Gactesden, Esq. OFFICES—No. 70, King William-street, Mansion-house, London a is nd to th fo u rr t line of railway, from Bristol and Bath to D over; , The object of the promoters of this Company unite, connect, or reciprocate with, all the existing an d prolected lines of railway in the south and southwest and west of England, as well also as form a complete communication with Ireland and all the western and Welsh railways, and most of those in the northern and great manufacturing districts, by which passengers and goods to and from Folkestone and Dover, France and Belgium, may be conveyed without the necessity of passing through the me tropolis. The main line to be laid down by the Company will be considerably less than 100 miles, throughout which the strongest encouragement and support have been manifested towards this railway by the landed proprietors, many of whom have determined to invest capital in the undertaking ; and the engineer's report precludes any apprehen sion of engineering difficulties. The great public utility and corn. mercial advantages of railway communication between the important places and ports which it is now contemplated to unite must be at once appreciated by reference to a map of the country, and they will be forcibly illustrated by the objects to be attained by this Company. This line is Intended to begin at Bristol by means of the Great Western Railway, and passing through Bath to Bath Hampton it will skirt the valley of the Avon, to Bradford, and thence to Trowbridge. It will then take as straight a direction as can be obtained to Devises, All Cannings, Pewsey, Burbage, Shaltorne, West Woodhay, High Clere, and Overton, on to Basingstoke, d ovv u u where it will unite with the Sauth Western Railway, and thus from the western counties the distance will be several miles shorter to the metropolis than by any other existing line. It will then, by means of the South Western Railway, proceed on to near Farnborough (a distance of fourteen miles) whence, leaving Farnham to the south, it will pass onward to Ashe, Guildford, Gomshall, and Dorking to Riegate, where it will unite with the South Eastern and Dover Railway—(the latter, eighteen miles from Guildford to Reigate will in all probability be constructed by another Company.) In its course it will thread its way through the lines of many of the railways already constructed or projected—the junction of which will not only be estimated as a great public convenience, but Prove highly advantageous to the several Companies interested,pro cing an Imm e ei h ss o e p t d ra is ffi tr c ic , u th i a n t must K stream from Ireland—from ft oi nr imarketstt.greatigoenomnf eotarfhnaetul this manufacturing t stan districts in the north—the cloth and corn m st un of ica E ti n r g n land—the mineral and coal fields of The form a dir d ec t t h col e trea e t n d t — ein a d l e l ta o t f unt wh , i a c a h t well isoto.thtoe ce t , h t. France, Belgium, and the con exceed thirty miles from Bath (andbe sav ed by this railway will Dover ; while to many of the towns all towns north-west) to miles or more will be saved by this railway i w n es u t ni or Bristol sixty the other lines ; and the often disagreeable and costonl y w n i , th cea s s o i me of ' present niftily) of puling th rough London, to or atom a (at will be entirely obviated, and manufacturers and merchants in most parts of the country, west and north, or south, will be thus en abled to forward and receive goods direct from and to Dover and Folkstone, avoiding the present inconvenient mode and expense of transference from railway to railway across London. Any attempt to distinguish the number of passengers proceed ing to or from London, or the provinces and the continent by the South Eastern and Dover Railway, would be abortive; but the published statements of that Company show that the traffic ex. ceeds 8,0001. weekly, and the accounts of arrivals at, and departures from Calais, Boulogne, and Ostend, exhibit an astonishing number of persons as passengers to and from England weekly, by Dover and Folkenstone, throughout the whole of the year. Yielding to the metropolis one-half of the number as a large proportion, the remaining half will belong to the provinces and Ireland, who will probably prefer to be conveyed from or to their localities without the annoyance of being compelled to pass through London, es pecially as the saving of distance alone will considerably diminish expenses. _ _ . The construction of this line of railway can hardly fail to meet the full approvol of the Government ; as, besides its great com mercial utility, the convenience it will afford for the speedy tran. sport of troops from Ireland, or the north, south, or west of Eng land to Dover, in a direct manner, Avoiding the present necessity of marching them across London or uther towns, after they are once placed in railway carriages, must begreatly appreciated ; and where it is expedient that expedition and secrecy should be observed in the removal of troops, the means offered by this Company will greatly assist the authorities in facilitating their objects. The railways already constructed or projected with which this line of railway will effect a union or communication, and recipro. cate, advantages exceed fifty in number (as will be seen by examin ing any railway map), and all of them must be in direct commu nication with, and will feed, or be fed by The Southern Counties Union, and Bristol, Bath, and Dover Direct Railway ; the most important junctions being those leading to this line from the north and the manufacturing districts by Oxford to Dovor and Brighton, those from Ireland, North Wales by Cheltenham or Oxford and this railway to Dover or Brighton, and those from the south and west of England by Salisbury to Dover ; thus effecting a con tinuance and direct intercourse with nearly every part of Eng land, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and the continent. The census returns show that this railway will pass through a country containing a population of upwards of one million, and this number, though large, may be fairly multiplied several tines, if all the other parts of the kingdom which will benefit by it be con. ridered. With these facts before them, the promoters have not deemed it necessary to put forth estimates of traffic; the soundness of the project being guaranteed by the truths already given in this brief exposition, and the great objects intended to be compassed by this Company.

