The object of this undertaking is to secure a superior terminus to the railways which have recently been incorporated, or are projected to the south of the City of Glasgow. The Line will commence at a point on the Glasgow, Barrhead, and Neliston Direct Railway, nearly one mile to the south of the City, and will terminate at the Myer Clyde, near the site of the old Wheat Sheaf lairreaaat adjoining to the Chur'cli of Gorbals, with Branches to the Clydesdale Junction and Monkland Direct Railway, or such point an may be deemed advisable. The Lino has been carefully surveyed, and the proposed capital is amply sufficient ; and when it is considered that the terminus will be at the most suitable point between the stone bridge. to be erected at the foot of Stockwell-street, and the iron bridge to be erected at the foot of Portland -street, and that it will be convenient to the Post Of to the new Arcade, and other :places of public resort contemplated with a view to embellish the City and improve the ac cess to the Harbour, and that it will concentrate at this Important point the Railways to Pollockshaws, Barrhead, and Nedston—Kil marnock, Irvine, Ardrossan, and Ayr—Strathaven, Lesmahagow, and Carlisle—Rutherglen, Hamilton, Wishaw, and Lanark—not to speak of the Lines of the Menklands, Lothians, and Edinburgh itself—there cannot be a doubt that, short though this Line be, there are few likely to afford a more ample remuneration to the pro prietors. In allocating the Shares, a preference will be given to the Share and Scrip holders of the Glasgow, Barrhead, and Neilston Direct, Clydesdale Junction, Glasgow, Kilmarnock, and Ardrossan, Glasgow, Staithaven, and Lesmahagow Direct, and Glasgow and Monklands Direct Railways.

Distance, 120 miles. Capital 2,500,0001., in 100,000 Shares of 251. each. Deposit 21. 12s. 6d. per Share. (Pursuant to the Standing Orders of the House of Commons.) The names of a larze and influential Provisional Committee 'will in a few days be published. The object of this railway is to connect, in the most direct course, the important and increasing manufacturing town of Leeds with the Metropolis, the want of which has long been felt, and is too univer sally aeknowledged to need any comment, and it is under this con viction that this important undertaking, after several minute exa minations of the country through which it will pass, has been brought forward. The proposed line will commence at the junction of the Manche - ter and Leeds, and York and North Midland Railways, near Wake field, and will terminate by means of a junction with the Eastern Counties Railway at Bedford, (to which place it is the intention of that Company to extend their line in the sinning session of Parlia ment), and by thus availing itself as far as possible of the existing railways, will complete the most direct and least expensive trunk line, from London to Ueda, York, and Hull. It will pass in its route within all available ,distance of 'Wakefield, Pontefract, Doncaster, Rotherham, East Redford, Nattinghann Newark, Grantham, Melton Mowbray, Oakhain, and Stamford: The importance of such a line is obvious, both from the nature of Its course (embracing, as it does, a most extensive population within its limits) as also from 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 (hy the Nottingham and Lincoln line), and to Sheffield and Galt:she rough (by the Sheffield and Gainsborough line), by a much shorter route than by any existing P.ailways. Independently of the advantages offered to the towns in the several counties through which this Line will pass, the Line in itself consi dered as a direct trunk line between London and Leeds, is sufficient to justify its formation, it being well known that the existing traffic between these two places would produce suelva return on the capital required, as to admit of a dividend, equal •to that of any railway in operation : but when it is borne in mind, that a Company is being formed for the purpose of connecting Glasgow with Leeds by means of a junction.with the York and Carlisle Railway, no better line can be presented to the public, as it will not only effect a direct communica tion from Glasgow and the Western parts of Scotland to London, but would also connect Edinburgh and the Eastern parts of Scotland as well as Durham and Newcastle (by the York and North Midland, and Great North of England Railways), with the Metropolis, which would he considerably shorter than the accommodatioq offered by any other Company, and when cost of construction is considered, there cannot be a doubt but that preference would be given to the Great Leeds and London Direct Railway. 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 the 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 whole of the manufacturing dis tricts 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 an invaluable connexion between the rivers Clyde and Thames. It has been ascertained that there are no engineering difficulties, that the works will be easy, and the gradients remarkably good, and that it will not materially interfere with any ornamental property. The Subscribers will be held liable only to the extent of their first deposits, until an Act of Parliament is obtained, and afterwards only to the amount of their subscriptions. It is intended to run two express or fast trains each way daily, and to give every facility to the public. It is propsed to take power in the Bill to allow interest at 4 per cent. per annum on all calls until the opening of the line, and a so to extend the line to Hertford on tile Eastern Counties line, In the event of that Company not prosecuting their line to Bedford.

