S. BLUNDELL, Hon. Sec. ' i Severn, which it will traverse to Shrewsbury ; it will thence con tinue its route un the course of the Severn, and passing into the Vale of the River Vyrenvy, will proceed to Llan-y-mynech, Ilanrhaladr, and Mechnant, accommodating Welchpool, Oswestry, and Llangoilea. At this point there are three passes, which have been inspected, and it remains for the engineer to select one as an entrance or passage into the Vale of the River Dee, when the line will proceed round k: Corwen into the Vale of the River Alwen, from whence it will run nearly parallel with the great Holyhead Mail-coach-road, by Pentre voelas to Carpel Cerrig, it will then descend the Vale of Nant Frangon to Bangor and Holyhead. This line will in its progress-feed, and be also fed by the most consi siderable railroads of the kingdom, particularly those of the Great Western ; the Birmingham, Gloucester, and Bristol; the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton ; the London and Birmingham ; and the South Staffordshire Railway. As this last line will connect Dudley, Bilston, Wednesisury, Walsall, and Lichfield with the Derby Railway and the Grand Junction Railway, it would be superfluous to expatiate on the advantages of bring ing . all these important centres of the coal and iron trade and other traffic, and the vast coal and iron fields of Shropshire into close intercourse, and thus establishing the cheapest and quickest means of transit between the minerals of Shropshire and the furnaces of Staffordshire, and the markets of Dublin, London, and Birmingham. The success of the undertaking is secured beyond a doubt, by the obvious fact that it will not only bring the richest mineral and manufacturing portions of England much nearer to the two capitals, but it will open for the carriage of the valuable pro duce of these districts the intermediate country not at present pos., ceased of any direct line of railway communication. On the other hand, the Grand London and Dublin Approximation Railway will give to London and the neighbourhood of Birmingham a route to Dublin shorter by nearly seventy miles than that of any other exist ing railroad ; and finally, enable travellers to complete the entire distance in ten hours. It will also ensure two mail deliveries in the day. Up to the point where the line approaches Corwen, no engineering difficulties are presented. At Corwen a deviation from the strabiht line may he requisite to avoid tunnelling, after which a straight line will be resumed to Bangor, where that already he construction will be adopted for the rest of the route to Holyhead ; or, if found de sirable, power will be taken in the Bill to continue an independent line by Reaumaris to Holyhead. Atter a careful investigation of the traffic arising from passengers, the conveyance of mineral and agricultural produce, and the direct transmission of the mails, the Directors fe I warranted in anticipating a return of at least ten per cent. on the capital Invested. A tra sty is in progress with a Steam Navigation Company to run powerful steamers between the harbours of Holyhead and Kingston on the arri 'al of the trains, so that passengers and merchandise may be booked throughout from London to Dublin, including all the inter mediate stations, and be thus enabled to complete the entire distance in ten hours, without the inconvenience so painfully felt of changing from the conveyance of one proprietary to that of another. The railways now in active pr gress in Ireland. running from Dublin north and south throughout the heart of the island, render it self evident that the chain of communi. ation between the sister countries is, by this present undertaking, reedered at once complete and intimate to the last degree. As the leading aim of this Company is to save time and distance, every attention of the Direnters, and every advancement in scienee wil be made available to gain the inmost passible amount of speed, com patible with safety. the lines being formed expressly for this end ; while, finally, the very lowest rate of fares will he adopted for both passengers and traffic, and the public will Mid in the improvement ef the inferior carriages, and some additi nal comforts for those of the first lass, that the Grand London and Dublin Approximation Rail way will be placed in advance of any other now existing, and in all its details will be rendered worthy an enterprise he national in its character. Application will be made for a Bill to incorporate the Company early in the next session. The usual power will be taken by the Act to allow interest at 4/. per cent. per a num on the amount of the subscriptions paid up; and no subscriber will he answerable for more than the amount of his deposit untll the Act be obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his subscription.

