It proposes to effect a commencement of a system which shall have for its object the connexion of the several Indian preeideneies with each other, and with the nearest point of intercourse with Europe at Bombay, and at the same time to develOpe the groat and unimproved resources of the interior of the Peninsula. The vast importance of the object has been fully recognised by the least India Company and the Board of Control, who are prepared to undertake such surveys as may be necessary to enable them to take into consideration the general question of railroads in India. The promoters of this measure hare represented to these authori ties that this Company may propably find, on due inquiry, that it will be impracticable to execute the intended roads without a guarantee by the Government of a certain though small dividend, or of some equivalent advantage; they have therefore much satisfac tion in stating that the Government proposes to depute to India a akilfnll engineer, to be associated with others to be appointed by the Goverment of India for investigating the subject ; and when the in tbrmation to be so obtained shall ha v e b een received, it will be pre pared to take into consideration the mod e and extent of whatever pecuniary luminance it may be proper for the Government of India to afford towarde the execution o f p ro j ect s of this desertption. It is understood that the survey of an experimental line will be executed as soon as possible, with the especial sanction and aseist• ance of the Government, as stated above, by whom the cost of such survey or surveys will be borne, and the requisite arrangements, if say, with the native Governments and the owners of the land will be undertaken. On the completion of these preliminary steps it will remain for the Shareholders to determine whether or not the very exac t i n f orma ti on engineering character of the prospect. of the undertaking , as thus asc ertained, and the terms asserted to by the Governmen t, will warrant the further prosec u ti on of the design. From documents, to which awes has been most liberally given by in tendedht .e b Directorsbeen lines noeb.ta; the i o tnh f / ip. s. East mteo t h authenticelndia Company, general source, and th e commun i cat i ons of gentlemen long engaged in high political and military service in the Deccan, have supplied the facts on which the following statements are founded. It eppears highly proballe from these that further in quiries data. In that ease the from the Government in otmarpl nis w ill iiym :I lead nt bo: t s o h a teac m b h t pe f ad a n v uy o n u od r no a rs b aa l e t ic ie a e er tt r t r , yr r and Issue in the final 1 esb India, and if necessary a charter from the Crown will subsequently be applied for. In this state of timings the Provisional Directors censider themselves justified in laying the proposed undertaking before the public. It has been agreed that the capital of the Company shall be fixed at 6,000,0001., in share% of 501. each, making 120,000 shares, upon which it will be re quired that a deposit of 21. les. per share shall be paid at the time of issue. The amount of these deposits will be invested in Exchequer Bills or East India Bonds, or in such other securities as may be con sidered safe ; and as the disbursements of the Great Indian Railway Company will he limited to such expenses as may arise out of pro ceedings necessarily connected with the preliminary surveys, and to such other charges as are incidental to its general management, it may be safely assumed that the interest to accrue on deposits 'will al most, if not altogether, defray all the expenses of a preliminary cha racter. If, therefore, it should be hereafter judged to be inexpedient be carry out the present intentions of the Great Indian Railway Com pany, either from the unfavourable reports of the engineer officers, or item the support to be given to the Railway Company by the Ho nourable the East India Company, under the permission of her Majesty's Government, not being considered adequate by a majority of the Shareholders, the deposit of 21. 10a. per share, and the interest which shall have accrued upon its investment, will be returned sub ject to the payment of all necessary expenses. It is not intended to proceed until after the report of the engineers in India shall have been received, and the result of the investigation duly submitted to the Shareholders, nor in any case is it intended to execute the line, except in portions ; and the calls will only be made with reference to the portions so commenced. It is proposed that the has to be undertaken by this Company shall commence at Bom bay, ascend the Western Ghants, and pass Ahmednuggur into the valley of the Golavery ; it will then traverse the plains which skirt that river until it has crossed the Manjera, a few miles beyond which It will turn towards time south-east, following a series of connected and fertile valleys, and on emerging from this district, near Kura neummet, it will take a nearly straight course to the Goda v ery , whi c h it will pass a few miles above Rajamundry, and thou proceed to Its terminus at Coringa. Four