The Coventry, Bedworth, and Nuneaton line, which received the favourable report of the Board of Trade, and was before Parliament last session, forms part of the present projected plan for connecting Leicester, Coventry, and Birmingham. The Directors have, by personal inspection, accompanied by their engineer, satisfied themselves of the remarkable facilities presented by the district for executing the greater part of the ::nc ; and from careful investigation the Directors have the pleasure of infJrming rue shareholders that this undertaking cannot fail to prove a profitable investment if supported by local traffic only, and with the certainty that a through traffic from the eastern and western lines, combined with the great advantages afforded by the junction with the Trent Valley for the transit of goods to and from Liverpool, Scotland, Ire land, and the United States, its importance cannot be over estimated. From the extent of population accommodated by this railway —from the convenience afforded to the trade and manufactures of the 3iidiand Counties—from the vast mineral resources of the dis tricts traversed, and from its position in regard to other important, established, and projected railways, the Directors feel confident that it will be amply remunerative to the Shareholder, and highly advan tageous to the public. The capital has been subscribed, and the Parliamentary deeds have been ex - tented, and the preliminary survey completed. A list of a new and highly influential local direction, and a map of the line, will be published in a few days. By o, 11. CASSIN, Secretary pro tem.

This Line, which, subject to the decision of the Gauge Commis sioners, will be constructed on the Broad Gauge principle, will com mence at the Worcegter Station of the Great Eastern and Western Railway, and, proceeding by Redditch and Henley-in-Arden, will tench Warwick and Leamington, and end at Rugby, the terminus of the Midland Counties Railway and of the proposed Rugby and Hunt ingdon Junction Railway. It will communicate with Droitwich, Studley, Alcester, and Stratford-on-Avon. 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 Kidderm inster Railway ; and at Rugby, with the London and Birmingham, the Midland Counties, and the projected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railways. The country through which it will pass, is thickly populated, and Of the richest description. It presents no engineering difficulties, and from its population, its manufactures, and agricultural produce, it possesses sources of such abundant traffic as to render it highly re munerative to the Capitalists. The object proposed is to complete the line of railway communica tion between the Western, 311dland, and, Eastern portions [of the Kingdom, and a glance at the Map of England will show that this will be effected in the most direct manner by the present line ; touch ing, as it will, at one of its termini , a railway running direct from Swansea to Worcester, and at the other, the projected line from Rugby to Huntingdon—from which Point a railway communication has been already provided. By means of this Railway, the Manufactures of all the towns and the agricultural produce of the country contained within its range, as well as the Ports on the Eastern and North-Eastern Coast, will have opened to them a direct and unbroken communication with the great and densely-populated mineral fields of South Wales, as well as the markets of the Northern portion of the principalit y. To the population: along the line as well as to the Midland and Northern portions of the kingdom, this undertaki n g w ill present the most direct communication with those towns of fashionable resort— Leamington and Cheltenham. To the inhabitants of Leamington and Warwick, it will open the most direct communication with the city of Worcester and South Wales, whilst to the inhabitants of Worcester, it will open the markets of the Eastern portions of the country. The Shareholders in the several railways proposed to be joined or intersected, will have a preference in the allotment of shares in this undertaking. No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the Act is obtained, and power will be applied for to allow interest at four pounds per eentum on all calls from the time of their respective payments, and to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscription.

