TitENT :VALLEY CONTINUATION AND HOLYHEAD JUNCTION RAIL WAY COMPANY. (Provisionally Registered.) The Committee of Management have the pleasure of inforthing their subscribers and scripholders that the Parliamentary surveys are now so far advanced 'as to warrant them in expressing their con viction that the great national and local benefits which will be con ff.rred on the community by the construction of this line can hardly be overrated. They also take this opportnnity of assuring them that it Is their firm determination to proceed to Parliament in the very earliest part of the ensuing session for a JIM to enable them to carry out the line. and every necessary step has been taken for the accomplish ment of this object. The Committee of Management have had under their considera tion sever:.l proposals for alliance and co-operation ; but as these would have necessitated some sacrifice of the great principle of direct communication, they have not deemed it expedient to deviate from the original project. In order to carry out certain improvements and extensions, the Committee of Management have determined to increase the capital by the sum of 250,0001., in 10,000 shares of 251. each, upon which a deposit of 21. 12s. Gd. will be payable on or before the Bth day of October next, which new shares will be issued to the shareholders in the proportion of one share for every four shares now held by them, provided application be made by them in the form and manner, and within the time hereafter specified. The Committee of Management have also to inform the share holders that, under the advice of their Parliamentary Agents, they have found it necessary to call for the further payment of 11. ss. per share on the shares already issued, to enable them to comply with the standing orders of the house of Lords, as recently altered, which require a deposit of 101. per cent. instead of 51. per cent., as hereto fore. The shareholders are, therefore, called upon to pay, on or before the Bth day of October next, the further sum of 11. ss. per share on the shares respectively held by them. All holders of scrip certificates or of bankers' receipts are re quested to forward the same to the Secretary, on or before the Bth day of October next, and to state at the same time their wishes in respect to new shares by letter In the form below. All holders of shares not originally allotted to them, falling to transmit their scrip certificates on or before the Bth day of October next, will forfeit the benefit of new shares ; and original subscribers failing, by the same day, to transmit their scrip certificates or hankers' receipts, will forfeit their right to an additional number of shares. Any parties wishing to withdraw will be entitled to receive the amount of the deposits already paid on their shares on giving up their scrips on or before the Bth day of October next. The importance of the execution of the Parliamentary deeds by respectable parties makes it necessary that the Committee of Ma nagement should reserve to themselves the tight of returning the present deposit money to irresponsible holders of shares, should any present themselves.

The distance from the town of Barnet to the station of the London and Birmingham Railway, at Etioton-square,lby this route, will be 15 miles. 4 ~: The length of the main line, from the point of Junction at Totten ham to the London and Birmingham Railway, will be 11 miles ; and the length of the branch line to Barnet, will be 4% miles. From the junction with the Birmingham Railway to Chipping Barnet, 9% miles ; from the Decoy (near Brent -street, Hendon), on the proposed Barnet and North Metropolitan Junction Railway, to the Nortnern and Eastern Counties Railway, by Stamford-hill, 6% miles. There are no engineering difficulties throughout the entire distance. The line will proceed beyond the range of the Highgate and Hamp stead Hills, and the branch from the main line to Barnet will follow the Talley of the river Brent to the intended station at Barnet ; thus the expense of construction will be less than any other metropolitan it le of railway, for the above reason, and because it will pass through an agricultural district, avoiding all ornamental property and large, collections of houses and buildings.

