SHO OTING.—The Heather-coloured JACKET 1...3 of Llama Wool retains the principles of Shape given in Nicoll's Registered Paletot. There are many gentlemen who have no liking for field sports, yet would much incline to the Registered Jacket, it not confining the chest and giving a general sense of freedom ; no slight recommendation for the library or the early morning walk in the country; but the Registered Jacket, for the purpose designed, viz., shooting, is truly good. Tho Heather recommended, but many patterns may be seen at most of the agents in the principal country towns, or at the spacious Warehouses, 114, Regent-street, London. H. J. aud D.

Reference to the map of England will at once suggest the impor tance of this project, which will connect the eastern and western coasts at their nearest points of opposite approximation, and save a most circuitous and dangerous coasting voyage of many days or even weeks' duration. Indeed, so obvious are the advantages, and so vast DIRECTOIIB IN LONDON. William James Chaplin, Esq., Chairman of the South-WestQrn Railway. Henry John Enthoven, Esq. Matthew Tjzielli, Esq., Director of the South-Western itailway Company. Gregory Seale Walters, Esq. the anticipated traffic, that a project was formerly entertained of forming a ship canal across the kingdom in the course now con templated. This railway will connect, by the shortest route, the following im portant towns, viz.:— Boston, Ely, Bedford Lynn, Cambridge, and Yarmouth, Huntingdon, Northampten, Norwich, Peterborough, with Tenbuty, Evesham, Worcester, &c. ; and with Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, Exeter, Plymouth, Weymouth, &c., also, with Hereford, Swansea, Milford Haven, Fishguard, and the whole of the south of Ireland ; and will also connect Coventry, War wick, and S.ratford-on-Avon, with the whole of the before-mentioned places, thereby in effect accommodating a population of several millions. . ...... It is obvious that with these advantages the traffic must neces sarily at once be unusually large, and susceptible of great fltrther increase. A considerable quantity of barley and other corn is an nually shipped from the port of Lynn to the west of England and Gloucester, which would hereafter be transported by the present line, affording great advantages to the farmer by enabling him to avail himself promptly of the most favourable market, the importance of which is noticed by the Board of Trade in one of their recent re ports. The manufactures of Norwich would also secure a new and profitable outlet, both for home and foreign consumption, by the reaay communication afforded with the west of England and Bristol. Between Northampton and Banbury a largo traffic already exists, and amongst other great and obvious sources of profit and local benefit, may be classed the opening of a new and extensive field for the consumption of coal and iron, brought from the Leicester and Swannington Railway by the South Midland Railway, and the deve lopment of the resources of the Warwickshire district by the junction effected with the Moreton-in-the-Marsh Railway, thus bringing the Leicestershire and Staffordshire coal into competition in the same markets. The line presents no engineering difEculties. The landholders generally are considered favourable to the project, and the promoters have every reason to calculate upon a most highly remunerative re turn on the outlay. One-third of the shares will be reserved for the shareholders in the South Midland Railway Company.

This opposition was completely successful, and the Bill thrown out ; and the Directors of the Leices ter and Birmingham, observing that other parties are now taking up their project between Nuneaton and Coventry, give notice that it is their full inteation to carry out their Direct " Nuneaton, Bedworth, and Coventry Branch," in connexion with their Leicester and Bir mingham line, affording the best and most beneficial mute for pas senger and mineral traffic.

