This line will diverge from the line of the Great Eastern and Western Railway, near Worcester, and proceeding by Brorn yard, will end at Leominster, at which point it will unite with the proposed lines connecting Hereford and Shrewsbury with North Wales. The communication by railway between these important towns and the continuous hop and cider districts has been entirely left unprovided for by existing arrangements. and this line is brought forward under the auspices of the Great Eastern and Western Railway Company, on the strong representations and request of a large and most influential body of the landed gentry of the neigh bourhood. The object proposed is to make a direct communication between Leominster, Broznyard, and Worcester, which latter town has always been the natural market for the produce of these districts, and to af ford the inhabitants the most direct communication with London, as compared with other lines, by upwards of 30 miles. No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the act is ob tained, and power will be applied for to allow interest at 4/. per cent. on all calls from the time of their respective payments, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscrip tions.

The objects intended to beacCOnaPliSifed by this undertaking are— Firstly—The supply of local railway accommodation to the impor tant districts embraced by the line. Secondly—The benefit of railway communication with the metro polis to a district of country upwards of fifty miles in length at pre sent unprovided with that accommodation. Thirdly—The completion of the chain of railway communication between the river Severn and the southern and western counties, and the north-eastern district of the kingdom and the river Member and its ports, including that of Hull. Commencing at the town of Northampton, in conjunction with the London and Birmingham, and the lines of railway proposed to con verge at that town from Cheltenham, and the west from Worcester and from Warwick, the line will proceed in a direct course to the market town of Kettering, by which place all the companies compet ing for the line of railway between London and Manchester propose to pass. It will then proceed also in a direct course to the market towns of Uppingham, Oakham, and Grantham, on to Lincoln. The country lying between the towns of Northampton and Grant bans is wholly without existing or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to the south but also to the north. At Lincoln the line will fork, and proceed, on the one hand, in a northerly direction to the flourishing port of Gainsborough, and, on the other, by a north-eastern course to the market town of Market Raisen, on to the rising port of Great Grimsby. By a union with the Sheffield and Great Grimsby Junction Rail way at Marketßaisen, a direct and uninterrupted chain of communi cation will be established between all the above-mentioned districts and the town and port of Hull. The sources of traffic which this line will secure are various and 7ery considerable ; some of them only can be here enumerated, viz.:— Starting from Great Grimsby, the line will appropriate to itself the whole of the traffic from thence to the metropolis, and also the southern and western districts of the kingdom, and, In addition, it will secure the important and increasing local traffic between that town and Market Raisen and Lincoln. From Gainsborough, the termini of several railways from the north and north-west, this line will carry the tram. to Lincoln, its county town. The traffic from Hull to the metropolis, and also to the west, will enter upon this line at Marketßaisen and proceed thereon to Lincoln. From Lincoln the whole of the traffic passing to the west and the intermediate towns must pass over tlds line. In tLe event of the Cambrld;e and Lincoln Railway Company not obtaining their Bill, then the traffic from Lincoln to the south and west, and also the metropolis, will pass along this line of railway; the former the whole distance, and the latter in any event to Grantham, a distance of about twenty-five miles ; and should the London and York Company not succeed, such traffic will proceed on to Kettering or Northampton. The entire district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance of more than forty miles, and including the market towns of Oakingliam and Uppingham, is without a railway or water-carriage accommodation, and the whole of its traffic therefore will travel over this line of railway, which will be iu the direct course not only to the west but also to London. At Kettering this line will unite with that one of the now com peting schemes passing that town from Manchester and Leicester to London, which shall be successful before Parliament. The country is free from engineering difficulties, with one or two exceptions only, and those are more than counterbalanced by the very favourable gradients of by far the greater portion of the line; indeed for many miles the line will run upon a water level. The line will not interfere with any ornamental property. The landowners on the line are favourable to the undertaking. The promoters reserve power to alter and vary the route, to ex tend the proposed lam of railway, and to increase the amount of ca pital as may be necessary or advisable.

SscierrAßT—Mr. John C. Sommers. In submitting this undertaking to the public, the promoters are influenced no less by a conviction of its importance as a direct con necting line between the important towns of Chichester +aid Ports mouth and the metropolis, than by its grand national importance in affording, a direct communication between the two great military and naval arsenals of Great B itain —Portsmouth and Chatham. The projected undertaking, by proceeding to the two termini at Chichester and Portsmouth. will extend the facilities of communica• thin with the coast branches of railways along the south of England, connecting itself with Brighton to the eastward, and Southampton towards the west. By the main line falling Into the Brighton Rail way the advantage of two termini in Loudon will be secured—the one at the Bricklayers' Arms, and the other at London -bridge—the latter of which, from its proximity to the Custom House, ant the several docks on the Thames, is acknowledged to be the best position ibr a London terminus for merchandise of all descriptions. The line of railway intended to be constructed by th is Company win commence at or near the Redhill station near Reigate, on the Lon. den and Brighton Railway, a distance of 21 miles from London bridge. In its course to Portsmouth it will pass throughor ye n , ea s r to ß u e g i h g t a o te n: .N ewdigate, Cupel, Ockley, Ewhurst, Rudgwick , Cranley, Alf o ld , Blllinghurst, Wisborough-green, Plaisto w, Ha sl eme re, Chiddingfold, North Chapel, Rirdford, Petworth, Ch gro itacton, Westbourne, and Emsworth. at or near which last•mentioned place this projected li e will join the chichester and Portsmouth Rail way to Portsmouth. A branch is proposed to be made ti-em Dorking to join the ma i n line at or near Capel. By this course the entire distance to travel betvr, en London and Portsmouth will be abridged to 73 miles, paelsistand aleesoconsiderablypun rsui : shorter than that by whic h an y line hitherto p ro jectedbe e : e w n e t e ed London and Portsmouth h as p ro p osed to as , an sl Mute more populous a nd p roductive than an y hitherto pr to public notice.

