It is a remarkable feature in this line, that there is no competing scheme, nor does it at all interfere with any ornamental or resii.en tial property. It is not considered essential to enter into the details of traffic ; the value of the lines In the district, in that respect, is a sufficient test of its extent, in addition to which, the railway will become the recipie of much of the northern traffic, arising from the numerous branches with which it is connected, and must also become the Grand Trunk Line to London from the Western parts of Yorkshire.

While the return for capital cannot be questioned, and the necessities of the district de mand accommodation, the expenditure must necessarily fall below the usual amount for works of equal magnitude. To identify this project with that of the Erewash Valley, although not included under, or belonging to the same executive, it is pro posed to allow subscribers in that Company shares in the Erewash Extension : the number to be regulated by the interest retained in the elder project. The deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the Share holders beyond the deposit now paid, until the Act of Parliament is obtained ; and power will be taken in the Act to allow 4 per cent. in terest upon all calls. • Prospectuses, - maps, and forms, may be had at the Oakes of Hull Terrell, Esq., solicitor, 30, Baiingliall-street, London ; G.

PROVISIONAL DIRECTORS. PROSPECTUS. Commencing at Cambridge, which has now become the traffic centre of the Eastern Counties, by the line of railway intended to be formed by that Company, this lino will proceed to Bedford, there passing near Olney it will cross at or near the Bliswortii Station of the London and Birmingham Railway, where it will communicate with the Northampton and Peterborough line; it will then [Tweed west ward. crossing the Oxford and Rugby line at or near Fenny-Compton to Stratford-on-Avon, there joining the proposed line from Warwick and Leamington to Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, and the West of England ; continuing its course through Alccster, the line will go di rect to Worcester, and thus terminate at the great centre of traffic for the mineral and manttfactering districts of South Staffordshire, Shropshire, and North and South Wales. This proposed hias du not interfere with any existing railways, and presenting, as it does, an unbroken line between two great centres of traffic, the importance of the undertaking needs no further comment. Negotiations have bean entered into with the Eastern Coun ties Railway Company, by Which their support and co-operation will be ensured for obtaining the line'now proposed. An arrangement has also been made with the proposed Rugby, Warwick, and Worcester Company, which this line will join at Al cester, and by means of which the Eastern Counties' traffic will pro ceed to Worcester. 1 1 :1. sq., M.P. ward, 94 William Beresford, Esq., M.P., 77, Pall-mall, London, Director of the Thames Valley Railway Company fields, I.°l4°° Hon.

Assuming the northern terminus of the Erewash Railway as its origin, this line will pass through localities totally un provided with railway accommodation, into the populous ma nufaCturing districts of Lancashire. It will continue the importaiit line from which it borrows the prefix of its name, from Alfreton, in Derbyshire, where it will be a recipient of traffic from the Cromford Canal—communicating with the Codnor ironworks—along the Dieting Vale, and, obeying the course of the river Derwent, enter Yorkshire, in the vicinity of Saddleworth. In its course, it will pass through or near to Matlock, Ashbourne, Glos sop, Mottram, Hyfield, and Duckenfleld, in reaching which point, the Manchester and Sheffield Railway will be intersected, and the Hud dersfield Canal Railway passed, near to the Rochdale station of the Manchester and Leeds Railway. It is unpecessary to state here the character of the country from Rochdale to Blackburn : it will be sufficient to observe, that it is the seat of those manufactures to which England owes her accumulating wealth. The line will proceed thence through or near to Whitworth and Rossendale, and fall into the East Lancashire Railway, in the ♦icinity of ilaslingden. A branch will be thrown out of the trunk line, from the Junction with the East Lancashire line near Haslingden, by Low-Moor iron works and Bacup, to Todmorden. The Erewash Extension will be the only direct route from the centre of Derbyshire to the great manufacturing towns and chief seaports of Lancashire. It will traverse a valley district adorned with the most picturesque scenery, and, at the same time, rich in mineralpreduce. It wPI communicate, laterally, with several trunk lines of railway, and will be fed by no less than five working canals— the Cromford—the Manchester and Sheffield—the Huddersfield—the Manchester and Leeds—and the Liverpool and Blackburn. To the multiplication of advantages which intersecting railways and lines of still-water navigation are compelled to afford, the throw ing out of branches from the line itself in so many directions will add still further powers of accommodation, and, when the dense popula tion in the localities traversed is considered, there is every reason to conclude that an ample remuneration for vested capital will be ob tained.