The Derby and Derbyshire Banking Company Leek—Messrs. Fowler and (]aunts Macclesfield—Messrs. Brocklehurst and Co. SECRETARY (pro tern.) —Joseph Richardson, Esq., Burton-upon-Trent PROSPECTUS. The main line of this important undertaking will commence at the abrupt termination of the Macclesfield branch of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and proceed thence in an almost direct line to a point on the Trent Valley Railway near to Atherstone, and about fifteen miles north-west of Rugby. It will therefore embrace in its course the towns of Leek, Cheadle, Teen, Uttoxeter, Tutbury, and Burton-upon-Trent, the coal-fields and Potteries of Swadlincote and Gresley, and the baths and coal fields of Moira, the whole of which wealthy and important tract of country (with the exception of the town of Burton) is wholly destitute of railway accommodation. From Tean it is intended to construct a branch through the Staf fordshire Potteries by way of Longton, Lane End, Stoke-upon-Trent, and Newcastle-under-Lyne, to Crewe and Nantwich, uniting at Crewe with the numerous railways centering there, and joining at Nantwich the railway about to be formed by the conversion of the Ellesmere and Chester, and Birmingham and Liverpool Junction Canals. It is also intended to construct a branch from the main line, at or near Tutbury to Derby. Such is the project, comprising the best parts of the old and well known " Manchester South Union" Scheme, which, in the year 1836, elicited from a Committee of the House of Commons the most un qualified expressions of approval, and which an inspection of the map of the country will show to be highly desirable, indeed almost indis pensable for the public interest. It will open a shorter communication from Manchester, Stockport, and Macclesfield, to London (by Rugby), and from Derby (and the towns northward) to London, than any other line now before the public. It will unite Manchester with Derby, Nottingham, Leicester, and the whole of the Midland and Eastern Counties. It will afford to Nottingham, Leicester, Derby, and Burton-upon- Trent the most direct communication with the Staffordshire Potteries, Crewe, Chester, Runcorn, Liverpool, and the new Docks at Birken head, as well as with North Wales and Ireland. By its means the towns of Leak, Cheadle, Teen, Uttoxeter, Tut bury, and the surrounding country, will receive, for the first time, the benefits of railway communication, and the rich and extensive coal fields of Biddulph, Poynton, Adlington, Cheadle, Gresley, Gwadlln cote, and Moira, will be opened to the whole kingdom. The traffic must necessarily be Immense, and the returns highly remunerative. Thus the Committee are enabled to bring forward a legitimate and independent undertaking, having due regard to a profitable invest ment of capital, as well as to the interest and accommodation of the public. The Committee desire to add, that in presenting, in its present shape, their complete and comprehensive scheme independently of any other Railway not actually formed, or now under the consideration of Parliament, they are not influenced by a wish to supplant other parties who may have a legitimate claim to a portion of the ground they propose to occupy, but simply by a desire to form a shorter com munication between the great towns of Lancashire, Cheshire, and Staffordshire, and the Metropolis and the Midland and Eastern Coun ties, and to secure to a great district yet unopened, that railway accom modation which its wealth and importance demand, whatever may be the fate of other projects which may have in view the partial or im perfect attainment of somewhat similar objects. Powers will be taken in the Act to allow interest at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum on all deposits and calls until the opening of the Line. Applications for Shares may be addressed to the Solicitors ; or to the following Sharebrokers, viz. :—Messrs. Tucker, TS aruett, and Co., Messrs. Barry and Ce., or Mr. D. B. Major, London; Messrs.

THE ITALIAN and AUSTRIAN RAILWAY COMPANY. The Directors have the satisfaction to inform the Proprietors that they have saccee led In obtaining from His Royal Highness the grand Duke of Tuscany, In preference to twenty-two competitors, a grant foa sixty years, of a railway from Florence to Pestoja, on terms highly advantageous to the Company. This l ine presents no engineering difficulty, and passes through a district densel y populated, and rich in mineral and agricultural productiene, and will be connected with the railway already in operation between Leghorn and Pisa, by means of the line now forming from Pisa to Florence. The cap i tal will consist of 8,000,000 of Tuscan livres, equal to about 265,000/ . sterling, one third of which has been already s ubscribed f or in Tuscany, and the Directors have secured the remaining two - thirds, which w ill b e dis tributed, so soon as the necessa r y documents h ave been perfected in Italy, to such holders of the Italian and Austrian Railway Company's shares as shall have complied with the term s of the advertisement, by which a call was made of 21. per share, payabl e on the 21st July instant. Under the original prospectus the Directors were authorised to take every necessary step to o btain Govern ment grants for the railway from Verona to Ancona, and to coalesc e or make beneficial arrangements with any companies proposing to const ruc t li nes o f railway in connexion with the Italian and Austrian Railway Com pany or its branches, and the deputation who proceeded to Italy having found that they could, with great advantage to the Share holders, enter upon other railway undertakings i n the Italian and Austrian States, besides the line bet ween Ancon a and Verona, deter mined upon doing so, and upon giving to the Shareh o ld ers the option of joining these undertakings. The Directors, therefore, tendered for the valuable grant they have now obtained for the railway from Florence to Pestoja, and also have entered upon several other nego tiations, which, through the aid of the wealthy and influential parties with whom they are connected at Rome, Bologna, and other places in Italy, they feel confident will be brou g h t to a successfid ter mination. The benefits resulting from these negoti a ti ons will, as they arise, be rateably apportioned to those Proprietors who shall pay such calls as shall be made from time to time by the Directors for carrying out Billy the objects in contemplation.

