London : The Union Bank of London. Hereford and Brecon : The National Provincial Bank of England, This undertaking will, in connection with existing and projected lines - of railway, bring into immediate communication with Birming ham, and the whole midland and Northern Districts of England, the great mineral fields of Monmouthshire, as well as those adjoining Car diff and Merthyr Tydvil ; at the same time it will furnish to the im portant agricultural counties of Hereford, Worcester, Brecon, and Monmouth, a ready channel for the transmission of their produce to the dense population inhabiting the mineral districts of South Wales. ' The object of this company will be very materially aided, first, by the existing line from Cardiff to Merthyr: and, secondly, by the lines intended to be formed by the Welsh Midland Railway Company. The line will commence at Newport, and will thence proceed northward by Pontypool and Abergavenny to Hereford, where (in that direction) it will terminate. From Abergavenny a branch will extend eastward to Monmouth, and another westward to Brecon. From Brecon al extension will be made to Merthyr, to, join the Toad - Vale Railway, ending at Cardiff. Thus will be established, in addition to a free intercourse with more distant localities, a complete chain of railway communication amongst the important towns and districts just enumerated, and which are now wholly nnprovided in that respect. The portion of the line extending westward from Monmouth will also promote the most direct passenger route that can be adopted from Monmouth to Carmarthen, and the South of Ireland. CIRCULAR NOTES AND LETTERS OF CREDIT. r 111-IE LONDON and WESTMINSTER BANK _JL has commenced the ISSUE of CIRCULAR NOTES, for the use of travellers and residents en the Continent. These notes are payable at every important place in Europe, and thus enable a tra veller to vary his route without inconvenience ; no expense is in curred except the price of the stamp, and when cashed no charge is made for commission. For the convenience of the public, these notes may be obtained e:ther at the Head Office of the London and Westminster Bank, in Lothbury, or at the Branches of the Bank, viz. : I, St. James's-square _ I 4, Stratford•place, Oxford-st ree t 213, High Holborn - - -- 13, Wellington-street, Borou g h ___ _ The proposed line is intended to commence at a point on the Great North of England Railway, near Northallerton, taking part of the branch line to Richmond, now before Parliament, and diverging from it a short distance east of its terminus, thence following the south side of the Tees Valley, up the Greta, over the line of the ancient Roman way to Brough, forward within a short distance of Kirkby Stephen, through the rich valley of the Eden, by way of Appleby, and to join the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway near to Clifton, south of Penrith. Diverting from this line, southward of Stainmore, a branch will proceed through Ravenstonedale to join the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway between Orton and Borrow Bridge. The direc tion of the proposed line is north-west, following the mail-coach route from York to Carlisle, and involving the least sacrifice of distance in connecting together the two great trunk lines of rail way, the eastern and western sides of the island. . The distance from Northallerton to Penrith will be sixty-one miles ; of this fifty-five miles will be new railway, which, with the branch to:Orton, seventeen additional miles, will form a total distance of seventy-two miles. The capital will be 1,500,0001., in 30,000 shares of fifty pounds each. One-third-500,0001.—0f which is placed at the disposal of the Lancaster and Carlisle Board, to be appropriated amongst the parties interested in that Company. The revenue will be derived from pas sengers travelling from all the eastern districts of the island south of Darlington to Scotland, and from the counties of Durham and Nur- 87, High-street, Whiteeh - apel By order of the Board, JAMES WILLIAM GILBART, General Manager.