The Provisional Committee of the North London Junction Rail way Company have great satisfaction in informing their subscribers that negotiations are now pending between the Provisional Commit tee of this Company and the Directors of the Railwat s north of the Thames of such a character as to assure them that the City terminus of this Company will form the Grand Terminus of all the City traffic north of London. To effect tels important object, an area of 10 acres of grouad (the southera 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 o have induced the Provisional Comtnittee to determine on purchasing the entire site, and it has, therefore, been resolved b, 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 accommo iation for the traffic of each of the railway companies who may co-operate with them, an object which will be effected by opening the very extensive and valuable space of ground alluded to, within the centre of the City of London. In conjunction with thirentarged plan, it is intended to embrace that of a branch line to the piesent station of the Eastern Counties ReAlway in Sholeditch, which will effect an entire junction between the eastern and western parts of the metropolis; and at the same time afford a direct communication between the whole of the rail ways, which reach London tothe north of the Thames. and give lull development to each of their schemes by creating fur 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 wil ensure to this Corti- -my, will be added that of those companies al o who will eventually co-opera e with the North London function Railway Company, and the perfection of a project of no ordinary magnitude and importance will be realised throughout the whole of this short out very valuable line of railway. A. lithographic sketch now publishing will accurately define the entire district thro gh which this Company proposes :o run this Mite; •.) this means the most casual observer will be enabled to ascertain that the environs of London, north of the Thames, will be pits - ed in immediate commit 'cation with the city ; while the dense popu lation of the City will enjoy a fact its of connexion with its suburban localities, necessarily affording it the greatest. accommodation. With such important local resources, therefo e, together with the vast traffic on which the skareholiers 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 3.245, one-half of which reaches the City. The London and Itir mingham amounts to 4,322 o ai l y , two-Shires of which reach the City. The Eastern Counties amounts to 2,400 persons d,.ily, 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 from the suburban districts reaching toe City, now un accommodated by any railway, are estimated at 4,000 daily. From these sources the following products are derived : Per Ann. Passengers from the Great Western and Birmingham Rail way, at Gd. each......

It will pass through the central portion of the great coal-field of Glamorganshire, where iron-stone also abounds with the coal Ia im mense quantities, and laying, geologically speaking, nearly flat, and, obtainable, for the most part, by proper levels. The coal in addition to its being of excellent quality for iron making, as is proved at Mer thyr and Aberdare, is also, like that of those districts, of the very best description for steam purposes, being nearly smokeless, although inflammable, indeed so pre-eminently is the superiority of this de scription of coal established for steam purposes over any other, that the demand for it far exceeds the supply, and promises, accord ing to the opinion of the most eminent marine engineers, to super sede all others for purposes of steam navigation. This source of traffic alone will afford a handsome return for the capital invested, as has been demonstrated in every instance where even tram-roads or canals have been constructed to open the mineral resources of other less promising vallies in Wales than the Rhondda, which L 9 cele brated for the abundance, quality, and facility of •btaining its pro &teflon. _ _ An- inexhaustible supply of limestone (so necessary for the manu facture of iron and for agricultural purposes) may be obtained by means of this Railway, much nearer and cheaper than by any other line. This line will afford to the increasing population of the rich vales of Ely and Rhondda a much desired communication with the great market town and port of Cardiff, from whence, at present, they may be said to be almost excluded. It is intended that the line shsll commence at Blaen Rhondda, the head of the Rhondda Valley, and proceed down by a natural pass between the hills at Ifi-wd Amws, a distance of eight miles, where it will enter the Ely Valley and proceed down (a further distance of six miles) to Lanelay-bridge; near Lantrissent, and there join the South Wales Railway. thus opening a communication under the most advantageous circumstances as to distance, with all the ports in the Bristol channel. _ _ _ A preliminary survey has already been made by competent par ties, and it is found that the country admits of highly favourable gradients, so much so that it is confidently anthdpated that the works will be executed very considerably under the advertised ca pital. The landowners along the line are favourable to this undertaking, and the names of many influential proprietors will be found on the Provisional Committee. No Subscriber will be answerable beyond the amount of his de posit until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount or his subscription. Until an .let of Parliament shall be obtained, the affairs of this Co , •pany shall be under the control of the Managing Directors, to whom power is given to allot the Shrift a, and to apply the thuds of . he Company in payment of all the expenses incurred in its forma tion, and in the preparation of the plans and sections to be submitted to Parliament. Power will he applied for in the Act (and in the meantime is hereby given to the Managing Directors as above), to raise any addi tional capital, to extend or abandon any part of the line, to make bi—neh lines, or enter into any arrangements, by amalgamation or otherwise, with any other company or companies, and also to nomi nate the drat Directors of the Company. In the allottment of Shares, a preference will bo given to landowners of the line and other parties locally interested.

It will pass in its route within an available distance of Wakefield, Pontefract, Doncaster, Rotherham, East Redford, Nottingham, Newark, Grantham, Melton Mowbray, Oakham, and Stamford. The importance of such a line is obvious, both from the nature of its comae (embracing, as it doe., a most extensive population within its limits), as also trom the absence of any direct communication for the conveyance of passengers and merchandise. By the construction of this railway railway communication to London will be given to Peterborough and Leicester (by means of the Syston and Peterborough Railway), to Newark and Nottingham, (by the Nottingham and Lincoln linen, and to Sheffield and Gains borough, )by the Sheffield amid G.insberough line), by a much shorter route than by any existing ruilwa s. ralLeoiduertieulsetiliPrioyuogfht w he ui a c d h va tu n i t s a li g u es e woffilelrpeadstso, the e e l t i ozn i s u f i n ts t o h l e t; seve ral as a direct trunk line between London and Leeds, is sufficient required, as to admit of a dividend equal to that of any railway in 1.) betweenjustll3 formation, t i h tl e tw o places would being product. u, ( k e n o su w e r i i A that ;l e t t t u l r i c o x , : s t t i l l n o stran lcapitale nd means of a junction with the York and Carlisle Railway, no bett er formed for bu th t e wh p e u n rp i o t s i e s b gf rne co i n n ne t e n t l i: th a a l t as a go c w oi w np it a h ny .Le is ed b s ei b n y g line nli the western sit .ui.

