Carlton Chambers, Regent-street The object of this Company is to establish a railway from London to Exeter direct, through Salisbury and other considerable towns, hither to deprived of that great improvement of the age. The most impor tant feature, however, of this undertaking will be, that it will establish an uninterrupted, direct, and s.ieedy communication between the me tropolis and our largest maritime ports—Plymouth and Portsmouth, and thus form an Immediate transit to the axtreme part of the west of England. To the shipping interest, both at home and abroad, this facility will be of the utmost importance, and if war should unfortu nately arise, the advantages of such a line are evident. The Committee feel the importance of the duty imposed upon them, and rely with confidence on the success of the undertaking, possessing, as it does, the strongest claims for support, whether as a permanent and judicious investment of capital, or as a great national undertaking. It is not intended to comment on the various railway schethes partially affecting the line the Committee propose should be adopted, further than to observe, that stone of them have been based upon a sufficiently comprehensive view to afford " a direct organic communication" with the metropolis: and it is apparent that an en tire line, under the management of one Company, is far preferable to any other communication now available or projected. This line of railway is offered to the public as affording not only an independent and direct intercourse between the metropolis, Exeter, and the va rious important towns upon it, but will effect a saving of thirty miles and upwards, in the circuitous and expensive route by Bristol. The opinion of Sir Robert Peel is particularly applicable to this project—that the tendency of the improvements which are. almost daily intrcduced, was decidedly in favour of the shortest and most direct lines ; and it is deserving of remark, that when the Wilts and Somerset Railway Bill (which has lately received the royal sanction) was before Parliament, its projctors were required to pledge them selves that they not offer hereafter any impediment to a direct line to Falmouth, being precisely such an undertaking as the one now proposed, thereby proving the importance attached by Parliament to direct communications, and the London and York having obtained the consent of ihe House of Commons to their Bill, after a prolonged opposition, shows the weight attached to direct independent railways. It is proposed that this railway shall take its course between the Great Western and the South-Western, as far as Kingsclere—thoug h it will not in any way interfere " with those lines —and - is the course actually suggested by the Board of Trade in its Fourth Report, sec. 42, by which an opening was made in this very line, stating that there is nothing in the present settlement of existing railways to prevent a shorter or competing line to Exeter being brought forward. The Direct London and Exeter Company intend to form their ter minus In the most central part of London which can be obtained. It will be iu the immediate vicinity of Sloane-street and Knightsbridge. It is also intended that this Company shall join the railway projected to cross the Thames, and thus effect an immediate connexion with a central terminus at Ilungerford-bridge. From the London terminus the line will branch off to or near llammersmith, T urnham-green, Brentford, Isleworth, Hounslow, Staines, Egham, Bagshot, Ascot, Bracknell, Binfield, Wokingham, Kingsclere, Andover, and Salisbury ; Shaftesbury, Sherbourne , Yeovil, Crewkerne, Axminster, or from Salisbury to Cranbourne, Blandford, Dorchester, Bridport, Axminster, and Honiton, to Exeter. The line chosen was nearly the one adopted by the Romans ; and as they, whenever practicable, adopted the straight line, the Com mittee intend, as nearly as poslible, following their example. This road was also the old mail coach line, until the circuitous course of the Great Western, in the infancy of railway traffic, diverted the travelling from it. The line of this railway will pass through Staines, as before ob served ; and it is proposed to form a branch to Windsor, it being re presented that that mode of immediate communication with the metropolis will he most congenial to the inhabitants of that town and its vicinity. The cJommittee are, therefore, desirous of accomplish ing that objec:, and .invite the immediate and active co-operation of the landholders and inhabitants of Windsor to this part of their scheme especially. To the sporting world, also. this undertaking offers a desideratum which has long been felt; it is calculated the number of persons annually visiting Ascot and Egham Races exceeds 250,000; this line will pass in the immediate vicinity of these race-courses; and near Ascot a handscime and commodious station will be erected for the ac commodation of the public. The traffic tables which are now in course of preparation will, when completed, be published ; but from the official returns, and other sources which have come within the Committee's cognisance, a very ample interest for the capital neces sary for this undertaking is shown, and as the traffic, from the great accommodation this railway will afford to every description of pro perty in the district through which it will pass, will be greatly in creased, so also will be the financial returns. The - rejection of the Bill before Parliament of the Plymouth and Falmouth line, induces the Committee to propose an immediate ex tension of the direct line from Exeter to Falmouth. Prospectuses for this extension will be published as soon as the plans and surveys are matured, and in the allotment of shares for this part of the line pre ference will be given to the original holders of shares in the Direct London and Exeter Company, and the landowners on the Falmouth line. The entire line has been partially surveyed, and the essential bene fit arising from avoiding the elbow of Bristol been ascertained beyond a doubt. The plans, sections, and books of reference will be ready within the time prescribed by the Standing Orders of Parliament, and application will be made for a Bill to incorporate the Company early in the next session. The usual power will be taken by the Act to allow interest at 41. per cent. per annum, after passing the Act, on the amount of the subscriptions paid up, and that no subscriber shall be answerable for snore than the amount of his deposit until the Act be obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his sub scription. In case Parliament should not sanction the present undertaking, which every active means will be taken to secure, the money de posited, deducting the necessary expenses attending the projection, will be returned to the shareholders. The Committee have been in communication with many influential landowners on the line, from whom promises of support have been obtained, and earnestly invite the co-operation and assistance of all parties holding property upon it, desirous of furthering the object in view, whose names, it is requested, may be communicated to the Committee or to the solicitor to the Company forthwith. Prospectuses, wills forms of applications for shares, may be had at the offices of the company as above, and of the following stock and sharebrokers—viz : Messrs.