The above Establishment combines first-rate accommodation with economic principles,—comprising spacious Dining and Club Rooms, with separate Smoking Rooms, also private Rooms for Select Parties. Joints, Steaks, Chops, Soups, White Bait, &c. as usual. Ordinaries on Sundays at Two and Three o'clock precisely, Beds constantly well-aired. N.B.—Business conducted also (on the above principles) at the Bengal Arms Tavern, Birchin-lane. Ordinary from One to Five, daily. In addition to the main line and extensions above indicated, the Directors prop.se to place themselves in immediate commtmicatieu with the proprietors of the most important works in the several dis tricts traversed, in order to fix the situation and the course of the minor branches, which will be necessary to complete the comprehen sive scheme of communication intended ; asd to this object regard has been had in fixing the capital of the Company. The investigations which have been made en the subject of the traffic fully justify the conclusion that the undertaking is eminently calculated for_ the advantage and convenience of the public, and that it will prove a most profitable investment of capital. In conclusion, it may suffice to observe that it is well known that the scheme of a comprehensive system of inland communication In the districts in question has already engaged the serious attention of the tribunal appointed by the Legislature for the initiatory examina tion of railway projects; and the Board of Trade has, in its report on the Tring and Oxford schemes, fully recognised tho great im portance and necessity of the chain of communication of which the present undertaking will form a material link in the following man ner :—" The accommodation of Herefordshire, Worcestershire, South Wales, and the important districts lying to the west of the present Fines of railway will evidently, at no distant period, require not only a wide gauge railway along the southern coast, to place them in com munication with London, but also a narrow guage railway, to place them in direct and unbroken communication, through Birmingham, with the manufacturing districts and the great railway system of the rest of the kingdom." The engineering capabilities of the course of the line and exten sions have been ascertained to be excellent, and the capital proposed will be amply for the construction of the 125 miles of railway intended to be formed.

This project, whether viewed as a means of private investment, or as a great public undertaking, presents advantages seldom equalled. Forming a junction at Stourport with the London, Worcester, and South Staffordshire Railway, the proposed Railway will pass up the valley of the Severn, and through, or in the immediate neighbour hood of, Bcwdley, Kidderminster, Bridgnorth Much Wenlock, Madeley, Iron-bridge, Coal Brook Dale, to Shrewsbury, and thence near Market Drayton, Audlem, and Nantwich, to Crewe, where it will terminate by a junction with the Manchester and Einnin,gham, and Grand Junction Railways. Besides giving the above exceedingly populous and thriving places the benefit of a direct communication with each other, aid railway accommodation to a district now entirely destitute of it, the proposed railway will also establish the shortest route from the North of England, Manchester, Liverpool, Ireland, Holyhead, North Wales, and Chester (through Shrewsbury), to Worcester, Cheltenham, Gloucester, South Wales, Bristol, Bath, Exeter, Falmouth, and the south-western counties, and moreover will form the high-road into the centre of Wales from the northern and midland counties. Thus, the manufactures and minerals of the extensive and rapidly increasing iron works, and collieries of Shropshire, and the salt works of Cheshire, as well as the immense agricultural produce from those counties, the Valley of the Severn, Ilerefordshire, and the centre of Wales, will reach the markets and ports of Lancashire. Worcester shire, Gloucestershire, Devonshire, and Cornwall, by a rapid and cheap transit. It is considered that the present traffic between the vtdoks towns RlVhodirt - nao •-a , ,,,katou, Lll,l e sau '0 siv 43,7 Ul/ 4 , I.lft. wlrrisrove one of the most desirable investments in the kingdom. As the line from Stourport to Shrewsbury will traverse the Valley of the Severn, the works in that district must of necessity be light and easy; the coentry also between Shrewsbury and Crewe is well adapted for the construction of a railway.

We confidently and positively assert that our system will effect a greater saving to the public In the article of dress, than has evert et be once tested to be universally encouraged. We are aware that 1845, been realised ; we rely not alone on its novelty, for it only needs to there is a general Impression that lowness of price necessarily in volves inferiority of quality ; but we unhesitatingly say, that with the facilities fortunately at our command, we can secure lowness ef prices with every other concomitant advantage. The Establishment of SAMUEL, BROTHERS, is the first Ore may say) in the world which has originated the judicious plan to which publicity is now cause, while it realises the m ost san g uine hopes of the economist, it g i v en—a plan which cannot fa i l to be hailed with admiration, be will be a source of pride to its Inventors, based as it is on the most enlightened views, and conducted as it will be upon the most honour able principles. We will now state in what the novelty consists, though simple in its details, it Is most beneficial to the public in its operation, and is neither more nor less than this. —Every customer will be enabled pon the p of the material to ascertain the value and quantity of material required for every variety of garment.