The Committee of Management have much pleasure in announcing that in consequence of the great and influential support they have received in Lincolnshire, as well as along the line of their original project, they will be prepared to bring forward in the next session of Parllamentam Integral scheme, based on the recommendation of the Board of Trade, with good gradients', and shorter than any other line projected or existing, direct from Boston to Sheffield, to be called the BOSTON, NEWARK, and SHEFFIELD RAILWAY. Engineers and Surveyors are now, engaged on the proposed line, and it is confidently toped that the enormous traffic so fully proved and admitted before the Committee of the House of Commons, in the case of the Newark and Sheffield Railway, and which will be so greatly extended by the new project, will ensure success in Parlia ment, and an ample remuneration to the Shareholders. The following gentlemen will be on the Provisional Committee, which is not yet complete, but will shortly be published with a de tailed prospectus, and include a large number of influential parties connected with the town ofßoston PROVISIONAL COMMITTEE.

Belfast: 26, Donegall-street. The proposed railway is intended to connect the &Mize town of Omagh with the important city of Armagh, now the centre of all the railways in the north of Ireland. The line will commence at Omagh, where it will connect itself with the Londonderry and Enniskillen station at that town, and, passing through or near to Ballygawley, Fintona, Clogher, and Augher, A uchnacloy, Caledon , and Killylea, terminates at Armagh, where it will form a junction with the Ulster Railway to Belfast, the Inland Line to Dublin, the Newry and Emilskllen, and also the Armagh, Coie raine, and Portrush Railways. By this line of railway, the inhabitants of Tyrone and the adjacent counties will be afforded the most direct and expeditious mode of ac cess to Armagh, Newry, and Belfast ; and as the distance between Omagh and Dublin will be by this line twenty miles shorter than that proposed by any other company now projected, the whole goods and passenger traffic from the north-western and north-midland parts of Ireland in the direction of the metropolis will pass over this railway. To those acquainted with the county of Tyrone, and the ordinary course of its traffic to Belfast and Newry, it must be obvious that this railway will afford facilities for the transit of goods and pas sengers, which must be at once a great accommodatio n to the public and most remunerative to shareholders. The entire lengh of the line will be about 35 statute miles, The traffic returns justify the expectation that tile Shareholders will derive at least 8 per cent. interest on th eir capital for the present, with every prospect of a progressive increase from the improved traffic which railway communication invariably pred uces.

The FIFTH GENERAL MEETING of PROPRIETORS was held on the Bth July, 1845, at,: the Offices of the Company, Nos. 8 and 9, Waterloo-place, London. JAMES STUART, Esq., Chairman of the Board of Directors, in the Chair. The Chairman laid before them the annual report of the receipts and disbursements of the Company, and of the amount of their funds, and also the annual report of the accuracy of the accounts of the Company, attested by their auditors, all in terms of the deed of set tlement. The meeting having then proceeded to the annual election of four Directors, and one Auditor, in the room of those re tiring at the annual meeting in terms of the deed of settlement, the Chairman said that it only remained for him to express the pleasure which the Board of Direc tors had in again meeting the Proprietors of the Company on the re volution of another year, and in affording to them explanations which could not, he submitted, fail to satisfy the Proprietors of the continued and increasing prosperity of their concerns. A detailed .statement of their accounts, framed by their secretary and ac countant, was now lying on the table, and from that statement the explanations he was about to give were of course derived. They re late to the amount of assurances, to the amount of premiums, to the amount of funds and annual income, and to the losses of the Com pany, and the number of deaths with reference to the number pro vided for in the tables on which they proceeded. 1. The amount of assurances effected in the year from 30th June, 1844, to 30th June, 1845, is 31'2,1941., a sum greater by 41,7601. than in the year 1843, aad greater by 107,3481. than in the year 1842 ; the increase of assurances is in a considerable degree to be ascribed to the activity, zeal, and attention of the Company's agents, at Glasgow, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and Dublin, where the transactions of the Company are steadily making progress. At Edinburgh the Directors have lately established a new agency, which has commenced under favourable auspices, with a very respectable Board, at the head of which is the Lord Pro vost of the city. 2. The Premiums of Assurance received in 1844 are greater by 7,9381. than in 1843, being for 1641 •• • • • • ••• • • •• • • .£63,627 And for the year 1843 Increase in 1844 of. . £7,938 Taking the last half year from Ist January, 1845, to 30th June, 1845, in competition with the corresponding half year of the preceding year from the Ist January, 1844, to 30th June, 1844, it turns out that the increase of premiums for the half year in 1845, is 1,9571. ; there being 276 new policies in the first half year cf 1845, the premiums of which are • And there being 268 policies for the first half year of 1844, premiums 5,916 £1,957 3.