bran c h es will issue from suitable points on the main line ; those to the north will terminate for the present at the frontiers of Candeish, and at Nagpoor, the latter having a sub-branch to Oornrawutty ; these will form the first portion. of lines hereafter extending to the Ganges and Caleutte ; those to the south will extend to Shoolapoor and Hydrabad, and be capable of being eventually continued to Madras. From the great field of India, as yet unappropriated by r ailwa y en terprise, this main line has b een se l ec ted, on account of its gr e a t and numerous advantages. It will h ave a large p r esent goods traffic ; it passes through countries whose susceptibility of im p rovement will occasion great increase of its t ra ffi c ; it connects the two coasts ; and, with the aid of steam navigation in the Bay of Bengal, will give present speedy communication between the three presidencies, in ad vance of its ultimate effect, their connexion by railway. One terminus is the noble port of Bombay, the other is the only harbour on the Co romandel coast. The route selected by which it traverses the eastern side of the peninsular is certainly the best to be found, and probably the only one which will not require heavy works and stationary en gines. Its branches reach to most important districts and cities, and will form the first portlous of railways of great importance hereafter. It will greatly increase and cheapen the supply of cotton from India to England and China, apd strengthen time political influence of England in India and time adjacent countriee. The length of the main line and branches will be about 1,300 miles t the cost, including time apparatus required for the ascent of the Western Giants, will probably not reach 6,000,0001. This estimate is founded on careful inquiry into time costs in India of such structures as will be suitable to the circumstances and traffic of the country. The amount of tonnage to be expected on each half of time line is , about 250,000 tone per annum, of which the greater part Is salt, from the coast to the interior, and cotton in the other direction. The price of carriage in these parts of India is nowhere less than 314 d. per toe greater part of it is done by droves of small oxe n, travelling six or per mile, and then only in the few cases of carts on level roads. The seven miles a day, at a charge of more than ad. per ton per mile. Since railways can be worked as cheaply In India as in England, and time English charge, which bears a profit, is 2d. p er ton per mile, it follows that the English charge can safely ample returns to time at once ensure time traffic, and bring be made in India, and will share holders. The annual receipts calculated on the foregoing data will n amount to 1,091,4661., and the coot of worki n g time line, according "- t be obtained, will be to the best information which can at' pre little more than one-half that sum, leaving a surplus available for a dividend of 84 per cent. These results, though stated in gross and roughly, are founded on careful inquiry, already obtained from the authentic sources which ha ve l been before and analyeis of information referred to. No injurious competition can in factinterfere with nart of the vast dis kind ; and there are no navigable rivers Any d t for a short 'stance near Wets which the lines will traverse, excel , them, for only few common roads exist, and those of time worst time eastern coast. on the goods traffic be- The foregoing calculation proceeds solely tween the coast and the interior. All receipts for passenger traffic , the local trade of the country, and sclude • the carriage of troops, mails, and Governmen th store , are ex a obably large mou d nt ' they are kept as a reserve of uncertain, thong and the experience ac and from the known habits of time popnlst on, quired from other instances of improved comm unication, will no doubt for an ample set - off aga inst any contingent error.

This line will commenes near the city of Oporto, and continuing through Lamego, will traverse the very heart of the great Wine dis trict of Portugal to Torre de Mencorro, within a few miles of the Spanish frontier. The manifest advantages of this tine render comment almost un necessary. Preliminary surveys have established the fact that there are no engineering difficulties of Importance to overcome, and the traffic of the country is even now so great, that no reasonable doubt can exist as to the lucrative nature of this investment. The improved state of affairs in the Peninsula will eventually ensure the extension of this line to the ancient and populous city of Sala manca, and the very heart of Spain. It is difficult to estimate the beneficial results of the completion of such a line. An Immense dis trict of the most fertile country in Europe will be broughf into imme diate contiguity with the sea-coast, and thence, by consequence, with England and all the maritime nations of the world. The Provisional Committee avail themselves of the earliest possible opportunity to apprise the public that such legal measures will be adopted, as must afford the Subscribers to this Compapy ample pro tection.