Tha peculiar advantages of the system o• SAMUEL, BROTHERS, may be practicably exemplified as follows: The average quantity of Cloth for a Coat worn% yards, suppose that selected be Bs. per yard, the material ld cost 145., our charge for making serviceable Coat completed in the best style will be made to measure for 325. Again, suppose the Cloth selected to be 12s. per yard, the material would cost 215., our charge would be 20s. for making and trimmings, and thus a first-rate Coat made to measure alO. com pleted in the best style will be obtained for 415., few, if any, charge less than 509 er 525. for the same article. Tho same saving will be effected in every description of Clothing. The extensiveness of our stock enables us to offer Cloths at from ss. to 21s. per yard. Our charge for making and trimmings for Cloths under 10s. per yard is 18s. and for the higher price Cloths 20s. perior fitting garments, that they We have entered into arrangements with the first manufacturers of Wool Dyed Black Cloths for a regular supply, the wear of which we greatest attention will be paid can guarantee to be superior to anYYet made, its they are finished a s Well as style, of all articles.

Time works Wonders is the title of a new fire-act comedy, from t'ie pen of Douglas Jerrold, produced at this theatre on Saturday evening, with the most triumphant success. The title is a happy one, and no less true than happy. Time has indeed worked wonders, for time has in this comedy given us a sterling drama—one that will become a stock play, which will last not only for a season, but for all time. Douglas Jerrold has given us a work " that the world will not willingly let die," and Mr. Webster has produced the very best play that has been produced at the Haymarket; and this we say, with the full recollection that Colman was once managerof the theatre, and produced there his John Bull and his Iron Chest, and that The Love Chace and Money have been produced there during the reign of the present enterprising lessee. Time works Wonders is in every respect a sterling and an original comedy. The author " holds as 'twere the mirror up to nature." From nature he draws his characters, and every one will at once acknowledge the truth of the portraiture. His plot is well con ceived and admirably developed ; the interest is com pletely sustained through the five acts, and the climax comes at the conclusion—not as is too often the case, in these degenerate times, in the middle of the play. The underplot is so skilfully interwoven with the main hot, that it in fact becomes part of it, assisting and sustaining it throughout. The incidents arise naturally, and each act concludes with an interesting situation, so that curiosity is excited and completely kept alive in the intervals between the acts. The development of the plot and the management of the situations and incidents prove that the anther is one who thoroughly understands his craft. To speak artistically the drawing is perfect. It is the work of an accomplished artist. But when we come to consider the chsracter, and the dialogue, we must award Mr. Jerrold much higher praise. It is a work of genius— sf genius, in the highest sense of the word—of one who possesses the power of creatioa—t hat divine gift which is vouch safed to but few. The dialogue sparkles with wit and brilliancy, but it is not a mere " sharp encounter of keen wits ;" there is an under-current of deep thought (of that species of thought which is the best of all, because it makes others think), of kindly feeling, and of warm-hearted philosophy-, which proves that the author is not a mere cold blocded Voltarian ridiculer of the follies and faults of poor human nature, but one who can feel for and with his fellow men—that lie has not merely a shrewd head, but better still a good heart. The scene of the first act is laid at a country inn, in the neighbourhood of Oxford, where we find Felix Goldthumb (Charles Mathews) the son of a trunkmaker at Oxford, and Profe.sor Truffles (Strickland), a gentleman who tra vels about the country with the solar system in a deal box, domiciled for a time. They are excellent friends for the time ; for Felix, who has stolen away for a holiday, has money to spend, and the Professor, who loves to dine at other people's expense, is very willing to as sist him in spending it. Their dinner of eggs and bacon, the only fare the hostelry affords, is in the course of preparation, when a carriage drives up, which attracts the attention of Felix. The carriage contains Clarence Norman (Mr. H. Holl), a young Oxford student; Florentine (Miss Fortescue), a baker's daughter, young, rich, and accom plished, with whom he has eloped from Miss Tucker's boarding-school, and her friend Miss Bessy Tulip (Madame Vestris), a warm hearted, giddy, thoughtless girl, who has accompanied Florentine for the fun of the thing. The horses are jaded and the post-boy refuses to proceed. Felix is an old playmate of Florentine. Clarence asks him if he can procure horses for their jouraey, and Felix having ascertained that his intentions are