PROSPECTUS. The objects intended to be accomplished by this undertaking are 1. The supply of local railway accommodation to the important districts embraced by the line. 2. The benefit cf railway communication with the metropolis to a district of country upwards of 50 miles in length at present unprovided with that accommodation. 3. The completion of the chain of railway communication between ptioiert,,, including riverSev and tha eni tof Hull. the southern and western counties, and the north-eastern districts of the kingdom and the river 1 - Itiniber, and it a Commencing at the town of Northampton, in conjunction with the London and Birmingham, and the lines of railway proposed to colt- Verge at that town from Cheltehhamp and the west trOg; Worcester and from Warwick, the line will proceed in a direct course to the market town of Kettering, by which place all the companies cons peti.ig for the line of railway between London and Manchester pro pose to pass. It will then proceed, also, in a direct course to the market towns of Uppingham, Oakham, and Grantham, to Lincoln. The country lying between the towns of Northampton and Gran tham is wholly without existing or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to the south, but also to the north. At Lincoln the line will fork, and proceed on the one hand in a northerly direction to the flourishing port of Gainsborough, and on the other by a north-eastern course to the market town of Market Raisen, on the rising port of Great Grimsby. By an union with the Sheffield and Great Grimsby Junction Rail way at Market Raisen, a d rest and uninterrupted chain of commu nication will be established between all the above-mentioned districts and the town and port of Hull. The sources of traffic which this line will secure are various and very considerable ; sonic of them only can be here enumerate', viz. : Starting from Great Grimsby the line will appropriate to itself the whole of the traffic thence to the metropolis, and also the southern anti western districts of the country, and, in addit'on, it will secure the important and increasing local traffic between that town and Market Raisen and Lincoln. From Gainsborough, the termini of several ralways from the north and north-west, this line will carry the traffic to Lincoln, its county town. The traffic from Hull to the metropolis, and also to the west, will enter upon this line at Market Batten, and proceed thereon to Lincoln. From Lincoln the whole of the traffic passing to the west and the intermediate towns must pass over this line. In the event of the Cambridge and Lincoln Railway Company not obtaining the r Bill, then the traffic from Lincoln to the south and west, and also the metropolis, will pass along this line of railway ; the former the whole distance, and the latter at any event to Gran tham, a distance of about twenty-five miles ; and should the London and York Company not succeed, such traffic will proceed on to Ket tering or Northampton. The enti: e district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance of more than forty unites, and including the market towns of Oakham and lippingham, is without railway or water-carriage accommoda tion, and the whole of its traffic therefore will travel over this line of railway, which will be in the direct course not only to the west but also to London. ...... At Kette , ing this line will unite with that one of the now com peting schemes passing that town from Manchester and Leicester to London which shall be successful before Parliament. The country is free from engineering difficulties, with one or two exceptions only, and those are more than counterbalanced by the very favourable gradients of by far the greate - : portion of the line ; indeed, for many miles the line will run upon a water level. The lire will not interfere with any ornamental property. The landowners on the line are favourable to the undertaking. The promoters reserve power to alter and vary the route, and ex tend the proposed line of railway, and to increase the amount of capital, as may be necessary or advisable.

