THE BRISTOL AND DOVER DIRECT JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY, connecting Bristol, Wales, and the important Western and North-western Districts with Kent and France. (Provisionally Registered.) Capital 800,0001., in 32,000 Shares of 251. each Deposit 21. 15s. per Share In pursuance of the new Standing Orders of the House of Lords. This line is projected for the purpose of affording a direct communi cation between the two great ports mentioned in its title, and to effect this purpose it is proposed to commence at Devizes, which by other projects is about to be placed in connexion with Bath and Bristol. It will then pass in a south-easterly direction through or near and giving a communication to the populous and important towns of Lud gershall, Andover, Whitchurch, Basingstoke (where the Southampton Railway has a station), Wiliam, and Farnham to Godalming. Here it will form a junction with other lines, which will complete the communication to the Reigate station of the London and Dover Rail way ; or, should it be necessary, in consequence of the failure of any of the projected railways in this locality, the present project will itself be extended to Dorking and Reigate, at which latter point the Brighton Railway is united with the Dover. A prospectus, containing the names of a powerful Committee and the officers, will be ready in a few days ; and in the meantime fur ther particulars may be obtained and applications for shares received at the temporary offices, 6, Liverpool-street, Broad-street, London.

This Line, which, subject to the decision of the Gauge Commis sioners, will be constructed on the Broad Gauge principle, will com mence at the Worcester Station of the Great Eastern and Western Railway, and, proceeding by Redditch and Henley-in-Arden, will touch Warwick and Leamington, and end at Rugby, the terminus of the Midland Counties Railway and of the proposed Rugby and Hunt ingdon Junction Railway. It will communicate with Droitwich, Studley, Alcester, and Stratford-oil-Avon. At Warwick, it will unite with the Birmingham and Oxford Junc tion Railway, the Warwick and Cheltenham Railway, and the Lon don, Warwick, Leamington, and Kidderminster Railway ; and at Rugby, with the London and Birmingham, the Midland Counties, and the projected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railways. The country through which it will pass, is thickly populated, and of the richest description. It presents no engineering difficulties, and from its population, its manufactures, and agricultural produce, it possesses sources of sueh abundant traffic as to render it highly re munerative to the capitalists. The object proposed is to complete the line of railway communica tion between the Western, Midland, and Eastern portions ;of the Kingdom, and a glance at the Map of England will show that this will be effected in the most direct manner by the present line ; touch ing, as it will, at one of its termini, a railway running direct from Swansea to Worcester, and at the other, the projected line from Rugby to Huntingdon—from which point a railway communication has been already provided. By means of this Railway, the manufactures of all the towns and the agricultural produce of the country contained within its range, as well as the Ports on the Eastern and North-Eastern Coast, will have opened to them a direct and unbroken communication with the great and densely-populated mineral fields of South Wales, as well as the markets of the Northern portion of the principality. To the population along the line as well as to the Midland and Northern portions of he kingdom, this undertaking will present the' most direct communication with those towns of fashionable resort— Leamington and Cheltenham. To the inhabitants of Leamington and Was wick, it will open the most direct communication with the city of Worcester and South Wales, whilst to the inhabitants of Worcester, it will open the markets of the Eastern portions of the country. The Shareholders in the several railways proposed to be joined or intersected, will have a preference in the allotment of shares in this undertaking. No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the Act is obtained, and power will be applied for to allow interest at four pounds per centum on all calls from the time of their respective payments, and to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscription.

