The Previsional Committee of the North Loudon Junctien Rail way Company have great satisfaction in informing their subscribers that negotiations are now pending between the Provisional Commit tee of this Company and the Directors of the Railways north of the Thames of such a character as to assure them that the City terminus of this Company will form the Grand Terminus of all the City trails north of London. To effect this important object, an area of 10 acres of ground (the southern boundary of which is within 500 yards of the Bank of England) has been most carefully surveyed and• valued, and the re port of the architect and engineer 11 of so favourable a character as to have induced the Provisional Committee to determine on purchasing the entire site, and it has, therefore, been resolved by them to in crease the capital of this Company to 1,300,0001. The Provisional Committee consider it of paramount importance to secure within the limits of their City terminus, the amplest and most complete accommodation for the traffic of each of the railway companies who may co-operate with them, an object which will be, effected by opening the very extensive and valuable space of ground alluded to, within the centre of the City of London. In conjunction with this enlarged plan, it is intended to embrace that of a branch line to the present station of the Eastern Counties Railway in Shorediteh, which will effect an entire junction between the eastern and western parts of the metropolis ; and at the same time afford a direct communication between the whole of the rail, ways, which reach London tcthe north of the Thames, and give full development to each of their schemes by creating for them a common centre within the heart of the metropolis. _ _ _ W 11•••••••••••• •••••••....• Independently, therefore, of the almost incalculable local traffic which the position of their City terminus will ensure to this Com= ;any, will he added that of those companies also who will eventually co-opera. e with the North London Junction Railway Company, and the perfection of a project of no ordinary magnitude and importance will be realised throughout the whole of this short but very valuable line of railway. .1 lithographic sketch now publishing will accurately define the entire district throrgh which this Company proposes to run this line; by this means the most casual observer will be enabled to ascertain that the environs of London, north of the Thames, will be placed bit immediate commutication with the City ; while the dense popu lation of the City will enjoy a fact ity of connexion with its suburban localities, necessarily affording it the "greatest accommodation. With such important local resources, therefore, together with the vast traffic on which the shareholders of this Company have a right to rely for profit, a large amount of revenue may be fairly and justly anticipated, fully commensurate with the outlay of the proposed capital. That revenas will be derived thus : The daily passenger traffic on the Great Western amounts to 3,345, one-half of which reaches the City. The London and Bir mingham amounts to 4,322 daily, two-thiri.s of which reach the City. The Eastern Counties amounts to 2,409 persons daily, half of whom pass to the West-end of London. The omnibus traffic dally is 30,894 passengers, two-thirds of which may be given to the City. Passeng3rs from the suburban districts reaching the City, new un neanumodated by any railway, are estimated at 4,000 daily. and Rugby Direct Railway Andrew Jukes Worthington, Esq., Leek Edward Woolmer, Esq., Mayor of Exeter (With power to add to their number). • From these sources the following products are derived : rer Passengers front the Great Western and Birmingham Rail way, at 6d• each.. • . . • . • • • ......... ...... .......

