James Coppock, 3, Cleveland-row, St. James's John Bell, 2s, Craven-street, Strand Thomas Steed Watson, Wisbech The object of this roinpany is to afford to the town and port of Wisbech, the centre of the rich agricultural district of the Isle of Ely, the benefit of that communication .by. railway of which it is now en tirely destitute. This will be effected by the construction of .a railway to commence at or near the March station of the Ely and Peterborough Deviation line, proceeding thence to Wisbech, and thence to Sutton St. Mary, there forming a junction with either the East Coast or Grand Union Railway, or any other railway completing the communication to Lin colnshire, which may obtain _the sanction of the Legislature. A direct communication will thus be formed between the Metropolis, the Midland, the Eastern, and the Manufacturing Counties. The districts embraced by this undertaking are populous, and have a very considerable local traffic, the population of Wisbech, St. Peter alone, exceeding 10,000. The quantity of wheat sold in the market at Wisbech weekly averages 5,000 quarters, and . the arrivals of wheat from the port of Wisbech have in many instances been known very materially to affect the market in Mark-lane ; in addition to which there are extensive sales of other grain, flour, seed, wool, cattle, fruit, and potatoes, the whole of which is exported to the consuming markets ; the imports consisting of coals, timber, olleakes, bale goods, slates, sand, lime, and general merchandise. The return of the Port dues for 1844 exhibits 125,395 tons, and these dues are rapidly in creasing in amount. A great portion► of the merchandise must pass along this line, and cannot fail of yielding a productive revenue. The length of line is about twenty miles, and passes through a country having an even and solid surface ; thus, with all the advan tages of water and land carriage of materials, affording 'facilities which will render the works inexpensive, and insure their early com pletion. Added to these advantages, the line will form an integral portion of the main trunk line with the shortest and most diret route between Hull and London. ISy its connexion with the Ely and Peterborough Railway at March, a transit will be afforded through the Peterborough branch of the London and Birmingham to Bristol, and the south west of England, and through the Syston branch of the midlands, the north west of - England, with Liverpool, Wales, and Ire land. will also be placed in immediate connexion with Wisbech and 10 locality.

These contain together 40,000 inhabitants, and comprise an area of 160,000 acres of very productive land. of which quantity 60,000 !acres are knpwn by the name of Warp land, formed by rich alluvial deposit, and producing the most abundant crops. The quantity of potatoes alone grown within this distriet, and sold in the London and Ycirkshire markets,. exceeds 120,000 tong; and ural the total arlionnt of exports- and imports connected w ith its agricult interests exceeds 266,000 tons per annum. The.wholL of this.couotry is at present destitute of railway accom modation, Ijie necessity of the proposed Line is obvious, and has been already satisfaCtoillS , proved in Parliament; there •being no certain means whatever of public communication throughout the entire district. The effect of this is to render travelling either impracticabledly Oc- or attended with unusual expense and d ela y : and it has repeate curred that large quantities of the produce of the district, particu larly potatoes, have been spoiled for want of a ready and certain means of export. This applies equally to m any of t goods im ported. The value of the agricultural produce is in. consequence greatly diminished, without benefiting in any, way the consumer. • The proposed line. will furnish the means of conveying the agricul tural produce.to the principal markets of the manufacturing districts, in the North, and to the London markets in the South. In return f receive or the produce exported from the district, its population will coals, and all the other necessaries of life, at a greatly reduced cost. A very large quantity , of na tural and artificial manures will also be suoplied, by means of which the permanent value and productive powers of this almost isolated district will be greatly increased. The proposed line will bring the port of Goole within 21 miles of the port of Gainsborough, and within GO mileS of the port of Great Grimsby, which are the shortest practicable distances. This will Open to the manufacturing districts the readiest means of access to the German- Ocean, and to the northern parts of Europe; without incurring the.delay and heavy charges attendant upon the carriage and shipment,of goods to and from the port of Hull. port the rising of Goole, with its Entrance Lock, Steam Dock, and capacious Warehouses; affords readrmeans at all times for the tran sit of merchandise. Audits immediate connexion with the Aire and Calder Navigation, and with the Wakefield, Pontefract, and Goole Railway, just sanctioned by Parliament, must render it a great ens , porium for the manufacturing and agricultural produce of the king dom, and for exports to foreign parts. The proposed line will also form a valuable feeder to the London and York, and to the Grimsby arid Sheffield Railways ; and will sup ply all that now remains wanting for the accommodation of the nor thern and eastern parts of Lincolnshire. true 'extension from Goole to ,Selby will connect this line with the London and York, and also with the Leeds and Selby, opening therell.a.direct communication fe the north of England. This line Will meet with the support of the whole resident popula- Him of the Igle of AtchOlith and the surrounding neighbourhood, and of the principal landowners counseled. therewith. • It will pass through an easy country, almost en a levelovithont any tunnel or deep cutting. whatever,. It will not impede any navigation, drainage,. or warping, nor pre judice any residential property. From the traffic tables 'lately prepared, it is considered clear th at, after defrayirir , the' necessary expenses of working, the profit to the shkrehohlers• will not be less than ten.per. cent. The length of the mainline will be twenty-one miles, and of the extension ten miles ; both ofwhich, it is calculated, will be constructed considerably within the estimated capital.

