A considerable Parli:auentary grant having been made to improve the harboUr of Harwich, a Company has been formed to make large and commodious docks at that place, and from the fact of Harwich being diractiy opposite the ports of Holland (thus bringing it in communication' with the railways In Germany) there is no doubt but that Harwich will become a first-rate sea-port town for exten sive commercial and passenger traffic, and will be a powerful feeder to this line. (Provisionally Registered.) Capital, 1,600,0001., in 64,000 Shares of 25/. each. Deposit, 21. 12s. Gd. per Share. This railway will pass from the city of Exeter, through the rich valley of the Exe, via Silverton and Blckleigh, direct to Tiverton, one of the chief towns of this important district, and formerly the principal market and manufacturing town of the west of England. It will administer largely to the prosperity of this rich and productive country, and will pass from Tiverton, by Ramp ton, Dulverton, and Minster, to the port of Minehead in the Bristol Channel, opposite Landaff, Swansea, and Cardiff, from whence the produce of the rich mines and quarries of Merthyr Tydvil, Ponty pool, and Newport, in Wales, - can be transferred by the shortest route to the English markets. From Minehead it will pass by Porlock and Combe-Marten to the much-frequented watering-place of Ilfracombe, where it unites with the Barnstaple and Ilfracombe Railway. At Minehead It will also join the Bridgewater and Mine head Railway, to which it will serve as an Important feeder, connect ing the towns on the north coast of Devon directly with the great western trunk railroads passing from London to the Land's End. It will also form a very short and direct junction of the Bristol and English Channels. The town of Colchester is also a sea-port, .from which co: is and goods In large quantities are supplied to Halstead and the adjacent populous towns and village?, and goods, flour, malt, &c., in large quantities are chipped (supplied from the district through which this line is proposed to pass) to London and other places. Therefore this line will open a communicatieu much needed, and there cannot be any doubt but that the undertaking is one of great importance, as affording railway accommodation to a large and po p:dolts district of country atrough which it will pass, and that It will pay a goad rate of interest on the capital invested From Colchester the line will proceed to the fast-improving and much admired watering-place, Walton-on the-Naze, passing through Thorp and Weeley, amid thereby affording railway accommodation from - the Midland Counties to that place of summer resort for sea loathing. It is proposed that th!s line should commence at Leicestor, where It will form a esutiatiation of the direct line from Birmingham to that town, and proceeding' by or near Melton Mowbray, Corby, Foltenham, and Donnington, terminate at Boston ; thus affording a direct communication between Birmingham and its important manu facturing districts—Rugby, the great railway centre of England, and Boston, their nearest seaport, which eventually must command the traffic of the districts with which it is in connexion and the oppo site ports of the Continent. • A glance at the map will show how this lint is fed,"-crlthe towns in its neighbourhood supplied with railway accommodation by the in tersecting lines ; but in the event of the London and York line not obtaining its Act, it is proposed by this Company to construct a branch to Grantham. - - - and Co.

Huddersfield—The lialifax and Huddersfield Union Banking Com pany SOLIMORS. Mr. Wiliam Barker 1 New-street, Huddersfield, Messrs. Brook and Freeman The olject of this undertaking is to form a continuous line of rail way from Leeds to Liverpool, by extending the lines already made, or sanctioned by Parliament, from their respective termini at Hud dersfield, in Yorkshire, and Bury, for which extension a line of rail way only 25 miles in length is requisite. The proposed line will com mence at the Huddersfield station, between which place and Leeds. Parliament has already sanctioned the formation of railways, and iltom Huddersfield the proposed lino will proceed by way of Hillhouse' Birchencliffe, and Lindley, and thence along the valley between Stainland and Greet'and, through Bark'sland, the Vale of Ripponden, and by Rochdale to Bury, in Lancashire, where it will join the ter- Minus of the Liverpool and Bury line of railway. In addition to completing a direct communication from Liverpool to Leeds, Hull, and Goole, by the shortest practicable route, and by a much smaller outlay of capital, than by any other proposed line, it will provide tor a large and important manufacturing population, hitherto without the advantage of railway accommodation, an outlet to the south by means of the Huddersfield and Sheffield Jungtion Railway, and to Manchester and to North and South Lancashire by the railways above mentioned, and by the Leeds and Manchester Railway, by a proposed junction therewith at Rochdale. This line, when completed, will, in addition to the advantages which it presents as a through line, pass through a succession of val leys thickly studded with mills and manufactories, consuming a large quantity of raw materials and coal, all of which arc brought from a d:stance, and transmitting to other districts the produce of their industry, for which purposes a line of railway has become ab solutely necessary, and there can be iv) doubt that an ample return will be realised for the outlay of capital required. The dist:l - dee between Huddersfield and Rochdale by the present line of railway is thirty miles, which by the proposed railway will be reduc,.d to seventeen miles. _ . . . _ The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the right of enter ing into any airangements with existing railway companies that may to allow interest to the shareholders at the rate of 4L per cent. per appear desirable. And power will be taken by the Act of Parliament annum on the amounts paid on their shares from the respective times of bayment to the times of opening the railway.