The line of Railway intended to be constructed by this Company will commence at or near Norton Bridge (a station of the Grand Junction Railway), in the county •of Stafford, and proceed from thence by Eccleshall, Offley, Norbury, Forton, Newport, Donnington Wood, Oaken Gates, Priors Lee, Stirchley, Dawley, Madeley, and Iron Bridge, to Coalbrook-dale ; there, crossing the proposed " Wor cester and Crewe Railway," it will pass along the slope of Wenlock edge, by Rushbury and Eaton-under - Haywood, to Wistanstow, in the county of Salop, where it will run into, and form a junction with the " Shrewsbury, Hereford, and North Wales Railway." ' The line will traverse a rich mineral district, and will have a secure and extensive traffic by the carriage of coal from the Shropshire coal-field, to a depot proposed to be formed at Wistanstow, for the supply of South Shropshire, part of Radnorshire and Herefordshire, and also from whence it will be conveyed by the " Hereford, Shrews bury, and North Wales Railway," into Montgomeryshire and the neighbouring counties, where coal does not exist. It is impossible to calculate the extent to which this traffic may be carried, as by the direct railway communication thus opened between the Shropshire coal-field, and the important manufacturing towns of Newtown and Llanidloes, the price per ton will be reduced one-half at those places, and the flanne l manufacturers, now depend ing upon water power, will, by the cheapness of coa l , b e enabled to employ steam, and to extend their trade in proportion to the great demand which exists for the Welsh flannels, in preference to any other. The importance of this subject will have its due weight with those who so often witness the bad effects upon the trade, caused by the stoppage of the mills from an insufficiency of water. A considerable amount of tonnage iSnow incurred by the Shrop shire ironmasters,f or the conveyance of lime-stone from the neigh bourhood of Much Wenlock to the furnaces, by several transits of land and water carriage, whereas the proposed railway will convey it direct into the heart of the works, and at one-third of the expense. By its junction with the " Grand Junction" and the " Hereford sheffie Hull, and Shrewsbury" Railways, this l ine will form ld, York a direcand t communicaand tion between Liverpool, Mancheste r, Swansea and South Wales. As a junction line alone (connecting as it will such important rail ways), a large passenger traffic may be depended upon, but when it is considezed that the centre of the line passes through a densely populated mining district, and the remainder through a thriving agricultural neighbourhood, it will be obvious that a sufficient local traffic exists to pay a highly remunerative interest on the amount of capital required to be embarked. The line, which will not interfere with any property of an orna mental or costly character, will not exceed 46 miles in length, and will be constructed at much less than the average cost. Such important local co-operation has been secured, that no oppo sition is anticipstcd or can be sustained against the measure. The liability of the Shareholders wi be limited, by the Act, to the amount of their subscription to the capital stock ; and power will be applied for to allow interest at the rats of four per cent. per annum on the amount of the deposit, and upon the further calls, from the date of each payment until the opening of th. line ; and the first deposit being paid, a further call will not be made until the Act Parliament shall have been obta!ned. ale to be olitOted from tht Maps of the. lin,' prwdetuses, local agents, alzo the brotcrs, Secretary, the hulicitors, th an I Co., Angel-court, Throgm orton-street, London ; Messrs..

The Managing Committee of the Leicester and Tamworth Junction Railway Company have determined upon making an extension from their line, commencing at or near Market Bosworth or Twyeross, and running from thence by cr 'near Atherstone and the Whitacre Junc tion of the Midlands (late Birmingham and Derby) Railway to Bir mingham. In the allotment of shares, due regard will be had to the interests of the scrip holders in the Leicester and Tamworth Junction Railway Company. The surveys are in pro:.:ress, and the line Is re ported as easy of construction, and free from engineering difficulties. The twofold advantages offered by this project give it a manifest superiority over every other scheme which has yet been devised for traversing this rich and extensive, but hitherto unintersected portion of the Midland Counties. The Leicester and Tamworth Junction, as originally projected, brings, by means of the Trent Valley Railway, the important manufacturing town. of Leicester and the Midland and Eastern Counties into immediate communication with the mining districts and wool markets of Staffordshire and Shropshire, the great towns of Liverpool and Manchester, and the intervening ;localities ; whilst the projected extension affords the shortest practicable railway route - from Leicester to Birmingham, and the western and south western counties of England. The saving in distance between Lei cester and Birmingham will be seen by the following scale : By Rugby By Tamworth Saving Leicester to Liverpool • • .... 147 ..... • • 117 ••••• • • • 30 Leicester to Manchester •• • • 134 ••• • • ..... 104 ..... 39 Leicester to Birmingham •• • . 49 ..... 35 ........ 14 The construction of the Birmingham extension in conjunction with the Leicester and Tamworth Railway gives this project an evident advantage in point of expense over any independent line from Lei cester to Birmingham; and, taking the inequalities of the country into consideration, a snore direct line does not appear desirable or practicable, and the saving which which will be effected of more than half the expense which must attach to the construction of an inde pendent line from Leicester to Birmingham is a most important consideration. Application for Shares may be aaTressed to the Secretary at the Company's offices, 4, Coleman-street, London ; to the solicitors ; to Messrs. Aston and Scott, Throgmortdn-street, and to Messrs.