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 tkat 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 Mamba 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 from 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, en to Lincoln. The country lying between tke towns of Northampton and Grant ham is wholly without existing or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to tke 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 Gainskorough, and, on the other, by a north-eastern course to the market town of Market Raisen, on to the rising port of Great Grimsby. a union with the ihefileld and Great Grimsby Jnnotion Rail way at Marketßaisen, a direct and uninterrupted chain of commn 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 tenons and very considerable ; some of them only can be here enumerated, 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, in addition, it will secure the important and increasing local traftle between that town and Market Rasen and Lincoln. Front Gainsborough, the termini of several railways front the north and north-west, this line will carry the trete to Lincoln, its county lawn. The traffic from Hull to the metropolis, and also to the west, will enter upon this line at Market Itaisen and proceed thereon to Lincoln. From Lincoln the whole of the trafilis passing to the wed and,the intertnefflite towns inuallass oilier this - line. • - In tie event of the Cantbridat and Lincoln RailwayCorripitty'net obtaining .thetr-Bill,•then•the traffic front Lincoln to the•south and wreti.and .also the metrapollsovillpass along this lin, of railway: the fohnir Hui whole diM'ance, and tke latter in any event to Grantham, a distance of about twenty-flye miles ; and should the London. and York Company not succeed, such traffic) will proeeod 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 Oakingham and Uppingham, is without a railway or water-carriage accommodation, and the whole of its traffic therefore will travel over 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 corn. 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 arc more than counterbalanced by the very favourable gradients of by far the greater portion of the lhte ; indeed for many miles the line will run upon a water level. The line will not interfere with ant ornamental property. The landowners en the lino are favourable to the undertaking. The promoters reserve power to alter and vary tke route, to ex tend the proposed line of railway, and to increase the amount of ca pital as may he necessary or advisable. Prospectuses and plans will be ready for dlstelbutfon in a ikw days. In the meantime, applications for shares, in the undermentioned form. may be addressed to the Secretary, 1, Moorgate. • FORM OF APFLICATION.

The Provisional Committee of the North London Junction Rah way Company have great satisfaction In informing their subscribers that negotiations are now pending between the Provisional Commit tee of this Company and the Directors of the Railways north of the Thames of such a character as to assure them that the City terminus of this Company will form the Grand Terminus of all the City traffic north of London. To effect this important object, an area of 10 acres of ground (the southern boundary of which is within 500 yards of the Bank of England) has• been most carefully surveyed and valued, and the re port of the architect and engineer is of so favourable a character as to have induced the Provisional Committee to determine on purchasing the entire site, and it has, therefore, been resolved by them to in crease the capital of this Company to 1,300,0001. The Provisional Committee coneder it of paramount importance to secure within the limits of their City terminus, the amplest and most complete accommodation for the traffic of each of the railway companies who may co-operate with them, an object which will be effected by opening the very extensive and valuable sPitce of ground alluded to, within the centre of the City of London. In conjunction with this enlarged plan, it is intended to embrace that of a branch line to the present station of the Eastern Counties Railway in Shoreditch, which will effect an entire junction between the eastern and western parts of the metropolis ; and at the same time afford a direct communication between the whole of the rail ways, which reach London to the north of the Thames, and give 11111 development to each of their schemes by creating for them a common centre within the,heart of the metropolis. Independently, therefore, of the. almost incalculable local traffic which the position of their City terminus will ensure to this Com pany, will be added that of those companies else who will eventually co-operate with the North London Junction Railway Company, and the perfection of a project of no ordinary magnitude and importance will be realised throughout the whole of this short but very valuable line of railway. A lithographic sketch now publishing will accurately define the entire district through which this Company proposes to run this line; by this means the most casual observer will be enabled to ascertain that the environs of London, north of the Thames, will be placed in immediate communication with the City ; while the dense popu lation of the City will enjoy a fact ity of connexion with its suburban localities, necessarily affording it the greatest accommodation. With such important local resources, therefore, together with the vast traffic on which the shareholders of this Company have a right to rely for profit, a large amount of revenue may be fairly and justly anticipated, fully commensurate with the outlay of the proposed capital. That revenue will be derived thus : The daily passenger traffic on the Great Western amounts to 3,345, one-half of which reaches the City. The London and Bir mingham amounts to 4,322 daily, two-thirds of which reach the City. The Eastern Counties amounts to 2,400 persons daily, half of whom pass to the West-end of London. The omnibus traffic daily is 30,894 passengers, two-thirds of which may be given to the City. Passengers from the suburban districts reaching the City, now tut accommodated by any railway, are estimated at 4,000 daily. From these sources the following products are derived:— Pee Anil. Pass engers from the Great Western and Birmingham Rail way, at 6d. each• • •'• •••••• • • • • • • • Passengers from the Eastern Counties to the City terminus of this Company, at 3d. each • • Omnibus passengers' traffic, at 6d. each, as taken at present 167,129 land to present a completeness of locomotive communication which ■s other country in the world enjoys.