In submitting this undertiking to the public, the promoters —a numerous and highly influential class—have been influenced no less by the general facilities pre - ented for its construction; by the fa vourable character of the country through which it is intended to pass, than by the conviction of its great local and general import ance as a direct line between North and South Wales, Shrewsbury, Lichfield, Tamworth, Derby, and Leicester, and the Midland and Eastern Counties generally. To effect this desideratum, the formation of a new 1 ine of 19 or 20 miles only will he required ; communicating with the Trent Valley RallWay at Lichfield, and uniting with the Shrewsbury, Wolverhamp ton Dudley and Birmingham, or Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Junction Railways, at Shiffnal. It is a remarkable fact that Shrewsbury, 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 20 miles. The town of Shrewsbury, now 95 miles from Leicester by road and railway, will, by means of this and the other 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 agricultural districts to be traversed, are considered, it is obvious that the construction of this line will insure to the Company a most lucrative return for the capital employed ; and that, as an investment, it must 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 markels of Derby shire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Lincolnshire, Norfolk, and Suffolk, whilst, in return, the agricultural produce of those coun ties will be sent into the densely-populated localities of Birmingham and 'Wolverhampton, and the Staffordshire, .;hropshire, and Weish 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 au4mented by its jointly: the Orand Junction, near to the Spread Earle Station. at a short distance from Wolverhampton. The facilities which will be tiff rdrd to visitors to Matlocli, and the rest of the picturesque scenery of Derbyshire, and of North Wales and Abrystwith, as well as to travellers via Holyhead to Ireland, will still further conduce to the genera' utility cf the project.

To effect this important object, an area of 10 acres ofgrousd (the southern boundary of which is within 500 yards of the Bank of England) has been most carefully surveyed and valued, and the re port of the architect and engineer is of so favourable a character as to have induced the Provisional Committee to determine on purchasing the entire site, and it has, therefore, been resolved by them to in crease the capital of this Company to 1,300,0001. The Provisional Committee consider it of paramount importance to secure within the limits of their City terminus, the amplest and most complete accommodation for the traffic of each of the railway t y he centre of the City of London. eo-o,peeryrateextwensithivethaenmi, valuable uoabbjleecstpwa space will be a c n ia i nd p e in ;a u, n w wc h ti iotoh within with this enlarged plan, it is intended to embrace effected by opening th e that of a branch line to the present station of the Eastern Counties Railway in Shoreditch, which will effect an entire junction between the eastern and western parts of the metropolis ; and at the same time aflord a direct commtuileation between the whole of the rail ways, which reach London tothe north of the Thames, and give full development to each of their schemes by creating for them a common centre within the heart of the metropolis. Independently, therefore, of the almost incalculable local traffic which the position of their City terminus will ensure to this Com pany. will he added that of those companies also who will eventually co-opera' e with the North London Junction Railway Company, and the perfection of a project of no ordinary magnitude and Importance will be realised throughout the whole of this short but very valuable line of railway. A lithographic sketch now publishing will accurately define the entire district throt:gh which this Company proposes to run this line; by this means the most casual observer will be enabled to ascertain that the environs of London, north of the Thames, will be placed in immediate communication with the City ; while the dense popu lation of the City will enjoy a f a & ity of connexion with its suburban localities, necessarily affordi ng it th e ' ,g reatest aecommodltion. With such important local resources, therefore, together with the vast traffic on which the shareholders of this Company have a right to rely for profit, a large amount of revenue may be fairly and justly anticipated, fully commensurate with the outlay of the proposed capital. That revenue will be derived thus : The daily passenger traffic on the Great Western amounts to 3,345, one-half of which reaches the City. The London and Bir mingham amounts to 4,322 daily, two-thiris of which reach the City. The Eastern Counties amounts to 2,400 persons daily, half of whom pass to the West-end of London. The omnibus traffic daily is 30,894 passengers, two-thirds of which may be - given to the City; Passengers fron the suburban districts reaching the City. now u n .. accommixiated by any railway, are estimated at 4,000 daily.