SE9 3 .t:TARY—David Bartle, Esq. Since the formation of the Company for making this railway, and the allotment of the Shares for that part of the line between Chelms ford and Bury, the practicability, paramount importance, and supe rior advantages of its plan have been so unequivocally recognised by the Board of Trade, and by the Committee of the House of Commons for the railways of Essex; Suffolk, and Norfolk, that the ProviSional Committee have determined to now, at once, adopt the extension of theirline, originally projected, from Bury to join the Norwich and Brandon line at Thetford ; thsreby to complete the Ehortost and best communication between London and Norwich, in the direction of the old road, through all the chief central towns of Essex and Suffolk, and at the same time to open a very direct communication with the great trunk lines of the north and w. st. For these important objects, to e secured by an extension of only 12 miles, to connect Bury St. Edmund's and Thetford, the Provisional Committee propose . to'inerease the capital 250,0001., by the issue of 10,000 additional glares ; and, for full particulars of the entire plan, refer to their original prospectus. The Chelmsford and Bury line not having been projected in time to bring it before Prrliament In the present session in a substantive form, it has been but imperfectly, and merely incidentally, in opposing other lines, that its mei its could be at all brought under the notice of the Board of Trade or of the Committee of the House ; but the strong impression made, notwithstanding, in its favour, is obviously appa rent, both in the reports of the one and in the decisions of the other. The Board of Trade, in stating the considerations upon which it ad vised the rejection of the Norwich Direct line, report4d (March 4th 1845) that "It is necessary to advert to a railway called theChelms. ,rd and Bury Railway, projected, but not brought before Par Hamel,. be plan, and section , and traffic t ables of which have been submitted to the Board of Tra de. This railw ay appears to us to accommodate a more populous district than th at intended to be traversed by the London Norwich Dirvt, Railway.

TO THE PROVISIONAL COMMITTEE OF THE CHELMSFORD 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 Tean, 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 direct line 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 sand 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 transit from the Eastern 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 mark, that it is even more direct than the Churnet Valley as formerly projected to Tamworth, and is free from the formidable opposition of the landed interest, and the engineering difficulties consequent on the route by Racester and Marchington. It must be observed also that it is the only railway which has been brought forward by, and is under the control of, the landowners and manufacturers of the Churnet and Blythe Valley districts. The co-operation of most of the principal landowners, from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield, having been obtained, and there being no competing lines projected through that district, this portion of the line may be considered as secure.