SECRETARY—HiIton Thomas Jenkins, Esq, The geographical position of Worcester has caused its adoption as the point where the broad guage trunk lines of the west arc to have a common terminus. From Oxford the Great Western Company have decided on constructing a line of rail :—another project under the pa tronage of the same powerfill direction is now before the public, uniting Worcester with Warwick ; and, that the broad gauge will be carried from Worcester into Wales, and to the Irish packet stations on that coast, is now no longer doubtful. This undertaking will com plete a series of great aveuues of iron -road, whose ramification from Worcester will render every part of the kingdom directly accessible from that city. Passing up the Severn Vale, where it will disclose a succession of picturesque scenes, it reaches Stourport, and proceeding thence through Kidderminster, arrives at Bewdley. This district is one of the chief seats of our carpet manu factures, and in the towns here named, exclusive of the intervening districts, upwards of 30,00(tersons are located. Leaving Stourbridge a little to the east, the line taken to BridgenOrth, a town enjoying an active inland trade, and possessing woollen manufactures and iron works, that gives employment to a population of about 15,000. Pass ing, through or near to Much Wenlock, Broseley, and Madeley, from which place there will be a branch to Shrewsbury, the line ascends Colebrook Dale, and approaching in its course Wellington and Wem, enters Whitchurch. From this central place a branch will be formed to Norwich via Stoke, forming a junction with the Liverpool and Crewe Railway. The trunk line will continue from Whitchttrch, and passing through or near Malpas, have its northern terminus in the city of Chester. In estimating the probable amount of revenue which the Worces ter and Chester Railway may be expected to yield, many sources of profit present themselves, such are the dense population located along the length of the Severn Vale, and the enriching works of industry in which they are engaged. Amongst the latter may be mentioned the China manufactories of Worcester ; the iron, coal, and earthen ware works at Broseley and other places; the agricultural produce brought to Stourport market ; the inexhaustible fields of coal and mines of iron ore in the vicinity of Colebrook Dale, Ironbridge, and the districts to the east of Shrewsbury generally. In calculating the cost of construction unusual advantages are also obvious. The line traverses a district affording levels of several miles in extent, and with a surface peculiarly favourable. The resi dent population, disappointed by the postponement of promised pro jects, have warmly espoused the present, and the labouring popula tion being familiar with mining operations, will be found better qualified for the execution of railway works here than in many other localities. As a link in the railway network of England, or as auxiliary to existing or projected lines passing in various directions, few schemes hitherto proposed appear to afford greater inducement for investment, or a wider range of accommodation for traffic and travelling. This project constitutes a lengthened link in the chain that will connect Liverpool with Bristol, the grand trunk of the West of England ;—lts southern terminus, Worcester, is the half way station of the London and Port Dynnllaen broad gauge line : by projected lines a direct communication will be afforded west ward to Swansea and Aberystwith, and, eastward, to Warwick and Northampton, Cambridge, Peterborough, Harwich, Lynn, Lincoln, ani Hull. The line has been repeatedly and carefully examined by the Com pany's acting engineer, who reports that the rail for many miles may be laid on the natural level—that the gradients are in every in stance favourable—that the geological structure of the districts to be traversed is equally so, and that the want of such a line of com munication is acknowledged by the interests seated on its proposed course.

By the junction of this line with the Norfolk Railway, and with the lines to Yarmouth and Lynn, this important locality will obtain the shortest and most economical route to all parts of England. This undertaking will prove of incalculable advantage to the agri culturists, to the owners of the large and important mills on the River Bure, and to the maltsters and traders of the district, in tha transmission of their commodities, and by placing them within easy communication of the ports ant places from which coals and goods of every kind consumed in the district, are obtained. The distinction which Cromer has deservedly obtained, as a most delightful watering-place, will now be considerably enhanced by the direct communication thus established between it and all parts of the kingdom. _ . _ The unanimous and most cordial support of the merchants and traders of Norwich is given to this project, as carrying out the prin ciple of direct communication for which they have so earnestly contended. _ . _ _ vv This line will he made with the co-operation and support of the Norfolk Railway Company (the amalgamated Norwich and Yar mouth, and Norwich and Brandon Companies) ; and powers will be taken to ratify agreefSents made with the Directors of that Compaay for leasing it at 4 per cent. per annum on the outlay, and an equal division of the surplus profits. Competent engineers have already surveyed the line, and have re ported most favourably on the project, which is free from engineering difficulty. The greatest care has been taken to select the line which is best for the public interest, and at the same time to avoid Interference with any ornamental property. Application for shares, which, on account of their limited number, can only be attended to from applicants of first-rate respectability, may be made to the Provisional Committee, at No. 3, Cleveland row, St. James's, London, in the following form; or to the Solici tors in London or Norwich, or of Messrs.