The Annual Income of the Company, as nearly as it can be ascer tained to the 30th June, 1845, i 5...................... £82,100 At the last annual meeting it was stated to 30th Juue, 1844, at ...... ....... •, •••••• • • • • • 72,170 Increase during the year . ....... £9,930 5. While the whole losses on thirty-two policies during the year 1844, amount, after deduction of lapsed policies, to 14,5091., a sum wily greater by 2,3471. than on thirty-one policies for 1843, it is established by the report of Mr. King, the actuary of the Company, new laid on the table, that the number of deaths of those assured since the formation of the Company, to the 31st of December, 1844, had only been 179, instead of 299, which is about the number provided for in the tables of the Equitable Society. The results now communicated showed generally the very flourish ing state of the affairs of the Company, but Mr. Stuart added that he was quite ready to give any further information that the Proprietors might ask of him. Indeed the statement laid on the table was so ample, that the perusal of it would enable the Proprietors to obtain every particular respecting the management which they could desire. The meeting, he need hardly add, was aware of the great altera tions at present in progress, and to be completed in a few weeks, on the premises in Waterloo-place, formerly in their occupation, as well as on those adjoining, sold to them by the London and Westminster Bank, for securing permanently to the Company, and to their officers, ample and convenient accommodation, in certainly one of the very best and most central situations in the metropolis. The purchase of the whole property ha I cost 9,500/., but it was impossible, until the alterations and repairs were completed, to state with precision the amount of the expenditure on this account. The meeting had one very serious cause for regret on this occasion, in the absence from indisposition of the founder of the Company, Mr. Boyd, to whom they owed everything. He had been out of town with his family since the repairs of the house had commenced, and it was with great difficulty that the Directors could prevail upon him not to return to town on purpose to attend this meeting. He was sure that all the Proprietors who were present would join him in a warm expression of their sincere wishes for his speedy restoration to health. Mr. J. G. Henriques felt quite assured,from the satisfactory results of the affairs of the Company now communicated by the Chairman to the meeting, that there existed but one opinion on the subject, and that was one of entire approbation ; therefore he had great pleasure in moving the adoption of the report and relative state ments. Mr. Alex. Henderson Macdougall seconded the motion, which was unanimously agreed to. _ _ _ Mr. De Castro. the Deputy-Chairman, in congtatulating the Pro prietors on the great success which all must adult., from the state ments now laid before them, had attended the management of the Company's affairs, took that opportunity of stating that they were solely indebted for that success to the exertions and unremitting zeal of their respected resident, Mr. Boyd. He therefore felt the most sincere gratification in moving the thanks of the meeting to Mr. Boyd. Mr. D. Q. Henriques had great pleasure in seconding the mo tion, which was carried by acclamation. Mr. Macdougall said he was convinced that the vote of thanks, which he had now the pleasure of proposing, would receive the warm and sincere approbation of the meeting. Their Chairman, they were well aware, had given much of his time and attention to their in terests, and through his influence the accession to the business had been considerable. He therefore moved the thanks of the meeting to Mr. Stuart as well as to Mr. De Castro, the Deputy-Chairman, and to the Directors of the Company, for their very great exertions in promoting the success of the establishment, which motion was seconded by Mr. Sprott Boyd, Mr. Henriques, and Mr. Jefferson, and was unanimously agreed to.

