A glance at the snap will show that this will be the most direct line for the London and Manchester traffic; uniting those two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railways. It will also completely accommodate the local traffic and manufac•turees, and open several extensive coal fields an•l some thou sand acres of wood land for the supply of Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the kingdom. Together, too, with the pro posed line from Derby to Crewe, it will afford a transit from the Eastern Counties and Derby to Manchester, and give every accom modation to the Potteries. This line is, in its principal features, much the same asthat already approved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the Churnet Valley Company—will be scarcely 47 miles in length, and pass:ng through the centre of the district, does not interfere with Btu Grand Junction, or any other existing railway. It is material to re mark-, that it is even more direct than the Churnet Valley as fora:cep projected to Tamworth, and is free Irons the formidable opposition of the landed interest, and the engineering difficulties consequent on the route by Ihseester and Marchington. It must be observed also that it is the only railway which has been brought forward by, and is • under the control of, the landowners and manufacturers of the Chum t and Blythe Valley districts. The co-operation of most of the principal landowners, from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield, having been obtained, and there being no competing lines projected through that district, this portion of the line may be considered as secure.

The colony of British Guiana possesses superiot physical capabi lities for the construction of railways, the country near the sea pre senting an alinest absolute level over an area of several hundred square miles. The entire produce of the district called the east coast, which is in the county of Demerara, consisting of sugar, rum, molasses, &c., as well as the supplies of the plantations, comprising coals, bricks, lime, lumber, and other bulky articles, are at present conveyed to and from George-town, the capital of the colony, and the port at which they must be landed or shipped in punts and coasting schooners, at considerable risk and expense. It is to this district that the proposed Company Wend first to direct their operations, by constructing a railway from George-town to Mahaica, a distance of twenty mile., along which line there are, besides sugar plantations, many villages, containing a numerous and increasing population. As all the risk and delay, and a great part of the expense now in curred in carrying on the traffic would thereby be obviated, there can be no doubt that it would be wholly transferred to this railway. Estimates of traffic, founded upon the tables published by the Royal Agricultural and Commercial Society of British Guiana for the year 1844, have been carefully prepared, from which It ap pears that, on a moderate scale of charges, and after making a de duction of 40 per cent. for working expenses, a return of 10 per cent. upon the capital of the Company may be fairly expected. The Provisional Comfnittee are also satisfied that a great addition to their contemplated profits will progressively arise from the con tinued influx of labour into the colony, as well as from the natural increase of the population. The existing estates along the line are capable of doubling their present production as soon as they can (by an accession of labour) be fully cultivated, and thereby yield an ado quate profit; and the cultivation of many estates, now abandoned, will be resumed. The Committee look forward to an early extension of the railway towards the county of Berbice, which would still further augment the traffic. Thee can be no doubt that a goject so advantageous as the pre sent in every respect to the interests of all parties connected with British Guiana will meet with the approbation of her Majesty's Government, and the cordial support of the authorities in the colony, many °t i the principal residents of which have suggested the present project. Early steps will be taken 'for the incorporation of the Company by an Act of the Colonial Legislature, to be sanctioned by the Crown, by which due provision will be made for limiting the responsi bility of the shareholders to the amounts of their respective sub scriptions. Estimates of cost have been already prepared, and the execution of the work will be entrusted to a skilful engineer, who will be sent out immediately to superintend the construction of the railway. Applications for Shares, in the fbrm annexed, and for copies of the Prospectus, may be made to the Hon. Secretary, Henry Hill, Esq., at the West India Committee Rooms, Old Jewry, on or before the 25th inst. Copies of the Prospectus may also be had from A. F.

