CONSULTING ENGINEER — ACTING ENGINEER—CharIes Edward Bernard, Esq. SECRETARY, pro tem.—W. D. Logic, ESQ. The vales of the Ogwr (or Ogmore) Fawr and Ogwr Fach, and of the Garw, lying near and nearly parallel to each other, abound in minerals of the most valuable description, but owing to their secluded situation, and, above all, to the want of a cheap and easy communication with the sea, have teen hitherto wholly neglected. In order to supply this deficiency, and to open to the various markets the vast resources which these valleys afford, the above connecting lines of railway have been projected, and by them com munication with the port of Cardiff, Port Talbot, Porthcawl, and every other port in the Bristol Channel, will be effected. The length of the main line will be about 18 miles, and the branches up the three valleys 16, making in the whole about 34 miles. The branches will commence from Blaenogwr, in the vale of ()give Fawr, from Blaenogwr, in that of the Garw, from Blaenogwr, in the vale of the Ogwr Fach, and will concentrate at Bryn Cethin ; from thence the main line formed by thisjunction'avill pass by Llanharren, and join the South Wales Railway near to the port of Cardiff. The whole district of country through which the lines will pass has already been surveyed by highly competent parties, and affords gra dients and levels of the most favourable kind. No heavy cutting, expensive bridges, or embankments, will be required, so that the cheap execution of the proposedlines is perfectly certain. There is on the spot abundance ig i.ter..eand other materials for the proper execution of the works. Tile project is supported by powerful local interests, and all the landowners who have yet been consulted have given their sanction and approval. The rising town of Bridgend and its neighbourhood will no greatly benefited by the completion of this undertaking, and a cheap and ready market be afforded for their manufacturing and agricultural produce. It is intended to form a junction with the South Wales Railway near this town. The vales present sites for ironworks; and the establishment of colleries on a large scale will immediately succeed the formation of the road. Twenty-five miles of the line will pass through pro perty abounding in coal, ironstone, blackband, and limestone, all which products have not at present the means of transit to any mar ket whatever. It is confidently anticipated that the investments in this under taking will give a handsome return to the shareholders. No subscriber will be answerable beyond the amount of his deposit until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his sub scription. Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained the affairs of this Company shall be under the control of a Managing Committee, to whom power will be given to allot the shares, and to apply the funds of the Company ill payment of all the expenses incurred ill its forma timpl,aartnidamilet b tl t i . e preparation of the plans and sections to be submitted to b o y f the amalgamation to make e breach ra otherwise, erw lin is es : e Power will be applied for in the Act to raise any additional capi tal; to extend or abandon ypart allompany arrangements, or Companies ; and power is hereby given an kr. ,ovrate,natberyinettg,r Company to the registered promoters to nominate the Managing Committee t 'kNar l t ,_ e rgeant's Innof the Company.

The importance of connecting remote parts of England by rail ways, wlth the advantages thereby conferred upon intermediate towns and distracts, can scarcely be better exemplified than by the line which is row proposed to form a short and direct channel of Inter course between Oxford and Salisbury. Numerous projected lines now before the public will make Oxford at the north, and Salisbury at the south of the intended railroad, the central points from which various radii will diverge to the north-west, north, and north-east of the former, and to the south and west of the latter ; and the proposed line from Cambridge to Oxford, continuing to that city the coarse of railway front the north-eastern parts of the island, requires the appliance now suggested to effect a complete means of transit to the western and south-western counties. The Oxford and Salisbury Direct Railway, in addition to the benefits which will be conferred upon the nation at large, by perfecting a direct line if communication be tween the north-eastern and western and south-western parts of England, will afford to the borough of Abingdon, the market towns of Wantage, Hungerford, and Ludgershall, and the adjacent villages, an important railway accommodation, of which the agricultural districts in which they are seated stand in much need, and will provide a facility for the interchange of produce be tween the rural, manufacturing, and commercial population of the kingdom. The projected line will bring the Cathedral City of Salis bury into immediate connexion with the City and University of Oxford, combining also the advantage of a direct communication with the sister University of Cambridge ; thus strengthening the ecclesiastical and academical relations of the whole, whilst the com mercial prosperity of the two terminal cities must of necessity be essentially enhanced. The want of railway accommodation has long been felt to press unfairly upon the inhabitants of the important and thriving town 01 Abingdon. Their means and opportunieies of competing. with the more fortunate traders of those towns which are already provided with di rect channels of transit, are thus severey crippled. The same remark applies in some degree to the market town of Wantage, which, as well as Hungerford and Ludgershall, claims a share of the profits, and advantages produced Ity railway traffic. It has therefore been determined to commence the proposed line at Oxford, and to proceed through Abingdon to the station of the Great Western Railway at Steventon, thus giving to Abingdon a direct rail road to London. By continuing the projected railway to Wantage, the same facility of transit to London will be afforded to that place; and a perfect line of road from the north-eastern counties will, by a junc tion with the projection from Cambridge to Oxford, be produced, through the towns which have been named, Hungerford and Ludgers hall, to Salisbury, and thence to tke south and western ports and dis tricts. The survey is In a state of great forwardness, and will be com pleted in sufficient time to enable the Company to apply to Parlia ment in the next session ; and the promoters having received general and most satisfactory assurances of support from the local gentry, landowners, traders, and influential inhabitants, have reasonable ground to anticipate the unobstructed passing of the necessary Act for the formation of the Oxford and Salisbury Direct Railway during the ensuing session.

