White and Borrett, 35, Lin coln's Inn-fields, It was resolved, That as the dispatch to the Governor-General of Tndia, on the subject of railways in that country, has appeared in the newspapers, the following prespectu; be at once issued for the infer- Mation of the public:— PROSPECTUS. • This Company has been formed for the purpose of extending to India the great benefits of internal railway communication. It proposes to effect a commencement of a system which shall have for its object the connexion of the several Indian presidencies with each other, and with the nearest point of intercourse with Europe at Bombay, and at the same time to develope the great and unimproved resources of the interior of the Peninsula. The vast importance of the object has been fully recognised by the East India Company and the Board of Control, who are prepared to undertake such surveys as may be necessary to enable them to take into consideration the general question of railroads in India. • The promoters of this measure have represented to these authori ties that this Company may propably find, on due inquiry, that it will be impracticable to execute the intended roads without a guarantee by the Government of a certain though small dividend, or of some equivalent advantage ; they have therefore much satisfac tion in stating that the Government proposes to depute to India a skilfull engineer, to be associated with others to be appointed by the Goverment of India for investigating the subject ; and when the in formation to be so obtained shall have been received, it will be pre pared to take. into consideration the mode and extent of whatever pecuniary assistance it may be proper for the Government of India to afford towards the execution orprojects of this description. It is understood that the survey of an experimental line will be executed as soon as possible, with the especial sanction and assist ance of the Government, as stated above, by whom the cost of such survey or surveys will be borne, and the requisite arrangements, if any. with the native Governments and the owners of the land will be undertaken. On the completion of these preliminary steps it will remain for the Shareholders to determine whether or not the prospects of the undertaking, as thus ascertained, and the terms assented to by the Government, will warrant the further prosecution of the design. From documents, to which access has been most liberally given by the Directors; of the East India Company,, very exact information has been obtained as to the general engineering character of the in tended lines ; the same authentic source, and the communications of gentlemen long engaged in high political and military service in the Deccan, have supplied the facts on which the following statements are founded. It appears highly probable from these that further in quiries will lead to a most favourable semi`, and issue in the final establishment of the Company on satisfactory data. In that case the Company will be established under a charter from the Government in India, and if necessary a charter from the Crown will subsequently be applied for. In this state of things the Provisional Directors consider themselves justified in laying the proposed undertaking before the public. It has been agreed that the capital ofthe Company shall be fixed at 6,000,0001., in shares of 501. each, making 120,000 shares, upon which it will be re quired that a deposit of 2/. 10s. per share shall be paid at the time of issue. The amount of these deposits will be invested in Exchequer Bills or East India Bonds, or is such other securities as may be con sidered safe ; and as the disbursements of the Great Indian Railway Company will be limited to such expenses as may arise out of pro ceedings necessarily connected with the preliminary surveys, and to such other charges as are incidental to its general management, it may be safely assumed that the interest to accrue on deposits will al most, if not altogether, dehay all the expenses of a preliminary cha racter. If, therefore, it should be hereafter judged to be inexpedient to carry out the present intentions of the Great Indian Railway Com pany, either from the unfavourable reports of the engineer officers, or from the support to be given to the Railway Company by the Ho nourable the East India Company, under the permission of her Majesty's Government, not being considered adequate by a majority of the Shareholders, the deposit of 21. 10s. per share, and the interest which shall have accrued upon its investment, will be returned sub ject to Use payment of all necessary expenses. It is not intended to proceed until after the report of the engineers in India shall have been received, and the result of the investigation duly submitted to the Shareholders, nor in any case is it intended to execute the line, except in portions ; and the calls will only be made with reference to the portions so commenced. It is proposed that the line to be undertaken by this Company shall commence at Bom bay, ascend the Western Ghauts, and pass Ahmednuggur into the valley of the Godavery ; it will then traverse the plains which skirt that river until it has crossed the Manjera, a few miles beyond which it win turn towards the south-east, following a series of connected and fertile valleys, and on emerging from this district, near Kum mummet, it will take a nearly straight course to the Godavery, which it will pass a few miles above Rajamundry, and then proceed to its terminus at Coringa. Four branches will issue from suitable points . . on the main line ; those to the north will terminate for the present at the frontiers of