honourable and his purpose marriage, promises to assist him. The young men go off to seek horses. Truffles goes into the kitchen to look after his dinner, and the girls are left alone. A chaise drives up containing Miss Tucker (Mrs. Glover), Olive (Tilbury), the friend of Florentine's father, and old Goldthumb (Darren), the tisther of Felix (who has in his capacity of trunk maker sold trunks to Florentine for the elopement), in pursuit of the runaways. The character of Miss Tucker is admirably drawn ; professing humility, she is the most despotic of tyrants ; pretending to teach virtue she inculcates meanness and hypocrisy. She is the very incarnation of c( Id blooded propriety, worshipping selfishness. It appears that there have been in former days sundry love passages between Truffles and Miss Tucker, and the unexpected sight of the professor interrupts an eloquent oration, which the worthy governess was pronouncing an the impropriety of marriage —Olive remonstrates with Florentine, and endeavours to persuade her to return. She refuses— she loves Clarence ; but when ranee lapse 01 tire years takes place between the first and second acts. The scene of the second act is laid in the neighbourhood of the seat of Sir Gilbert Nor man (Mr. Stuart), the aristocratic uncle of Clarence. Florentine, whose father is dead, resides in the neigh bourhood, and Miss Tucker, whose school has been broken up, is living with her, as tyrannical and over bearing as ever, humoured by Florentine in, every whim, is the pest of the neighbourhood, yet constantly complaining of her state of dependance, and eternally dinning into the ears of every one with whom she comes in contact " that she is quite aware that people that live in other people's houses have no right to say or do anything. The fastidious Baronet, disappointed in his hopes of making a figure in Parliament, is leading a secluded life at his country seat, and Clarence, who has been for five years on the Continent, is on the eve of re turning to his uncle, completely cured of his love-fit, and thoroughly imbued with that worldly wisdom which sees but two objects in life, rank and wealth. Old Goldthumb, who has inherited a fortune, and who, since he lined his trunks with the Roman his tory, has considered himself as a paragan - of-Roman virtue, has taken a place in the neighbourhood, and offended at sundry peccadilloes of Felix, has sent him to Batavia, thoroughly convinced that Felix is a " wonderful boy," and that, like the sun, he will rise in the East. Miss Bessy Tulip, who had been originally sent to Miss Tucker, from Trincomalee, for the purposes of education, having keen "finished" by the worthy Lady, has returned to the East. Sir Gilbert Norman has seen Florentine, has admired her, and at forty-five years of age is desperately in love. Clarence returns unexpectedly, and is received by his uncle most cor dially. Suddenly Sir Gilbert perceives Florentine in the park sketching. A thunder storm arises—the Baronet takes advantage of the opportunity to offer Florentine a shelter in his mansion—she enters his library and meets Clarence. No words them, but they have met and effective recoiga and n?sed between other, and with this most in teresting situation the second a ct co ncludes. The remainder of the play passes in Florentine's cot tage. The scene is a beautiful one. It is perhaps the most chaste and elaborately elegant interior ever represented on the stsge. After a lively scene be tween Patty (Mrs. Hu mb y) the q uondam servant of Miss Tucker and Bantam (Mr. Buckstone) ex-game cock, purveyor to the Univerrity of Oxford and now valet to old Goldtbumb, Felix and Bessy unexpect edly appear upon the scen e. Having met at the Cape of Good Hope on their voyage out, they have there mar ried end returned to England , and have takenfound to break refuge with Florentine until mean s can be __ the affair to old Goldthumb. Truffles has ma naged, on the strength of his learning and accom plishments, to domicile himself with Old Goldthumb, in order to teach him how to spend his money like a gen tl e man, and has met Miss Tucker, who still in dulges in the hope of becoming one day Mrs. Truffles. Cl a rence and Florentine have met and conversed. He gives himself the airs of a mere worldly-minded man of fashion. She, too proud to confess her affec tion, talks of her former attachment as the silly freak of a giddy girl, who once had the side-ache, and fan cied it was love. They part. Sir Gilbert enters, and offers Florentine his hand. lie knows not that she is Clarence's old love. She asks him of Cla rence. He tells her of Clarence's former attachment and sneers at the baker's daughter, Clarence, he says, is about to form a noble and rich alliance — and in a moment of indignant pride she accepts him. The fourth act is all broad comedy, we have the loves of Truffles and Miss Tucker, and the tricks of Felix, Mrs. Goldthumb, (Mrs.W. Clifford) and Bessy, assisted by Truffles, to work upon the superstitions and fears of old Goldthumb to make him wish for the return of his son. The dialogue is full of wit, the