This line of railway will commence at the junction of the Man chester aid Birmingham, Chester and Crewe, and Grand Junction Railways, at Crewe, in the county of Chester, and proceed item Moue@ through or near the towns of Market Drayton, Newport, and Shlffnal, in Shropshire, thence through the flourishing town of Kid derminster, to Worcester and Tewkesbury, and te the Bristol Rail way at Gloucester. By this means it will form the most direct route from Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Hull, and Chester to the important ports of Gloucester aid Bristol, indeed the most direct line from the north of England te the Bristol Channel. lt will also, In conjunction wtih the proposed Hereford and Worcester, and Swan sea, Merthyr-Tydvil, and Hereford Railways, fom the most advan tageous rout* from Cwansea and the iron districts ef South Wales , M Liverpool, Manchester, and Hull. The line will cross the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway at Shiffnal, and the Shropshire Mineral Railway and the Trent Valley Union at the thriving town of Newport. It will form a junction with the two latter railways at Newport, whereby persons and lug gage may be conveyed to Stafford, Derby, the midland counties, Staffordshire lotteries, Sheffield, and Hull ; and, In addition to the carriage of heavy goods from Bristol, Gloucester, Worcester, and Kidderminster, to Manchester, Liverpool, the whole of the north of England, and Scotland—will secure a large patteenger Waite in the district through which it passes. A branch Will be made from New port to the important town of Wellington. The proposed railway will be about 87 miles in length, and be tween the two termini of Crewe. ask! Gloucester, will wave in (Maarten at the pro, sent rapid rate of tra ve lli ng, i n a b eut two h ours . Thi s p ro j e ct as, a junction lino, connects itself with some of the most impprtant rail ways in the kingdom. It also skirts the large,ixtenwive, and densely populated iron districts of Shropshire and Staffordshire, and in its course passes through a rich agricultural country. It must, there fore, be obvious that there will be a sufficient train* to pay a high rate of interest on the capital required. There are no engineering difficulties in the country through which the line is intended to pass, the whole being nearly on a level, and on reference to the map of oountry, taken from the Ordnance survey, which accompanies the prospectus, the line will appear straight, and will at the same time show the superior advantages it possesses, and that it cannot be surpassed by any existing or projected lines betweea WO same tortillal. It will not interfere with any ornamental property, put 31 • tunnel ling will be required. Application is intended to be made, in the ensuing session t..f Par' ]lament, for a direet line of railway (of which a survey has be:.n made) ftom Southampton to Kidderminster, and by which a ready comnmnicationwill be afforded to the most southern parts of England, The liabilities of the Shareholders will be limited to the amount of their subscriptions, and interest will be allowed on the deposits and furtker calls, from the date of the several payments to the opening of the line.

This line will commence at the Long Eaton station of the Midland Counties Railway, and will proceed in a direct line to or near Castle Donington, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Measham, and Market Bosworth to Nuneaton; joining, at Market Bosworth, the Birminghara branch, projected by the Tamworth and Leicester Company, and at Nuneaten, the projected Coventry, Nuneaton, Birmingham, and Leicester Railway, at the point where that line crosses the Trent Talley lite. Thus a direct communication will be formed between the important towntif Nottingham, Newark, and Lincoln on the one side, and Birmingham, Coventry, and Warwick on the other side, at the same time a rich mineral and agricultural district will be supplied with railway advantages. • A reference to the map will shot , ' that this railway will also warn 'nand other collateral advantages. _ There is ao doubt that the proposed railway coraminication be tween Cheltenham and Warwick will be effected, is which case the proposed line will 111 ap the railway chasm at preoeut existing be tween the eouuties of Gloucester and Worcester, and Nottingham and Lincoln, and thus form a direct line from the Severn at Glouces ter to the Humber at Great Grimsby. An amalgamation of the Great Grimsby and Sheffield Junction with the Grimsby Dock Company being now determined on, a large amount of capital will be expended In rendering Great Grimsby a port of the first importance ; and it must be obvious that the traffic to that port, front the district mouth west of Warwick, will he very great. _ . The distance saved by the proposed line between Leamington, Warwick, Coventry, and Nottingham will be about twenty miles ; and between Birmingham and Nottingham, the saving will be about six miles. Being the shortest _ronte from Birmingham to Not tingham and Lincoln, it must secure the traffie from Birmingham to Nottingham, Newark, Lincoln, and the port of Great Grimsby ; and by joining with the Enmesh Valley Railway at Long Eaton, it must command the traffic from Coventry, Warwick, and the district soath of those towns to Sheffield, Leeds, York, and the north of England generally. It will also afford a direct communication between Not tingham and the district between Warwick and Worcester, by means efthe projected Worcester, Warwick, and Rugby, sad the Warwick and Worcester Railways. The entire length of the line will be about 28 miles. The Com pany's Engineer has completed his preliminary survey, and has made his report, that the eharacter of the country through which the line is intended to pass is unusually favourable fir engineering purposes. It passes directly through a very productive mineral district, la tersecting the Leicestershire coal-fields and lime-worts, and will afford commualcation Borth and south, to the Derbyshire Potteries. With such an assured immediate and prospective smut of traffic, the profits on the small capital required cannot fail to be highly re munerative. Powers for allowance of interest at four per cant. en the paid-up capital will be taken, and the liability of sharehtiders limited to the &meant of their subscriptions. Prospectuses may be had at the Temporary Offices of the Company, i 9, Ring's Arms-yard, Coleman-street, London ; where also applica tions for shares, addressed to the Previsional Committee, will be attended to.