This Company is formed for making a railway from Liverpool to Derby, and will, in conjunction with the Manchester and Rugby Direct, and London and Birmingham R a i l w ay s, form the nearest route from Liverpool to London. I t will commence at Liverpool, and proceed along the Liverpool and Manchester R ailway to within a short distance of the Whiston I nclined Plane, and th e nce branch off, h in a south-easterly directio n, through Warrin g t on , Knutsford, and I C T o o n y g ) l , e a to o n d t f o r mLne e tenc e through Ashbourne to Derby. The whole Leek (there joining the Manchester and Ru g by Rail length of the proposed lino will be about sixty-six miles. it will be ortan n ermediate manufacturing districts. seen by reference to the map that this important line of railway will form the shortest route fronalverpool to London, and effect a direct chain of communication between Liverpool and Derby, and will thence, by means of the Midlands and other railways, open an unin ainindpotirtarfeaturein this railway is that it forms the unin terrupted route to the more eastern counties, and afford a complete midland communication between the eastern and western parts of g m d oo most m t the Th k e in shortest road from Liverpool to London. The distance by it, with the Manchester and Rugby, and London and Birmingham, will be only 158 miles, whereas by the present route it is 210 miles, and by the Trent Valley Railway 2001/2 miles ; effecting a sav i ng of 22 miles is one instance, and 1234 miles in the other. And as regards Liverpool and Derby, the whole distance between Liverpool and Derby will be b reduced by this line to about 74 miles, thus decreasing the distance y any present existing railway, at least 4i miles; an advent sge whic h carries in itself the conviction of the necessity there is for the proposed railway , in order to connect more immediately two such importantfor other owns, especially when these towns are but the foci, as it were, t railways from still more distant localities, as before adverted, o. h t The distance also from 3 e i ne es er to Leek (where the proposed railway will unite with the 3 anclester and Rugby Direct Railway) will be about 30 miles, and frofnotLeek to Derby about 26% miles, making the whole distance tfiemdillanchester to Derby only 56% miles ; and thus diminishing ant . stance by any present communi cation between those imeorta andiewns Jay about 28 miles, an object most desirable to be attained, of itself quite sufficient to recom mend a line of railway embracing such beneficial results. But great as these results most certainly will be, they are far out weighed by the very important con sideration that, in conjunction with the Manchester and Rugby Direct Railway, it w ill a l so b e the most direct route from Liverpool to London. The distance from Liverpool to Leek (the propo se d po i n t o f junc tion with the Manchester alßugby Direct Rail way ) i s 4 714 m il ts; from Leek to Rugby. accordiiiur Railway, to the line as proposed by the Man chester and Rugby Direct .. 68 miles, a n d f rom R ug by to London 83 miles; th us making see whole distance from Liverpool to London 188 1 / a miles, instead of 210, by the present route. With regard to the traffic and other details connected with the working of the line , i t seems only necessary to revert to the great importance of the towns proposed to be brought into communication with each other, in order to convince the minds of all that the source of revenue thus derived willbe immense.

One of i ts o bj ec t s i s t h e convers i o n 0 . the Chesterfield straight line, and has been formed by an union vrti,: ' that canal nit° a railway ( as f ar as it ma y b e available), so ES to give b . .. most complete system of railway accommodation from Great Grimsb, Wainfleet, Ilorn eas tl e , Louth, Lincoln, Gainsborough, Retford, and Worksop, to Sheffield, Rotherham, Chesterfield, Bakewell , Bu xton, Stockport, Manchester, Liverpool, and Birkenhead ; also the mo s t direct communication from east to west, withlitacciesfield , Cong leton, Crewe, Chester, Bangor, and Ireland; as well as nearly direct access to the Staff or d s hi re Potteries and Iron districts of North Staffordshire; also to Shrew s b ury an d N or th a nd South Wales. Southward, it will give a good com mun i ca tion to Derby, Birmingham, Droitwicn, Chel tenham, Gloucester, Bristol, and Southampton. This line will commence at Lincoln, and go nearly direct to East Retford, Workso and Chesterfield, where it it will join the Mid land Railway, the p, Chesterfield and Sheffield Railway, and also the Proposed North Derbyshire lines, which proceed direct to Manchester and Liverpool, and North Staffordshire. In length it will be about 56 miles. A section of the line will commence at Gainsborough, and join the main line at East Retford : a branch will be made from