The ELEGANT FREEHOLD VILLA of UNUSUAL I'RETENSIONS, which ADORNS the HILL and the GROUNDS are PARALLEL with the ROAD and PASSING SCENE. ALTOGETHER 14 ACRES, ENCIR. CLING the ABODE. MR. GEORGE ROBINS is much ratified in being selected to OFFER to PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction Mart, London, on Dummy NEXT, the CIE of August, at Twel , :e, FREEHOLD VILLA, which, it may bi safely affirmed, for its size, will not yield to any thing contemporaneous. It is, in fact, one of THE MOSE' DELIGHFUL BIJOUX THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE KINGDOM, and the great difficulty that presents itself to the composer is to do it justice without encountering the idea of having too higl.ly coloured the landscape. However this arduous task shall be wale's taken. BERKLEY LODGE IS HALF WAY ON THE DECLIVITY AT BOUGHTON HILL, and its splendid grounds run parallel to the passing scene of thi, interesting road. In days of yore Boughton Hill preterited a fearful obstacle to enjoy, without alloy, all the accessorks this lovely spot had in store. In our boyish days it was accounted an herculean task to reach the summit, but Mr M'Adain, with his powerful mind and "road-making 'powers, soon removed the imaginary difficulty, and that which previously was a fearful oh. stacle to encounter, is now a gentle and almost unperceived &neut. Upon this hill now dwells THE INCOMPARABLE VILLA, the property of, and completed In his usual good taste by Woollright, Esq., of which a moderated account is to follow THE GARDEN OF ENGLAND and the garden of Kent have been held as synonymous terms: and it has long since been conceded to this spot, that throughret Kent, it stands unrivalled. It is first seen nestling amid the ambrosial grounds, with clumps of trees to vary the scene, stretch. ing their wide and shadowy arms far across the green sward that encompasses it. The natural beauty of this position it will not be attempted to describe, because it is fearlessly asserted that it must be seen or it eannot be appreciated; the beauties that press on the enraptured sight, strewed by the hands of Art and Nature, combined over this surface, will hold a place in the memory which never can be effaced, and ere the visit is half completed, with common assent it will be responded to by all, THAT FAIRY LAND is in view. Of the residence little has yet been said (although an outlay of 6,000/. has just been expended on its completion), and it may be well to observe that, without being encumbered with the nuisance of too large a domicile, there is all and everything that a fatality (not too large) can desire. It has been erected within the last scree years, and whatever can be understood by the comprehensive term " comfort" will be found to hold a prominent place here ; but WITHIN THIS LITTLE ELYSIUM, is placed a GAZEEBO of NOVEL FORM, and so ingeniously contrived that the beauteous scenery by which it is so entirely surrounded is seen with immensely increased effect. It is really quite impossible to do justice to the tact that has pre sided over this great feature cf the abode. Its form is duodecagon. there are five windows, each diversifying the scene. The ingenuity that has conceived this happy effort to give ad. ditional effect to the magnificent scene is unquestionable. IT EXHIBITS A PANORAMIC VIEW, THAT YIELDS TO NOTHING THROUGHOUT ENGLAND. softened by the intermixture of features the most romantic and picturesque— " Till breathless, as we grow when feeling mos ; And silent, we stand in thoughts too deep For utterance," it produces an ensemble such as the writer of this imperfect sket ch has never before enjoyed. To give an adequate representation is quite out of the question—its beauty and its loveliness altogether forbid it, but It may be permitted to observe that THE RIVER MEDWAY AND THE MORE, which is in the distance, is, at high water, on visiting terms with Berkeley Lodge. AN ENGLISH FLEET OF 100 VESSELS has not unfrcquently aided this splendid picture. To return for a moment to the demcsne—the grounds are very extensive and luxuriant beyond imagination. There is not a landscape gardener that will not be proud to take a lesson here, and the Proprietor has added so much of ingenuity, and of variety, that the scene never tires—at every turn something new and beautiful is pre sented. In the centre is " AN OBSERVATORY 50 FEET IN HEIGHT." WHICH STANDS 350 FEET HIGHER THAN CANTERBURY. From this spot Dover and Gravesend are both brought within view, and the coast of France seen without difficulty. THE TERRACE WALK, THAT RUNS_ PARALLEL WITH THE LONDON-ROAD, is adorned by American shrubs and flowering plants without number; and to pekeet this scene there are rising in majestic grandeur in the rear CHESTER and MANCHESTER DIRECT~J RAILWAY.

