Rugby, Derby, and Manchester IL ilway is a direct line from London to . Manchester,. corning from London to Rugby, along the London and Birmingham line, and prose: ing from Rugby by Hinck ley, through Market Bosworth, and Ashby-de-la-Zonch, to Derby, thence to AshbOurne and Macclesfield, and along the Macclesfield • and Stockport and Stockport and Manchester Railways, into • 241ancliesier. Branches to Leake and Buxton are in contemplation. The principle of this railway is to obtain a direct through line be tween some of the most important districts in the kingdom with tl:e least possible amount of new railway, and consequently the smallest expenditure of capital. It will also establish the shortest direct communication between Derby and London, Sheffield and London, and between all the towns en the North Midland Railway and London. The Manchester, Derby, and Rugby Railway w'll open a direct communication between Manchester and Derby, and will consider ably shorten the distance between Manchester and Nottingham and Manchester and Leicester. • The line from Derby to Rugby will establish the direct communi cation from that town to London, which has been so long considered desirable by. the inhabitants. The same will apply to Sheffield, when the Sheffield and Chester field branch of the North Midland Railway is made. THE GREAT ADVANTAGES of the Rugby, Derby, and Manchester Railway over the other pro-' sects into Manchester, among others, are— First, That there are only seventy-five miles of railway to be made, in place of one hundred and eighty-nine. Secondly, That it is a more direct line from London to Manchester than even the proposed direct lines. Thirdly, That it interferes with no existing railway property or vested interests. Fourthly, That it passes through a district rich in manufactures, egrkulture, and minerals, but which—more especially as regards its agricultural produce, and a conve,ient system of intercommunication for the conveyance that agricultural produce, to supply the large itianufaCtUring towns in the vicinity—has been hitherto left totally Without railway communication. Fifthly, l'htt it passes through the towns in its route, in place of avoiding them. Sixthly, That the whole line of railway from Rugby to Manchester Will be completed and in working order within ten months from the Passing of the Act of Parliament. Seventhly, That the maps, plans, estimates, and other documents required by the standing orders of Parliament, will be lodged with the Parish Clerks, the Clerks of the Peace for the Counties, and the Parliamentary offices, on the 10th day of November next, being twe n ty days within the time required by the regulations of Parlia luent. The Report of the Engineer of the Company is already completed, find will be made public in a few days, upon which a further and full Prospectus, with the names of the Provisional Directory, will be Published.

Silk Manufacturers, Leek This line will commence at the terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and passing by the Rudyard reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the Churnet Valley to Conseil, thence close to Cheadle, and Teen, and by Uttoxeter, Bagots Woods and Abbots Bromley down the Blythe, to a point on the Trent Valley Railway, near Lichfield, communicating there with one of the pro- Posed lines from Dudley and Walsall. A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direst tile for the London and Manchester traffic; uniting those two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railways. It will also completely accommodate the local traffic and manufactures, and open several extensive coal fields and some thou , and acres of wood land for the supply of Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the kingdom. Together, too, with the pro- Posed line from Derby to Crewe, it will afford a tra nsit from the - tiastern Counties and Derby to Manchester, and give every accom modation to the Potteries. This line is, in its principal features, much the same asthat already aPproved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the Churnet Valley Company—will be scarcely 47 miles in length, and Passing through the centre of the district, does not interfere with the Grand Junction, or any other existing railway. It is material to re -that it is even more direct than the Churnet Valley as formerly Projected to Tamworth, and is free front the formidable opposition of The landed interest, and the engineering difficulties consequent on the roate by Rocester and 31archington. It must be observed also that i t is the only railway which has been brought forward by, and is Under the control of, the landowners and manufacturers of the Churnct 44 .: 1 Blythe Valley districts. _The co-oper a tion of most of the principal landowners, from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield, having been obtained, and there being ; 10 competing lines projected throug h that district, this p ortion of the 4411 e may be cans:dered as secure.

