A direct communication from Yarmouth to the Metropolis is of the utmost importance to the port and trade of Yarmouth. The pre sent route by the Norwich and Yannotith and Norwich and Brandon Railways, now called the Norfolk Railway, conveys the Yarmouth traffic to London round by Brandon, Ely, and Cambridge, to Join the Northern and Eastern Railway—a distance of 146 miles. The ter minus of the Norfolk Railway at Yarmouth is acknowledged to be most inconvenient for the London trade, and the claims which it has upon Yarmen.ii are confined to the communication with Norwich and the western and north-western districts. A very large traffic exists between Yarmouth, Lowestoft, Beccles, Bungay, Halesworth, Harlestone, and Diss ; and also between all those portant towns and Bury St. Edmund's, Stowmarket, Ipswich, MI London. To supply the wants of these districts the Waveney Valley and Tar mouth Railway is designed ; and it will shorten the distance between Yarmouth and London twenty-four miles. It is intended to construct the terminus upon the best site as near to Yarmouth-bridge as practictble. The line will communicate with the quays, so as to take goods from the vessels on the river without transhipment or immediate carriage, thus saving considerable ex pense. This railway will run to the town of Beccles, thence to Bun gay (with a branch to Halesworth), to Harleston, and Diss, commu nicating there with the Eastern Union Extension Railway, and by means of that line to Stowmarket, Bury, Ipswich, Colchester, Chelrns font, and London. At Bias the railway will to within three miles of the important market town of Eye, to which a branch may he ad vantageously constructed. In its course to Beccles it will cross the Lowestoft and Reedit= line, and will afford the shortest continua cation from Lowestoft to London. The whole length of the main line will not exceed thirty-three miles, and the branch to Hates worth will he about nine miles. The population of the district through which it runs, taking the parishes within three miles of the line, is upwards of 100,000, according to the last census. The valley is one of the richest agricultural districts in England ; it produces large cratis of grain, and abounds with rich pasturage, a very large portion of the barley is malted at Harlestone, Halesworth, Bungay, and Beccles, and supplied to the large London brewers. The export of corn and flour from Yarmouth exceeds that of any port in the kingdom, the average being yearly 435,690 quarters. 70,100 tons of goods and 173,485 tons of coals are annually im ported into Yarmouth to supply the wants of the district. There are 574 registered vessels, coniprising a tonnage of 50,375, belonging to Great Yarmouth, and 3,400 ships yearly enter that port. Upwards of 100 vessels are employed in the mackerel fishery, and 200 in the herring fishery; the capital employed in these trades ex ceeds half a million of money. In addition to the above, very many other fishing craft are em ployed in catching turbot, soles, cod, haddock, whitings, shrimps, the greater part of which are sent to London ; and, as the fishing banks of the North Sea present an inexhaustible supply of these com modities, and the metropolis an almost boundless market for cheap and good fish, it may confidently be expected that the immediate and permanent effect of a quick transit between the two places will be a vast increase in this branch of traffic ; and it is anticipated that large quantities of Scotch salmon will be landed at Yarmouth, to avoid the tedious passage between this part of the coast and the metropolis. An immense quantity of live stock is sent from the district of this railway to London, which, in the event of this line being made, must pass upon it. Yarmouth is increasing extensively as the watering-place of the easteg, coast. A great number of houses have recently been erected, to aceSinmodate the requirements of visitors during the season, and many others of a first class are now in course of building. The traffic on this line of road has been taken, and is estimated to produce, independently of the fish.carriage, a return of £39,483 0 0 To this add for fish traffic from Lowestoft, according 3,727 0 0 to the present quantity supplied to the London market, calculated at a low rate ••..••••• • • • • • • • And for fish traffic from Yarmouth, according to the same data 0 0 Making •••• • ... .... £52,710 0 0 Deduct 40 per cent. for working expenses •..••• • • • 21,084 0 0 Leaving a net revenue of• ••••••• • • • • • • £31,626 0 0 which upon the capital of 400,000/.

