The pert of Boston affords the readiest outlet for exports front the manufacturing districts to the north of Europe, and the importance of direct communication from the midland counties to a place so ad vantageously situate cannot be over-estimated. Leicester has, or shortly will have, direct communication with Birmingham, and all the other important towns in the midland district. The Midland Railway Company is extending the communication to Melton Mowbray, by means of its branch from Syston to Peter. borough, which passes through that place. There is also a complete line a railway about to be established from Nottingham, through Grantham and Folkingham, to Boston, as well as to Spalding, Wis. beach, Lynn, Yarmouth, and other important towns in the eastern counties. The Leicester, Melton Mowbray, and Boston Direct Union Rail way, by forming a line from Melton Mowbray to Folkingham, will supply tl►e only link wanting to complete a direct through communi cation from Birmingham, Warwick, Worces•er, Coventry, and the manufacturing districts generally, to Boston, as well as by weans of existing and projected railways from Wales and the Bristol Charnel, to that seaport. -- The length of the proposed line will not exceed twenty-six miles : and as it will pass through a country very favourable for engineer ing purposes, the expense of construction will, it is expected; be less titan the usual average. The admirable position of this railway can not fail, it is confidently expected, to command a large return, both in passengers and in goods traffic. 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 there to apply for their Act in the ensuing session.

Cragg and Jeyes, 22, Bedford-row, This railway will connect the east and west coasts, and form direct route from the ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood-on-Wyre, and Lancaster, to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonsdaie, Sedberga, and Kirkby Stephen, and thence by the most practicable lino to New castle. It will run nearly parallel with the old coach road, which has hitherto been the principal passenger rout* from Lancaster to Newcastle. It will readily be conceded that great benefits will flow from a direct railway communication between the coal-fields and mining districts if Durham and Northumberland, and the important towns and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, and Lancaster. The entire length of the line is rich in mineral productions—coal, slate, limestone, marble, and other elements of a great local traffic abound, and cannot fail I. make this one of the most remunerative projects of the day. A considerable saving of distance between the important towns on the ter►ssini is effected over any existing er pro jected scheme. _ _ It will be reserved to the Committee of Management to make such alterations in the line, or the annunt of capital required, or other wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the interests of the Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act to the opening of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only.

SOLICITOR—SamueI Shepherd, Esq. Northallerton. By this line of railway it is intended to connect the free port of Stockton with the manufacturing districts of the West Riding of Yorkshire and the whole of Lancashire. This important object will be attained at a trifling outlay of capital, and ensure an amply remunerative traffic. The line will be constructed from or near Stockton-on-Tees, to or near to Northallerton, a distance of only eighteen miles, where it will form a junction with the Great North of England Railway, which will be traversed to Thirsk ; and from that place the communication with Leeds and the other important manufacturing towns will be completed by a railway already sanctioned by Parliament. It will be seen, therefore, that the communication by railway be tween the free port of the Tees and the town of Leeds will be com pleted by the formation of " The Stockton, Northallerton, and Leeds Railway." The advantages of this undertaking are too numerous to specify in an advertisement; but merchants at all acquainted with the immense export and import trade of the West Riding and of Lancashire, will at once perceive how important it is to open to that trade a port which, whilst it is as advantageous as any other in point of distance, possesses facilities and immunities which none other can offer. Front the favourable locality of the port of Stockton, there is no doubt that, with the additional facilities for the importation and transit of merchandise which this railway will afford, the port will occupy a leading position amongst those on the Eastern coast of England. The project has received very extensive local support; and almost every landowner, through whose property the line is intended to pass, has already signified his assent to the measure. The line of the country has been surveyed by an engineer of talent and experience, and, from his report, the work will be finished for 14,0001. a mile ; and there is no engineering difficulty of any descrip tion to encounter. Applications for Shares, in the subjoined form, may be forwarded to Messrs. Wilson and Faber, solicitors, Stockton; or to Samuel Shepherd, Esq., solicitor, Northallerton ; up to -and including Satur day, the Ist day ofNovember next, on which day the list will finally close, and the allotment be immediately proceeded with.