The promoters of this Railway have great satisfaction in an nouncing that they have received a favourable report from Alexander Gibb, Esq., civil engineer, Aberdeen. The undertaking is now proved to be practicable ; and it will very soon be shown that it will be profit able—because, as this line is the shortest to all the Northern Coun ties, not excepting Inverness, it will obtain, to a great extent, the traffic between these counties and the south. The superiority of this line, as publicly announced on the 25th ult., is indeed already partially demonstrated by several subsequent attempt% to appro priate some portion of it. The noblemen and gentlemen, more im mediately interested in " The Direct Northern Railway," will no doubt support those who procure the opinion of an intelligent engi neer, and take every precaution to ascertain the probable traffic be fore presuming to issue any detailed prospectus. So soon as the tables of traffic are completed, the prospectus will be issued ; and, in the meantime, all information on this vital point, will be thankfully received by Messrs.

This Railway is projected to continue the line of communication from the terminus of the proposed Manchester, Buxton, Matlack, 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 Ilolyhead, and by a junction with the Midlands Railway, in the parish of hawley, by the Erewash Valley, the nearest route from Lancashire and Yorkshire to the South. The town and environs of Nottingham oontaiu 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 that important district to Manchester and Liverpool, as compared with existing routes t and the same advantage will also be derived by the towns of Leicester and Loughborough. Independently of the great tram. 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 else pass through the extensive Nottinghamshire and Derby shire coal-field ; and by its junction with the Midlands Railway, at Amber-gate, and its ermtiguity to the limestone and gritstone quarries of Derbyshire, afford an unlimited quaatity 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 eattle, cern, and ether produce of the Eastern Agricultural Counties, and also of cotton, silk, and other raw materials, now brought by a circuitous, dilatory, and expansive 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 large 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. Karp and Son, Derby ; Mr. Eyre, Derby ; Messrs.

A Company is in course of formation by the local and canal interest for the purpose of carrying forward the proposed Manchest.l and Nottingham, Erewash Valley, and Amber Gate Railway to Grantham vil Bingham. This Railway will traverse a large and populous agricultural dis trict, connecting it with the great coal and mineral field of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, and will offer the shortest practicable route from the Eastern Counties to Manchester, Liverpool, and Holyhead. Proposals will be made for uniting this Line with that already pro jected, called the Nottingham, Erewash Valley, Amber Gate, and Manchester Railway, and of the Canal interests along the route of the projected Railway.

This important line of railway will commence near the Midland Counties Station at Nottingham, whence, after crossing the navi gable River Trent, the line will proceed through er near Bridgeford, ilolme, Ratcliffe, and the intermediate villages, Bingham, Bot teeford, Whatton, Elton, the rich and fertile Vale of Belvoir, to the town of Grantham, thence passing through or near Folkinghant and Bourn, or one of them, to Spalding, Long Sutton. Sutton-bridge, and King's Lynn,and there joining the intended Lynn and East Dereham Railway, will form the most direct line of connexion be tween the Eastern Counties, and the great and populous neanufac taring districts of Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Staffordshire, by means of the projected Grand Union Extension line to Amber Gate, and other lines north of Nottingham ; and by means of the line to Yarmouth will also form a communication between the Eastern and Western coasts of the Kingdom. The Southern parts of Lincolnshire, and the North Eastern parts 0f Cambridgeshire, will be afferded a direct facility of intercourse with tome of the best markets In England. The neighbourhood of Nottingham being the meet Eastern part cut 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 lered available to the whole of the great agricultural eemstry East of Nottinglunn. Surveys are now in pregrees, and the nature of the country is mown to offer no serious engineering difecnities, and a great portion It the Line will be nearly a dead level. The consideration if an ex tension of the Line from Spalding or Long Sutton to Wisbeaoh. will also form a portion of the scheme. 