Worksop to join the Midland near Beighton, so as to give railway accommoda tion to Rotherham and the nortern districts. This branch will take the course of the Chesterfield Canal, which it is proposed to use in its construction. A glance at the map will at once show the importance of this national undertaking. In connexion with other lines it will form the most direct and valuable trunk line from east to west than has yet been . offeted for "public sunport ; it will join together nearly by a direct route the most important manufactur:ng towns of Lancashire and North Staffordshire, with the rich corn-growing districts of Lin coln and Nottinghamshire, and will give to the rising ports of Great Grimsby and Wainfieet a most perfect access from nearly'all the great manufacturing districts of the west. The project, comprehensive and integral in itself, interferes with no vested interests, and will form a considerable auxiliary and feeder to the various lines with which it connects itself. It will offer a great advantage to the public from its union with the Chesterfield Canal, for that portion of the canal, not used for the railway, will give ex tensive local accommodation, by affording many more points of con tact with the consumer. It is thought unnecessary to present any detailed estimate of traffic, as it must be obvious from the above outline of the objects to be accomplished, and the rich, populous, and productive agricul tural and manufacturing districts to be traversed and connected, and the extent of inexhaustible coal-fields and lime and stone quarries in the immediate neighbourhood of the line, that the project presents is most advantageous investment for capital, and will afford an ample remuneration to the shareholders ; In proof of which reference may be made to the printed yearly accounts of the Chesterfield Canal Company, which for an average of 10 years, commencing in 1834, show a dividend of above 91. per cent. per annum. Independently, however, of the local traffic, the through traffic between the ports on the east coast, and the various districts to the west, and the exports and imports which will be conveyed, cannot fail to be most productive, and to give the shareholders a good return for the outlay of their capital. To the inhabitants of the various towns and districts which this line traverses a complete system of railway accommodation will be given ; and the bare mention of the project has called forth a spon taneous offer of support from almost every direction. A general survey of the line has already been made, and instruc tions have been given for the nece ssar y g round surveys, with a view of obtaining an Act in the ensu in g session of Parliament, and such surveys are in so forward a state a s to p reclude the possibility of dis appointment. Power will be given in the 13111 to allow interest at 4 per cent, per annum, Imm the time of payment until the opening of the line, and no liability will be incurred by any subscriber beyond the amount of subscription. In the allotment of shares the Committee will give a preference to parties locally interested, and in all cases satisfactory reference will be required to a banker or to some person of known respectability. Applications for prospectuses and shares may be made to the soli citors and to the secretary. GREAT WESTERN, SOUTHERN, AND EASTERN COUNTIES, OR IPSWICII AND SOUTH AN I'TON RAILWAY.

It 'trill afford the most easy access through the medium of the Great Western Railway to the inhabitants of Reading, Maidenhead, Windsor, Staines, Kingston, Epsom, and the principal intermediate towns, to Dover, Brighton, Hastings, and the other watering-places on the coast of Kent and Sussex. Ireland, Wales, Liverpool, Birmingham, Bristol, and the manu facturing districts in the West of England will thus obtain a more direct, less tedious and expensive communication with the Continent than by the way of London. The length of line as proposed will be twenty-seven miles ; and, after a careful examination, no engineering difficulty presents itself, as it runs for more than half the distance on a level, and traverses a country that must be greatly benefited by this project. The Company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentary plans and - sections in ample time for complying with the standing orders, and enabling them to apply for an Act in the ensuing Session. • The shortness of the line, and the q uantity of cantle traffic that the line win command, leaves no en ge d r ou n b ll t d of m e a r ample return for the investmen t of cap l i a ta tt l s may be made, pass l; and forms i Applications for prospectuses and of applications for shares had at t Collingridge, solicitors , 5, Basinglittsotnreiceets offlttfheessrso.cl ; oLal 'ot A tc g r o a lt n s d ; and of the following gentlemen :2,-- iLio‘uedno,no-01113e t it . % s r .