The promoters of this Railway, encouraged by the favourable sup port which has been given to the project, and In compliance with various recommendations they have received, hare determined upon the addition of a branch to Birkenhead, which, although it will manifestly tend to the advantage of the Shareholders and the public, will be attended with comparatively little additional outlay. The project will still retain its chief characteristic of a direct railway, and by its connexion, near Warrington, with the Grand Junction Company, is sufficiently comprehensive, without resorting to a com plicated system of branch lines, or materially conflicting with the in-. terests of existing companies. The line will commence at the city of Chester, and proceed by way of Trafford, Frodsham, and Preston Brook, to Warrington, thence by Lymm and Stretford direct to Manchester. From a point on th, main line, near Frodsham, a branch will be taken to join the Chester and Birkenhead Railway, so as to unite Manchester in the most direct manner possible, with the docks now being formed at Bir kenhead. As Manchester, from its geographical position, is the centre of rail way communication between Scotland and the most populous dis tricts of England, so Chester, front a like cause, is the great centre of railway communication between the capitals of Ireland and of Eng land. To connect these two points by a direct and independent line of railway must, therefore, be of the utmost importance, not only in a local point of view, but to the whole commercial intercourse of the country. This line will be the most direct route, by Holyhead, to Ireland, and will be, in all respects, by far the preferable channel of inter course and transit between Ireland and the great manufactu, ing dis tricts of England. By the railways connecting Chester with Wrex ham, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester, and South Wales, this will be the nearest route front Manchester to the south western parts of England, and to the minerals of Monmouth and Glamorganshire. The communication with Bristol, Gloucester, and Exeter will be speedy and direct. On reference to the map, it will be seen that a very considerable distance will be save by this line, as coin ekl with the present circuitous routes by .Crewe and by llirke • the former being 52 miles, and the latter 46 miles, while tl roposed line Is only 31 miles, saving In the one ease 18 and in the other 12 miles, besides the serious inconvenience, loss of time, and expense of passing through Liverpool, and crossing the water at that place. It is confidently expected that this line will be the precursor of another • scheme, of no ordinary importance—namely, to render Chester an efficient port for large vessels. This subject was entertained by Sir John Rennie in 1835, and sub sequently, in the same year, by the late Mr. Chapman, who wrote an able report upon the capabilities of the river I)ee. It was again investigated, in 1837, by Sir John Rennie and Mr. George Remington, and the practicability of forming a good navigable channel for vessels of large burden, together with docks at Chester, was then fully and clearly established. The entrance channel would commence at Dawpool. which is easy of access (and infinitely preferab c, in point of access and safety, to the docks at Liverpool or Birkenhead), for vessels of large burden, during eight hours every tide, both at springs and neaps ; and the till of the lock would be sufficiently low to admit vessels drawing 20 feet water to enter at all tides. This railway, therefore, in connexion with the Froposed docks, will render to Chester and Manchester incalculable advantages. To the former it will restore the proper position natural to so important a city ; to the latter it will give another outlet, by sea, to the ma nufacturing districts, free of the heavy port charges, dues, and risks to which the produce is now subject. It has not been thought advisable to combine the two objects in one company at present, but should it be found requisite, the two may hereafter be amalga mated. Merits of no ordinary degree, therefore, may fairly be claimed for this railway, whether taken in connexion with the proposed docks, or as standing alone, combining as it does all the advantages of any other lines, with this great addition, that it will be the high road to the most convenient outport of Manchester, and will be quite inde pendent of any associations or influences that might tend to oppose the growing desire for a moans of direct and independent communi cation between Manchester and the port of Chester. The line has been carefully examined. There are no difficult earth-works to be encountered ; on the contrary it will be cheap, and of easy formation. Power is reserved to the Committee to de viate ftom the proposed line in the vicinity of Manchester, should ulterior arrangemeuts render it expedient.