SURVETOR—Mr. Joseph Tootell. BANKERS—The London and County Bank. The principal object this Company has in view is, the completion of a li7-s of railway throughout the entire South-Western and Eastern Coasts of England, and it is well known that coast lines of railway invariably meet with the support of Government, and seldom has any Company come before the public with objects which are so mani festly to the interest of the executive cordially to support. 'f he coast line will be completed thus, by commencing at Dover, and using the South-Eastern line to a point on it beyond F. lkstone, near to Newington, from thence it will proceed to the populous towns and watering places of Sandgate, Hythe, Dymchurch, New Romney, and Lydd, and thence on to Rye; at Rye it will join the branch which the South-Eastern Company have an Act for making from Ashford (via Rye) to Hastings ; but should the South-Eastern Company decline to make this branch, this Company will them, continue their line on to Hastings, and thereby forming a junction with the Brighton and Hastings Rail way, effect the object of the Company, viz., an entire and unbroken chain of Coast Railway from Dover to Brighton, Portsmouth, Southampton, Poole, Dorchester, Exeter, Plymouth, and Falmouth. The advantages which such a line presents are too numerous and apparent to need enumeration. The traffic Mlles, got up with infinite labour and care by the To pre-eminently from Hastii,gs to Doe Brighton and Hastings Company, show a very large remuneration the on the capital invested in that railway, and whatever applies to that line of railway, applies with:eqtml, if not greater force, to a continua tion important r agricultural district of Romney Marsh, this line offers advantages which it was most unduly deprived of by the contention between the London and Brighton and the South-Eastern Companies, which resulted in the interest of the Lon don and Brighton stopping suddenly in a terminus at Hastings ; and, on the other hand, the South-Eastern carrying a branch from Ashford to Hastings, thus leaving the whole of Romney Marsh entirely un provided with a speedy and ready mode of transit ibr the immense produce of that valuable district, as welt to the east as to the west, which are alike supplied by it with cattle. By this line the large and wealthy graziers of the Marsh will be enabled toleffeet the object they have had so long in view, of sending their stock at once, in good con dition, speedily and cheaply to and from the London and other mar kets. The line is one of singular facilities of construction, the whola of the Marsh Leine perfectly goo and sound greund for railway purposes, and the entire ab. ence of interposing difficulties which occur in nearly every other line of railway will render this one comparatively cheap in its construction. The inhabitants of Sandgate, Burmarsh, Hythe, New Romney, Lydd, and Rye, have sprung forwardmost zealously to support this company, as affording them facilities they are so justly entitled, from their position, to demand. A most powerful company has come before the public for making a railway from Cheltenham to Brighton, by means of which line, and others before el,umerated, a direct and expeditious course is opened between the whole of the eastern, western, and midland, ports of England, and the important mercantile and naval stations on the south coast of England. From the estimates prepared, it is confidently anticipated that the whole of the proposed capital will not be required.