COOPER, Esq., seconded by Mr. Watataart, and unanimously resolved 1. That it is highly desirable that - railway communication be established between Hounslow and London, and that it be as direct as the nature of the country will permit, and follow as closely as possible the course of the old coach thoroughfare. Proposed by Major JELF SHARP, seconded by B. J. ARMSTRONG, Esq., and unanitnously resolved 2. That having heard and considered. a statement of the course which the projected line of Mr. Page will take, this meeting is of opinion that such line is most highly calculated to promote the interests of this town and neighbourhood, and presents a prospect of far greater advantage than any line crossing the river, and not pro ceeding directly to the centre of the metropolis: • Proposed by JAS. MONTGOMERY, Esq. ; seconded by Mr. Km and unanimously resolved 3. That the line projected by Mr. PAge is particularly entitled to the support of the inhabitants of this town and neighbourhood for the following amongst other reasons :- 1. That it is the line originally proposed by the inhabitants of this district. 2. That it fellows the direct course of the ancient thoroughfare from Hounslow to London, without crossing the River Thames. 3. That means having been taken for extending the original ter minus from 31illbank to the immediate vicinity of Charing-cross, it presents a more convenient access to the metropolis than any other line. That this meeting, therefore, pledge themselves to give every assist ance in promoting the success of this line.

It commences at the Farnborough station of the South-Western Rail way, crossinv the Great Western line between Slough and Maiden head, and terminates on the Oxford and Rugby line of railway at Ileyford, beyond Oxford, on the route to Birmingham, accommo dating in its course. Bracknell, Sunning-hill,Bagshot, Ascot, Windsor, Great Marlow, High Wycombe, Princes Risborough, Thame, Biccster, and many other places at present without railway com munication. It will form the most direct rote from London to Banbury, War wick, and Birmingham, and by the Grand Junction Railway to Man chester, Liverpool, Lancaster, and Carlisle,. and by the Caledonia' Railway to Glasgow and Edinburgh ; also from Crewe to Chester, Birkenhead, and Holyhead, thus opening the most direct coMmUnida- - tion with Dublin. It will also by the branch to Oxforti, -- in connexion with the Cheltenham and Oxford line, form the most direct route to South Wales, Waterford, and the south of Ireland, as well as by the Ox ford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton line to Worcester, and conse quently to all the central portion of Wales, thus forming the shortest route to all Wales and Ireland. _ The length of this line will not exceed 64 miles, and it willsaVe an average distance of 14 miles to each of the before-mentioned places, as compared with the route now traversed by the Great Western Railway. It is satisfactory to state that there are no engineering difficulties, and that the land is the least valuable of any la the coun ties through which this line is intended to pass, avoiding, as it does, parks and ornamental property. To the advantages offered to the above places, by saving about fourteen miles In the transits to London, must be added that of con necting them with the South-Western and the Reading and Reigate lines, affording passengers an opportunity of proceeding to South ampton, Portsmouth, Isle of Wight, Dover, Brighten, and all adja cent places, without the necessity of passing through the metropolis, thereby saving much time and iaconvenience. It will be seen from the foregoing facts that the formation of Ihis line will afford very great advantages to nearly all parts of England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, as it will materially facilitate the de livery of their many marketable products by opening another and more direct 'lliac to London. It is not, therefor*, too much to ex pect that, kidependently of a great local traffic, there will be also an immense, through traffic brought on this line, which must pay at least lb per cent. on the capital required. This is manifest, as the construction of the line will not cost 20,0001. per mile, while the London and Birmingham Railway cost 53,0001. per mile, upon which entomous outlay it continues to pay 15 per cent. Shanholders in the Grand Junction, Great Western, lloutb Western, Oxford and Rugby, Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhamp ton, and Birmingham and Oxford Junction Railways will have a pre ference in the allotment of shares after parties locally interested. The deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the share holders beyond the deposit now paid, until the Act of Parliament shall be obtained ; and power will be taken in the Act to allow four per cent. interest on all calls until the line be completed, which, from the nature of the ground to be gone over, is not expected to exceed two years. The Committee have decided, in compliance with the suggestions of landowners of great influence, to form branches from the Thame station on the proposed main line to Oxford and Aylesbury, thereby establishing a direct communication between those importmit places.