Bury St. Edmund's .. 54 ~ Ipswich •••.••• • . • • • . • 53 Colchester 11 Chelmsford London 122 „ being twenty-four miles shorter than the route by the present Norfolk Railway. The traffic has been taken very moderately, and it inay be fairly calculated that the amount will be very considerably Increased by increased trade (particularly in fish, cattle, and grain), when the road is opened, and the facilities which railways afford are developed to a country hitherto tniaccOmmodated vpth Such ad vantages. The line has been carefully surveyed, and no engineering difficulty presents itself. It may be constructed very cheaply and speedily. The Waveney Valley forms a natural level channel without a single impediment; and where the line leaves the valley the cuttings are not heavy, and are required for the necessary embankments in the lower lands. This railway is brought forward with the general concurrence and approval of the country and towns through which it passes. It is now the universal opinion that this line is absolutely required by the district, and that without it the trade of this portion of the country will materially suffer, and consequently the value of property be depreciated by the competition ofallise neighbouring towns to which the great advantages of rails communication have been granted. Provision will be taken in the Act to allow four per cent. interest on the deposit and calls until the line is constructed. Powers will be taken in the Act to drain the marsh lands of the valley through which the line passes.

Leeds--The Leeds Banking Company ; and their agents, Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Smith, London. SOLICITORS. Dunning and Stawman, Leeds. Charlcsi lough, Bradford, The objects of the Midland and iifirsk Junction Railway are three fold ; firstly, to open up and fully develop one of the richest fields of Coal and Ironstone in the kingdom ; secondly, to make a Trunk Line of communication from South to North, between the Midland and the Leeds and Thirsk Railways; and, thirdly, in conjunction with the Midland at Oakenahaw, the Manchester and Leeds and the Wake field, Pontefract and Goole at Wakefield, the Leeds and If” n i fer y a t and the Leeds and Thirsk at or near in a rst i olefg, A tt s agr - d - tO the densely populated and important manufacturing district through which the line is intended to pass, the best facilities for the convey...co of pas sengers, merchandise, &c., to all parts of the country. The intended line runs parallel with none of the projected schemes of last session, and cannot be said to interfere with any of them; it is perfectly independent, and imperatively called for. The quantity of coal procured from different collieres now work ing in the Howden Clough and Cockersdale Valleys (which are on the intended line of railway) is about 6,000 tons per week, and when the railway now projected is formed, it is believed that the average supply weekly will be upwards of 20,000 tons, so that from this vast and inexhaustible field of coal, occupying more than 10,000 acres, and averaging twenty feet in thickness (of workable coal) an unli mited supply of the best and cheapest coal in the kingdom will be available for the London market (via Goole), as well as the more neighbouring towns of Wakefield, Leeds, Halifax, Bradford, Dews bury, Bingley, Keigbley, Skipton, Otley, Harrogate, Knaresborough, Ripon, &c., Ecc., where in most cases the reduction will be at least one-half, and in the more distant places much more than this amount of reduction, and in all which places an abundant supply of good and cheap coal is of the highest importance. The revenue to be realised from this source alone, it is believed, will yield a moat ample return for the capital required. • Besides passing through the centre of this immense coal field, the railway traverses a district affording accommodation t o a populat!on of upwards of 335,000 inhabitants, and whilst affording every accom modation to this vast population, whose internal traffic must neces sarily be very great, it receives an additional indemnity from the relative position in which it stands to other lines, so that for inter nal resources and external relations its advantages :are almost un rivalled. This :line affords the most direct communication from North to South, and will be a nearer route fram Huddersfield, Wakefield, Manchester, South Lancashire Cheshire, and all parts of the South, to that much frequented waterin-place, Harrogate, and will form a most eligible line, with appropriate stations at Wakefield, Alver thorpe, Batley, Drighlington, Tong, Pudsey, Stanningley, Calverley, and Horsforth. The length of the main line will be about sixteen miles, and the branches six miles. The project is warmly supported by the landed and local interests, and by a largo body of mercantile and wealthy individuals in the above districts, who, confident of a successful issue, will use every means for bringing the project before the Legislature next session. The Company reserve the power of making an extension from their line to Bradford, at the most convenient point for the convey ance of the minerals, &c., if adequate provision be not made by another Company. The liability of each Shareholder will be restricted to the Amount of his individual subscription, and interest will ho allowed upon all calls after the rate of 4 per cent. per annum from the time the Act is obtained. Further information may bo obtained of the Solicitors at Leeds or Bradford. and applications for shares may be addressed to them In the form subjoined. Prospectuses and fcrms of application may also be had of Mr. R. M. Seholefield, and any other respectable Stock and Share Agent in Bradford, Leeds. &c. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