The object of this undertaking is to open a direct line of railway to connect the Northern, Eastern, and South Essex Railways, by means of a steam-ferry from Tilbury Fort to Gravesend, with Tun bridge Wells, Lewes, and Brighton. It is contemplated to proceed from the Eastern Counties Railway at or near Marlow station to Tilbury, crossing the river by a steam floating-bridge to Gravesend, passing by Cobham, Snodiand, Mail ing, and lladlow, to Tunbridge, thence by the South-Eastern Railway to Tunbridge Wells, passing Uckfleld to Lewes, and thence joining the Brighton, Lewes, and Hastings Railway to Brighton. An inspection of the map will clearly show the great importance of this railway, whether considered in a local or national point of view, fotming, as it will, a most useful chain of local communication for the fertile and populous tracts through which it passes. It will bring the Northern and Eastern Counties, the mouth of the Thames, and North Kent, into direct communication, by way of Brighton, with Dieppe and Havre, and thus form, in sonjunction ith the railways now in progress on the Continent, the shortest possible route to Paris and the Mediterranean. By this railway the, large population of the north-eastern coun ties, numbering nearly two millions, will have a direct and easy com munication with tke whole of the populous and important counties of Kent and Sussex, without going round to London, and thereby avoiding the inconvenience arising front the unconnected lines north and south of the metropolis. The utility of this line to the naval and military service, both in times of peace and war, for the convey nice of troops and stores, is evident. With the existing railways and those now in progress in Kent and Sussex, a most complete system of local connnunication will be effected; and as such, the project has been received with the most distinguished approbation and pledges of support from the principal proprietors airing the hue, and the corporation of Gravesend have promised their entire sanction to, and will cordially support It. The ground has been carefully surveyed, and found to present no difficulties to the formation of a good working line. The existing local traffic has been ascertained to he amply suffi cient to fulfil the requirements of the undertaking; but a large ac cession of valuable traffic cannot fail to be the result of the increased accommodation thus afforded to the public, and rendering the under taking one of the most important as well as productive lines of rail way in that part of the country. The Committee reserve power to themselves to form branches front Snodland to Chatham and Maidstone. The liability of the Shareholders ;;;11 be restricted by Act of Par liament to the amount of their subscriptions, and power will be ap plied for in the Bill to allow interest at tour per cent. per annum on all calls, from the passing of the Act until the opening of the line.

Commencing at the Spalding station of the Norwich, Dereham, Lynn, and Holbeack Railways, the line will proceed by Bourn. Witham, Castle Bytham, South \Python), and Wyinondham, to a point on the Syston and Peterborough line of railway near Melton- Mowbray, thus forming, by the Syston and Peterborough and Mid land Counties Railway, an almost direct route to Leicester, and thence to Coventry and Birmingham by the proposed Coventry. Nuneaton, Leicester, and Birmingham Railway. The projected line will form the most direct communication be tween the eastern and midland districts of the kingdom, and will, by means of the pro posed lines across the county of Leicester, v i a Bur ton-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, N or f o lk , It will form, with other projected railways, au almost direct li n e any across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwich, 01 th e eas t, t o t B lt h a r r re o ' t e n r d line No r c t o f h r N allawly Males, nearer to each other by many m il es Aberystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west. The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There is notuunel ling, cutting, or embanking of any importance necessary; the line from Bourn to Studding, a distance of about twelve miles, is very level, and may be constructed at a small cost. It will secure the advantages of railway communication to a tract of country at present destitute of this accommodation, besides open ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of the means of transit. The central midland districts have felt greatly the want of direct communication with the coast; and this line will at once supply the deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire. It will afford a transit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei cestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon supply from the north at high prices: it will also secure the advan tages of an unlimited supply of lime from the Leicestershire works, to the agricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only supplied at very high rates; mad, in return traffic, the midland dis tricts will Main the advantage a direct transit for the stock and agricultural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk. counties, and Several proposed lines of railway converge at Spalding, which is e t l o i e e c a t r e e d s nearest tiett Riveron t e w er n atenrdnc withas tthfoorcLll German an midlan dOcea..

Brook and Freeman The object of this undertaking is to form a continuous line of rail way from Leeds to Liverpool, by extending tile lines already made, or sanctioned by Parliament, from their respective termini at Hud dersfield, in Yorkshire, and Bury, for which extension a line of rail way only 25 miles in length is requisite. The proposed line will com mence at the Huddersfield station, between which place and Leeds. Parliamcet has already sanctioned the formation of railways, and from Huddersfield the proposed line wlll proceed by way of Hillhouse' Birchencliffe, and Lindley, and thence along the valley between Stabilancland Greetland, through Bark'sland, the Tale of ftipponden, and by Rochdale to Bury, in Lancashire, where it will join the ter minus of the Liverpool and Bury line of railway. In addition to completing a direct communication from Liverpool to Leeds, Mull, and Goole, by the shortest practicable route, and by a much smaller outlay of capital, than by any other proposed line, it will provide for a large and important manufacturing population, hitherto without the advantage of railway accommodation, ax outlet to the south by means of the Huddersfield and Sheffield Junction Railway, and to Manchester and to North and South Lancashire by the railways above mentioned, and by the Leeds and Manchester Railway, by a proposed junction therewith at Rochdale. This line, when completed, will, ii addition to the advantages which it presents as a through line, pass through a succession of val leys thickly studded with mills and manufactories, consuming a large quantity of raw materials and coal, all of which are brought from a distance, and transmitting to other districts the produce of their industry, for which purposes a line of railway has become ab solutely necessary, and there can be no doubt that au ample return will be realised for the outlay of capital required. The distance between Huddersfield and Rochdale by the present line of railway is thirty miles, which by the proposed railway will be reduced to seventeen miles. The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the right of enter ing into any arrangements with existing railway companies that may appear desirable. And power will be taken by the Act of Parliament to allow Interest to the shareholders at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum on the amounts paid on their shares from the respective times of payment to tke times of opening the railway. Applications for shares may be addressed, in the subjoined form, to any of the undermentioned Sharebrokers, viz.—Messrs. Hill, Fawcett and Hill, Threadneedle-street, London; Mr. David Kinnear, Edin burgh ; Messrs. W. Moore and Co., Messrs. J. Gatliff and Co., Messrs.