It is proposed that the course of this line shall be from the Worces ter station of the Oxford, Worcester, and 'Wolverhampton Railway, to a point near Malvern, where the line will be divided into two branches, the one branch proceeding through or near the parish of Bosbnry (whence there will be a branch to Ledbury) to Hereford, where it will run into the station of the Great Western Company's Monmouth and Heretbrd Railway, and the projected Hereford and Shrewsbury of fdivisiah i e g r ht branchto Gloucester,wi l proceed andft; the,joinpoint ne ß a a r i Malvern, waythe straight Gloucester and Dean Forest Railway near that city. __~__.. This line will puss rather more than half a mile below Great Mal vern, and not far distant from the town of Upton-on-Severn, both of which places are at present entirely shut out from the benefits of railway communication. ........... The country has already been inspected under the direction of the engineer, and it is found that there is no engineering difficulties of a serious charcctcr to be overcome ; and indeed the greater portion of the line presents a course extremely favourable for a railway, the gradients being very easy. _ ieiTthe , ,;o7nt of division at Malvern the Hereford line will cross a Portion of the Malvern range by one or more tunnels, but the whole length of the tunnelling will not much exceed one mile. From the other side of Malvern to Hereford the surface of the country is as favourable as could be desired. The Gloucester line, from the point of division to its terminus, will pass through a country peculiarly favourable, the surface being throughout nearly one continuous level. With regard to the immediate local advantages offered by the proposed railway, it will effect the most direct communication be tween the cities of Worcester and Hereford and Gloucester and Wor cester, and between those cities and the delightful watering place and favourite summer residence of Great Malvern, to which it will also give an easy and expeditious access from other populous but more remote districts. The important market town of Ledbury, with the rich corn, fruit, and hop district around it, will also be brought into closer and more profitable connexion with the three cities ; and it cannot fail to make a considerable addition to the traffic between Worcester and the port of Gloucester. The facilities presented by the proposed railway for increasing and developing traffic in a more general and national point of view are of a very extended character. Joining the Forest of Dean and Mon mouth Railways, it will afford a ready means of transit to South Wales, and by its junction with the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol verhampton line, and with the projected line to Porth Dynllaen, it will give railway communication with the manufacturing and milling districts of the North of England, especially of South Staf fordshire and Worcestershire, and also with North Wales,. and Ire land ; and by means of the Great Wertern Railway, which it joins at Gloucester, it will complete an unbroken broad gauge line from Wolverhampton to Exeter in the one direction, and from Pembroke to Wolverhampton in the other. It will effect a considerable saving in distance between the port of Gloucester and Wolverhamp ton, and all parts of the north ; it will be the nearest possible route from the extreme west of England, and from South Wales to all places north of Wolverhampton. The enumeration of the places and districts to be traversed by the proposed line, and a description of its course, sufficiently indicate a remunerating amount of traffic. It will supply to the Port of Gloucester important and bulky articles of export, drawn from the mining and manufacturing dis - tricts of South Staffordshire and Worcestershire ; and will still further develon the resources of these districts by increased facility of com munication with their natural port. The importance of this branch of the traffic can scarcely be over-estimated ; in one portion of the district alone, viz., between Wolverhampton and Stourbridge, there are about 100 blast furnaces in work, producing nearly 500,000 tons of pig iron annually, and it is admitted that the want of railway facilities has hitherto greatly hindered the development of an im portant export trade from this district. The works at Droitwich and Stoke Prior can furnish any quantity of salt. The carpet manufac tories of Kidderminster, the iron and glass works at Stourbridge, Dudley, and their populous neighbourhood, will also supply an im portant amount of traffic, certainly far beyond that now carried on with the present insufficient means of transit between those places and the district to be affected by the proposed line. The Hereford branch of the line offers to the agriculturists of the counties of Hereford, Radnor, and Brecon the advantages of cheap and ready means of access to their principal markets. It will be an Important advantage to them to have their cattle, corn, hops, fruit, wool, and other produce speedily and cheaply conveyed to the great markets of Worcester and Birmingham, and the towns in the centre of the great manufacturing population of Staffordshire and Worces tershire ; the advantages, too, will be mutual, as the line will afford equal fabilitles for the conveyance of the mineral and manufacturing, produce of the north to the rural districts. The population of the districts affected by the proposed line, rec koning from Wolverhampton to Gloucester on the one hand, and from the same place to Hereford on the other, is not less than 400,000; and from the position of the country traversed, the line mnst be fed by all the railways constructed, or to be formed, on either side. There can, therefore, be no reasonable doubt of the Worcester, Hereford, and Gloucester lino commanding a traffic so considerable as to yield an ample remuneration for the requisite capital. _ _ the usual power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to allow interest at 4 per cent. per annum on the deposits, and no subscriber will be answerable for more than the amount of his deposit of 21. 2s. per share until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his subscription. _ In.the allotment of the shares of the Company, a preference win be given to parties locally Interested, and to the proprietors of shares in those railways with which the present is connected and intended to communicate. Prospectuses may be had, and applications for shares may be ad dressed to the respective solicitors, or at the London offices of the Company, 449, West Strand, London.