The great importance of the above lino of railway, not exceeding 64 miles in length, will be immediately seen by referring to the map. It commences at the Farnborough station of the South-Western Rail .way, crossing the Great Western line between Slough and Maiden heed, and terminates on the Oxford and Rugby line of railway at Heyford, beyond Oxford, on the route to Birmingham, accomme 'dating in its course, Bracknell, Sunning-hill,Bagshot, Ascot, Windsor, Great 3larlow, High Wycombe, Princes Risborough, Theme, Ricester, and many other places at present without railway communication. It will form the most direct route from London to Banbury, War wick, and Birmingham, and by the Grand Junction Railway to Man chester, Liverpool, Lancaster, and Carlisle, and by the Caledonian Railway to Glasgow and Edinburgh ; also front Crewe to Chester. Birkenhead, and Holyhead, thus opening the most direct communien tlon with Dublin. ..... It will also, by a short branch to Woodstock, in connexion with the Cheltenham and Oxford line, form the most direct route to South Wales, Waterford, and the south of Ireland, as well as by the Ox 'ford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton line to Worcester, and conse quently to all the central portion of Wales, thus firming the shortest 'route to all Wales and Ireland. To the advantages offered to the above places, by saving about fourteen miles in the tranaits to London, must be added that of con necting them with the South-Western and the Reading and Reigate Pries, affording passengers an opportunity of proceeding to South ampton, Portsmouth, Isle of Wight, Dover, Brighten, and all adja cent places, without the necessity of passing through the metropolis, thereby saving much time and inconvenience. The length of this line will not exceed 57 miles, and it will save as average distance of 14 miles to each of the before-mentioned places, as compared with the route now traversed by the Great Western Railway. It is satisfactory to state that there are no engineering difficulties, and that the land is the least valuable of any In the coun ties through which this line is intended to pass, avoiding, as it dOes. parks and ornamental property. It 'will be seen from the foregoing facts that the formation of this line will afford very great advantages to nearly all parts of England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, as it will materially facilitate the de livery of their many marketable products by opening another and more direct route to London. It is not, therefore, too much to eX , peet that, independently of a great local traffic, there will be also an immense through traffic brought on this line, Which must pay at least 10 per cent. on the capital required. This is manifest, as the construction of the line will not cost 20,0001. per mile. while the London and Birmingham Railway cost 53,0001. per mile, upon which enormous outlay it continues to ;ay 15 per cent. Shareholders in the Grand Junction, Great Western, South Western, Oxford and Rugby, Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhamp ton, and Birmingham and Oxford Junction Railways will have a pre ference in the allotment of shares after parties locally interested. The deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the share holders beyond the deposit now paid, until the Act of Parliament shall be obtained ; and power will be taken in the Act to allow four per cent. interest on all calls until the line be completed, which. 11om the nature of the ground to be gone over,-is not expected to exceed two years. The Company reserves the power of forming a branch to Oxford. if found necessary. Application for shares may be made, in the annexed form, to the following aharebrokers :—London : Mr. W.
