SzmirrAßY—Mr: dolor C. Sommers. In submitting this undertaking to the public, the promoters are influenced no less by a conviction of Its importance as a direct con necting line between the important towns of Chichester and Ports mouth and the metropolis, than by its grand national importance in affording a direct communication between the two great military and naval arsenals of Great Britain--Portsmouth and Chatham. The projected undertaking, by proceeding to the two termini at Chichester and Portsmouth, will extend the facilities of communica tion with the coast branches of railways along the south of England, connecting itself with Brighton to the eastward, and Southampton towards the west. By the main line falling into the Brighton Rail way the advantage of two termini in London will be secured—the one at the Bricklayers' Arms, and the other at London-bridge—the latter of which, from its proximity to the Custom House, and the several docks on the Thames, is acknowledged to be the best position for a London terminus for merchandise of all descriptions. The line of railway intended to be constructed bythis Company will commence at or near the Redhili station near Reigate, on the Lon don and Brighton Railway, a distance of 21 miles front London • badge. In its course to Portsmouth it will pass through or near Reigate, Newdigate, Cupel, Ockley, Ewhurst, Rudgwick, Cranky, Alfold, Billinghurst, Wisborough-green, Plaistow, Haslemere, Chiddingfold, North Chapel, Kirdford, Petworth, Midhurst, Chilgrove, Stoughton, Racton, Westbourne, and Emsworth, at or near which last•mentioned place this projectedliee will join the Chichesterand Portsmouth Rail way to Portsmouth. A branch is proposed to be made from Dorking to join the nabs line at or near Capel. By this course the entire distance to travel between London and Portsmouth will be abridged to 73 miles, a distance considerably shorter than that by which any line hitherto projected between London and Port-mouth has proposed to pass, and ulso pursuing a route snore populous and productive than any hitherto presented to public notice. It will involve the construction of only 45 miles of railway to complete the course between the Redhill station (near Reigate) and Emsworth. From London to Reigate by the London and Brighton itailroad is • • •••••• • • • • • • 21 miles. The juncttou to be made by.this Company is ............ 45 „ From the point near. Emsworth to Portsmouth by tho _ . Chichester and Portsmouth Railway is ........ ....... Total distance from London to Portsmouth.. 73 miles. From Chilgrovo a line of seven miles will be constructed, and which will, place Chichester' in direct communication with London. The distance between Chichester and London by this route will be 62 miles, and trains will run direct between Loudon and Chichester. Inasmuch as the existing line of railway to Dover branches oft from the London and Brighton Railroad at Reigate, this projected line will open up a communication by railroad between Portsmouth and Dover. From an inspection of the map, It will he seen that the Redhill station, near Reigate, lies nearly in. a direct line between Ports mouth and:Chatham, and in pursuing the line of communication be tween the last-mentioned naval and military depot, this line will pass through or near to the towns of Bietchingley, Godston, Limpstield, Westerham, Seven Oaks, Ighthani, Town Mailing, Wsotham, Off ham, Snodland, Lower Halting. and Wouldham. -" The distance between Chatham and Reigate will involve the making of 31 miles of railrwsd, and the line of railroad between Portsmouth and Chatham will exteal over 82 miles. To the naval and military. establishments 'of this kingdom the construction of this projected line will afford the most important fa cilities in the transit of troops, stores, baggage, &c., diminishing the tardy course of communication Which at present necessarily exists between Portsmouth and Chatham, at present usually extend ing over the space of two days, and placing them in that direct com munication with each other which, in 'two hours, or thereabouts, will enable the journey between them to be made. The formation of - a direct line of rail way between Portsmouth and' Chatham will afford the opportunity of establishing, by an electric telegraphic, that celerity of communication so important to be obtained between places 01 national importance. The warm support of the principal landowners on the greater part of the line is pledged to this undertaking. The Provisional Committee abstain from making any special re ference to the contemplated profit to result from carrying into effect this undertaking, feeling convincer' that the extent of traffic through the populous and rich districts over which this line and its branches are projected to pass Is sufficiently known, and is decisive of the Inutility of all comment In that respect.