Remington, Esq., C.E. The line of Railway proposed between Uttoxeter and Dudley has , .been undertaken at the suggestion of several influential parties, as combining (without being *Conipefing line`with any railway at pre sent made) all the advantages of several projected lines, with addi tions of no ordinary value. The town of Uttoxeter, in the Dove Val ley, is itself the centre of a rich agricultural district, supplying al ready the markets of Dudley, Tipton, Walsall, Bilst , m, and Wednes bury, with cheese, cattle, and agricultural produce, but by a very expensive and dilatory mode of Aransit. All the proposed lines communicating with Manchater,' 'London, and the Potteries, must necessarily pass to or hear Uttoxeter. Already the Chur net Valley, Derby and Stafford, Derby and Crewe, Tean, and Dove Valley, North Staffordshire, Manchester Direct Inde pendent, Leicester and Ashby. lines, of railway, project a station at Uttoxeter. Assuming either of these former, or some equivalent, to pass this will be the best route from Manchester, Macclesfield, the Potteries, Hull, Sheffield, and the north to the mineral districts of South Staffordshire, and to Kidderminster, Worcester, and South Wales. By the Leicester and Ashby lineoofach will communicate by its branch to Uttoxeter, traffic of neat part of the east of England will be available for Staffordshire and the west. Commencing at Uttoxeter, the line will be carried over favourable ground to Abbott's Bromley; thence to Rugeley, where it will fall into the Trent Valley Railway -Station, by Channock Chase, along the Rising Brok Valley, to Ilednesfoni, and thence by Walsall across the Grand Junction Railway, through Wednesbury and the mineral districts of South Staffordshire to Dudley ; there it, will join all those railways that will connect the Staffordshire coal field with Worcester, Ludlow, and Porthdynllaen on the south-west, ' Aberystwith, Merthyr Tydvil, Swansea, Hereford, on the west and south. In fact, it will unite by the nearest route the cast and west of England. The line will fall into and cross the Trent Valley, Midlands, and Grand Junction Railway at Walsall, and from Cannock afford direct communication with Wolverhampton (where it will run into the broad gauge railway) from Leeds, and Huddersfield, and the north and east of England. The population on the line exceeds 300,000, and the ordinary traffic arising from internal sources alone is sufficient to maintain the rail way, and afford more than smple remuneration to the shareholders. As a junction line (with the present immensely increasing public favour to railway travelling) it is scarcely possible to compute the amount of passenger traffic, but it must necessarily be very great. Since this line was registered, a company has been formed for ex tending it by a junction at Uttoxeter, to Huddersfield, Leeds, and Sheffield, by way of Ashbourn, and by this means immense mines of lead, iron, stone, and coal of Derbyshire, the products of the paint manufactories and barytes works at Ashbounte, Cromford, Sec., will be opened, and with those already in work, find a ready transit to Walsall and Birmingham, Dudley, and Wolverhampton. The in crease of passengers, attracted by ready means of conveyance to the romantic country ofDovedale, and the High Peak, will be necessarily very great. The copper, ore, lime, and coal, abounding in the Caldon and the' Rilxien mines, will be transmitted by this line to the manufacturing districts of Staffordshire, Warwickshire, and South 'Wales, and it will afford a direct communication between Leeds, Huddersfield, and Southampton, and it will also be the nearest route to Southampton from Manchester, via Uttoxter, by the London and Manchester Direct Independent Line, or whatever railway should ultimately pass between Manchester and London, as forming the shortest route to the metropolis, a line which, it is now admitted on all hands, must be carried. This Company reserves the right to raise additional capital to com plete the line from Dudley to or near the Droitwicb station, on the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway.

It is proposed, in the first instance, to make a railway from Callao, the chief port, to Lima, the capital of Peru, the great marts of trade, and general resort of the whole Peruvian nation ; and afterwards to lay down such lines on the coast of the Pacific as may be approved of by the Shareholders at a general meeting. The distance from Callao to Lima is about seven English miles. There is open ground all the way suited to receive the rails, the gra dient uniform, and no curves, with an abundant supply of water power. It is estimat<cl that the cost of this line will not exceed 50,000/. ; and, when it is considered that it will command the whole traffic of passengers, and the conveyance of goods between the chief port and the capital of Peru, it may fairly be assumed that the un dertaking will be one of unusual profit. Should the operations of the Company be confined to the line be tween Callao and Lima, no further portion of the capital will be called for than may be sufficient to construct that line ; and it the objects of the Company be not carried out, the whole of the deposit-money will be returned. .....

The promoters 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, hare 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 comvaratively 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 pf.Trp era, Erodsham, and Preston Brook, to Warrington, thence by Lymni and Stretford direct to Manchester. From a point on the main line, near Eredsham, 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 ra ilway 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, he 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 route, by Holyhead, to 'Mail& and will be, in all respects; by far the preferable channel of inter course and transit between Ireland and the great manufacturing dia. tricts of England. By the railways connecting Chester with Wrex ham, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester, and South Walas, 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 s 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 34 miles, saving in the one. case Is 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 be the precursor of another scheme, of no ordinary importance—namely, to render Chester an efficient port for large vessels. This subject was entertained by Sir John Rennie in 1835, and sub sequently, in the same year, by the late Mr. Chapman, who wrote an able report upon the capabilities of the river Dee. It was again investigated, 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 Chtstsr, 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 eight hours every tide, both at springs and neaps ; and the till 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 combine the two objects in one 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 fbe this railway, whether taken in connexion with the proposed docks, or as standing alone, combining as it does all the advantages of any 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 moans of direct and independent communi cation between Manchester and the port of Chester. The line has been carefully examined. There are no difficult earth-works to be encountered ; on the contrary it will be cheap. and of easy formation. Power is reserved to the Committee to de viate from the proposed line in the vicinity of Manchester, should ulterior arrangements render it expedient.