Brighton Railroad at Reigate, this projected Inasmuch as the existing line of railway to Dover branches off from the London and line will open up a communication by railroad bet ween Portsmouth it be sees that the Redhill station, near Reigate, lies nearly i n a di rect line between Porta mouth and:Chatham, and in and Dover. From an inspection of th e ma p , pursu ing the line of communication be tween the last-mentioned na val and military de p ot , this line will pan through or near to the towns of Bletchingley, God s t on, Li mpsfield, Westerham, Seven Oaks , I g htham, Town Mai li n g , wxothate, off. ham, Snodland, Lower Hailing, and Wouldham. The distance between Chatham and Reigate will involve the making of 31 miles of railroad, and the line of railroad between Portsmouth and Chatham will exteni over 82 mu" . To the naval and military establishments of this kingdom the construction of this projected line will afford the most imp o rt an t fa cilities in the transit of troops, stores, baggaget &c., diminishing the tardy course of communication which at present necessarily exists between Portsmouth and Chatham, at present usually extend • ing over the space of two days, and placing them in that direct com munication with each other which, la two hours, or thereabouts, will enable the journey between them to be made. The formation of a direct line of rail way between Portsmouth andj Chatham will afford the opportunity of establishing, by an electric telegraphic, that celerity of communication so important to be obtained between places of national importance. The warm support of the principal landowners on the gre ater part of the line is pledged to this undertaking. The Provisional Committee a bstain from making any special re ference to the contemplated profit to result from ca rr ying into effect this undertaking, feeling convinced that the extent of traffic through the populous and rich districts over which this line and its branches are projected to pass Is sufficiently known, and is decisive of the inutility of all comment in that respect.

This Company is formed for the purpose of constructing a railway in extension of the several important lines which it is intended shall terminate at or near King's-cross, and the line will proceed from thence to a point at or near Farnival's Inn and Holborn Bars, where it is proposed to erect a great central metropolitan terminus. This terminus will form the north front of a considrarable portion of the wide•t part of Holborn, between Leather-lane and Gray's Inn-lane.. The site selected is obviously the most convenient for the concen tration of the traffic of all the railways issuing from London, either to the north or Li a north-eagerly or north-westerly direction. The situation, moreover, presents very great facilities for exten sions, in the direction of the railways, to the east and to the south of London. The property necessary to be taken for the line and terminus is not of a valuable character, and there will be no interference with any existing buildings of any consequence. The surveys are in a state of forwardness, and will be ready to enable the Company to proceed to 1 - '6rliament next session. The capital has been fixed at 800,0001., bat the estimates hitherto received lead the Committee to expect that a smaller sum may suffice. A preference in the allotment of shares will be given to scrip holders in the Direct Northern Railway, but this Company is esta blished as a separate undertaking.

Commercial Bank of London National Provincial Bank, Bridgend and Cardiff. ENGINEER—CharIes Edward Bnrnard, Esq. This Railway is projected for the purpose of uniting the Rhondda and Ely Vaßies, with the South Wales Railway, at a few miles dis tance from the Port of Cardiff; and to open a new mineral district, ono of the richest and most important in South Wales, which is at present without the means of transit for its immense and valuable products. . It will pass through the central portion of the great coal-field of Glamorganshire, where iron-stone also abounds with the coal in im mense quantities, and l ay i ng, geologically speaking, nearly fl a t, an d, obtainable, for the Most part, by proper levels. The coal in addition to its being of excell ent quality for iron making, as i s prove d at Mer thyr and Aberdare, is also, like that of those distriots, 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 tar 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 traits 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 Tallies in Wales than the Rhondda, which is cele brated for the abtuidance, quality, and facility of obtaining its pro ductions. 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 airaost excluded. It is intended that the line shall commence at Blaen Rhondda, the head of the Rhondda Valley, and proceed down by a natural pass between the hills at Filed 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 openiag 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 ouch so that it is confidently anticipated that the works will be executed very consiierably under the advertised ca pital. The landowners along the line are favourable to this audertaking, 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 of his subscription. Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained, the affairs of this Company shall be under the control of the Managing Directors, to whom power is given to allot the Shells, and to apply the fluids of the 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 be 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 branch lines, or enter into any arrangements, by amalgamation or otherwise, with any other company or companies, and also to nomi nate the first Directors of the Company. - • In the allottment of Shares, a preference will be given to landowners on the line and other parties locally interested.