This line will pass in a direct course from Tunbridge, via Paddock Wood (thus connecting itself with Maidstone) through the parishes of Brenchley, Horsmonden, Goudhurst, Cranbrook, Benenden, Hawkhurst, Sandhurst, Rolvenden, Newenden, Northiam, Peas marsh, Beckley, Iden, . and Playden, to the town and harbour of Rye, and it will embrace a large extent of adjacent country, at pre sent unprovided with, and much requiring, the admitted advantages of railway transit. The length of the line will be about 25 miles—a great portion of it will pass through a level country, and the remaining part is free from any material engineering difficulty, or works likely to require any serious outlay, and it is not expected to be necessary to interfere with any residences or ornamental property. The saving of distance to Rye, and all the other places embraced by this line,will be considerable. The capital required is estimated not to exceed 600,0001. During the last session of Parliament application was made for a similar Hue, partially embracing the same country, when It was Chown in detail by evidence produced before the Committee, that the contemplated traffic, after deducting 401. per cent. for working ex penses, would leave a large per centage upon the invested capital. That line was rejected on the ground that the best direction had not been selected, but with an intimation that the port of Rye was en titled to a direct railway communication with the interior of the country, in the best direction towards London. The present scheme has been based upon this intimation, taking advantage of the merits and defects which appeared upon that investigation, and as it em braces a more populous and productive country, and passes in a more direct line to London, and will have the benefit of better access to other and more numerous lines, the sources of traffic are consider ably increased, and there is every reason to believe, from what passed during the last session, that the present plan will be favourably enter tained by the Legislature. The chief object is to open the port of Rye to the full benefit of a railway communication, through a populous and productive district, in the direction of London, to the best point at which it can avail itself of the existing and contemplated lines. The imports of Rye, particularly coals, with lime and other ma nures, are of great importance to the country through which this line will pass, and a cheaper and better mode of transit will much increase the demand for them, and give the opportunity of great improvement in the cultivation of the adjacent country. A railway through the heart of the chief hop district of the king dom, also producing corn, timber, and hop poles, and communicating at its terminus with a great part of the important cattle district of Romney Marsh, must be a public advantage. The port of Rye is admitted to be the best outlet and quickest route to Paris and to other parts of the Continent, and there can be no doubt if a direct railway should be made to Rye, with a moderate improve ment in the harbour, that it would be much adopted, particularly as a national and commercial communication with France, and by per sons travelling on business.

This railway is intended to commence at or near to the Alne sta tion on the Great North of England Railway, to proceed by way of Aldborough, Boroughbridge, and Dishforth, and to terminate at the Leeds and Thirsk Railway near to Wath, at a junction with, and so as to form an eastern continuation of, the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union Railway. The length of the line will be about thirteen miles, and, in forming it, three objeers are in view : let. To accommodate Boroughbridge, and a great extent of highly fertile and productive country hitherto entirely devoid of railway communication. 2d. To form a connecting link between the Great North of Eng land Railway, and the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union Railway, and thereby connect with this project part of the trunk lines from Hull, Selby, York, Beverley, Marketweighton, Poeklington, Scarborough, Whitby, Pickering, Melton, &c., and the ea-tern districts to Carlisle, and the west of Scotland by the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union, which passes through Bedale, Leyburn, Askrigg, Hawes, Kirkby, Stephen Appleby, and forming a junction with the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway near Penrith. 3d. To supply the district in question with coal from the pits in the neighbourhood of Leeds, and from those of Durham by means of the Leeds and Thirsk Railway and its extension. To afford accommoda tion to the town of Boroughbridge and its locality by connecting it with Carlisle, Durham, Hull, Ripon, York, Scarborough, &c., which this project will do to a much greater extent than would have been afforded by the Pill Moor branch of last session, from the Great North of England Railway to Boroughbridge, inasmuch as this line will give an outlet is both a northern and eastern direction, whilst that of last session would have afforded merely a northern one. The country is level, requiring no tunnel, and very little cutting or embanking, and the line will consequently be of easy construction. The cost will be comparatively light, and all residential annoyance scheme will, on reference to the or T it h ki e urLto in i g iro o p f er , t i y ist w an il e l e b b e y av t o h i ts ded. map, be seen to be very considerable, especially with regard to rail way communication between the cities of Ripon and York, Wath being only four miles north-east of Ripon; and this line, in con nexion with the Leeds and Thirsk Railway (which runs through that city), forming a continuous, as well as the shortest and best, line of railway between Ripon and York. In the allotment of shares preference will be given to landowners and others locally interested on the line. Applications for shares (accompanied by a respectable reference) to be made to the solicitor or agents in the annexed form:— 'FORM OF APPLICATION.

