value. The ancient, populous, and once-flourishing town of Barnet, too, will now have a railway communication of its own, without depend ing upon the caprice or uncertain goodnature of any company who may hold out a prospect of a branch, in future times, from some of the trunk lines now contemplated. An ample return of profit to the investments of shareholders may be safely anticipated, and will arise from the following sources, amongst others:- 1. From the conveyance of passengers. 2. From the carriage of goods and merchandise from the City and Docks, &c., to the several railways which are intersected by this line, avoiding the delay and excessive cost of conveyance through London ; also from the conveyance of cattle, &c., more particularly during the period of the large Barnet fairs 3d. From the conveyance of coal, both Inland and seaborne fuel, and other commodities of general consumption, the great expense of which has long been felt by all classes as a most grievc, eyo. The Committee c at:igen:mat reuerve to themselves the power of adopting, upon t his line, locomotive pelt er, er Prosser's Railway guide and safety wheels, as may be deemed expedient.

The entire distance being 'completed in about IC miles. The importance of this railway, though only 18 miles in length, will be at once seen by an inspection of the map, when the following points will be self-evident 1. That the port of Wisbech is the nearest sea-port for Birming ham, Staffordshire, and the Midland districts of England. 2. That this line will open the whole of the manutacturing and miner..l distrkts of the Midland Counties and the Potteries to Wis bech, the nearest port for Belgium, Holland, Germany - , and the nor thern States of Europe. 3. That by the formation of this line a direct railway ommunica- Bon will be opened between the port of Wished', and the ports of Southampton, Bristol, Gloucester, and Liverpool. 4.

The inrortance or connecting remote parts of E gland by Rail ways, with the advantages thereby conferred upon intermediate towns and districts, can scarcely be beater exenapfled than by the Line which is how proposed to form a short and direct channel of inter course between Oxford and Salisbury. Numerous projected lines now before the puhlic will make 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 east, south, and west of the latter; anti the proposed Line from Cambridge to arorcl, continuing to that city the co.:rye of Railway from the north-eastern parts of the island, requires the appliance now suggested to effect a coimplete means of transit to the western and south-western counties. The Oxford and Salisbury Direct Railway, in addition to the benefits which will be conferred upon the nation at large, by preferring a direct line of Collll.llun 'eat ion be tween the north-eastern and western and south-western parts of England, will afford to the borouth of Abingdon, the market towns of Wantage, Iltingerford, and Ludgershall, anti the adjacent villages, an important railway acconianxlation, of which the agricultural districts in which they are seated stand in much need, and will provide a facility for the interchange of produce be tween the rural, manufacturing, and commercial population of the kingdom. The want of railway accommodation has long been felt to press unfairly upon the inhabitants of the important and thriving town of Abingdon. Their means and opportunities of competing with the more fortunate traders of those towns which are already provided with di rect channels of transit, are thus sevet.ly crippled. The same remark applies iu some degree to the market town of Wautage, which, as well as Hungerford and Ludgershall, claims a share of the profits and advantages produced isy railway traffic. It has therefore been determined to commence the propose& ne at Oxford, and to proceed through Abingdon to the station of the Great Western Railway at Steventon, thus giving to Abingd it a direct rail road to London. By continuing the projected railway to Wantage, the same facility of transit to London will be afforded to that place; and a perfect line of road from the north•eastern counties will, by a Junc tion with the projection troin Cambridge to Oxford, be produced, through the towns which have been named, liungertord and Ludgers hall to Salisbury, and thence to time south anti western ports and dis tricts. A map of the line, and a statistical report of the whole country intended to be traversed, is in course of preparation, and with the names of an influential provisional Conitnlttee, will very shortly be published. In the meantime, further information may be ob tained from Nessrs. Elmslie and Preston, 47, iiloorgate-street, London, solicitors to the undertaking, to whom, at present, applies tiou for shares may be made.