The object of the Company is to effect a direct communication, by railway, between Tunbridge Wells and Hastings, and also between Tunbridge Wells and Brighton. The Hastings line (about twenty-six miles in length) will com mence at Tunbridge Wells, and run near Frant, Wadhurst, Lam. brrhurst, Etchingham, Hurst-green, ltobertsbridge, Whatlington, and Battle, having its terminus at the western extremity of Hastings. The Brighton line (about twenty.two miles in length) will com mence at Tunbridge Wells, and take a direct course to Brighton, passing near Mayfield, Retherfield, Uckfield, Little Horsted, and Lewes, where it will form a junction with the line, which is nearly completed, between Lewes and Brighton. The numerous vis.tors and inhabitants of the fashionable water ing.places of Tunbridge-wells, Brighton, and Hastings, wilt thus not merely enjoy the means of rapid communication with each other by railway,—an ad►antage which ought to have been sup plied to them before this,—but will also have, respectively, when the proposed line from London to Tunbridge is formed, a con. tinued and direct railway to the metropolis. The area embraced within these lines of railway is justly re markable for the variety and value of its agricultural produce, being one of the most extensive hop-districts in England, and not inferior in general fertility to any part of the kingdom; and when it is considered that the metropolis is the principal, indeed, it may, almost be said, the exclusive market for its productions, the profits arising from the conveyance of those productions alone must form, (independent of passenger traffic,) a very large source of revenue to the shareholders. Even from the already developed resources of the extensive, wealthy, and populous districts through which the Company's lines will run, the most encouraging estimate of results may be justly entertained, and when the Hastings Dock and Harbour Company (which has already been provisionally registered) shall have carried into effect the proposed improvements, the line from that town to Tunbridge Wells must become one of the most profitable in Eng land, as it will then be the great highway of continental tourists. The route from London to Paris, by Hastings and Dieppe, is de cidedly the most direct, as well as the most interesting, which a glance at the map of Europe will satisfactorily chew. To the towns of Hastings and St. Leonard's, the greatest advan tages must accrue from the establishment of a Railway, bringing them within two hours of the metropolis, and, through it, by the great lines of which it is the focus, connecting them with every por tion of the country. An immense increase in the number of their opulent visitors must necessarily be the consequence, the climate of that part of the coast of Sussex being universally considered equally salubrious as the most favoured parts of Devon. The Company have in contemplation the formation of a branch, from the most convenient point on their Hastings line, to win cheisea and the town and port of Rye, or to connect that line with the Hastings and Ashford coast line ; either of which objects can be =tied out at a very moderate expense, and must considerably increase the value of the principal project. To the inhabitants of Lewes and Brighton, the advantages to be derived from the Hastings line must be great. It will give in creased facilities for the transport of the produce of the districts through which it passes, and will complete the railway communi cation between Canterbury, Maidstone, Chatham, Rochester, and other towns in the county of Kent and Brighton, Chichester, Portsmouth, Southampt in, and other important towns in the western parts of the country. _ _ The existing traffic in passengers and goods (which mast be materially increased by the estab,ishment of railways) are too well known to require a detailed statement in this prospectus, and cannot fail to secure to the shareholders a large interest on the capital invested. A preliminary survey of the country has been made, and no part of it has been found to offer engineering difficulties of more than ordinary character. The liability of the shareholders will be limited to the amount of their subscriptions, and in the allotment of shares a preference will be given to landowners on the respective lines, and other parties locally interested. Power will be given in the Act to allow interest at 41. per cent, per annum, on all calls, previous to the opening of the lines. The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the power of making alterations in the line or branches, and of adopting the atmospheric principle, if advisable. They aro also determined on giving strict attention to economy in the expenditure of the capital, and will thereby be enabled to guarantee low charges for the conveyance of passengers and goods, and there can be no rea. sonable doubt, that when the traffic is fairly developed, the full rate of 101. per cent. will be paid, and a surplus left for branch lines, or of a reduction of tolls, The strong feeling in favour of a direct line, evinced on the part of the public is Hastings and surrounding neighbourhood; the support of the landowners and agriculturists, with the numerous and strong assurances received in favour of an independent Cora pan', leave no doubt of the successful issue of an application to parliament for an Act next session. In order that every attention may be secured to local interests, arrangements are now being made to add the names of gentlemen of influence and property in the counties of Kent and Sussex, to the Provisional Committee. Application for Shares, with a reference, may be made in the form annexed, to the Solicitor, er to the Secretary, pro tem., at the temporary Offices of the Company, No. 76, Basingliall.street, London ; and to the following Sharebrokers :—in London, Messrs.