It is proposed to commence this line of railway at Birmingham, at a point contiguous to the railways from the north, and to proceed thence to or near Henley-in-Arden, Stratford-on-Avon, Shipston, Chipping Norton, Woodstock, Oxford, Wallingford, and Caversharn, crossing the Great Western Railway at Reading, thence continuing in a direct course through or near Oakingham to Farnborough, where it will cross the South Western Railway, and proceed through or near Guildford, crossing the London and Portsmouth Atmospheric Railway, and continuing through or near Godalming, and Horsham, to Brighton and Shoreham, thus connecting the great manufacturing or ones., Cheshire. Nottinghamshire, Der byshire, and Leicestershire • the Sr. from PliAn4 6fteril4;;"ticelait-worki of Droitwich, and the entire north of England and Scotland with the southern districts ; and perfecting a direct line of communication between the Irish Sea and the Bristol Channel with the English Channel, at its most important and convenient point. By this railway the most direct channel of communication via Di eppe or Havre, with Paris, the whole of Central Europe, and the Mediterranean, will be effected. By the junction of this line with the Portsmouth Atmospheric Rail way at or near Guildford, ,the very important port and arsenal of Portsmouth will be placed in direct communication with Birming ham and the whole*of the manufacturing districts. The communication between the important districts accommo dated by this is now carried on by a very circuitous route, sub j,:cting it to great delay, which will be entirely avoided ; and this line of direct communication between termini of the utmost importance, without change of carriage between Birmingham and Brighton, and its consequent expense and loss of time, will also afford great local accommodation to the fertile, populous, and wealthy districts which arc traversed by it. To Berkshire, Surrey, and Sussex, to which sea-borne coal is now imported at great coast, and with much uncertainty, Staffordshire and Warwickshire coal may be conveyed by this railway at a great reduction in price. The products of the manufacturing districts will, by this line, find the most direct communication with Paris and central Europe ; and ~„. ..... - the interchange of stone, lime, tiles, cattle, wool, grain, malt, and hops, and all the produce of the districts traversed by this line, will be greatly facilitated. The Intercourse already existing between the proposed termini of this line is very considerable, notwithstanding the circuitous and necessarily expensive route ; but considerable as it is, it must be evident that such intercourse, whether for business or pleasure, will be greatly promoted by the construction of this direct railway com munication. There can be no doubt, that important as this line will be found as a channel for the traffic between the termini, it will derive a great profit from the traffic of the Northern and Midland Counties, and the Continent, whilst the railways converging at Birmingham, those lines which this will Intersect, and the new lines now constructing along the coast, will afford communication with the entire of Eng land.

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 communicatiox between the eastern and midland counties and the western district, including the whole of North and South Wales. The country through which the line will pass 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, and Leeds, will bo brought in direct com munication with the mineral districts of North and South Wales, and the salt district of Droitwich. 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, in 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 traftle which this line will secure and appropriate, in lieu of that which hitherto has been engrossed by the more dilatory course of water carriage. _ Asa public advantage to tile inhabitants generally of the country through which this line will pass, the promoters submit that the equalisation 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 Railway, and also of the proposed Rugby and Hunt ingdon Junction Railway, and proceed from thence near to the towns of Leamington, Warwick, Alcester, and end at the City of Worcester. At Worcester this line will form a junction with the several Welsh railways, the Shrewsbury, Worcester, and Crewe Union Railway, and the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton 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 Railways. To the inhabitants of Rugby as well as to those of the Midland, Eastern, and Northern Counties this line will afford a direct com 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 during the present month been most carefully surveyed by the engineers, and they report it to be free from engineering difficulty, and well adapted for a railway; and the pro visional 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 and ertaking. No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the Act is obtained, and power wilt be applied for 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 scriptions. 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 FreCr, Leicester ; Messrs. Alston and Gage, Liverpool ; Messrs. Freeman and ilon, Northampton ; Mr. John Duncaft, Manchester ; Messrs. George Edwards and Son, Bris tol; Mr. John Watson, Leeds ; Mr. John Cragg, Shipton ; and Messrs. Atkinson, Newcastle ; to any of whom applications in the undermentioned form may be addressed. FORM OF APPLICATION. To the Provisional Directors of the Rugby, Warwick, and Worcester Railway.