This railway will conne ct the North Sea with St. G eorge ' s Channe l , and form a direct route from Holyhead to Hull. It will commence at Cheater where it will form a junction with the Chester and Holy ay, an d passing between head and 'Chester , and Birke nhead Railw Northwich and Middiewle h, to Macclesfield, Sh effield, Rotherham, Doncaster and Howden, by a junction with th e H ull and Selby line, it will proceed to Hull. saving in distan ' ce will be effected between By the proposed line a Chester and Macclesfield of seventeen miles; between Macclesfie ld three miles; and betwee n Sh e ffi eld and Hull of thirty miles ; making and Sheffield, twenty three the aggregate a saving o f s i x t y m il es be tween Chester and Hull. This line will connect itself at Macclesfield with the Manchester and Birmingham ; at Sheffield with the proposed Leeds, Wakefield, Barnsley and:Sheffield, and also with the proposed line from Sheffield through Gainsborough to Great Grimsby, and at Howden it will form a junction with the York and Selby, Leeds and Selby, and the Great Northern Railways. The direct transit which this line will afford between the ports of Hull anti Dublin, combined with the immense traffic arising from the Baltic and Great Norther n trade of Euro p e, the densely-populated and highly commercial and manufacturing districts of Sheffield, Macclesfield, and the salt works of Cheahlre, together with the com munication it will open for conveying the prcdnce of the inexhausti ble mines of Wales across the entire kingdom, will render tine line one of the most lucrative and pre-eminently desirable for permanent investment. It is no slight advantage in this undertaking that, whilst it forms a connecting line with so many railways, it will not interfere with any of those in existence, but will, on the contrary, afford additional ac commodation to their general traffic. The surveys will be completed without delay; and in the mean time it is reserved to the Committee of Management to make such alterations in the line, or amalgamations with other companies, as may be deemed most advantageous to the interests of this 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 Hell's to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only.

PROSPECTUS. _ _ _ The objects intended to be accomplished by this undertaking are— Firstly—The supply of local railway accommodation to the impor tant districts embraced by the line. Secondly—The benefit of railway communication with the metro polis to a district of country upwards of fifty miles in length at pre sent unprovided with that accommodation. Thirdly—The completion of the chain of railway communication between the river Severn and the southern and western counties, and the north-eastern district of the kingdom and the river Idnmber and its ports, including that of Hull. Commencing at the town of Northampton, in conjunction with the London and Birmingham, and the lines of railway proposed to con verge at that town from Cheltenham, and the west front Worcester and from Warwick, the line will proceed in a direct course to the market town of Kettering, by which place all the companies compet ing for the line of railway between London and Manchester propose to pass. It will then proceed also in a direct course to the market towns of Uppingham, Oakham, and Grantham, on to Lincoln. The country lying between the towns of Northampton and Grant ham' is wholly without existing or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to the south but also to the north.' At Lincoln the line will fork, and proceed, on the one hand, in a northerly direction to the flourishing port of Gainsborough, and, on the other, by a north-eastern course to the market town of Market Raise', on to the rising port of Great Grimsby. By a union with the Sheffield and Great Grimsby Junction Rail way at Marketßaisen, a direct and uninterrupted chain of communi cation will be established between all the above-mentioned districts and the town and port of Hull. The sources of traffic which this line will secure are various and very considerable ; some of them only can be here enumerated, viz.:— Starting from Great Grimsby, the line will appropriate to itself the whole of the traffic from thence to the metropolis, and also the southern and western districts of the kingdom, and, is addition, it will secure the important and increasing local traffic between that town and Market Raisen and Lincoln. From Gainsborough, the termini of several railways from the north and north-west, this line will carry the traffic to Lincoln, its county town. The traffic from Hull to the metropolis, and also to the west, will enter upon this line at Market Raisen and proceed thereon to Lincoln. From Lincoln the whole of the traffic passing to the west and the intermediate towns must pass ever this line. ' In the event of the Cambridge and Lincoln Railway Company not obtaining their Bill, then the traffic from Lincon to the south and west, and also the metropolis, will pass along this l l ine of railwanthe former the whole distance, and the la tter in any event to Granth am, a distance of about twenty-five miles ; and should the London and York Company not succeed, such t r affic will proceed on to Kettering or Northampton. The entire district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance of more than forty miles, and including the market towns of r l r ag v e e r Oakingham and Uppingham, is without a rtaiilawareorwwilaltterra accommodation and the whole of Its traffic ; this line of railway, which will be in the direct course not only to the west but also to London. At Kettering this line will unite with that one of the now com peting schemes passing that town from Manchester and Leicester to London, which shall be successful before Parliament. The country is free from engineering difficulties, with one or two exceptions only, and those are more than counterbalanced by the very favourable gradients of by far the greater portion of the line; indeed for many miles the line will run upon a water level. The line will not interfere with any ornamental property. The landowners on the line are favourable to the undertaking: The promoters reserve power to alter and vary the route, to ex tend the proposed line of railway, and to increase the amount of ca pital as may be necessary or advisable. Applications for shares may be made to the Secretary, or to the following Sharebrekers, of whom prospectus es with maps of the line may be obtslned:—London —Messrs.Peppercorne and C0.,2,01d Broad street; Messrs.