In congratulating the Shareholders ou the issue of the late contest Einar Ch e ar s' leS Stevens, in Parliament, the Committee of Management be to announce that active measures are be!ng adopted to forward the surveys and plans, and prepare for the ensuing session. The success of the Oxfbrd and Rugby Railway has confirmed the Directors in the view they enter tained when they first brought to the notice of the public the merits of a line direct from Birmingham to Oxford, and leaves little min tO doubt that Parliament will grant this Important continuation, thus co nnecting the whole n orth of the kingdom and Birmingham with the south-western districts. It is intended to make the most convenient stations for the various towns on the line that circumstances will admit, connecting the line at Birmingham with that of the Grand Junction Company. By this means an uninterrupted transit will be effected from Birmingham through Oxford to every part of the South and to London. - Looking to the very peculiar position of this line, the cheapness of its construction, and the great traffic that must inevitably flow to it from its connecting and central situation, the Provisional Directors have every confidence that the undertaking will be one of more than Ordinary profit to the proprietors.

LOCAL AGENT. Chester—John Walker, Esq. The promoters of this Railway, encouraged by the favourable sup port which has been given to the project, and in compliance with then various recommendations they have received, ha7e 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 couflicting 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 the 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, from 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 ham. 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 eourseind transit between Ireland and the great manufacturing 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 from Manchester to the south-western parts of England, and to the mineral districts of Monmouth and Glamorgatishire. 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 saved by this line, as compared with the present circuitous routes by Crewe and by Birkenhead; the former being 52 miles, and the latter 46 miles, while the proposed line is only 34 miles, saving in the one case 18 miles, 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 Dee. 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'e, 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 call 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 proposed 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 from the proposed line in the vicinity of Manchester, should ulterior arrangements render it expedient.

Esq. Since the formation of the Company for making this railway, and the allotment of the Shares for that part of the line between Chelms ford and Bury, the practicability, paramount importance, and Stine- Tior advantages of its plan save been so unequivocally recognised by the Board of Trade, and by the Committee of the House of Commons for the railways of Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk, that the Provisional Committee have determined to now, at once, adopt the extension of their line, originally projected, from Bury to join the Norwich and Brandon line at Thetford; thereby to complete the shortest and best communication between London and Norwich, in the direction of the old road, through all the chief central towns of Essex and Suffolk, and at the same time to open a very direct communication with the great trunk lines of the north and west. For these important objects, to be secured by an extension of only 12 miles, to connect Bury St. Edmund's and Thetford, the Provisional Committee propose to increase the capital 250,0001., by the issue of 10,000 additional shares ; and, for full particulars of the entire plan, refer to their original prospectus. The Chelmsford and Bury line not having been projected in time to bring it before Psrliamentin the present session in a substantive form, it has been but imperfectly, and merely incidentally, in opposing other lines, that its merits could be at all bro u g ht under the notice of the Board ' of Trade or of the Committee of the House ; but the strong impression made, notwithstanding, in its favour, is obviously appa rent, both in the reports of the one and in the decisions of the other. The Board of Trade, in stating the considerations upon which it ad vise&the rejection of the Norwich Direct line, reported (March 4th, 1845) that " It is necessary to advert to a railway called tile Chelms ford and Bury Railway, projected, but not brought before Parliament, the plan, and section, and traffic tables of which have been submitted to the Board of Trade. This railway appears to us to accommodate a more populous district than that intended to be traversed by the London and Norwich Direct Railway. Its section shows that it may be done at a moderate cost ;" (while) " there is a strong local feeling in its fay; ur, evinced by the memorials which have been re ceived by the Board of Trade from the inhabitants of Braintree, Halstead, Sudbury, and other places between Chelmsford and Bury." The Committee of the House of Commons have since not only rejected the Norwich Direct and Bury and Cambridge lines, but the Chairman (Lord Sandon), previous to giving a decision against the Norwich Direct, took occasion to observe that "the Committee was decidedly in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury scheme." To these public testimonials in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury line, the Provisional Committee have the satisfaction of aiding, that by a special arrangement with the solicitor of the Eastern Counties Railway, they are assured of the concurrence and good offices of that important Company in the formation of their line. In allotting their original Shares, the Provisional Committee ne cessarily rejected numerous applications, of which it may be pre sumed that a considerable number were from parties as highly re spectable as any of those to whom Shares could then be given; and in the distribution of the additional Shares a reasonable preference will be given to original applicants, as well as to original Share holders.

The Directors are extremely unwilling to deprive of the opportu nity of embarking in the undertaking any parties having local or other claims to consideration, but the pressure for Shares has been so overwhelming that to keep the iists open would only occasion extended disappointment. They, therefore, give notice that no applications for shares can be received after Saturday next, and that letters for shares posted subsequently Must be rejected. JAMES WALKINSHAW, Deputy Chairman.