LYONS and AVIGNON RAILWAY. (COMP.AGNIE SEBASTIANI.) REPORT TO THE ENGLISH SUBSCRIBERS. GENTLEMEN,—We regret our not being able to report that we have succeeded in our efforts to obtain for you the objects of our Associa tion ; our best energies have been devoted to the subject, but from the altered state of the li rc umstances which has now arisen, oar Company, as at present constit uted, is not in a p osi tion to compete for the Lease. At the time our Company wa s farmed, it was u nderstood that the Government would provide the land for the lin e and stations, and possibly would undertake the e arthworks. The capital we then proposed (60 millions of francs), was considered suffi c i en t t o prov id e all that the Company, under tha t state of circumstan ces , would have required ; but after much doubt and delay, the Gov ernment have at length thtermined that their lesse es shoull undert ake thepurchase of the land, as well as the entire construction and wor king of the Rail way.theinform several The Bill has now passed the C hambers in that f orm , an d h as fixed the Capital at BO millio ns ( pective of the Grenoble Branch). Having, as we interpret c ur engagement to th e Subscribers , Subscribers, and neither power to undertake on t heir behalf the purchase of land, nor adequate funds for that larger pu rpose, we are und er th e necess i ty o f announcing the dissolution of t he p resent Subscri ption , and we have hold accordinglyth the depo og s y a further ub j ect to the thison o ready to be immediately returned in exchange for the l e tt ers of allot ment and banker's receipts. We would now invite your attention to the copy of the rde b r ea i d f statutes, which have been framed and adopted for the regulation of a new Company for making and working the proposed line. You will observe, that It is mainly under the same direction, and in many respects of the same character as that which tve originally proposed. The capital is necessarily larger, and the powers vested in those who have the conduct of the undertaking of a much more general charac ter. We desire to refer yo , i n particular to articles 4-22-23- 24-28-56. We aro empowered to offer to each Shareholder in the former Company who shall, on or before the 20th of September next, and in the manner we are about to mention, declare his option to accept them, the same number of S h a res in the new Comp any as he holds in the original Company , with or without one additional Share In respect of every five original Shares, and In order to faci'llate the necessary arrangements, we have prepared such forms as will enable the Subscribers to express their wishes with convenience. They are ready, and may be applied for at 62, King William-street, City, be tween Eleven o'clock, A.M . and Three o'clock P.M. We beg to add, that in the event of receiving a t this office no com munication respecting any particular allotment of Shares in the original Company on or before the 20th of September next, the de posit thereon will be held subject to the order of the party entitled to it, and it will be entirely out of our power to extend beyond the above-mentioned day the option which we have secured for the pre sent Proprietors to join the n It is right we should express our continued - confidence in the merits of the undertaking, and our recommendation to the Sub scribers to renew their investments in the new Company.

This line of railway, which is about sixty-five miles in length, is intended to commence at Uttoxeter (the terminus of the proposed Derbyshire, Staffonishire, and Worcestershire Junction Railway) and to proceed to Sheffield and -Huddersfield. It will form a direct com munication between two of the most important manufacturing and mining districts in England, viz., South Staffordshire and Sheffield, and Rotherham in Yorkshire ; the South Staffordshire portion in cluding Dudley, Tipton, Walsall, Bilston, Wednesbury, and Wolver hampton. This line will also open a direct railway communication between Leeds, Huddersfield, and the West Riding of Yorkshire and Kidder minster, IVorcestershire, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, Taunton, and Exeter, and with Ludlow, Leominster, Ilercford, Brecon, Car diff, Neath, Swansea, Llanelly, Caermarthen, Milford Haven, Fish guard, Aberystwith, and with Porthdynilaen, the future outport for Ireland. And also the most direct communication between Leeds and Southampton. - • The line will pass nearly along the irttoxeter and Caldon Canal to a point near Prcstwood, in case the canal be purchased by the pro moters of this undertaking. It will proceed through Ellaston and Mayfield to Ashbourn. thence nearDovedale, Buxton, and Chapel en-la Frith, and Holmfirth to Huddersfield, where it will join tae Huddersfield and Leeds Railway, and so to Thirsk. It will open new mines, in addition to those already in work, of lead, coal, iron ore, barytes, and carboniferous and magnesian limestone on the route, in addition to forming a direct, speedy, and cheap communica tion between the important towns above mentioned. Arrangements have been made with other companies to run into this line - from Sheffield. This company reserves the right to raise additional capital to extend the line to Leeds. Many of the above-mentioned mineral productions are essential to the milling districts of South Staffordshire and Sheffield. The North Staffordshire and Derbyshire Limestone is much superior to that of South Staffordshire in the fluxion of iron (15 cwt. of the former being equal to a ton of the latter), and producing a better quality of ma terial. At present, the mode of transit is very circuitous and expen sive, the line from the Caldon Mines having to go by canal round by Etruria, Leek, and the