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 point 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 be 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 railways, 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 Falmouth, and those of South Wales. The inhabitants and visitors of the much-frequented watering places of Leamington and Cheltenham will thus obtain a direct line between those resorts, instead of the present circuitous route through Birmingham, affording that facility of intercommunication which has long been ardently desired ; and it will also afford the utmost fa cility of access to the innumerable visitors who, attracted as well by the beauty of the scenery as the memory of Shakspeare, annually resart to Stratford-on-Avon. To those passengers from the east and north-east, direct to Gloucester, the line from Tewkesbury, cutting off the angle of the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway to Cheltenham, will afford a great accommodation, and a saving in distance of at least eight miles, besides the delay of the stoppage at Cheltenham. At Tewkesbury it will also form a junction with the proposed line from that place to Malvern, affording the most direct communication to the numerous visitors to the magnificent scenery and invigorating atmosphere of the celebrated Malvern-hills. To the Inhabitants of the ancient and populous borough of Tewkes bury this portion of the proposed lino will prove immensely advan tageous ; situated within ten miles of the important city and port of Gloucester, they have nevertheless to travel by the present railway route nearly twice that distance, an inconvenience which has already materially affected the trade, and prejudiced the interests of the town. The proposed line, running close to the town, will remove this great inconvenience, and restore its trade to its former state of prosperity. The value of this line to the city and port of Gloucester cannot be too highly estimated, as it will not only open to it immen , e sources of traffic from the whole of the eastern and north-eastern counties, but will very materially lessen the distance between it and Birmingham, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire, making Gloucester still more securely the nearest and most accessible outlet for the whole of that immensely productive manufacturing region; and it is impossible to conceive any project better calculated to advance the interests of Gloucester, than one capable of effecting that object. Ths line will also form an important junction between the London and Birmingham and Midlands Railways, and the Bristol and Gloucester Railway, and constitute the highway for the traffic of the , to the proposed ham ; and the through Man chesterronn er a a n n d d s o o t' n al t l n t a h m e p i tn io n rt ß h- a e l a h, s . t a e y rn at r e ai h N e ia ta y a s 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 aftbrding 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 agricultural districts of Warwickshire and Wor cestershire, in the manufacturing towns and ports of the north. "i'he line will be easy of construction, traversing, as it does, through nearly its whole length, the valleys of the Avon and Severn. The towns through which it will run are very populous, and the country of the richest description ' • and the local traffic will conse q uently be very great in addition to the through traffic, - which on such a line must necessarily be very extensive. The Provisional Co•amittee reserve to themselves the power to amalgamate with any other company as to the whole or any part of the line, and to vary or extend the line, and to increase or diminish the capital accordingly, if deemed expedient. The capital proposed to be raised is 1,000,0001., in shares of 201., each, upon which a deposit of 21. 2s. per share must be paid upon allotment. _ 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 data of each payment until the opening of the line. .