The object of this line of Railway is to complete the chain of coast communication, and form a connexion with lines already established or projected with reasonable hopes of success. It will commence at or near the city of Limerick, and taking a nor therly direction, proceed through the counties of Clare, Galway, Mayo, and Sligo, terminating at Sligo, by a junction with the Sligo and Ennis killen Railway, and accommodating on its route the important cities and towns of Limerick, Ennis, Gort, Loughrea, Athenry, Monivea, Tuam, Ballinrobe, Castlebar, Westport, Foxford, Ballina, Kilalla, Swineford, Streamstown, and Sligo, which town being connected with the north, east, and south, by the different lines through Enniskillen, London derry, Coleraine, Belfast, Armagh, Newry, Dundalk, Drogheda, Dublin, Wicklow, Wexford, Waterford, Cork, Killarney, Valentia, Tralee, and Limerick, the establishment of this line will cause Ire land to present a completeness of locomotive communication which no other country in the world enjoys. The country through which the proposed line travels is most fertile in mineral and agricultural products ; it embraces many extensive coal fields, whose advantages it will extend to all parts of Connaught and Ulster; and intersecting, as it does, so many metropolitan lines of railway, it will develope those advantages in an equal degree to the province of Leinster. I The lead, iron, marble, and slate works on its route, will be rendered available to the most distant parts of the island, and perhaps not the least advantage, in a national point of view, will be the establishment of an intercourse between the population of the extreme north and that of the extreme south, as well as placing the trade of, and communication with, Scotland, within the easy reach of all towns of any importance in Ireland. Added to this the cer tainty that on the completion of the projected southern, eastern, and western lines, the noble natural harbours on the Atlantic shore of Ireland will become the British depots of American traffic, and most probably the established packet stations for postal communication between the two countries, it is impossible to over-rate the value of this truly national projection. The counties which this railway traverses abundantly supply the English markets with cattle, pigs, &c. This line, communicating with s i o li i s u po ani t - io p n ort o s f will,aff som or e d id tl e i ft e o g f r t e h a e te e s x t to f n a t cil o i f ti w es hi f e o h r inthaeyshibepfpoirmng formed t from the fact of upwards of five hundred fairs being held annually in its immediate vicinity , a mon g them, the fair of 13allinasloe, ac knowledged the greatest for sheep a nd cattle in the British islands. trade, It has been ascertained that the country presents great engineering facilities for the construction of a railway, and in communications which have been received from the landowners along the line, the greatest anxiety is manifested for its completion. The subscribers will be held liable only to the extent of their first deposits until an Act of Parliament is obtained, and afterwards only to the amount of their subscriptions. Power will be applied for in the Act—and in the meantime Is hereby given to the Committee—to increase the capital, if necessary ; to alter or abandon any part of the line, to make branch lines, or also to nominate the first directors of the compa n y . . _,„ be moment ^— enter into arrangements with any other comp an y or companies and The Parliamentary contract and subscribers' a g r ready for signature on payment of the deposits. r 1 from them a eon lines, and will thus contribute to, and flirt-Oise traffic.

