The title of this line sufficiently and correctly explains the object I of the undertaking. The Birmingham terminus will be placed in communication with all the other railways having a station in that town, and wsli be brought as near as practicable to its centre. Proceeding thence in a northerly direction, and on the west side of the Lichfield road, it will pass within a short distance of Sutton Coldfleld, and to Lichfield, at the latter of which places there will be a tation in communication with the projected Walsall lines. Thence crossing the Trent Valley, near King's Bromley, it will pursue the course of the Blythe Valley, or by or near to Abbots Bromley to Leigh, where it will leave the Blythe Valley, and by a short cutting reach the Teen station on Reeling on'e London and M a nchester line at the junction of the Cr ewe braneh, or by a junc tion with whichever of the projected lines to Manchester may be adopted by Parliament. The entire length of the new line to be made will not exceed thirty-four miles, and the whole will be carried over a most favour able country—two-thirds being a water-level. Sections of a great portion of the line have been made, and the en tire Pariamentary survey will be completed by the 9th of October. This railway will afford a route from Birmingham to Manchester eleven miles - shorter than -- by any existing or projected line. It will also give the best and nearest line between Huddenfleld, and Bit , ming,ham. It will also furnish a nearer and more direct route from Birming ham to the Potteries than any line made or projected by several mile, assuming any of the projected Pat, ry lime to have their ter mini at Colwich, on the Trent Valley, or at Stafford, on the Grand Junction Railway ; thus giving to Manchester, and a.so the Pot ' terles, the shortest, easiest, and most direct route to Birmingham. It will also give the nearest line between Huddersfield and Birming ham and Southampton. This railway crosses the projected Leeds and Huddersfield and Wolverhampton Direct Railway. In the Blythe Valley a station will be placed, and communication effected, so as to afford to Birmingham the shortest route by many miles, with Leeds, Huddersfield, Sheffield, and the northern parts of En,land. In allotting shares every legi timate preference will be given to the landholders on the l:ne. It is obvious that the projected line wlll afford an ample return to the shareholders.

The Committee of Management hereby give Notice that they have COMPLETED the ALLontENT of SHARES, and that the usual letters are this day issu.,l. In the arduous duty of deciding on claims unprec•:dented, it is believed, in their number and respecta bility, the Committee have been obliged to give a preference to ap picants loc:tily interested, or likely to bring to bear for tha Company a large share of legitimate influence. The numerous persons, with undoubted claims on the score of wealth and social standing, whose applications have either been passed over or cut down, arexequested to accept this reason as the Committee's apology. - The Committee desire to add, that while attestations of.pahlic support are daily reaching them from the most influential quarters, the engineering preparations, under Mr. liraithwale, are so far ad vanced, that the project cannot fall to be placed before Parliament in a manner the most satisfactory to the Shareholders.

This line of railway, although only about twenty-eight miles in length, is a most important one, as forming a connecting link to several existing lines, and across a district at present destitute of such accommodation. It commences at the Thirsk station on the Crest North of England Rallway, and proceeds in a direct line to Pickering, where it will form a junction with the York, Scarborough, Pickering, and Whitby lines. It is supported by the various corn panics having lines of railway running into Leeds and Thirsk, and by means of this proposed line a distance of twenty-two miles will be saved between Thirsk and Whitby, and abo.tt sixteen between Thirsk and Scarborough. It would certainly be the grand route to Whitby, Scarborough, and Burlington, and the intermediute towns of Helmsley and Kirkby-Moorside, so badly provided for at present propertproperty.with railway accommodation , fro m all p laces w est or no r th of T hirsk, and it would necessarily open out a traffic, for which the present means of communication arc altog ether inade q u ate. The landowners on the line are f ew in num,er, and are friendly to the project, which presents n o gre at engineering difficulties. It in terfereisiot with to i n ) t O cr existing th railwayftnyornamental property, and every care will be taken It will at once appear unnecessary, with iespectto this line, to enter into details of passengers and goods traffic. They cannot for a mo ment be questioned ; and when by this railway so much easier access is made between the important seaport of Whitby - and the fashion able resorts of Scarborough, Burlington Quay, and Harrowgate, as well as the populous and important towns of the West Riding of York shire and Lancashire, with which it will form an uninterrupted com munication, it cannot fall to be highly beneficial to those interested in this undertaking. Until the Act of Parliament shall be obtained, the affairs of the proposed Company will be under the control of the Committee, of whom five are to be a quorum. Application for shares must ba made to the solicitors of the Com pany (of whom prospectuses and forms of applications may he ob tained), accompanied by a reference either to some member of the Committee, ene of the solicitors, or one of the fo'lowing share , brokers—viz., Messrs. Boyd, 4, New Bank-buildings; and Robert Johnston, Esq., 5, Shorter's-court, Throgmort •n-street, London; Messrs. Risdales, Myers, and Bailey, and James Hill and Co., Leeds ; Messrs.