The whole of the traffic upon the South Wales line passing to the Eastward of Chepstow will be carried on this line ; added to which the coal and mineral traffic from the Forest of Dean (which, front till Eastern side to Gloucester, has been estimated upon authentic documents and Information, at upwards of 30c,000 tons ; and from the Western or Lydney and Chepstow side the same amount of traffic may safely be calculated upon), amounting to 600,000 tons per an num (the produce of the Forest alone), must be carried upon the line, independent of the local passenger traffic and an extended trade in the produce of the Forest, which will necessarily follow the facilities offered by the proposed railroad. The revenue from this source alone will give e very handsome di vidend upon the capital to be expended, which is expected will not exceed three-fourths of the intended capital. It is proposed to make branches to tly, Collieries and Iron Works in the Forest, to the present or a n y new Ports w hich may suggest themselves on the Severn ; and to make the Sliver Wye, at Chep stow, the port of foreign export , wher e v essels o f a n y size can enter free front the dangers and difficulties a ttendant u p on the navigation of the Severn, consequent upon the rocks and shifting sandy In that river. It is intended to build a bridge across the Severn at Gloucester, which will in no way obstruct the navigation; and the proposed Gloucester and Abcrystwith Company will no doubt be ready to join Ors Company in the expense, If they obtain their Act. The cost of the intended line from Chepstow to Gloucester, including the bridge at Gloucester, and the one over the River Wye, at Chepstow, to join the South Wales, with branches to t h e Collieries, Iron Works,l and the Severn, is not expected to exceed 450,0001., but it is intended to provide a capital of 600,0001. to meet any contingencies which may arise, A reference to the map will show the self-evident importance of this line as essential to the perfecting the great project of the South Railway Company (wlin hare obtained their Act of Parlia ment for a ad from Flshguard and MiliOra Beyen to Chepstow) n ith the principal railways of the 101114dori, connecting Gloucester, and making it direct road to London, via Cheltenham and Oxford, for effecting which projeCta are now before the public with most influential support.' The line is twenty-six miles in length, has no engineering difficulties; the gradients and curves are extremely good, and works light. It may with very great confidence he ilaaPlUd, that there is scarcely a short line of railroad in the kingdom which Biers greater advantages to the Shareholders titan the present. ygo, vis on will be made in t he Act of Parliament which will by ppilo for in the next Session to limit the liability of tine 'Sh4renol4.er to the amount of his Shares, and to allow tour per cent, on ilke calls.

The promottrs of this Railway, encouraged by the favourable sup port which has been given to the project, and In compliance with various recommendations they have received, ha-e determined upon the addition of a branch to Birkenhead, which, although it will manifestly tend to the advantage of the Shareholders and the public, will be attended with comparatively little additional outlay. The project will still retain its chief characteristic of a direct railway, and by its connexion, near Warrington, with the Grand Junction Company, is sufficiently comprehensive, without resorting to a com plicated system of branch lines, or materially couflicting with the in terests of existing companies. The line will commence at the city of Chester, and proceed by way of Trafford, Frodsham, and Preston Brook, to Warrington, thence by Lymin and Stretford direct to Manchester. From a point on the main line, near Frodsliam, a branch will be taken to join the Chester and Birkenhead Railway, so as to unite Manchester in the most direct manner possible, with the docks now being formed at Bir kenhead. As Manchester, from its geographical position, is the centre of rail way communication between Scotland and the most populous dis tricts of England, so Chester, from a like cause, is the great centre of railway communication between the capitals of Ireland and of Eng land. To connect these two points by a direct and independent line of railway must, therefore, be of the utmost importance, not only in a local point of view, but to the whole commercial intercourse of the country: • This line will be the most direct rottte, by Holyhead, to Ireland, and will be, in all respects, by fa' the preferable channel of inter course and transit between Ireland and the great manufactui lug dis tricts of Eng,lind. By the railways connecting Chester with Wrex ham, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester, and South Wales, this will be the nearest route from Manchester to the south western parts of England, and to the minerals of Monmouth and Glamorganshire The communication with Bristol, Gloucester, and Exeter will be speedy and direct. On reference to the map, it will be seen that a very considerable distance will be saved by this line, as compared with the present circuitous routes by Crewe and by Birkenhead ; the former being 52 miles, and the latter 46 miles, while the proposed line is only 31 miles, saving in the one case 18 miles, and in the other 12 miles, besides the serious inconvenience, loss of time, and expense of passing through Liverpool, and crossing the water at that place. It is confidently expected that this line will he the precursor of another scheme, of no ordinary importance—namely, to render 'hester an efficient port for large vessels. This subject was entertained by Sir John Rennie in 1835, and sub sequc ntly, in the same year, by the late Mr. Chapman, who wrote au able report upon the capabilities of the river Dee. It was again nvestigated, In 1837, by Sir John Rennie and Mr. George Remington, and the practicability of forming a good navigable channel for vessels of large burden, together with docks at Chester, was then fully and clearly established. The entrance channel would commence at Dawpool. which is easy of access (and infinitely preferab e, in point of access and safety, to the docks at Liverpool or Birkenhead), for vessels of large burden, during eighours ever tide, both at springs and neaps ; and the sill of the lock would be sufficiently low to admit vessels drawing 20 feet water to enter at all tides, This railway, therefore, in connexion with the proposed docks, • will render to Chester and Manchester incalculable advantages. To the former it will restore the proper position natural to so important a city; to the latter it will give another