The fact of the Eastern Counties Railway being connected by a branch line with the East and West India Docks on the river Thames, and the Railway Company having recently leased for 999 years the extensive pepper warehouses belonging to those docks, which are capable of receiving 12,000 tons of goods, together with wharfs adjoining, where the shipment and trans-shipment of goods from all parts of th 4 world can take place, is a most important fea ture in favour of the direct communication from the manufacturing, towns of Glasgow and Leeds offered by the Great Leeds and London Direct Railway and, by branch railways to the main trunk line, through which all goods from the manufacturing. districts could be conveyed at once to these warehouses for shipment, thereby avoiding the present delay and expense of cartage, and in reality establishing an almost direct and invaluable connexion between the rivers Clyde and Thames. It has been ascertained that there are no engineering difficulties, that the w rks will be easy, and the gradients remarkably goad, and that it will not materially interfere with any ornamental property. The subscribers will be held liable only to the extent of the r first deposits, until an Ast of Parl mem is obtained, and afterwards only to the amount of their subscriptions. It is proposed to take power in the Bill to allow interest at a per cent. per annum on all calls until the opening of the line, and also to extend the line to Hertford on the Eastern Counties line, in the l .e in h t a a r i l id T c oo pu t. event of that Comp any not prosecuting their line to Bedford. nitwit:as.

The proposed railway will commence at Rugby, on the London and Birmingham Railway, the terminus of the Midland Counties and Trent Valley Railways, and the paint to which several other projected railways converge, and will proceed through or near to Leamington, Warwick, Stratford-on-Avon, Evesham, Tewkesbury, and Cheltenham, to Gloucester. The length of the line will ba about 56 miles. The advantages that will result from the construction of this line are numerous and highly important, and such as cannot fail to secure a very large amount of local and through traffic, and a highly-re munerative return upon the capital invested. By means of existing and proposed railway s, it will form a complete chain of railway com munication between the whole of the midland and north-eastern counties of England, the populous cities and towns before-named, and the southern and western districts, and thus bring Leicester, Not tingham, Newark, Lincoln, Gainsborough, Great Grimsby, and Hull, into direct communication with the favourite and fashionable spas of Leamington and Cheltenham, the richly-productive and far-famed Vale of Evesham, and the seaports of Gloucester, Bristol, Plymouth, and Fahnouth, and those of South Wales. The inhabitants and visitors of the much-frequented watering- places of Leamington and Cheltenham, will thus obtain a t d e ir t e h e r t ough between those resorts, instead of the present circuitous t r e r tim which Birmingham; affording that facility of intermi t = the utmost fa has long been ardently desired; and it will also a memory of Sliakspe , s annually the beauty of the scenery as the me ciPty of access to the innumerable visitors who, attracted res in to Stratford-on-Avon. direct to Won ' To those passengers from the east and north-east,. sel l b y Gloucester, to Chelteidiam, will afford a Mrininglitm and Gloucester Raviilnwga distance of at least eight miles, great accommodation. and a !a , o at Cheltenham. besides the delay of the stoppa4 the line from Tcwkesbur3y, cutting off the angle of the affording the most direct communication from that place to 31iilverinthe,maguincent scenery and invigorating to the numerous visit ,, rs to 11 will also form a Junction with the proposed line kt Tewkesbury it of Tewkes • • h ibitants of the ancien and p To the in ' op . ulous borough important city and port of ' immensely advan ill prove tageous 61 uated within ttds he have nevertheless to travel by the present - ttilway bury, atmosphereportionof tl o e f e . tt l a pt t re e o, d 4p Gloucester, they route nearly. twice that distance, au Inconvenience which has already materially affected the trade, and prejudiced the litere , ts of the town.

