The object of this Railway is to connect South and North Wales, the improving and important port and fashionable watering place of Aberystwith, Shropshire and Cheshire, &c., with Manchester, Lan cashire, Yorkshire, Staffordshire, the Potteries, Derbyshire, and the North of England. Its course will be a continuation ofthe Manchester and Birming ham Railway from Crewe, through Nantwich, Whitchurch, Elles mere, Oswestry, Welshpool, Montgomery, Newtown, and Llanidloes, terminating at " Cardigan Bay," and the Port of Aberystwith, with a Branch from Ellesmere to the coal-fleld of Rnuabon. Preliminary surveys have been made, and it presents no engineering difficulties, and is remarkably favourable for cheap construction. This line is especially called for by the local wants of the districts, is not a competing line with any existing or proposed Railway, and will be the only direct route from Shrewsbury, Ludlow, Leominster, Hereford, Abcrystwith, Machynfleth, Rhyader, Likn'dloes, Newtown, Bishop-Castle, Montgomery, Welshpool, Llanfyllin, Dolgelly, Llan gollen, Rhuabon, Chirk, Overton, Oswestry, Ellesmere, Wem, Frees, Whitchurch. Audlem, and Nantwich, to the Staffordshire Potteries, Warrington, Manchester, and the whole of Lancashire and York shire, thus accommodating a population of not less than 300,000 indi viduals. _ . And, by means of this line and "the Trent Valley Continuation Railway," it will give the only communication by Railway from Market Drayton, Malpas, Wrexham, and Mold, with the above named districts and towns. And, jointly with the " Trent Valley Continuation Railway," will be the most direct line from Oswestry, Went, Ellesmere, Llangollen, Overton, and Rhuabon, to Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and London. It is a most important fact that Crewe, the Terminus of this line, is the centre of five existing or proposed Railways, embracing the immense locomotive establishments of those Railways, and the branch from this line proceeds to the great iron-works and coal-field of Rhuabon. Engineers and scientific men have fully established the fact, that the coal of this district is the finest in Europe for the ma nufficture of coke, and by this Railway it will be brought directly to the before-named locomotive establishments, and also be the means of supplying the interior of Wales with coal, much better, and at a lower price than at present. It will greatly benefit the extensive agricultural population of South and North Wales, the Vale of Clwyd, Shropshire, and Cheshire, which will obtain a cheap and quick transit for their agricultural produce to the Crewe establishments, and the manufacturing dis tricts of the Potteries and Manchester, including the whole of Lan cashire and Yorkshire, and also to Birmingham and London. The importance to the several counties through which this Railway will pass, of access to the safe harbour of Aberystwith, cannot be overrated. A great intercourse and interchange of commodities must take place between the agricultural districts, the coal and iron mines of Wrexham and Rhuabon, and the flannel manufactories of Welshpool, Newtown, &c., with Manchester. The existing frank is very considerable, and a glance at the ac companying map will show at once the great resources of this line ; and, it Is manifest, that it certainly must become one of the most valuable and productive lines in the kingdom. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate of 41. per cent. on all deposits and calls paid up, after the passing of the Act. Applications for Prospectuses, Plans, and Shares, may be made to the Secretary, at the Office, 78, King William-street, City, London, and the following Share-Brokers:—Thomas Allsop, Esq., 34, Corn hill ; Messrs.

