Notwithstanding the chief portion of the trianC MITA its way by the tedious an d uncertain course of the River Trent, a large amount of g i s and p as sengers passed along the very anc i en t road oo be tween llarton and Lincoln. Of late years much of it has been diverted by the circuitous, though more expeditious accommodation farnisheel by railways. The proposed line will be the most direct, economical, and expe ditious conveyance for this traffic, which it is therefore contigently expected Kill 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 iimportant t places.

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 important 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 l)inting Vale, and, obeying the course of the river Dement, enter Yorkshire, in the vicinity of Saddleworth. In its course, it will pass through or near to Matlock, Ashbourne, Glos sop, Mottram, Hydeld, and Duckenfield, 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 unnecessary to state here the character of the country from Rochdale to Blackburn : it will be sufficient to olverve, that 't is the scat of those manufactures to which England owes her accumulating wealth. The line will proceed thence through or near to Whitworth and Itosscilale, and fall into the East Lancashire Railway, in the vicinity of liasllngden. , A branch will be thrown eut of the trunk line, ftotif the Junction with the East Lancashire line near Haslingden, by Low-Moor Iron works and Bacup, to Totimorden. The Erewash Extension will be the only direct route from the centre of Derbyshire to the great manufacturing towns and chief seapcirts of Lancashire. It will traverse a valley district adorned with the most picturesque scenery, and, at the same time, rich in mlnerel produce. It will communicate, laterally, with several trunk line , of railway, and be fed by no less than five working canals tl e Cromford—the Manchester and Sheffield—the Huddersficld—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 wall aid still further powers of accommodation, and, when the dense popula tion in the localities traversed is considered, there is every • eas m to Conclude that an ample remuneration for vested capital via b 3 ob tained. V7P ll 9w/1 1 5 le course of r:yers, iu this imitate, AU ist with the exact direction of the projected line, highly favourable gra e• nts are obtained for a considerable pa t of the length ; and eve r y tiler section of the country, upon a preliminary survey, has been reported as more than commonly practicable. While the return for - capital cannot be questioned, and the necessities of the district dti, Wand accommodation, the expenditure must necessarily fall belo - IP 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 id 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.

This line will pass in a direct course from Tunbridge, via Paddock Wood (thus connecting itself with Maidstone) through the parishes of Bronchley, Horsmonden, Goudhurst, Cranbrook, Benenden, Ilawkhurst, Sandhurst, Rolvenden, Newendea, 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 front 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 500,0001. During the last session of Parliament application was male for a similar line, partially embracing the same country, when it was shown In detail by evidence produced before tile Committee, that the contemplated traffic, after deducting 40/. per cent. for working ex penses, would leave a large per tentage upon the invested capital. 'flat 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 preseut 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 11111 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 okltye, particularly coals, with lime and other ma nures, are of great importance to the country through which this line will pass, and a cheaper wed better mode of transit will much increase the demend for them, and give the opportunity of great improvement in the cultivation of the adjacent country. A railway through the heart 6f 'the chief hop district of the king dom, also producing corn, timber, and hop poles, and communicating at its terinir us wiili 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 eau be no doubt if a direct railway should be made to Ityc,-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 Wrath, 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 objects are in view : .Ist. 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, Pocklington, Scarborough, Whitby, Pickering, Mallon, &c., and the ea-tent 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 Conning 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 arm) 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 lad session, from the Great North of England Railway to Borouglibridge, 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 or injury to property will be avoided. The saving of distance by this scheme will, on reference to the 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 Ripen 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.

This undertaking is projected by influential local interests to supply ren irements of the above important district; and a reference to 111 - map will show that it Will also complete the communication be tween , York Leeds, and the intermediate towns in the most diregt course with Londofi. 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 au expense as the stun named in the estimate. The length of the line will be but about thirty-nine miles ; and by means of this short link, in connexion wills existing projects from Nottingham, a saving will be effected between Lee is 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 through Doncaster, Tickhiil, and Worksop, to the terminus of the Nottingham, Mansfield, and ligligland Counties Railway, at Mansfield ; BANKERS, Bedford— Cambridge—)feSSra.

Commencing, at Cambridge, which has now become the traffic centre of the Eastern Counties, by the line of railway intended to br formed by that Company, this line will proceed to Bedford, there passing near Olney it will cross at or rear the Blisworth Station of the London and Birmingham Railway, where it will communicate with the Northampton and Peterborough line; it will then proceed 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 coarse through Aleester, the line will go di rect to Worcester, and thus terminate at the great centre of traffic for the mineral and ma:MAU:trim; districts of South Staffordshire, Shropshire, and North and South Wales. This proposed lino does 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 continent. Negotiations have been entered into with the Eastern Coun ties Railway Company, by which their support and co-operation will be ensured for obtaining the Eire 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. Power will be reserved to the Directors to amalgamate with any other existing or projecting Companie.l, or to vary the line.