GUNTER'S HONDURAS TURTLE, com prising only the prime parts of the Turtle, is _creedpre at . . _ . Honduras, from fish just caught, and will be found infinitely Ip.ttcr, cheaper, and more convenient to the consumer, than the use in this country of the live fish, after a tedious voyage, during which the majority pine and die. It is put up in 21b. tins, air-tight, and will remain fresh for any number of years, being at the same time always ready for almost instant consumption. There are ample instructions on each tin for its use, so that any moderately intelligent cook can do justice to this luxury. THE SPLENDID WOODS OF /MEAN (of which this property includes four acres), to protect the villa from the wintry winds—the Kitchen Gardens are well planned, and the supply of fruit and vegetables most abundant. Dispersedly placed, and in excellent taste, are to be seen about the grounds everything that ingenuity and art combined could efftet, In one spot is a grotto. Contiguous to it THE ORNAMENTAL WATERS, WITH THREE VESSELS IN FULL SAIL, of solid copper, and wire rigging, and a jet d'eau which Mr. Robins will not dishonour by a comparison with the "NONENTITIES AT TRAFALGAR -SQUARE." On another spot is a second grotto, which, by means of no ordi. nary ingenuity, represents a perpetual telegraph and windmill, which never cease their pleaeing vocation. It has consumed 704 feet of iron pipe to accomplish this. THE EDDYSTONE LIGHTHOUSE adorns the centre of the waters, inwhich exist myriads of gold and silver fish. In short, neither words nor painting can do it adequate justice: we know of nothing comparable with the scene, so as to give it that vivid colouring by which those who have not had ocular demonstration, may recognise its wild phenomena. And now the composer feels that he must compassionate with his readers, and arrive at a conclusion. THE DEMESNE AROUND IT IS 14 ACRES, Including the rich paddocks.

This Company is originated on data supplied by official returns, obtained from a majority of the leading cities and towns in the king dom, exhibiting an almost nominal risk in drapers' establishments, and is based upon the principle of excluding all extra hazardous risks ; but power is intended to be vested hi the Directors to accept (if they think proper) applications for general insurances, where the risks can be clearly shown not to exceed that of a general draper's es blishment. . .. . . The effect of a preliminary canvass has been to obtain large pro mises of support in different districts, both by intended insurances and subscription for shares. It is believed, also, that (rejecting all extra risks) the Directors will be in a condition to materially reduce the premiums payable for insurances. A small portion only of the capital is intended to be called for, and the proprietors arc to be entitled to interest on the same, and to one third of the clear profits; one-third being also retained to consti tute a sinking fund, and one-third distributed in bonuses amongst the assured.