That this meeting, looking at the past half yearly reports, especially the last two, made by the Directors of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Company to the proprietors of that Com pany—at the present receipts--and the gradually increasing traffic upon the Bristol and Exeter Railway, with the prospect of a still much greater traffic from its various branches and the already formed South Devon and projected North Devon and Cornwall lines, and also at the value of the shares which the Bristol and Exeter Company possesses in the former two lines—and at the same time making every allowance for the disadvantage of a possible competing line direct from London to Exeter (estimated by the Great Western Company itself at 1 4 per cent.)—cannot but consider the provisional agreement made by the directors of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Company, for the sale of their railway and effects to the Great Western Railway Company, as a most improvident bargain, highly detrimental to the interests of the shareholders in the former under taking, and involving an unjustifiable sacrifice of the property of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Company, to which the proprietors of that company ought not to submit or assent ; and that measures be forthwith adopted to ascertain the sense of the proprietors in general upon the matter, and if they shall concur in opinion with this meet ing, to ensure their co-operation in preventing the confirmation of that agreement. 2d. That for these purposes a Committee be formed, consisting of the following gentlemen : Mr. J. S. Tripp Mr. C. F. Thomley Mr. Thomas Lucas With power to add to their number; and that Mr. Henry Brittan be requested to act as the secretary and legal adviser of the Com mittee, Mr. C. P. Dando Mr. J. Prowse 3d. And that this meeting request the Committee to Convene meetings of the proprietors of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Com pany as early as possible, at such places and in such manner as the Committee shall think expedient ; and to take such other measures as the Committee shall deem advisable for effectuating the purposes before mentioned. WILLIAM CROSS, Chairman. The Committee appointed for carrying out the above resolutions will be happy to receive communications from any shareholder ; and would earnestly impress upon the shareholders generally-, who may be prevented from attending the general meeting convened to confirm the provisional agreement on the 7th of November, imme diately to apply to the Committee for the form of proxy (which will be forwarded duly stamped), to enable the Chairman of this Com mittee to vote iu their behalf at such meeting, it being necessary that the proxy, in order to be effectual, should be lodged with the Secretary of the Company, five days before the meeting. The Committee would further urge upon each shareholder the ne cessity of his personal attendance at the meeting of the 7th of No vember, and that in the interim he should immediately forward to the Secretary of this Committee a statement of each shareholder's name and address, and the number of shares, wholes or thirds, of which he is the proprietor.

It will commence in junction with the Leeds and Thirsk Rail way at Wath, near Ripon, and following the route, as near as may be, of the Old Leeming-lane coach road, will proceed to a point near Masham, thence by way of Bedale, Catterick, Richmond, Middleton Tyas, Barton, and Mantield, to Bishop Auckland, where it will join the Northumberland and Lancashire Junction Railway The length of the projected line will be about forty miles, which will render the distance between the important towns of Leeds and Newcastle thirty miles shorter than by any existing, and fifteen miles shorter than by any proposed, line of railway. It will traverse districts abounding with coal, ironstone, lime, and agricultural produce, hitherto shut out from the advantages of rail way communication with the markets of the populous and manufac turing districts of Yorkshire and Lancashire. As this line will join the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union Railway near Bedale, the Lancashire and North Yorkshire Railway near to Richmond, and the Leeds and Thirsk Railway at Wath, it will afford the means of conveying coal, at moderate charges, to the extensive agricultural districts through which these several railways are pro posed to pass. The coke produced in the Auckland district already commands an universal preference over that supplied from any other part of the kingdom, and is accordingly in great request on all the principal lines, and the proposed railway will afford the most direct and con venient outlet far it to the midland districts, where the demand will be unlimited. From the most careful and diligent inquiry it has been ascertained that the coal and coke are alone sufficient to yield an ample return for the capital employed in the construction of the line, independently of the present, and continually increasing traffic, in passengers and merchandize, which experience has hitherto found to result, wherever the fitcillties of railway communication has been provided. The attempts now making to constitute Leeds the great centre of railway communication between the northern and southern parts of the kingdom, for which its geographical position and commercial importance offer so many facilities, must necessarily render the New castle and Leeds Direct Railway an important trunk line. " ' _ ------ The surveys are already made, and the line has been found to present no engineering difficulties, and to be of easy and inexpensive con struction. All other preliminary steps have likewise been taken to obtain the Act in the ensuing session of Parliament.

Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedhergis, and Kirkby Stephen, and thencesby 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 traffic abound, and cannot fail to make this one of the most remunerative projects of the clay. A considerable saving of distance between the important towns on the termini is effected over any existing er pro jected scheme. It will be reserved to the Committee of Management to make such alterations in the line, or the amount of capital required, or other wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the interests of the Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act to the opening of tbe line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only. _ _ _ .