This important undertaking, In connexion with the projected Lei cester and Birmingham Line, and the existing Midland. Railways, will form the most complete and direct line of communication yet projected between the great corn-producing counties of Norfolk and Lincoln, and the populous- manufacturing districts of the Midland Counties, of which Birmingham is the centre. . . _ It will: in conjunction With the line via East Dereham to Lynn, and the Norwich and Yarmouth Railway, establish a direct commu nication from Yarmouth and Norwich to Birmingham. By means of its junction with the proposed Cambridge and Lin coln or the London and York lines, as the case may be, it will also bring within the range of Its advantages the whole of the country between Lincoln and Peterborough. The part of the line extending from Boston by Spalding to Market Dee! ing, and the Branch from Spalding to Lynn, will also form the direct route to London from those towns and the country northward thereof as far as the 'lumber. On the other hand, it will bring the whole of this highly cultivated and populous county into direct and immediate communication with the great coal-fields of Leicestershire and Warwickshire ; the pro posed line of the Leicester and Birmingham Railway passing through the latter, and a Branch Line from tho Leicester and Swannington Railway to the Midland Railway, at Broughton, uniting it with the former. By these means the price of co:,ls will he reduced one-half at Stam ford and the adjacent towns—iui advantage in which this under taking will possess a decided superiority over any other that has been OT can be proposed. By the junction of this line, at Nuneaton, with the Trent Valley Railway, it will also form the most direct communication between Yarmouth, Norwich, Lynn, Boston, Spalding, Stamford, and all the intermediate towns, and Manchester, Liverpool, and North Wales; and, by means of the railways centering at Birmingham, with Bris tol and the whole of the west of England and South Wales. A glance at the map will show that no line that can be devised will so completely effect all the objecti of a grand east and west commu nication as the one now proposed. The line of country traversed by the railway Is n t less favourable in an engineering point of view. From Lynn and Boston to Stam ford, two-thirds of the whole line, the country is one uniform plain; from thence the line follows the Valley of the Welland to or near to Market Harborough, and then passes over an easy country.to the Midland Railway. The enormous exports of corn and other agricultural produce from Lynn, Boston, Wisheach, and Scalding, and the corresponding im ports of manufactured and other goods to those towns, it is confi dently expected will of themselves yield an abundant source of truffle for this Railway ; but when to this is added the great facili ties of Intercommunication which the line will afford, bringing within a few hours' distance the Eastern and Western Coast- of the Island, and to this is added the entire supply of inland coals throughout the country traversed by the Baths ay, there can he no doubt that it will yield a very ample return far the capital required for its forma tion. Applications may be addressed in the annexed form to the Solicitor:— GREAT MEDITERRANEAN AND ADRIATIC JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY.

Deposit, 6 Mil Reis (it. 75.) per Share. This Line, formed under the highest patronage both in Portugal and this country, will immediately connect the harbour of Oporto with the entire wine district. Following the Valley of the Douro, no engineering difficulties pre sent themselves—a fact satisfactorily ascertained by preliminary surveys. Even from existing satistical returns the traffic of this route will amply repay investment, and, when co joined with the Increase which has invariably attended the introduction of railway transit, will ensure a far greater return than any project of the day.

All gas consumers who study economy and a good light are Invited to avail themselves of the advantages and comfort to be derived from the use of Defries's Dry deter, but, to prevent the substitution of im perfect imitations, it is necessary at all times to order Defries's Dry Meter, and to observe his name on the brass badge in front of all his meters. _ .