situations are most humorous, and most artisti cally has Jerrold managed by the force of contrast to bring out into stronger relief the serious matter of the preceding and succeeding acts. In the fifth act, we find nature asserting her supremacy in the heart of Clarence Norman. His old love has revived —he seeks his uncle and remonstrates with him on the cold creed in which he has taught him to put faith. Sir Gilbert himself has discovered that there are better things in nature tha n rank and wealth. He has found out that even he, thecl apeetle of the calculating school, has a heart, and in the enthusiasm of the moment bids Clarence seek out his early love, and if she still remains true,.marry her. for reflection, Gilbert meets Florentine, she has ha d time reflection, she had mistaken pride for love, she feels she cannot give him her heart, she at once tells him b that she can never wed him. Overpowered e motion he listens to her. He te a l n ls dr h e e i r eas h e y e s sought a wife and not a victim, her from her vows. This is one of d. ti he m s o i s tu t aexqui sitely pathetic scenes ever pe i nce age is equal to the a most effective one, and the language Stuart and Miss rivetted the attention of situation. The acting of S i _i t cee p e l it e e i er ortescue_ bieettaeas sileace to the was beautiful list the audience-ri b nberlaud to Lancashire, and the west of England, and Ireland In addition to the proceeds tom passengers and goods, a very large come will accrue from the extensive mineral re.ources of the 'miry. A better access will be made to the Lead Mines of Mid. eton-in-Teesdale, and to those in Westmorland. The line will In near a large district of iron -stone, and become the channel for the coal of Durham to pass iato East Cumberland, Westmorland, the north-west of Yorkshire, and Lancashire north of the Wyre. It will form a function between the Baltic ports of the Wear and the Tees and the western ports of Lancaster, Fleetwood, and Liverpool. To increase the traffic to these large importing harbours, new docks are now making at Hartlepool, and the Tees river has been declared a " free port" to all vessels. There are no canals in the district, and no direct competing rail ways. The local traffic is now conveyed by carts, while the through traffic is conveyed from Manchester to Newcastle by York on the one hand, or by Carlisle on the other. Stainmore is the route for the agricultural produce of Cumberland passing into the colliery and mining districts of Durham. The general traffic has been estimated to yield an adequate return (or the proposed capital. _ _ For the purpose of securing the coal trifle a Branch will be made from West Auckland to the line between Greta Bridge and Bowes. This Branch will connect Barnard Castle with the Coal District as well as give to that town a road to the south-west and to the north.

NOTICE TO THE SHAREHOLDERS. The extensive and influential support which has been given to this Company, and the cordial feeling in its favour pervading the districts through which the line is intended to run, have induced the Com mittee to accede to a generally expressed wish of the inhabitants on the proposed line, that they should be prepared, if hereafter found necessary, to enlarge their original scheme, so as to offer to the public the advantage of a new and perfectly Independent line from London to Exeter. ts ithetoo:oo:7lEitnn commence en (t) have teibr id ie. o e p a t l e , d asr by r ß e l c e e h i th v e ° t n l esawbt enabled te sanction of the Legislature, and from thence to proceed by w9v Bagshot -0 ..... to an extension from Yeovil to Exeter, the Com mittee have no intention of competing with the present Exeter, Yeovil, and Dorchester Company ; but in the event of their failing to carry out their scheme, this Company will be ready to make the ex tension to Exeter. aslirl?er: which In reference to the important question of the broad and narrow gauges, the Committee consider it expedient at present to leave it entirely open. It is obvious that, if the line were to commence at Basingstoke, two.alternatives w0..l I present themselves ; .first, that of constructing it on the narrow guage, and, in that ease, of adopting the line of ilia South-Western Company-from London to Basingstoke, or, secondly, of constructing it on the broad guage, and of traversing the Great Western main line and its branch from Reading to Basing stoke. The advahtage of an entirely independent line appears, however, to be paramount. Such a line would afford the Govermtent the means of bringing the South Western and Great Western Companies within the scope of the Railway Act of last session, as to the power of pur chase and revision, and thus protect the public from the effects of powerful monopoly. the Board of Trade's report on the London, Worcester, and Wolverhampton, and Birmingham and Shrewsbury districts, attaches much weight to all reasonable guarantees against monopoly which may be offered by existing companies. In that do cument it is stated that the London and Birmingham Railway Com pany, on condition of obtaining their Rugby line, have offered to allow the following clauses to be inserted in their Act, viz.:- 1. The whole of the railways under their control, including the existing London and Birmingham Railway, to become subject to the options of revision and purchase contained in the Act of last year ; the option of revision, however, at ten per cent., to accrue at an earlier period than that of twenty years, specified in the Act. 2. A revised tariff to be framed for the whole of the said railways, including the London and Birmingham Railway, upon the principle of fixing maximum rates for passengers and g, ods lower than those w present charged, and at as low a level as those charged upian any of the principal northern railways. 