outlet, by sea, to the ma nufacturing districts, free of the heavy port charges, dues, and risks to which the produce is now subject: It has not been thought advisable to tombine the two objects in sue company at present, but should it be found requisite, the two may hereafter be amalga mated. Merits of no ordinary degree, therefore, may fairly be claimed fbr this railway, whether taken In 001411eXien with the proposed docks, eras standing alone, combining as it sloes All the advantages of may other lines, with this great addition, that it will be the high road to the most convenient outport of Manchester, and will be quite inde pendent of any associations or influences that might tend to oppose the growing desire for a means of direct and independent communi cation between Manchester and the port of Chester. The line has been carefully essaininen. There are no difficult earth-works to be encountered ; on the contrary it will be cheap, and of easy formation. I'ower Is reserved to the Committee to de; viate from the proposed line in the vicinity of Alitlielleater, should ulterior arrangements render it expedient.

SHERIDAN, secretary. •` The 'Committee, when Pppointed in October last, had much diffi culty to contend with, in consequence of the shortness of the period within which the Company, then only projec.ed, had to be formed— the capital to be subscribed for•- the surveys to be made—and the other steps to be taken, so as to bring the undertaking before the Board of Trade, and properly prepared for the opposition which there was every reason to expect hi Parliament from other com panies, whose preparations were then far advanced. _ . " Having prepared and issued the prospectus of the Company, your Committee Immediately proceeded to look for the necessary profes sional assistance, and were fortunately able, after some little delay, to secute the services of gentlemen of experience; well qualified for the duties fo'be 'performed ; and your Committee feel it due to *hem to state that they devoted themselves zealously to the business, and their exertions have conduced, in a great degree, to the success of the undertaking. A deputation from the Committee proceeded to London, and with the assistance of the solicitors there, established a highly in fluential London Committee, who cordially co-operated with the de putation; and, by their continued attention, have most effectually promoted the interests of the Company. " The Committee, in many communications with the Board of Trade, strongly urged the merits of their case, but were disap pointed in their expectations, on finding that Board d tennined to report, as they afterwards did, against the construction of that part of the line between Newry and Armagh, under the erro neous impression that the Dublin and Belfast Junction Railway (then also under their consideration) would afford sufficient accommodation to the town of Newry. Your Committee, however, being convinced that adequate accommodation could not be so af forded, and that the interests, not only of the town of Newry, but of the public in general, required a direct Railway from Newry to Armagh, considered it their duty to proceed in Parliament for the entire line, according to the original prospectus; and, notwithstand ing the report of the Board of Trade and the powerful opposition of rival companies, the propriety of the course taken has been fully established by the result of the contest, in tke progress of which it was distinctly proved, to the satisfaction of the Committee of the House of Commons, that a due regard to the public convenience de manded the entire railway projected by the Newry and Enniskillen Railway Company, and that the undertaking would he remunerative to the proprietors, taking into account only the existing traffic be tween the termini, and without giving credit for the increase which might fairly be expected from the construction of other lines of rail way, and for some of which Acts have since been obtained. " Your Committee feel bound to state, that, at great personal inconvenience, a deputation from their body, consisting of Mr. John Boyd, Mr. Lyle, Mr. Jennings, and Mr. Irvine, proceeded to London, where the three last-mentioned gentlemen remained from their homes and business, actively engaged for the advantage of the Company, during a period of several months, and until the success of the measure was secured. In mentioning the sen - ices by indivi duals the kind assistance and untiring exertions of that lamented Nobleman, the late Marquis of Downshire, must be especially noticed, as well as the great advantages the Company have derived from the support and personal attendance of the present Marquis, anti the in defatigable exertions, both in and out of Parliament, made by the Viscount Newry and Monte. The Committee regret, that from the short interval allowed by Parliament to elapse between the passing of the Act, and the first general meeting of the Company, they have been unable to get in all the accounts, so as to be in a situation to present a detailed statement of the funds, and that they can, at pre sent, only state, that after discharging such accounts as have been rendered, and making paying to the engineers, solicitors, and Par liamentary agent, on account of their claims, they have a balance in hands of over 24,0001. ; and recommend to the incoming Directors that they immediately proceed to ascertain and settle the outstanding liabilities, and, with as little delay as possible, pre pare and submit to the Proprietors their detailed account. " YOur Commiftee have felt the necessity of maintaining a cordial intercourse between the English and Irish Shareholders, who are mutually interested in the success of this important work, and ar rangements have been accordingly entered into for continuing a London Committee, which cannot fail to have the effect of securing, by an Interchange of advice and co-operation, the best interests of the Shareholders at large. "Your Committee have, further, to report that the necessary investigations are being actively proceeded with, under the directions of the engineer, for the construction of the line; and that, having regard to the present state of the funds of the Company, the Com mittee do not think that it will be necessary to make an early call upon the Proprietors. " The election of thirteen Directors and two kuditors, for the en suing year, is the business tor which the first ordinary meeting has been called, pursuant to the Act of Parliament." Resolved—Oii the motion of Mr. Joun HANCOCK, seconded by Mr P. MURPHY:- That the report now read b 2 adopted and printed, and circulated among the Shareholders. London, August 21, 1845.