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 from the Interior of Lincolnshire, by sea, from the port of Boston to f,oudon, including freight; insurance, lighterage, commisslen, and other charges, is stated to annunt to very near Bs. The charge by Railway per quarter (allowing five quarters to the ton, at the charge 11,4 d. per ton, per mile, at which the estimate of the Cambridge d Lincoln Railway is taken) would not exceed Is., and the re maining charges are calculated not to exceed 2s. ed., thus showing ft benefit to the corn growers and to the public of 3a. 6d. per quartet', )ocasioned by the saving of the sums now paid for insurance. ,lelay, loss In weight, depreciation of quality, lighterage, etc.". still more anportaiet advantage te the Farmer is afforded by the opporteelty given by railway communicatioas of availing himself romptly of the most favourable market. It frequently happens that owing to the delay and difficulty of tran.smiselen, the Farmer is com pelled to sell his wheat at the nearest provincial market at a price considerably below the average rate, sad to lose the advantage of a temporary rise." " Whatever tends to equalise prices and to prevent excessive fluc tuations cannot but be considered as a benefit both to the producer end the consumer. We are satisfied that much may be done in this way by an economical and well arranged system of railway cm. municatien." The same remarks apply to the whole of the great inanutitoturing filstriets of Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Staffordshire. The great quantity of land, amounting to 100,000 acres, about le be redeemed from the sea by a company, with Sir John Renate, as Engineer for the promoters, and Mr. Reudel, for the Corporation of Lysin, must ultimately prove of great advantage to tkis under taking. And, it it is coneelved, that the Grand Union Railway must meet with the cordial co-operation of the Midland Railways as an immense traffic will be brought along these lines en routeallirming. tam, the Potteries, and the whole of the manufaeturingliPtriets of qtagfordshire. The traffic upon the intended Nottingham and Mans field, Sheffield and Newark, Manchester, Sheffield, and Midland June :lon, and the Sheffield and Manchester lines, mast also derive a great increase of traffic from this line of railway. The Cambridge and .Incoln Railway must also be greatly bouelted.

Symonds, Esq., M.D. • While the City of Bristol has taken the lead in some of tne great improvements of the age, and many public works have been carried into effect by the enterprise and perseverance of her inhabitants, it is remarkable that she still remains subject to one of the greatest social and commercial evils which can be endured by the population of a large city. tieh, however, is the fact, and the occupiers of the residencos of the more opulent, the manufacturers In many large establishments, the trading population in the centre and principal streets, the crowded inmates of the dwellings of the working classes and the poor, are all, more or less, suffering from the want of adequate sup plies of pure water. On reference to the official Report of the Commissioners lately pre sented to both Houses of Parliament by command of her Majesty, it will be found that the defective supply of water to the City of:Bristol is alluded to in the following forcible manner : " The City of RH: tol, containing, with Clifton,l3o,ooo inhabitants, is not supplied with water under the provisions of any act of Parliament, and the supply is most inadequate, probably more so than in any town of equal size in England ; it is estimated that not more than 5,000 per sons, constituting the most wealthy families in Bristol and Clifton, are supplied with water by pipes laid on to their houses, the remainder are dependant on public and private wells." " These are very numerous, but the water is frequently unfit for use, being tainted by the feculent matter from the cesspooli, which oozes through the porous soil, and intermingles with the water. Tho extremely filthy condition of the habitations of the poor in Bristol is attributed by the medical men, whose statements are cited in the Report on that City, to the groat deficiency and the difficulty of ob taining water." With a view to remedy this groat evil, the gentlemen whose names are attached to this prospectus, after meeting, and conferring with many of their fellow-citizens, have formed themselves into A Provi sional Committee to establish Water Works, on a scale commensurate with the present wants and the increasing requirements of the mu lotion, and they now invite the aid and co-operation of other gentle men desirous to see this great improvement effected, so that Bristol may no loner remain in the almost singular position of being the only large city in the kingdom without this groat, and, indeed, indie pensable accommodation. Assuming more moderate eharges to be made by the Bristol Water Works Company, for as unlimited supply of pure filtered water de livered into every tenement in Bristol and its suburbs, than are now Incurred for the scanty supplies of the inferior water, as described in the Report of the Commissioners, with a moderate addition from the proprietors of breweries, manufacturers, hotels, baths, and other es • tablishments requiring large supplies, the Committee are convinced that their calculations of a full return on the capital axe founded on a just basis. • In all other cities and towns, where similar works have been esta blished, they have been attended with great advantage to the public, combined with fair profit to the proprietors ; and in Bristol, which the Report of her Majesty's Commissioners shows to be so deficient in this most important provision, it cannot be doubted that similar results must follow.