Benn, Rugby William Tibbits, Esq., Stratford-on-Avon Anthony Sproule, Esq., Tewkesbury. BANKERs—Messrs. Rogers, Olding, and Co., Clement's-lane, London SECRETARY—henry Brookes, Esg The proposed railway will commence at Rugby, on the London and Birmingham Railway, the terminus of the Midland Counties • and Trent Valley Railways, and the paint to which several other projected railways converge, and will proceed through or near to Leamington, Warwick, Stratford-on-Avon, Eveshani, Tewkesbury, and Chelteneam, to Gloucester. The length of the line will be about 56 miles. The advantages that will resultfrom the construction of this line are numerous and highly important, and such as cannot fail to secure a very large amount of local and through traffic, and a highly-re munerative return upon the capital invested. By means of existing and proposed railway s, it will ferm a complete chain of railway com munication beim en the whole of the midland and north-eastern counties of Eneland, the populous cities and towns before-named, and the southern and western districts, anti thus bring Leicester, Not tingliatn, Newark, Lincoln, Gainetorough, Great Grimsby, and Hull, into direct communication with the favourite and fashionable spas of Leamington and Cheltenham, the richly-productive and far-famed Vale of Evesham, and the seaports of Gloucester, Bristol, Plymouth, and Falmouth, and those of South Wales. The inhabitants and visitors of the nruch-frequented watering places of Leamington and Cheltenham, will thus obtain a direct line between those reeorts, instead of the present circuitous route through Birmingham, affording that facility of intercommunication which has long been ardently desired ; and it will also afford the utmost fa cility of access to the innumerable visitors who, attracted as well by the beauty of the scenery as the memory of Shakspeare, annually resort to Stratford-on-Avon. To those passengers from the east and north-east, direct to Glou- Gloucester, the line from Tewkesbury, cutting off the angle of the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway to Cheltenham, will afford a great accommodation. and a saving in distance of at least eight miles, besides the delay of the stoppage at Cheltenham. ea Tewkesbury it will also form a junction with the proposed line from that place to Malvern, affording the most direct communication to the numerous visitors to the magnificent scenery and invigorating atmcsphere of the celebrated Malvern-hills. To the inhabitants of the ancient and populous borough of Tewkes bury, this portion of the proposed line will prove immensely advan tageous ; situated within ten miles of the important city and port of Gloucester, they have nevertheless to travel by the present railway route nearly twice that distance, an inconvenience which has already materially affected the trade, and prejudiced the ntere-ts of the town. The proposed line, running close to the town, will remove this great incon . enienee, and restore its trade to its former state of prosperity. The value of this line to the city and port of Gloucester cannot be too highly estimated, as it will not only open to it immen, e sources of traffic from the whole of the eastern and north-eastern counties, but will very materially lessen the distance between it and Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and South Stafeirdshire, making Gloucester still more securely the nearest and most accessible outlet for the whole of that immensely productive manufacturing region , and it is impossible to conceive any project better calculated to advance the interests of Gloucester, than one capable of effecting that object. This line will also form an important junction between the London and Birmingham and Midlands Railways, and the Bristol and Gloucester Rail Way, and constitute the highway for the traffic of the former, and of all the north-eastern railwayseto the proposed Man chester and Southampton Railway at Cheltenham ; and the through traffic from the latter source alone is expected to be very great.; It will thus have the effect of connecting the ports of the eastern and north-eastern with those of the western and southern coasts ; of affording the most direct and convenient access from the north and east'to the teat mineral regions of South Wales, and of opening new markets for the rich products of the fertile valleys of the Avon and Severs, and the agricultural districts of Warwickshire and Wor • cestershire, in the manufacturing towns and ports of the north. The line will be easy of construction, traversing, as it does, through nearly its whole length, the valleys of the Avon and Severn. The towns through which it will run are very populous, and the country of the richest description ; and the local traffic will consequently be very great in addition to the through traffic, which on such a line must necessarily be very extensive. The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the pcwer to amalgamate with any other company as to the whole or any part of the line and to vary or extend the line , and to i nc rea s e or diminish the capital accordingly, if deemed expedient. The capital proposed to be raised is 1,000,9001., in shares of 201, upon which a deposit of 2/. 25. per share must be paid upon allot ment. The liability of the subscribers will be limited by the Act to the amount of their respective subscriptions to the capital stock, and power will be applied for in the Act to allow interest at the rate of 41. per cent.per annum on the amount of the deposit. and upon the re spective calls, from the date of each payment until the opening of the line. The Subscribers' Agreement and the Parliamentary Contract will be required to be duly executed when the bankers' receipts are ex changed for certificates of scrip, of which due notice will be given ; and the deposits paid by persons making default in due execution bf the Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract within the iliac to be limited by such notice, will be absolutely forfeited. Forms of application for shares, prospectuses, and a map of the line, may be obtained from the Sol icitors, or the Secretary, at the Offices of the Company, 28, Essex-street, Strand, London, or from any of the undermentioned Sharebrokers ; but no application will be attended to unless accompanied by a reference to one of the Provi sional Committee, the Solicitors, or a Banker.