William Polhill Kell, Esq., Lewes Robert Foreman, Esq., Solicitor, Tonbridge Wells Benjamin Hall, Esq., Buxted Lodge, near Uckfleld. This railway is projected to form a direct communication between Brighton and Tonbridge Wells. It will commence at a point of junction with the Brighton and Lewes Railway at the town of Lewes, and proceeding by the Valley of the Ouse, pass by 'Lichfield and Rothertield, thence following the valley to Groombridge, proceed to Tonbridge Wells, and there form a junction with the Tonbridge Wells branch of the South-Eastern Railway. The length of the line will be about twenty-two miles. The neces sity and advantages of this line of railway are self-evident—it will connect Brighton immediately with the populous and fashionable neighbonrhood of Tonbridge Wells, and more mediately it will con nect Southampton, Portsmouth, Chichester, and the ports of the western coast of Sussex, with the important towns of Maidstone, Chatham, Rochester, Canterbury, and Dover; thus effecting the greatly desired object of the shortest and most rapid communication between Dover and Southampton. The internal communication between Rent and Sussex will be thus rendered complete. The following towns and populous villaies are in constant trading communication with Lewes and Brighton, and will be accomniedated by this line :—Barcombe, Ringmer, Isfield, Little Horsted, Hatfield Marestield, Framfield, East Hoathly, Mayfield, Withylaam, Wadhurst, Newhaven, and Harbour, Waldron, Fletching, Buxted, Rotherflcld, Lamberhurst, Frant, Ticehurst, Groombridge, Hartfield, Ashurst. The existing local traffic will thus be alone sufficient to prove highly remunerative, ov_eiusive of the great passenger and goods traffic that must of necessity flow into this course as soon as the ne cessary accommodation is afforded. Detailed traffic tables are ia course of preparation. The preliminary surveys have been com pleted, and , no difficulties, engineering or otherwise, present them selyes, but, on the contrary, this railway will be of facile constrne tion, and easy gradients The landowners generally are favourable to this line, to which they have pledged their support. . . The usual po . ;ver will be taken in the Act of Parliament to allow interest at the rate of 4 per cent. on all paid-up calls from the passing of the Act until the completion of the line, and the liability of the shareholders will be limited to the amount of the subscription. Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained, the affairs of this Company will be under the control of the Committee of Management for the time being, to whom power is given to allot the shares, and to apply the funds of the Company in payment of all the expenses incurred in its formation, and in the preparation of the plans and sections to be submitted to Parliament. Power will be applied for in the Act, and in the meantime Is hereby given to the Committee of Management, as above, to raise any ad ditional capital, to abandon any part of the line, to make branch lines, or enter into any arrangements with any other company or companies, and also to nominate the first Directors of the Company.

