This railway will connect the east and west coasts, and form a direct route from the porta of Liverpool, Fleetwood-oz-Wyre, and Lancaster, to Neweastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedbergh, and Kirkby Stephen, and thence by the most practicable line to New castle. It will run nearly parallel with the old coach road, which has hitherto been the principal passenger route from Lancaster to Newcastle. It will readily be conceded that great benefits will flow from a direct railway communication between the coal-fields and mining districts of Durham and Northumberland, and the important towns and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, and Lancaster. The entire length , of the line is rich in mineral productions—coal, slate, limestone, marble, and other elements of a great local trattle abound, and cannot fall to make this one. of the most remunerative projects of the day. A. considerable saving of distance between the important tones en the termini is effected ever any existing or pro jetted scheme. It will be reserved to the Committee ef Managenseat to make such alterations In the line, or the anyarat ef capital required, or other wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the Interests c. :the Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. on the calls from' the passing ef the Act to the opening of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only.

The first object of this lino is to connect the town of Birmingkant Coventry, and . Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest rents and to supply as important link of conunanication between the town of Spalding aid the eastern coast, aid the western and midland districts. Commencing at the Spalding station of the Xerivieb, Dereitana, Lynn, and Holbeaek Railways, the Hie will proceed by Boar*, Witham, Castle Bythara, South Wytham, and Wymondham, to a point on the ilyston and Peterborough line of railway near Melton- Mowbray, this forming, by the Syston and Peterboreugh and Mid land Counties Railway, an almost direct route to Leicester, and thence to Coventry and Birmingham by the proposed Coventry, Nuneaton, Leicester, and Birmingham Railway. The projected line will form the most direct conmannicatien be tween the eastern and midland districts of the kingdom, and will, by means of the proposed lines across the county of Leicester, via Bar ton-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lines's, Norfelk, Shropshire, and North. Wales, nearer to each other by many allies than any other line of railway. It will form, with ether projected railways, an almost direct line across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwieh, on the east, to Aberystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west. The entire length will net exceed thirty miles. There Is no tunnel ling, cutting, or embanking of any importance necessary; the line from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve stiles, is Tory level, and may be constructed at a small emit. It will seenre the advantages efrallwaTee sarrianicaties to a tract of country at present destitute of this Accommodation, besides opets. ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of tk weans of transit. The central midland districts have felt greatly the• want of direct eommunication with the coast; and this line will at *nee supply the deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire. It will afford a transit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei eestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon up/ A y from the north at high prices : it will also secure tke advan tages of an unlimited supply of limo from the Leicestershire works, to the agricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only supplied at very high rates; and, in return traffic, the midland dis tricts will obtain the ad va n ta ge of a direct transit for the stock and agri eu ltural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk. the eastern coast for th e m i dland counties, and co S n env e ee c aral t r ed espt b ro y l th e in st e dlines of railway con verge at Spalding, which i s the Riverconnected b y Welland with the German Ocean. The proposed capital will be sufficient for the construction of the necessary works and every subsequent expense ; and the income derivable from the traffic in passengers between Birmingham, Co ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston, the trans port of corn, cattle, and other produce of the great agricultural districts through which the line passes to the principal consuming districts, and of coals, lime, and staple commodities for the inland districts, will be sufficiently ample to warrant the outlay, The Parliamentary surveys have been commenced, and are now for shares, in active progress, and contracts have been entered into which en sure sufficient time for compliance with the standing orders.

This line of railway is intended to commence at the Camden-town station of the London and Birmingham Railway, and to terminate at the extensive quays and warehouses of the East and West India Dock Company. The necessity for this undertaking is sufficiently evidenced by the numerous schemes projected to effect a similar purpose—namely, the connexion of the manufacturing districts with the port of Louden and the river Thames. The exports from this country are daily increasing, and the con sumption of imported produce has extended and is extending in the interior beyond all previous estimate; the facility, therefore, of re ceiving and dispatching goods from the port of London into all parts of the country by direct railway communication, whereby the ex pense of cartage may be avoided, is obviously of immense im portance. - The frequency of the complaints from the manufacturing districts that the port of London is scarcely available to them, owing to tile difficulty and expense of transit to and from the railway stations, has caused the projectors of this undertaking to consider the best mode of remedying the evil which exists, and the present plants intended to effect this object, and to afford increased facilities fbr goods traffic between the interior of the country and the port ipr London. The expense of forwarding goods between the Camden-town station of the London and Birmingham Railway and the shipping In .the river, now so excessive, may be reduced from 5 0 on most descriptions of goods, and still afford ample to 70 per sent. remuneration this Company ; and as the trains will proceed to the quay oft e docks, and discharge their lading into the vessels or warehous s direct, and hi like manner the wagg ons will be laden from the vessels or warehouses wititout• intermediate change of conveyance, a la i /e saving will be effected ; while the ris k of dama g e, breakage, d pilferage will be prevented. The vast accumulation of capital in London, and the continual increase in its imports, render it the most extena p iv arti e marketated in in the world, and these advant a g es will be most fully participated manufactur i n g districts, by affording them a direct communica tion with the ad van t age of being t t io 'e n ith the port, which, able to draw supplies from thence almost at an hour's notice, cannot h u t be productive of great general good, and some a large traffic for this railway. .Although at present 5 connexion with the Birmingham Railway alone has been secured, it is anticipated that the Directors of all the existing and projected metropolitan railways from the manufactur ing and mineral districts may be induced to avail themselves of this direct mode of communication with the river below the bridge, and thus largely increase the resources of the Company. The income from passenger traffic it is probable will be very great, as, in addition to the daily Ideal traffic between Camden-town, Is lington, Holloway, Hackney, and the City, this railway will enable partiesfrom a distance to proceed direct to the principal place of em barkation for foreign steamers, as well as enable persons from the suburbs, through which the line passes, to proceed at once, and with. out the delay and expense of passing through London, to the Bruns wick Wharf; which is the place of departure for most of the exam. aion boats and foreign steamers. The cost of the line will be moderate, from the absence of engl; nearing difficulties, and no tunnels being necessary throughout its course. It will avoid all expensive house property, and passing between Islington and Holloway, skirting Hackney and Victoria- park, and that reaching the West ludia Docks, from whence a com munication with the centre of the City will be had by means of the Blackwell Railway. Power will be taken in the Act to allow four per cent. interest On the paid-up capital, as usual, • until the time of opening the railway.