The object proposed by this railway is, as well to supply the wants of the district through which it passes, as to complete the chain of railway communicatioa between the eastern and midland counties and the western district, including the whole of North and South Wales. _ _ . . . . • The country embraced by this line is of the richest description, and thickly populated. By means of this, and the existing and projected lines of railway, the whole of the ports in the eastern and north-eastern counties, in cluding the manufacturing city of Norwich, and towns of Leicester, Nottingham, Sheffield, Leeds, and the whole of Yorkshire will be brought in direct communication with the mineral districts of North and South Wales, the salt district of Droitwich, and the river Severn. The promoters of this line submit to the public, as a most import ant consideration, the abating of those causes of loss and inconveni ence which, along the line of country over which this railway will pass, are experienced from water carriage being from necessity at present a principal mode of transit for heavy goods and merchandise, and which,i n the winter season, is productive of the most evil con sequences to those engaged in commerce. A manifest advantage to the Shareholders will be the extent of t raffle which will be secured and appropriated by the present undertaking, in lieu of that which hitherto has been engrossed by the more dilatory course of water carriage. As a public advantage to the inhabitants generally of the above-mentioned districts, the promoters submit that the equa lisation in prices of the produce and merchandise which the opening of this line of railway is calculated to produce is of the high est importance, and one of the principal benefits which this and other similar undertakings are alone capable of producing. The proposed line will commence at Rugby, the terminus of the Midland Counties and Trent Valley Railways, and also of the pro posed Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railway, and proceed from thence near to the towns of Leamington, Warwick, and Alcester, and end at the City of Worcester. At Worcester this line will form a junction with the several Welsh railways, the Shrewsbury, Wor cester, and Crewe Railway, and the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol verhampton Railway. At Warwick it will unite with the Birmingham and Oxford Junc tion Railway, the Warwick and Cheltenham Railway, and the Lon don, Warwick, Leamington ' and Kidderminster Railway. And at Rugby with the London and Birmingham, the Midland Counties, and the projected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railway. To the inhabitants of Rugby as well as to those of the Midland, Eastern, and Northern Counties this line will afford a direct coin munication with the fashionable towns of Leamington and Chelten ham, as well as the whole of the Western Counties. To the inhabitants of Leamington and Warwick it will give a direct communication with the City of Worcester and North and South Wales, now so much needed. And to the inhabitants of Worcester, in addition to providing the nearest route to London via Warwick, it will be an outlet to the Eastern Counties and ports, and afford great facilities for the increase of the manufactories now carried on in that city. . . The whole of the country has daring the present month, Augusi 1845, been most carefully surveyed by the engineers, and they report it to be free from engineering alificulty, and well adapted for a rail way, and the provisional Directors entertain no doubt that the line will be made under the average rate of expense incident to similar undertakings, and, from the statistics in their possession, that the traffic will afford an ample return for the capital invested. The line will not interfere with any ornamental property, and the landowners are favourable to the undertaking. The Shareholders in the several Railways proposed to be joined or intersected will have a preference in the allotment of shares in this undertaking. No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the Act is obtained, and power will be applied far to allow interest at 4/. per centum on all calls, from the time of their respective payments, and to limit the liability of the Shareholders to the amount of their sub rcriptions. The Directors reserve power to themselves to amalgamate with any existing or projected line of railway ; to vary the route ; to make all desirable extensions; and to increase the capital as may be advisable or necessary. Prospectuses, with a Plan, will be published in a few days, and may then be obtained on application to the several solicitors, and to any of the following share brokers, viz., Messrs. Peppercorne and Co., 2, Old Broad-street ; Messrs. Preece and Evans, 39, Loth bury, London ; Messrs. Payne and Freer, Leicester ; Messrs. Alston and Gage, Liverpool; Messrs.