The Directors have to congratulate the shareholders of the Lei cester and Tamworth Junction, and of tine Coventry, Nuneaton, Bir mingham, and Leicester Railway Companies, on the union of inte rests which has been effected by the anutittamation of the two Com panies under the title of " The Leicestt x, Tamworth, Coventry, Birmingham, and Trent Valley Junction Railway Company," whereby such an accession of strength has been obtained as to ensure a successful issue to their application to Picrliament during the next session. By this arrangement the shareholders, in each Company are en titled to exchange the shares they now held in the separate Com panies for a like number in the united Company. or at their option to receive back the full amount of their deposits. One branch of this railway will com mence at or near the Wigton station, near Leicester, on the Midlands Railway, where it will unite with the proposed South Midland Railway, thereby opening a com munication with Market Harborough, Nort h am ptonshire, Bedford shire, and the south, and will proceed through Hinckley and Nun eaton to Coventry, forming a junction vti ith the Trent Valley Rail way at Nuneaton Another branch will proceed from the Midlands Railway at Leicester, by Market Bosworth to Atlwrstone, where it will unite with the Trent Valley Railway. Surveys for the proposed extension to E irmingham are In a state of great forwardness. The objects embraced by the Compstn.y as now constituted are threefold : First—To effect a direct communicatfron between Leicester and Liverpool, by means of the junction with' the Trent Valley Railway at or near Atherstone, thereby effecting a saving in distance of 30 miles. Secondly—To afford the most direst communication between Leicester, Birmingham, and the iron districts of Staffordshire, by means of a junction with the Birrninghazat and Derby Railway at the Whitettere station, thereby reducing the distance between Birming ham and Leicester from 49 to 35 mills. Thirdly—To connect the important tow na of Coventry, Bosworth, Nuneaton, Hinckley, and Leicester by t.. 1 ,e nearest practicable line, thereby reducing the distance between Coventry and Leicester seven miles, and affording ...Away accommodation to the important manu facturing and mineral districts of bout n beteeateteldro and North Warwickshire, and also communicating:, by means of the Coventry branch of the London and Birmingham Railway, with Leamington, and by means of the projected WarwielK and Cheltenham Railway with Cheltenham. The proposed line will afford an outlet, by means of a branch to the Leicester and Swannington Railway., for the coal, lime, and other mineral productions of Leicestershire. to the districts south and west of Leicester. The four important towns of Leicester, Coventry, Tamworth, and Birmingham, containing a population of upwards of 300,000, will be brought by this railway into immedit de connexion. The country has been carefully surn , eyed, and the Parliamentary plans and sections are nearly perfected. By order, J. B. ICATHBO . ).4`E, Sec. pro tem.

This line is projected by the 11orfol Railway Company and the Grand Union Railway Company, and it will form a connecting link between those two lines. _ _ Leaving the station of the Norfolk Ct .mpany at Brandon, the line proceeds via Downham Market to Wiese ch, and from thence to Spald ing, being a distance of about 40 miles.. At the latter town it joins the Grand Union Railway, which con tt nues via Grantham to Not tingham, thus completing a direct and it dependent line of communi cation between Yarmouth and Norw lc h, and Nottingham and the manufacturing districts. The distance between the termini wi lt be as short by the proposed route as by the Lynn and Ely and Lyn r i and Dereltam IMes ; whilst the trait:: between Nottingham. Yarmcs ith, and Norwich, and the central, west, and south parts of Norfoll c, the north of Cambridge shire, and the counties of Suffolk and Es sex, being under the control of friendly Companies, will be secured f this undertaking. Estimates for the traffic are in course,. of preparation. In the mean time it may be stated that, from the da t t already furnished respecting some of the important Mc:titles throng h which the line passes, added to the fact that it forms part of a direr I course of railway communi cation between Manchester and the se **rounding manufacturing dis tricts, and the ports of Yarmouth and ; Lynn, there is no doubt an ample reimmeration will be secured for t 'le shareholders. Satisfactory arrangements have bee st made with the Eastern Counties Railway Company in refei•ence• to that portion of the line between Wisbech and Spalding*, which hft 3 been agreed to be leased by them from the Wisbech and St. Ives a mmany. If the Wisbech and St. Ives Company s uccaed in their application to Parliament, the line to be made by ti ‘a Company will be limited to that part between Wisbech and Bran don ; and in either case the two Companies promoting this line have tweed to take a lease of it at a rental equal to 4 per cent. on the outla, f, and a moiety of the sur plus profits.