3. One article of such tariff to he, that coals and Iron are to be carried at rates not exceeding Id. per ton per mile, including toll and locomotive power. 4. All differences with other railway co m p anies, by which the public safety or convenience are affected, to be referred to the Board of Trade, or other competent authority for that purpose established by Parliament. 5. The London and Birmingham Company to pledge the whole revenue of their existing line for the completion of the proposed un dertaking within a reasonable time. The Committee look forward with confidence to the adoption of their scheme, more especially as the Board of Trade has stated in their report on the Hampshire, Wilts, and Dorset district, that there is nothing in the present settlement between the Great Western and the South-Western Companies to prevent such a line as that now troposed from being brought forward, either by the South-Western Company or by other parties. . The Committee have therefore determined to apply to Parliament for power to commence their line at Staines or Richmond, thereby securing a most advantageous metropolitan terminus at the Hun gerford station. On the final adoption of the extended scheme, the capital will be proportionably increased, and in the allotment of the additional shares a preference given to approved holders of the existing scrip.

The many wonders which it wrought when brighten'd, Have many a weary, heavy season lighten'.l. Oft has the youthful reader, wond'ring paus'd To think upon the changes which it caus'd. And many a tedious mile would thousands amp, To be possess'd of an "Aladdin's Lamp." But what's " Aladdin's Lamp" to do with MOSES? Why, you shall hear before the subject closes. This wond'rous "Lamp" could not perform a part Half so surprising as the " Wond'rous Mart." The instantaneous transformations here, Are all the conversation far and near. When once a suit of MOSES' clothes you're clad in, A change is wrought as if by fam'il " Aladdin." The purchasers from MOSES well-stord shelves. So chang'd become they scarcely know themselves. MOSES and SONS' fam'd Dress Mart is display'd The brightest " Lamp" amid the sphere of trade. Let those who wish to put it to the test, One single trial make, and leave the rest. When once you try, for many a mile you'll tramp To find the rival for "Aladdin's Lamp." A new work, entitled " TOE LEVIATHAN OF TRADE," with Full directions for Self-Measurement, may be had on applleation, or forwarded post-free. LIST OF PRICES. READY MADE. X s. d.

Church Farm, Barton Stacey, near Andover Railway Station, Hants, October 26, 1844. Sir,—l cannot help expressing my astonishment in the effect I have experienced In taking your Pills for the Gout. I was taken on Thurs day night so severely with it as to be with difficulty able to get out of my bed, and atter I arose I had severe pains, followecton with in flammation of the foot increasing. I took three of your fills, and within two hours I found the pain to entirely cease. I afterwards took two Pills at a dose twice in the day, and I am, thank Clod, this morning able to walk without the slightest inconvenience. I found in a previous very severe attack very great relief; I had the pains in my knees and thighs so very severe at that time, I thought I must have died, and that it mist have gone into my stomach. At that time I had resort to your : Fills, and they relieved me—within two hours I was quite easy. The use of these Pills ought, really, to be known all over the world. I have a brother, a young man, that suffers horribly with it, and his greatest relief and preventive has been your Pills. Make what use you please of my report.—) ours truly and respectfully, WILLIAM COURTNEY. Among the many discoveries that characterise the present age, none have contributed so much to the comfort and ease of the community, nor conferred such a boon upon suffering humanity, as the impor tant discovery of BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS, he efficacy of which has been tested by the approval and recom mendation of many of the greatest men of our day. They are effec tive for gout and rheumatism, in all its various forms, including sciatica, lumbago, pains in the head and face, frequently treated as tooth-ache, &e. They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other vital part.