Potteries, to the Dudley and surrounding furnaces, when, by this railway, it would be taken in a straight line to them ; and the Aihbottnie, Cromford, Worksworth, and Bakewell scarce, and great quantities are introduced from Scotland; the same scarcity exists in South Staffordshire ; and the route of this line would furnish a good supply, at present not worked, and without a market, both north and south. In addition to these great advan tages, a good local market would be opened along the agricultural and other parts of the district at present very badly supplied with lime and coal, and that of an inferior quality, and by expensive car riage. It is, therefire, next to impossible to calculate the immense traffic which would pour down this line and the Derbyshire, Stafford shire, aed Worcestershire Junction Railway. The calculations which have been made show a very large profit. There arc large lead and slate quarries on the line which only want an outlet like the one now contemplated to bring them into fall work. The coal is of a superior quality. - • • • - There are also extensive barytes and paint-works at Ashbourne, Cromford, and other places on the line. The scenery of Derbyshire is the resort of vast numbers of tourists ; and particular care -will be taken, in passing of the line near Dovedale, not to interfere with or change its beautiful and romantic character. The convenience, therefore, which this line will afford must necessarily cause a great influx of passengers, both on business and pleasure. Ironstone is not so abundant in the South as in North Staffordshire, and vast quantities aro sent by the tardy, circuitous, and expensive canal company, which this and other lines of railway meeting at Uttoxeter will remedy. The gypsum formation runs from Staffordshire to the Humber, and the demand for this article for building, agricultural, and manufac turing purposes along this line will be great. The timber from the neighbourhood of the Needwood Forest Banks, liagots Woods, and Kingston Woods, upwards of 4,000 acres, chiefly finds its way to the Manchester market by a like objectionable route of tardy and circuitous canal convey ance ; whereas this line would open a direct, easy, and cheap communication to new markets. The line has been viewed prior to a detailed survey, and there are not more than ordinary engineering difficulties. In consequence of the late Parliamentary decisions, it is intended to make this line on the broad gauge principle, but the pro moters do not pledge themselves absolutely to do so.

This important line of railway Is forty-two miles in length; will commence at the railway station of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol verhampton Railway at Kidderminster, and will proceed from thence by way of Tenbury and Leominster to Hereford, where it will join the Hereford and Monmouth, and all the other lines of railway which converge from Hereford, and run into the West of England, and the mmensely populous coal, iron, and copper districts of South Wales, and the important districts of Central Wales. The intended railway will, by means of its connexion with the Derbyshire, Worcestershire, and Staffordshire Junction, and that portion of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton which runs itom Dudley to Kidderminster, complete the great chain of railway communication between the clothing districts of Yorkshire, the coal and iron ore districts of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, and the large mineral districts of South Wales. At Tenbury it will form a junc tion with the Worcester and Porthdynllaen intended railway, and will be the only means of enabling Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Wedneshury, Walsall, Coventry, Dudley, Stourbridge, and the other surrounding towns to avail themselves of the great outlet from Eng land to Ireland by means of Porthdynllaen,, the future outport for Ireland. It will likewise form the nearest route to the north of England, Manchester, and Liverpool from South Wales, and be a direct line from the centre of Wales into the Midland Counties. Thus the coals and other minerals, and the exclusive and constantly increasing iron works of Staffordshire, Worcestershire, and Derbyshire, the manu factures of Lancashire and Yorkshire, the saltworks of Cheshire and Worcestershire, and the agricultural produce of Wales. Hereford shire, South Shropshire, will have a direct and cheap transit. This railway is essential to complete the direct East and West traffic. The traffic of the populous districts embraced by the under taking will afford sufficient remuneration to the Shareholders, and a vast augmentation of revenue which will arise from the through traf fic, will make the stock of the Company produce nine per cent. So convinced was an important Railway Company of the great traffic which would run upon this line, that they bought up the pro moters of a similar undertaking at a considerable expense. The line is free from engineering difficulties, and gradients highly favourable. The Directors reserve the power of adopting the atmo speric principle and wide gauge, if approved of. The preference will be given in the allotment of Shares to persons locally interested in the line, and no Shares will be appropriated except to persons who Shall glee satisfactory references. Applications for Shares must be made to the Solicitors of the Com pany, or to Messrs. Owens and Greene, solicitors, Newtown, Mont gomeryshire ; to Mr. Cancellor, share broker, Cushion-court ; Messrs. Preece and Evans, 39, Lothbury, London; and to Mr. Andrew Milligan, Birkenhead. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES. To the Provisional Committee of the Direct East and West Junction Railway Company.