BRITANNIA LIFE ASSURANCE COM PANY, 1, Princes.street, Bank, and 448, West Strand, Lon don, March 1, 1845. Notice is hereby given, that in pursuance of a resolution passed unanimously at two successive General Meetings of Proprietors, a MUTUAL ASSURANCE BRANCH of this Institution has been established on tenns peculiarly advantageous to the Assured, and that suclS'llranch is supported by the entire subscribed capital of the Company, together with the accumulated tiind of Premiums derived from upwards rf Six Thousand Policies, already effected in the Pro prietary Branch. - Full particulars are stated In the Prospectus, which, with every re quisite information, may tie obtained on application at the office. PETER 'MORRISON, Managing Director. To the PROPRIETORS of the BRITANNIA LIFE ASSURANCE GEXTLEMEN,—In calling COM PAN your attention to the annexed Notice of the establishment of a Mut ual Assurance Branch, I b eg leave to address a few observation s to you relative to the past t rans actions, and the probable result of the proposed extension of the operations of the Ccmpany. That the " Britannia" C ompany has enjoyed the d ec ided and (I trust I may be permitted t o say) deserved approbat i on o f the public, is clearly proved by th e unprecedented fact of upwar ds of 4,000 policies having been iss ue d i n the short s pace of eight years. In order, however, to show th e high degree of credit an d influence pos sessed by the Company, it i s only necessary for me t o s tate, that two highly respectable and well-established Life Assurance Companies have successively transferred their business to this establishment. The former of these transfers took place in the y ear 1840 ; the latter in the course of the p ast year. It is in consequence of thi s l ast-mentioned trans fer, which included a large number of Policie s e ff ected on the mutua l a ssurance plan, and also in consequence of the numerous applications for Assurances on this plan, which they have hitherto been compelled to decline, that the Directors at length determined on the establishment of a Mutual Assurance Branch, on the plan s e t f or th in the Prospectus , a ft er it had been submitted to, and unan i mous l y a pproved by, two succes sive General Meetings of P ro p r i e t ors , specially convened on the occasion. The geceral objection to Mutual Assurance Societies, that (in their infancy, at least) they do not afford that complete security to the Assured which is supplied by the subscribed capital of Proprietary Establishments, is completely removed in the 3futual Brandi of the "Britannia" Company ; for nut only are the Mutual Policy-holders protected by the entire subscribed capital of the Proprietary 'trench, but the large and continually-increasing fnd, accumulated front the Premiums on 6,000 Policies already effected in that Branch, consti tutes an immediately available Rind for the payment of the claims of the Assured, who will thus enjoy all the security a fforded by an old established office, and, at the same time, become entit led to all the benefits to be derived from that system of Mutual Assu rance which experience has proved to be at the same time the safest and the best. Another serious object on to the Mutual Assurance Plan (as gene rally acted on) is the high rate of premium required to he paid, in the first instance, in order to form a fund—not only for the payment of the claims, but also for the distribution of large bonuses among the policy-holders. This objection also is entirely removed by means of the half credit system detailed its the prospectus. For, by allowing half the amount of the first five annual premiums to remain for five years in the hands of the person assured, and applying the bonus (to which he would otherwise beCome entitled) to the gradual liquida tion of the debt thus incurred with the Company, the policy-holder enjoys the rare advantage of a very low rate of premium, in the first instance, combined with that of a Mil participation, eveatually, in the profits. In availing myself of this opportunity of congratulating my co shareholders on the extraordinary success which hitherto has at tended the operations of the Britannia Life Assurance Company, I trust I shall, at no very distant period, have still further to congratu late them on the complete success of the Mutual Assurance Branch, which, after the most anxious care and attention, has be en f oun d e d on a plan calculated, in every possible way, to benefit and accommo- date the public. I cannot, in justice to the Directors, conclude this address without calling your attention to the able and cordial co - operation which )lag been afforded to me on their part, not only an the present important occasion, but also in every other instance in which their advice and Managing Director. assistance have been needful for promoting the interests of the usti tution. I hale the honour to he, Gentlemen, Your most obedient servant, London, 20th March,lB4h.

Publishing in Weekly Penny Numbers, and Monthly Sixpenny Parts, beautifully Illustrated with Wood-cuts, T HE MYSTERIES OF LONDON, By G. W. M. REYNOLDS, Author of "Pickwick Abroad " " Robert Macaire," " The Modern Literature of France," " Master Timothy's Book-case," 8:c. Since the days of 130e3 " Pickwick " no original work has created so powerful a sensation in the reading world as " The Mysteries of London." It was at first contemplated to publish it in monthly shilling Parts ; but, upon mature consideration, the proprietor and author resolved to issue it in a form which should render it accessible to all classes. The prejudice against cheap lit:rature having com pletely died away, this determination was acted upon ; and a suce,::, which far exceeded the most sanguine expectations previously formed has crowned the work. The weekly and monthly sales, taken to gether, now amount to upwards of 30,000 copies. The thrilling in terest of the tale ; the vivid descriptions of London society, both high and low; the graphic delineati on of strange or remarkable localities in the great metropoll4 ; the exposures of all kinds of roguery to which the unsuspicious ones may become a prey : and the fearlessness with which the cause of the industrious millions is espoused, have given to " The Mysteries of London " a character which has become the ele ment of the most lasting popularity.

Mr. Simpson, while drawing the attention of capitalists to the above valuable estates, wishes to state that a second edition of his pamphlet has been published, on which the "Time." newspaper made the following review : " Mr. W. W. Simpson, the well-known and deservedly respected auctioner and land valuator, has recently published a pamphlet, entitled A Defence of the Landlords of Ireland, with remarks on the Relation between Landlord and Tenant.' The Dublin Evening Packet,' in reviewing this work gives the following character of its author Mr. Simpson, we scarce y need remind our readers, is an Englishman of vast experience. in matters relating to the improvement and value of land in his own country. Heti , moreover, a gentleman of most comprehensive views, and possesses an understanding naturally strong, and a stock of practisel knowledge and sterling sense which falls to the lot of very fow persons in his own or any tither rank of life. With the social condition of Iteland he has made it his business, almost as a matter of necessity, to make himself thoroughly acquainted.