This railway is proposed to commence at Uxbridge, proceeding thence to the Southall cation of the Great Western Railway, and then through Heston to Hounslow, there meeting one of the proposed lines to Hounslow from London. Leaving Hounslow the line pro. eeeds through Whitton, Twickenham, Tcddington, and Hampton, to Kingston, and, crossing the Thames, joins the Kingston station of the South-Western Railway, whence it will proceed to, and terminate at ,Epsom. The towns and places through which the line passes, or most imme diately affects, contain an aggregate population of about 200,000 persons. The importance of connecting two such towns as Uxbridge and Brentford with Kingston, Croydon, and Epsom, three of the largest market-towns in Surrey, between which the present agricultural traffic is extensive, is too obvious to require comment. A glance at the map will at once show that the communication now proposed is not only judicious, but, in order to satisfy the requirements of the important and populous district involved, is actually imp ,rative. It will afford to Uxbridge and the towns in Hertfordshire north of it, with wh'ch it will he connected by proposed new lines, direct transit to the Great Western, Southampton, and Portsmouth Railways, and by the established lines, southward, to Shoreham, Brighton, Dover, Rainsgate, and all the south and south-eastern parts of the kingdom, avoiding the loss of time and great inconvenience of going round by the metropolis. So also as to Brentford, Hounslow, King ston, and Epsom—it will afford to them access to the Great Western, London and Birmingham, and Northern and Eastern lines; and by this line. in connexion with one proposed to Hounslow from the me tropolis, and the other propose 4 and established linos north and south of it, easy access will be afforded to Hampton-court, Epsom, and other favourite places of resort. There can be no doubt, therefore, that the passenger traffic alone will be sufficient to pay a very large dividend on the outlay. This undertaking presents the additional and important advantage of competing with no line at present established ; on the contrary, it will be the means of connecting and feeding the several lines enu merated, and several others that are projected ; and the engineer reports that it passes over a particularly easy country, and will be capable of construction at about 16,0001. per mile ; and the land owners on the line who have been seen, are favourable to the un dertaking. The length of the line will be about 18 miles. And the Committee are happy to announce that the surveys are in such a forward con dition as to justify them in stating that they will be enabled to comply, in all respects, with the standing orders, so as to enable them to apply for the Act in the ensuing session. Application for shares must be made in the usual form, to the solicitors of the Company, Messrs. Watts, Galsvvorthy, and Gals worthy, to the Secretary, at the Offices, to whom also all corn• Inutile:along from parties locally interested should be addressed ; also to the following local solici tors, Henry Norton, Esq., Ux t br; , tge C.

By this Company it is proposed to supply railway accommoda tion, through an independent channel. to all the principal towns In Buckinghamshire, and to many In the other counties through which the projected line is to run, hitherto destitute of this now indispen sable mode of transit. The project known by the name of " The Buckinghamshire Rail way and Oxford and Wolverton Junction" is announced in their pro spectus as being under the direction and superintendence of the Lon don and Birmingham Railway Company, as their lessees in perpetuity, receiving four per cent, on the outlay, with a conditional arrange ment as to the surplus profit. From this agreement it must be obvious to every one that the monopoly of the London and Birmingham Company, which it was a principal object to destroy, is more strongly secured than before, and the profits which would accrue to an independent line, after payment of the 4/. per cent. interest. is virtually thrown into their hands. In addition to this, the arrangement to make use of the termini of the London and Birmingham Company, together with a considerable portion of their line, reduces the Buckinghamshire Railway in fact to a mere extension of the older ccmpany, and confers on the latter the means of absolutely and entirely controlling the traffic. and conse quently the profits, of the projected line ; so that the reservation as to the surplus profits in truth amounts to nothing. The adoption of the projected Buckinghamshire Railway by the London and Birmingham Company proves their consciousness of the necessity of a railway communication through the country proposed to be traversed; and to prevent a continuance of their monopoly, and to secure both to shareholders and to parties locally interested the benefits of an independent line, the present Company has been formed, and has met with the strenuous support of many landed pro prietors in the counties through which it will pass, who have hitherto withheld their co-operation tram the Buckinghamshire Railway Company for the reasons enumerated. The line will proceed through or near to Uxbridge, by the Valley of Chalfont, to Amersham and Wendover, and thence to Aylesbury, by Winslow, to Buckingham. It will take a course from thence through Brockley and Banbury, by Leamington and Warwick, to Birmingham, having the advantage of being the shortest route hitherto proposed between Birmingham and London.