This short but very important Line of Railway will commence at the nearest point on the Trent Valley Railway to the City of Lich field, and proceed through a rich and populous country, by Shenstone, Sutton Coldfleld, and Erdington, to the town of Birmingham. The length of the Line will be only about sixteen miles, and a glance at the map will suffice to show the very numerous advan tages which this Railway offers. The projected " South Union Rail way," from Manchester, joins or falls into the Trent Valley Railway just below Lichfield, and, proceeding along the Trent Valley Line, via Tamworth and Rugby, will form the shortest and most direct route from Manchester to London, but will leave Birmingham on the west, which can only be reached by the circuitous route through Tamworth, a distance of twenty-five miles. The proposed Birmingham and Lichfield Railway will effect an ex tension of the South Union, North Staffordshire, and other projected Railways, from Lichfield in a direct Line to Birmingham, and thus save no less than nine miles in the twenty-five, and constitute the shortest and')ait ne between Manchester and Birmingham yet de vised. As to the returns to be expected for the capital embarked, it is sufficient to mention, that in addition to the very large income aris ing from the local passenger and goods traffic (the latter of which is very great, as most of the agricultural supplies of Birmingham, the emporium of the Midland Counties, and its densely populated neigh bourhood, are derived from the vicinities of, and must pass along this Line), every passenger direct from Manchester to Birmingham must necessarily proceed along the projected Railway, should either of the lines from Manchester to Lichfield be made. This line will also form the nearest route from Derby and the North to Birmingham. The Capital proposed to be raised is 300,0001., in 15,000 Shares of 201. each. A deposit of 21. 2s. per Share will be required to be paid upon the allotment, to the credit of the Directors with the Bankers of the Company. No call will be made until the Act of Parliament shall be obtained, and power will be taken in the Act to allow Interest at 41. per cent. per annum, upon the amount of each call, from the date of payment until the opening of the line, and Subscribers will not be answerable beyond the amount of their Shares. The Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract, which shall contain a clause empowering the Directors to amalgamate with any other Railway now formed, or to be formed, to extend or make Branch Lines, or transfer, mortgage, or dispose of the present un dertaking for the benefit of the Company, as they may deem proper, will be ready on the day fixed for the payment of deposit, and will be required to be executed when the bankers' receipts are exchanged for certificates of Scrip ; and the shares of any Subscribers making default in the execution of those deeds within the time limited, of which fourteen days' notice will be given, will be absolutely forfeited. No application for shares can be attended to, unless accompanied by a reference to a member of the Provisional Committee, one of the Solicitors, Agents, or a Banker. Forms of application for shares, copies of the prospectus, and a map of the line, may be obtained at the temporary offices of the Company, 60, Moorgate-street, London ; from the Solicitors ; from Local Agents; from Mr. B.

The geographical position of Worcester has caused its adoption as the point where the broad guage trunk lines of the west are to have a :.,ommon terminus. From Oxford the Great Western Company have lecided on constructing a line of rail :—another project under the pa tronage of the same powerful direction is now before the public, uniting Worcester with Warwick ; and, that the broad gauge will be carried from Worcester into Wales, and to the Irish packet stal ious on that coast, is now no longer doubtful. This undertaking will com plete a series of great avenues of iron-road, whose ramification.. from Worcester will render every part of the kingdom directly accessible from that city. Passing up the Severn Vale, where it will disclose a succession of picturesque scenes, it reaches Stourport, and proceeding thence through Kidderminster, arrives at Bewdley. This district is one of the chiefseats of our carpet manu factures, and in the towns here named, exclusive of the intervening districts, upwards of 30,000 persons are located. Leaving Stourbridge a little to the east, the line is taken to Bridgenorth, a town enjoying an active inland trade, and possessing woollen manufactures and iron works, that give employment to a population of about 15,000. Pass ing through or near to Much Wenlock, Broseley, and Madeley, from which place there will be a branch to Shrewsbury, the line ascends Colebrook Dale, and approaching in its course Wellington and Werth enters Whitchurch. From this central place a branch will be formed to Norwich via Stoke, forming a junction with the Liverpool and Crewe Railway. The trunk line will continue from Whitchurch, and passing through or near Malpas, have its northern terminus in the city of Chester. In estimating the probable amount of revenue which the Worces ter and Chester Railway may be expected to yield, many sources of profit present themselves, such aro the dense popidation located along the length of the Severn Yale, and the enriching works of industry in which they are engaged. Amongst the latter may be mentioned the China manufactories of IVercester, , the iron, coal', and earthen ware works at Broseley and other places ; the agricultural produce brought to Stourport market ; the inexhaustible fields , of coal anti mines of iron ore in the vicinity of Colebrook Dale, Iroubridge, and the districts to the east of Shrewsbury generally. In calculating the cost of construction unusual advantage.' are also obvious. The line traverses a district affording levels of several miles in extent, and with a surface peculiarly favourable. Th,t resi dent population, disappointed by the postponement of promised pro jects, have warmly espoused the present, and the labouring popula tion being familiar with mining operations, will be found better qualified for the execution of railway works here than in many other localities. —....--. . As a link in the railway network of England, or as auxiliary , to existing or projected lines passing in various directions, few, schemes hitherto proposed appear to afford greater inducement for investment, or a wider range of accommodation for traffic and' travelling.