Jacob, secretary to the Chamber of Commerce, Amsterdam. Secretary pro tem. in London—Ed. Alme, Esq., 62, King William street, City. LONDON, 11 t h July, 1845 The grant of this important line of railway was made to the Con cessionaires by conventions dated the 16th May last, duly signed between them and his Excellency the Minister of the Interior, rati fied by his Majesty the King of the Netherlands, and wetted on the 20th of the same month. Its entire length will be about 103 miles, of which 22 miles (from Amsterdam to Utrecht) were opened in December, 1843 and a fur ther length of 36 miles (from Utrecht to rnheim) on the 14th of May last, leaving still to be completed the portion from Rotterdam to Utrecht (31 miles), and from Arnheim to Emmerick (12 miles), with two miles of branch lines to the Entrepot Dock at Amsterdam and the river at Rotterdam. The duration of the grant is for about fifty-three years, terminable at the close of 1898 ; at the expiration of which period it is to be renewed for twenty-five years, and so on for every succeeding twenty-five years, unless the Government give notice of their intention to take it into their own hands, in which case the entire cost of construction (including land), and also any outlay for improvements and additions which may hereafter be made, are to be repaid in full. The whole of the working and other stock is to be taken at a fair valuation, thus rendering unnecessary any sinking fund to replace the capital. The Government have no power to repurchase until the year 1898. There will be no tunnels on this railway, and it will be all but level, except for about three miles in ascending to Arnheim, where the steepest gradient is only lin 300. The broad gauge of 61 feet has been adopted. The whole portion of the line hitherto made, including stations and working stock, has been executed in a very superior manner, under the able direction of the Chief Government Engineer of the Fonts and Chaussees in Holland. The tariff both for passengers and for goods is higher than in Belgium or in France, and the wealth and general habits of the Dutch people are found to produce a much larger proportion of first and second over third-class passengers than in those countries. The railway will have for its two western termini, the densely populated and rich trading cities of Amsterdam and Rotterdam and will traverse provinces, containing 1,526,900 inhabitants. Some idea of the extent of the local passenger traffic may be derived from the fact, that 300,000 papsengers were conveyed in 1844 between Amsterdam and Utrecht (the portion then opened), whilst the re ceipts upon the same portion have nearly doubled during the cor responding months of the present year, and a considerable augmen tation will now be realised as the line is open to Arnheim, the favourite resort of the wealthy inhabitants of Amsterdam and Rotterdam. The imports into Amsterdam and Rotterdam amounted in 1844 to 943,726 tons, and the exports to 580,687 tons, and their East and• West India trade alone employed 330 large vessels. Of this immense goods traffic a large proportion must come upon this Railway, in consequence of the long and frequent stoppages to which the canal and river navigation is constantly subject ftom frost in winter, and the want of water in summer, whilst the unusually good gradients of this Railway will enable it to carry goods at a low rate, and all the expenses of loading, carting, unloading, &c., will be saved, by its having a branch line to the water's edge at the river at Rotterdam, and to the docks at Amsterdam, so as to load and unload goods direct from or into the vessels and railway whggons. It will be seen by reference to the accompanying map, that by means of this Line and of the Over Yssel Railway, which joins it at Arnheim, a direct and unbroken railway communication will be es tablished from Amsterdam, Rotterdam, the Hague, and Utrecht, to the North of Holland, and thence by the various German railways to the interior of Europe, embracing the important populations of Ha nover, Brunswick, Prussia, Austria, Bavaria, Saxony, and the other German States ; and the great capitals and commercial cities of Ber lin, Vienna, Munich, Dresden, Leipzig, Hamburgh, Dantzic, Magde burgh, Stettin, Frankfort on the Oder, Munster, &c. The South of Germany, Switzerland, Italy, and the Mediterranean will also have a direct railway communication with the capital and principal towns of Holland, by means of the branch line which this Railway will have from Arnheim to Emmerick, whence another continuous Line is to I join the Great Rhenish Railway to Cologne, Frankfort on the Maine, Carlsruhe, Baden, &c. By the arrangements which have been made, the Concessionaires transfer the railway to this Company for the sum of 11,895,31711. 