The Directors of the Eastern Counties Railway Company, observ ing that, in the Advertisements of the Chelmsford and Bury Railway Company, it is stated that their particular line is supported and sanctioned by the Eastern Counties Railway Company, have to an nounce that no such support or sanction has been giver. The Company's engineer, Mr. Robert Stephenson, has been in structed to examine the entire district, and to advise upon the line of railway to be constructed through it, which the Eastern Counties Railway Company must sanction as most conducive to public inte rest. • By order of the Board, A BULKELEY, secretary, Offices, London Terminus, Aug. 12, 1845. T HE DIRECT LONDON AND.HOLYHEAD AND PORT DYNLLAEN RAILWAY. (Provisionally Registered). The public is respectfully infonned that a Company is in course of formation for establishing a direct communication between London and Holyhead and London and Port Dynllaen, thereby effecting the shortest possible communication between London, Birmingham, and the centre of England, and Dublin and the whole of Ireland On reference to the - Railway Map of Ireland it will be seen that most of the lines in that country converge either at Dublin or Wick. low, the former being nearly in a direct line with Holyhead and the latter with Port Dynllaen. This undertaking will therefore unite in one main line the whole of the Irish traffic to this country; and when the system of railway communication in Ireland is complete, will doubtless obtain a very large proportion of the American passenger traffic which 'will then pass by Port Dynllaen and Wicklow to Va. lentia Bay as the nearest point to the United States and our North American colonies. The present line is in effect nearly identical with that recom mended by the Government Commissioners in their reports on the communication between London and Dublin, and which was then surveyed with much care ; making allowances, however, for the al tered circumstances that have since occurred by the increase of railways in this country, and availing itself as far as possible of ex isting or contemplated lines. It is intended to proceed by the London and Birmingham Railway to Birmingham, and thence by one of the now projected lines to Shrewsbury, or another course will be by the London and Binning ham, Trent Valley, Trent Valley and Shrewsbury Railways to the same point, where this railway commences, and proceeds in the most direct practicable course to a point near Balla, where the line forks ; one branch proceeding to Bangor, where it unites with the Chester and Holyhead and North Wales Railways, employing the former line to Holyhead, and thus avoiding the enormous expense entailed by crossing the Menai Stotts ; the other branch proceeding through a dist)let rich in slate, stone, minerals, &c., by TieUtadoe to Port l)yntlaen, where it will also unite with the 'North Wales Railway, which will prove a valuable adjunct to the present ptoject. The importance of the undertaking, not only to the treat com panies to which it will prove so important a feeder, but also in a national point of view, as effecting a most Considerable saving of time and expense on the route to Dublin and the coast of Ireland, are too great to be oterrated, and too obvious to be required to be insisted upon. It is clear that the traffic must be unusually large, and from the surveys made there appears no doubt - That the line can be constructed at an average cost. . _ Full particulars, with the names N A most influential Provisional CoSimittec, • puhlialled aMoon as a correct estimate of the r-quisite capital i# obtained, andju the meantime no applications for 'shares CAll be received.

Under his favour, we cannot help opining that it is something more. Beneath the rich vein of humour that runs through the book the discerning eye will perceive a series of moral lessons, which are not the less valuable for th e sport i ve gu i se i n w hi c h they are conveyed.