The surveys have been made by Sir John Mac neill and James Thompson, Esq., and the country is found to be fa vourable to the construction of a railway ; and there is, perhaps, no line of such importance which could be constructed at comparatively so small an expense as the sum named in the estimat e. The length of the line will be but about thirty-nine m Iles ; and by means of this short link, in connexion with existing projects from Nottingham, a saving will be effected between Leeis and the metro polis exceeding twenty-five miles. It will commence at the projected terminus of the Wakefield, Pon tefract, and Goole Railway, at Pontefract, and from thence proceed tshrottipearoughaDor msoz it ter, Tkekhill, and Worksop, to the terminus of the $lO l fwd 20.414Ati COVAtieli liellßos et M eld ; Power will: be - reserved to the Directors to amalgamate with any other existing. or projecting Companies, or to vary the Hue. e Appllmition fOr shares may be made to the Secretary, and to the following Sharebrokers, of whom prospectuses, with maps of the line, snay be obtained:—London—Messrs.

This line is intended to form the most direct communication be tween Hull and Lincoln, Newark, Nottingham, Derby, Birmingham, and the midland and south-western manufacturing districts, and also between Hull anti London, and the south and south-east of England. It is also intended to give the best possible railway accommodation to the rich agricultural district through which it will pass, for the con veyance of its produce to market, and the obtaining of ceal, timber, stone, slate, and other articles. It is proposed La proceed to Hessle by the Hull and Selby Railway, and thence by an extension to the edge of the Humber, to improve the landings on each side of the ferry, so as to procure the greatest possible facility of transit across it. The line will then be continued to South Ferriby Sluice, and thence In a direct line to Brigg and Lin coln, through a perfectly level and rich agricultural district. At and u d Lincoln, that city it will be connected with th e Nottingham and Lincoln, and such other projected lines as may be found expedient. the midland Newark r e k x , extensive Nottingham, t rad phearsbylonifirmexiiisigtehdanibtawnedenliu manu facturing districts, all of which receive a considerable portion of the foreign produce which they consume through the port of Hull, through which also they export a large amount of manufactures. Notwithstan ding the chief porti o n of the traffic found it s way by the t e dious and uncertai n course of the River Trent, a large amount of both ugoolirtodasannd passengers passed a l ong the very ancient road be and Lincoln. Of late years much of it has been diverted by the circuitous, though more expeditious accommodation furnished by railways. The proposed line will be the most direct, econovical, and expe ditious conveyance for this traffic, which it is therefore confidently expected will in a great measure be restored to this its natural channel. . _ - The several other railway schemes in this part of Lincolnshire have in view the promotion of local accommodation, and entirely overlook this important through trade, and render the interest of Lincoln and Hull secondary to that of much less important places. It is impossible to expect that any great :amount of through traffic can be attracted by the Sheffield and Grimsby line, with the delays and inconveniences inseparable from a passage from branch to trunk, and trunk to branch lines, and an unnecessary prolongation of ten or a dozen miles. The ferry, too, at New Holland, with the sand banks in the Humber, present great obstacles to punctuality and expedition, while at the Ilessle and Barton ferry it is confidently asserted that carriages, with thir cotents, can be removed from the line on one side to that on the e other n at all times of the tide, in ten minutes or a quarter of an hour.T r i a a i s lyi b ,a e y en mi c rp ar e e s fall e,, y be s h u ig r- , ve T ye lt d e , country to traversedbe with the exception of three or four miles, roperect level, and free remarkably a b d y a pttheed line fo r .- traffic has been ascei ta ned, and exhibits The goods and passenger from all engineering difficulties or expensive ..i The co-operation of many local interests has been obtained, as well a most satisfactory prespect of ample remuneration for the outlay. t test 11 an d the grea en enteined hat all as of gentlemen connected with severalconfid railwaysceis rm rta teinating at Lin coln and Hu , oppos ition will be speedily overc ome, and the Parliamentary sanc tion to the project obtained.