27" (somewhat under 1,000,000/. sterling), being the amount actually expended in its construction, including the interest paid upon the capital employed, but giving credit for the receipts during and subse quent to its construction, as ascertained by Commissioners appointed under a Royal Commission, dated October 22, 1844. Of this sum 9,000,000f1. were raised by loan, as will be presently noticed. The Concessionaires have paid a deposit of 500,00011. as caution money, which, with other sums advanced, will have to be reim bursed to them by the Company. The deposit will be returned to the Company on the completion of the railway. The Statutes constituting this Company a " Societe Anonyme," upon the terms before referred to, and regulating Its proceedings, received the Royal sanction on the let inst., and the whole capital was thereupon subscribed. They confirm in all respects the rights of the holders of the Loan Notes for the Loan of 9,000,000 H. Under the terms of that Loan it is to be repaid at 104 per cent., but only out of the actual profits of the line from Amsterdam to Arnheim, of which a separate account will therefore be kept. In the meantime the Loan Note holders re ceive interest at 4% per cent. per annum, and in addition are enti tled to one-forth of the net profits of that portion of the line, and the other three-fourths are to be applied in liquidation of the Loan Notes, to be determined by lot. _ _ The Company have power to buy up the Loan Notes, and it is provided that in the meantime the amount of any Loan Notes which have been paid off out of profits may be replaced out of the capital of the Company, sn as to make those profits applicable to a dividend amongst the Shareholders, inasmuch as the principal so paid off will be ultimately receivable from the Government, in the event of the repurchase of the railway. In settling with the Concessionaires, the Company will at once be credited for the 9,000,00011., and will have to pay ouly the balance, so that it will not be necessary to call for the 9,000,00011., except as it may be paid off to the Loan Note holders. A deposit of 36f1., or 31. per share, is payable within one month from the date on which the Statutes received the Royal sanction; a further instalment of 2411., or 2/. per Share is payable within two months afterwards. Provisional receipts will be given for the fir. t and second payments to be exchanged for certificates after a resolution to that effect shall have been published by the C. urt of General Direction ; and when the full amount of the shares is paid up, the shares win be either to bearer or to the holder, by name, at his option. Further calls of not more than 10 per cent. each will be made at intervals of not less than three months, and with not lees than one month's notice. In case of default being made in any of the payments before re ferred to, the shares will be subject to forfeiture, or to be sold at the risk of the Proprietor, at the option of the Directors. The Shareholders are exempted from all liability beyond the amount of their shares, and will be altogether exempted upon their shares being at any time transferred to others. The net profit will be divisible as follows : 5 per cent. per annum to the Shareholders upon the paid up capital. Of the residue 2-40th parts will be set apart as a reserve fund for extraordinary emergencies, until the same amounts to 500,00011. (about 40,0001.) 2-40ths will be paid to the Concessionaires. 2-40ths to the Directors. 3-40ths to the other members of the General Direction. 1-40th to the Engineer Director and the other employes at the discretion of the Court of General Direction, and the re maining gO-40ths will be divided rateably amongst the Shareholders, and will be augmented to thirty-two-fortieths, when the reserve fund is complete.

This line will form the shortest ; • nd most direct route from Man chester to London. It will also bring the valuable coal fields of Moira and Ashby Woulds into direct and immediate communication with the southern and western markets, by means of the Trent Valley, Midland, and Churnet Valley districts of the North Stafford shire Railways. It will also give to the important town of Burton upon-Trent, and the populous country to the north and west, con venient access to this district. Another principal feature of the lino is, to supply railway am:- immications to the established mineral baths at Moira and Ashby de la Zone!), and to the inhabitants of the latter town and neigh bourhood. It will also afford an outlet to the extensive trade and fabrics of the Lecestershire and Derbyshire Potteries. It will also. by a short branch, have access to the Leicester and Swannington Railway and coal field. Another local advantage sill be the supply of lime to extensive agricultural districts by this line from the quarries of Ticknall, Cloud llill, and Bredon. With these various sources of traffic, the absence of competing lines, and the unusual facilities in the character of the country fur the construction of a railway--no considerable work being required, and the gradients being peculiarly favourable for the working of the line, and the opening of the shortest route between Manchester and Landon—there is a certain prospect of a more than ample return for the capital. A. plan and prospectus will be issued in the course of a few days, and in the meantime applications for Shares, with proper references, may be made to S. S. Baxter, Esq., solicitor, Atherstene.