This line has been projected for the purpose of forming the most direct communication between Birmingham and the Midland Coun ties, and Me important and rising port of Aberystwith and the sea coast of Wales. It is intended to commence at the junction of the Welch Midland and Stour Valley Railways (both of which have projected lines to Birmingham), between Kidderminster and Bewdley, and proceed from thence through Cleobury Mortimer to Ludlow, where it will form a junction with the Worcester aid Portdyallaen, and Sridgnorth, Ludlow, and Wolverhampton Railways. From Ludlow it will follow the line of the present mail road, along the Valley of the Teme to Knighton, from which place it is intended to throw off a branch to the Craven Arms, to run into the Shropshire Mineral Railway, which has its terminus at that place. The lie will proceed item Knighton to Llanidloes, where it will join the projected Manchester and Aberystwith Railway, and proceed along that line for the re mainder of the distance. The use of all projected lines being tins sought for, the part to be made will net exceed sixty miles ; and as surveyors are already upon the line, the plans, Sec., will all be ready to go to Parliament in the ensuing session. _ _ The advantages of the present Bee over any other projected rail way between Birmingham and Aberystwith are :—That it is the most direct route between the respective termini; that it passes through a district at present unprovided with railway accommoda tion ; Shot by it and the Birmingham, Stamford, aid Boston lines, a regular chain of railway communication is opened between St. George's Channel and the German Ocean; and by the Great Eastern and Western line a communication is also opened with Tannouth, Norwich, and Ring's Lynn ; that it will open the slate mines of Cardiganshire ' and the limestone of Radnorshire to Shrop shire, and the while of the midland counties ; while,' on the ether hand, by the branch from the Craven Arins,.the coals of Shropshire will be brought into Radnorshire, Montgomeryshire, and Cardigan shire, where that article does not exist, at little more than one-third of its present cost. From these and other sources of traffic it must be obvious that a high rate of interest upon the capital embarked may be depended mien. The line throughout the whole distance meets with the most lade ential local support, so as to ensure its complete success. There are ne engineering difficulties of any magultade, and io ornamental property will be !evaded. Should the atmospheric pinci pie be folly tested and be found to answer, it will be adopted on this line. The responsibility of the shareholders will.be limited to the *meant of their subscriptions, and pwerwill be taken in the Act to allow In terest at four per cent. on the calls. The Committee reserve the usual power to amalgamate with any ether existing Company or Companies, to limit or vary the line, as to them shall seem mist expedient, in order to carry out the objects of the Company.

Ia submitting this undertaking to the public, the Promoters — A numerous and highly influential class—have r st t ru i influenced en by ead .t n h o e less by the general facilities presented for its co fa vourable character of the country through which i t is intended to W pass, a s t h tan n di b r y e convictionstthe connecting it line s great between gre North lo and Southalandgeneral import anceWales, Shrewsbury, !Lichfield, Tamworth, Derby, and Leicester, and the Midland and Eastern Counties generally. To effect this desideratum, the formation of a new l ine of 19 or 20 co mmunicating with the T ren t T a l ley with the Shrewsbury, Wolverhamp iorg Shrewsbury, Wolv er h ampton, and R m ail iles wa o y nly at w L i i l e l h b fl e o required; d, and tin ton Dudley and Birmingha m , South Staffordshire Junctio n Railwa y s, at Shi ffnal. It is a remarkable fact that Shrewsbur y , the outlet of North Wales, has been hitherto altogether disregarded in the range Of ex isting railways, particularly towards the east, the nearest being at the distance of 28 miles. The town of Shrewsbury, now 95 miles from Leicester by road and railway, will, by means of this and the ether projected lines, be brought within 65 miles. When the ordinary passenger traffic, and the vast transit of cat tle, together with the coal, mineral, and airicultural diked. to be traversed, are considered, it is obvious that the sonstraction of this line will insure to the Company a most lucrative return for the capitsl employed ; and that, as an investment, it mist rank among the most advantageous of modern undertakings, whilst it will im part advantages of the highest importance, both to England and the principality. The immense droves of Welsh and Shropshire cattle will at once be conveyed into the important cattle mark,* of Derby shire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Lincolnshire, Noriblk, and Suffolk, whilst,ln return, the agricultural produce of those coun ties Will be sent into the densely-populated localities of Dirininschatu and Wolverhampton, and the Staffordshire, Shropshire, and Welsh ironworks. The several projected railways passing from Worcestershire and Herefordshire in the direction of Chester and Liverpool, will be im portant tributaries to the revenue of this line, which will be still further augmented by its joining the Grand Junction, near to. the Spread Eagle Station, at a short distance from Wolverhampton. - The facilities which will be aff rded to visitors to Matlock, and the rest of the picturesque scenery of Derbyshire, and of lietth Wales and Abery4with, as well as to travellers via Holyhead to Ireland, will still further conduce to the generat utility of the project.