Offices, No. 2, Guildhall Chambers, Basingball-street. This Company Is formed for the purpose of establishing dt r • rail way communication between the important ports of Hull, Great Grimsby, and Southampton. It is intended to effect this desirable object by the construction of a line of railway, commeucing at Lincoln, passing Grantham, Oak ham, leppargliain, near to Rockingham and Bothwell, and Joining the South Midland Railway between 3.l.rket Hatborough and North ampton ; thus forming in connexion with projected um,. tsr railway from Hull and Grimsby to Lincoln, and from Northampton to South ampton, the connecting link, In one uninterrupted chain of railway communication, from Hull and Gritusby to Southampton, Gosport, and Poole, and the whole of the south-western coast of England. . . It will also form the most direct route. from Hall, Great Griinsiiy, and the whole of Lincolnshire, Rutlandshire, Northamptonshire, and part of Leicestershire, to Oxford, Banbury, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, Exeter, and the south and west of England. An inspection of the map will at once show the Importance of this undertaking, whether considered in a local or national point of view, forming as it will an intimate connexion between London and the south generally, with the fertile districts of Lincolnshire and the adjacent counties, at present without railway accommodation; whilst its value to the South Midland, the Northampton, Banbury, and Cheltenham, the London and Birmingham Railway Companies, and the projected lines south of Northampton (to which it will form a most profitable adjunct), must be obvious. This line will also form junctions at Lincoln with the projected line from London to York, also with the Leicester, Louth, and Grimsby, the Nottingham and Lincoln, and the other proposed lines running to Lincoln at Grantham with the Nottingham, Yale of Belvoir, and Grantham, and the Grand Union ; at Oakham with the Syston and Peterborough ; also with the Boston, Stamford, and Birmingham and London, and Manchester Direct. One great and Important feature in this railway is, that it does not run parallel with, or In opposition to, any existing line of railway. The ground has been surveyed and found to be practicable, pre senting for the most part no engineering difficulties. Satisfactory communications for mutual co-operation have been opened with the several companies whose interests will be affected by the proposed line. In the meantime, the Committee of Manage. meat reserve power to amalgamate with any other company, or deviate front the proposed line, or make such extension and branches as they may hereafter deem advisable. The subscribers will be held liable only to the amount of their sub scriptions, and power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to allow interest at th ,, rats of 4 per cent. per annum on all calls from the passing of the Act. In consequence of a great portion of the shares having been already applied for, the period for application must necessarily be very limited. Applications for shares may be made, in the annexed form, to the following sharebrokers :—London, Mr. W. West, Capel-court ; Mr. Benjamin Rankin, Tokenhouse-yard ; Mr. Morton, 14, Exchange buildings, Liverpool ; Messrs. E. C. Hews and Co., Leeds ; Messrs. Gibson and Dover, Manchester ; Messrs.

The object of this undertaking is to open a direct line of rail way to connect the Northern, Eastern, and South Essex Railways, by means of a steam ferry , from Tilbury Fort to Gravesend, with Tunbridge Wells, Lewes, and Brighton. It is contemplated to proceed from the Eastern Counties Rail way at or near Harlow station to Tilbury, crossing the river by a s team floating.bridge to Gravesend, passing by Cobham, Snodland, Mailing, and Hadlow to Tunbridge, thence by the South. Eastern Railway to Tunbridge Wells, passing Uckfield to Lewes, and thence joining tke Brighton, Lewes, and Hastings Railway to Brighton. An inspection of the map will clearly show the great import ance of this railway, whether considered in a local or natioual point of view, forming as it will a most useful chain of local com munication for the fertile and populous tracts through which it passes. It will bring the Northern and Eastern Counties, the mouth of the Thames, and North Kent, into direct communication, by way of Brighton, with Dieppe and Havre, and thus form, in con. junction with the railways Now in progress on the Continent, the shortest possible route to Paris and the Mediterranean. By this railway the large population of the North Eastern Coun ties, numbering nearly two millions, will have a direct and easy communication with the whole of the populous and important counties of Kent and Sussex, without going round to London, and thereby avoiding the inconvenience arising from the unconnected lines north and south of the metropolis. The utility of this line to the naval and military service, both in times of peace and war, for the conveyance of ttoops and stores, is evident. With the existing railways, and those now in progress in Kent and Sussex, a most complete system of local communication will be effected; and as such, the project has been received with the most distinguished approbation and pledges of support from the principal proprietors along the line, and the Corporation of Gravesend have promised their entire sanction to, and will cordially support it. The ground has been carefully surveyed, and found to present no difficulties to the formation of a good working line. The existing local traffic has been ascertained to be amply suf.. ficient to fulfil the requirements of the undertaking; but a large accession of valuable traffic cannot fail to be the result of the increased accommodation thus afforded to the public, and rendering the undertaking one of the moat important as well as productive lines of railway in that part of the country. The Committee reserve power to themselves to form branches from Snodland to Chatham and Maidstone. The liability of the shareholders will be restricted by Act of Parliament to the amount of their subscriptions, and power will be applied for in the Bill to allow interest at 4 per cent. per annum en all calls, from the passing of the Act until the opening of the line. Applications for prospectuses and also for shares may be addressed in the annexed form to the Secretary, at the Offices of the Company, 11, Adam.street, Strand; to George Smith, Esq. Solicitor, 24, Golden-square, and No. 2, Guildhall-chambers, Ba singhalLstreet ; Messrs. Coombe and Sharlaud, Gravesend , Messrs. J. and E.

Sir,—For the last three or four years I have been labouring under a nervous deatness, so much so at times as to be almost incapable of hearing. After trying several very eminent aurists, from whom I de rived scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friend, to try your excellent Eye Snuff. I accordingly procured one of your Is. 4d. canisters, after taking which I found considerable benefit, so much so that I sent for two more, which, having used, I found my hearing completely restored, and I have not been deaf since. I should mention that the time I commenced taking your Eye Snuff was in April last, and have continued taking it since.—l am, Sir, your *be. client servant, W. H. ADAMS. To Mr. W.