Remington, Esq., C.E. The line of Railway proposed between tittoxeter and Dudley has been undertaken at the suggestion of several influential parties, as combining (without being a competing line with any railway at pre sent made) all the advantages of several projected lines, with addi tions of no ordinary value. The town of Uttoxeter, in the Dove Val ley, is itself the centre of a rich agricultural district, supplying al ready the markets of Dudley, Tipton, Walsall, Bilston, and Wednes bury, with cheese, cattle, end agricultural produce, but by a very expensive and dilatory mode of transit. All the proposed lines communicating with Manchester, London, and the Potteries, must necessarily pass to or near Uttoxeter. Already the Chur- net Valley, Derby and Stafford, Derby and Crewe, Tean, and Dove Valley, North Staffordshire, Manchester Direct Inde pendent, Leicester and Ashby lines of railway, project a station at Uttoxeter. Assuming either of these former, or some equivalent, to pass this will be the best route from Manchester, Macclesfield, the Potteries, Hull, Sheffield, and the north to' the mineral districts of South Staffordshire, and to Kidderminster, Worcester, and South Wales. By the Leicester and Ashby line, which will communicate by its branch to Uttoxeter, traffic of great part of the east of England will be available for Staffordshire and the west. Commencing at Uttoxeter, the line will be carried over favourable ground to Abbott's Bromley, thence to Rugeley, where it will fall into the Trent Valley Railway Station, by Channock Chase, along the Rising Brok Valley, to Hednesford, and thence by Walsall across the Grand Junction Railway, through Wednesbury and the mineral districts of South Staffordshire to Dudley ; there it will join all those railways that will connect the Staffordshire coal field with Worcester, Ludlow, and Porthdynllaen on the south-west, Aberystwith, Merthyr Tydvil, Swansea, Hereford, on the west and south. In tact, it will unite by the nearest route the cast and west of England. The line will fall into and cross the Trent Valley, Midlands, and Grand Junction Railway at Walsall, and from Cannock afford direct communication with Wolverhampton (where it will run into the broad gauge railway) from Leeds, and Huddersfield, and the north and cast of England. The population on the line exceeds 300,000, and the ordinary traffic arising from internal sources alone is sufficient to maintain the rail way, and afford more than ample remuneration to the shareholders. As a junction line (with the present immensely increasing public favour to railway travelling) it is scarcely possible to compute the amount of passenger traffic, but it must necessarily be very great. Since this line was registered, a company has been formed for ex tending it by a junction at Uttoxeter, to Huddersfield, Leeds, and Sheffield, by way of Ashbourn, and by this means immense mines of lead, iron, stone, and coal of Derbyshire, the products of the paint manufactories and barytes works at Ashhourne, Cromford, &c., will be opened, and with those already in work, find a ready transit to Walsall and Birmingham, Dudley, and Wolverhampton. The in crease of passengers, attracted by ready means of conveyance to the romantic country of Dovedale, and the High Peak, will be necessarily very great. The 'copper, ore, lime, and coal, abounding in the Callon and the Ribden mines, will be transmitted by this line to the manufacturing districts of Staffordshire, Warwickshire, and South Wales, and it will afford a direct communication between Leeds, Huddersfield, and Southampton, and it 'will also be the nearest route to Southampton from Manchester, via Uttoxter, by the London and Manchester Direct Independent Line,' or whatever railway should ultimately pass between Manchester and London, as forming the shortest route to the metropolis, a line which, it is now admitted on all hands, must be carried. . _ Vv This Company reserves the right to raise additional capital to com plete the line from Dudley to or near the'Droltwich station, on the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway.

Rose and Messrs. Tindal, Aylesbury Messrs.

The main line will commence from the London and Birmingham Railway, near Harrow, and passin t to the north of Uxbridge, will proceed up the Valley by Chalfont, near Amersham and Chesham to Missenden and Wendovcr, and thence to Aylesbury; from which place it will extend to Buckingham, and passing near Winslow, and approaching Brackley, will terminate by a Junction with the proposed Warwickshire and London Railway, near Banbury. In addition to the line above described, it is intended also to con struct a Railway from the central station of the London and Bir mingham Railway at Wolverton to Buckingham, and thence through Bicester to Oxford; and in connexion with the line here proposed, the Bedford, and London and Birmingham Company, intend to make a connecting line between Bedford and Wolverton. The proposed i:uckingliam and London and Birmingham Railway Company (for the construction of a line from Wolverton to Bicester) is amalgamated with this Company. Accurate surveys of the country hare been taken by Mr. Robert Stephenson, and it has been ascertained that no engineering difficulty of importance presents itself. The undertaking has already received the sanction and support of a very large proportion of the Nobility, Gentry, and Proprietors of land through or near whose property it is intended to pass. It is proposed that these lines should be made with the co-operation, and under the direction and superintendence of the London and Mirmingham Railway Company; under a lease, in perpetuity, at four per cent. per aunum on the outlay, with a conditional arrange ment as to the surplus profits.