This railway is intended, in conjunction with the existing lines, to farm a direct communication between the English and Bristol Channels, thus affording' the means of transit by railway from the English Channel to the Irish Sea, as well as completinga thegrand trunk lines from the north, north-west, and north-east- parts of Great Britain. The proposed line of railway will commence at or neat the harbour at Lyme Regis, In the county of Dorset, and proceed 'tarn thence. through Lyme, Up-Lyme, Axminster, Chardstock, t.7lSzti, and Ihninster, am( terminate at Taunton, in the' county of 'Somerset. where it will join other important lines, and be the means of transit for passengers and traffic to the most important places in the locality. es well as throughout the kingdom. The length of the line will be about twenty-six miles. and, from the preliminary survey which has been taken, it appears there are no extraordinary difficulties, nor will it interfere with ornamental: property. The support of the principal lafidowners and other Influential parties on the line has been secured ; and taking into consideration f the short and easy communicat I with the coast of France a w l th e Channel Islands, and the acco dation fur shipping of ipnsideraWe tonnage which it is propose 6 effect by the extension o f the present harbour, the sharehol rs cannot fail to del ive a permanent and still increasing advantage from the vast augmentation of traffic. by passengers and merchandise, as well as from abroad and coast wise, as to and from the whole interior of the kingdom, with which the line will be Connected by existing and progressing railways. The beauty and situation of the place as a resort fur visitors is well known ; and on the plane now proposed for facilitating the inter course with the interior, and connecting the two opposite Channels. being carried into effect, it is beyond all question clear, that the, trade and mercantile Prosperity of the port, as well as the extent and importance of the town, And 14zForicvm,La..„ _____ __. . tb,, nr.caocie.4.44o44Mitisiretterative trade in lime, manures, fish, .. . . _ agricultural produce, particularly from the principality of Wales,. which must oeces , . , arily tend to render this undertakin; of tha greateit advantage to the whole locality of the several important towns. through.wh!ch it will pass,.

This harbour is accessible with winds which prevent entrance into arty other ports in the Great Western Bay (being the only one in the whole of that extensive bay without a bar), and its importance, evetiVin Its present state, may be estimated by tile following extract from Mr. Roberts's " History of Lyme Regis," giving the substance of a report of a Committee of the House of Commons : LYME REGIS II Alt BOLT R. " A Committee of the House of Commons was engaged in in quiries respecting the repairs required, and entered • into ex aminations as to considering the pier a national work. The re sult was that this harbour was the best in the bay ; that in spring tides, at high-water, it is open to vessels of 120 to 150 tons, and with draught of 14 feet; that notwithstanding the circumstances of its being a dry harbour, it is in some respects preferable to the bar harbours on the coast, some of which no vessel dare run for with the wind blowing violently on the shore, accompanied with a high sea ; for, should a vessel strike on the bar at the entrance of a harbour, she might pass over the bar and sink in deep water ; but when a vessel strikes the ground at Lyme, she must be under circumstances of shelter and comparative st•eurity, being then protected by the outer most part of the Cobb, unless her draught of water be very great. " Round the outermost part of the stones at the end of the eobb. which break the sea, there is, at low water, 4pring tides twelve feet. It has proved the means, in many inatances, of saving vessels with their crews, which would otherwise have been inevitably lost. " The regu'arity of the cattle trade between the west of Eng land and the Islands of Guernsey and Jersey (a trade in time Of war of great importance), depends on the peculiar position Of this harbour, which makes it accessible with winds that prevent entrance into other ports of the West Bay."—Report of Committee. During the late war, the Government contractors far supplying' the army in the Channel Islands, selected thi z port as the best for the shipment of cattle. In the month of November, 1815, one vessel from this harbour made four passages to thoseislands when vessels from other ports could not go to sea. Many ships from India and other places, wind-bouad in the Channel, have been compelled to land their passengers at Lyme, no other port being accessible during cer tain contrary winds. Malty lives and vessels have been saved, even in the present state of the Ilartwur , an d, when enlarged, its , , value fu in a national point of view, The saving in distance by the Land's-End, to or from Br istol, will be several hundred miles. a l s an a land ing ha rbo ur a t Loyfn refuge,e, - of going round and independently of this large saving in distance, the certainty of the proposed communication, by avoiding the chances of delay th r ough contrary wilds, is perhaps still more important in a mer cantile light. The capital intended to he raise d is 800,0001., divided into 40,000 shares of 201. each. A deposit of 21.25. per share must be paid, upon allotment, and no call will be made until the Act of Parliament shall be obtained. authorising the construction of the works. The liability of the shareholders will be limited, by the Act, to the amount of their respective subscriptions to the capital stock ; and power will be applied for, to allow interest at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum, on the amount of the deposits, and upon the further calls until the opening of the line. Power will also be applied for in tho Act, and in the meantime power is given to the Committee of Ma nagement to increase the capital, if necessary ; to alter or abanden any part of the line ; to make branches therefrom ; or enter into ar• rangements with any other company, or companies. The Petite. mentary contract and the subscribers' agreement will be required to • be duly executed when the bankers receipts are exchanged for scrip Certificates, of which due notice will be given ; and the deposits paid by parties making default in the due execution of the Parliamentary contract and subscribers' agreement, within the time limited by such notice, will be absolutely forfeited.