SECRETARY—WiIIiam Ranyard, Esq. The first of this line is to connect the town of Birmingham. ' Coventry, and Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest route, and to supply an important link of communication between the town of Spalding and the eastern coast with the Western and Midlawl districts. Commencing at the Spalding station of the Lynn, and Holbeach Railways, the lin 'l Norwich, D erehal wl and Proceed by Boum. Witham, Castle Bytham, South Wythanet, Wymondharn, to lb point on the Syston and Peterborou ‘ , h line of railw a y near Melton.. Mowbray, thus formin g , b y the Syston and Peterborough and Mid land Counties Railway, an almost direct route to Leicester, and thence to Coventry and Birminghamthe by proposed Coventry. Nuneaton, Leicest er , an d Birmingham Railway. The projected line will form the most direct communication be. tween the eastern and midland districts of the kingdom, and will, by means of the proposed lines across the county of Leicester, via Bur. ton-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, Norfolk, Shaspshire, and-North Wales, nearer to each other by many miles than any other line of railway. It will form, with other projected railways, an almost direct line across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwich, on the east, to Aberystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west. The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There is notunnel. ling, cutting, or embanking o f an y importance necessary; the line ' from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve miles, is very level, and may be constructed at a small cost. It will secure the advantages of railway communication to a tract of country at present destitute of this accommodation, besides open. ins out sources of trade undeveloped for want of tbe means of transit. The central midland districts have felt greatly, the want of direct communication with the coast; and this line will at once supply the deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire. It will afford a transit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei. cestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon supply from the north at high prices : it will also secure the advan tages of an unlimited supply of lime 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 oMain the advantage of a direct transit for the stock r.nd agricultural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk. Several proposed lines of railway converge at Spalding, which Is the nearest point on the eastern coast for the midland counties, zuad connected by the River 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 irons 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 laud districts, will be sufficiently ample to warrant the outlay. The Parliamentary surveys have been commenced, and are row in active progress, and contracts have been entered into which en sure sufficient time for compliance with the standing orders.

CoorEa, Esq., seconded by Mr. WALBRAN, and unanimously resolved 1. That it is highly desirable that railway communication be esta blished between Hounslow and London, and that it be as direct as the nature of the country will permit, and follow as closely as pos sible the old coach thoroughfare. Proposed by Major JELF SHARP, seconded by B. J. AuxsTaoriG, sq., and unanimously r eso l ve d-- 2. That having E heard and considered a statement of the course whip h the projected line of Mr. Page will take, this meeting is of opinion that such line is most highly calculated to promote the in terests of this town and neighbourhood, and presents a prospect of far greater advantage than any line crossing the river, and not pro ceeding directly to the centre of the metropolis. Proposed by JAMESI MONTGOMREY, Esq., seconded by Mr. limo, and unanimously adopted 3. That the line projected by Mr. Page is particularly entitled to the support of the inhabitants of this town and neighbourhood, for the following amongst other reasons :- 1. Thitt it is the line originally proposed by the inhabitants of this district. 2. That it follows the direct course of the ancient thoroughfare from Hounslow to London, without crossing the River Thames. 3. That means having been taken for extending the original ter - minus from Milbank to the immediate vicinity of Charing-cross, it presents a more convenient access to tke metropolis than any other line. That this meeting, therefore, pledge themselves to give every as sistance in promoting the success of this line.

This line will also form an important junction between the London; and Birmingham find Midlands Railways, and the Bristol and 1. , Gloucester Railway, and constitute the highway for the traffic of the former, and of all the north-eastern railways, to the proposed Man chester and Southampton Railway at Cheltenham; and the through traffic from the latter source alone is expected to be very great.; It will thus have the effect of connecting the ports of the eastern and north-eastern with those of the western and southern coasts ; of affording the most direct and convenient access from the north and east to the.vast mineral regions of South Wales, and of opening new markets for the rich products of the fertile valleys of the Avon and Severs, and the ags (cultural districts of Warwickshire and Wor • cestershire, in the manufacturing towns and ports of the north. The line will be easy of construction, traversing, as it does, through nearly its whole length, the valleys of the Avon and :even. The towns through which it will run are very populous, and the country of the richest description ; and the local traffic will consequently be very great in addition to the through traffic, which on such a line must necessarily be very extensive. The Provisional Cmnmittee reserve to themselves the pcwer to amalgamate with any ether company as to the whole or any part of the line, and to vary or extend the line, and to increase or ditninish the capital accordingly, if deemed expedient.. The capital proposed to be raised is 1,000,0001., in shares of 201, upon which a deposit of 21. 2s. per share must be paid upon allot ment. The liability of the subscribers will be limited by the Act to the amount of their respective subscriptions to the capital stock, and power will be applied for in the Act to allow interest at the rate of 4/. per cent.per annum on the amount of the deposit, and upon the re spective calls, from the date of each payment until the opening (Atha line. The Subscribers' Agreement and the Parliamentary Contract will be required to be duly executed when the bankers' receipts are ex changed for certificates of scrip, of which due notice will be given ; and the deposits paid by persons making default in due execution c•f the Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract within the 1 time to be limited by such notice, will be absolutely(' erfelted.