Candelsh, and at Xagpoor, the latter having a sub-branch to Oomrawutty ; these will form the first portions of lines hereafter extending to the Ganges and Calcutta; those to the south will extend to Shoolapoor and Hydrated, and be capable of being eventually continued to Madras. . . From tile great field of India, as yet unappropriated by railway en terprise, this main line has been selected, on account of its great and numerous advantages. It will have a large present goods traffic ; it passes through countries whose susceptibility of improvement will occasion great increase of its traffic; it connects the two coasts; and, with the aid of steam navigation in the Bay of Bengal, will give present speedy communication between the three presidencies, in ad vance of its ultimate effect, their connexion by railway. One terminus is the noble port of Bombay, the other is the only harbour on the Co romandel coast. The route selected by which it traverses the eastern side of the peninsular is certainly the best to be found, and probably • the only one which will not require heavy works and stationary en gines. Itsbranches reach to most important districts and cities, and . . form the first portions of railways of great importance hereafter. It will greatly increase and cheapen the supply of cotton from India to England and China, and strengthen the political influence of England in India and the adjacent countries. The length of the main line and branches will be about 1,300 miles ; the cost, including the apparatus required for the ascent of the Western Ghauts, will probably not reach 6,000,0001. This estimate is founded on careful inquiry into the costs in India of such structures as will be suitable to the circumstances and traffic of the country. The amount of tonnage to be expected on each half of the line is about 250,000 tons per annum, of which the greater part is salt, from tho coast to the interior, and cotton in the other direction. The price of carriage in these parts of India is nowhere less than 3%d. per ton per mile, and then only in the few cases of carts on level roads. The greater part of it is done by droves of small oxen, travelling six or seven miles a day, at a charge of more than Bd. per ton per mile. Since railways can be worked as cheaply in India as in England, and the English charge, which bears a profit, is 2d. per ton per mile, it follows that the English charge can safely be made in India, and will at once ensure the traffic, and bring ample returns to the share holders. The annual receipts calculated on the foregoing data will amount to 1,091,6661., and the cost of working the line, according to the best information which can at present be obtained, will be little more than one-half that sum, leaving a surplus available for a dividend of 8% per cent. These results, though stated in gross and roughly, are founded on careful inquiry, and analysis of information already obtained from the authentic sources which have been before referred to. No injurious competition can in fact interfere with thorn, for only' few commou roads exist, and those of the worst kind; and there are no navigable rivers in any part of the vast dis tricts which the lines will traverse, except fer a short distance near the eastern coast. The foregoing calculation proceeds solely on the goods traffic be tween the coast and the interior. All receipts for passenger traffic, the local trade of the country, and the carriage of troops, mails, and Government stores, are excluded ; they are kept as a reserve of uncertain, though probably large amount, and from the known habits of the population, and the experience ac quired from other instances of improved communication, will no doubt for an ample set-off against any contingent error.

" TVS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALBERT has of late taken great interest in the breeding of the Llama, from which a very fine wool is obtained. The cloth made of this is of a peculiarly soft and agreeable texture, and as some curiosity has been raised by the announcement of the registry of a coat under the new Act, by Messrs. NICOLL, of Regent-street, Tailors to the Court, It may be marked that such was made of this material. The coat Itself is termed the REGISTERED PALETOT, and in its appearance there is nothing very singular beyond a very vn`lemanly neatness and an absence of all unsightly vulgarity. Upon being submitted at Court, it met with high approbation."— Morning Post, April 19. " This garment is so great an introve ment on the old wrap-rascal, that its general acoption by men of taste is inevitable."—The Sun, April 30. " Amongst the registration of designs, according to the new Act, that of a coat is to be found. The notions of securing the particular substance and cut of a coat is cer tainly a new one, but it speaks well for the working of an Act which thus secures the pro Its of a good judgment and well directed ingenuity to those to whom alone it is due."—The Times, April 4. Registered Paletot, two guineas. 114, Regent-street, London, four doors north of Quadrant. GOVERNMENT PROTECTION, under 6 and 7 Vic., cap. 65, for three years, obtained by H. J. and D. NICOLL, COURT TAILORS, 114, Regent-street, London, for their new introduction, the REGISTERED PALETOT, which is a summer overcoat, light In weight, embracing the convenience and comfort of the wrapper of tweed and its moderate price, without its inelegant and universally admitted common appearance. The material is of a peculiar softness, made expressly of the finest Llama wool, and in its fashion is neither trop neglige ni trop habille, but whilst showing to advantage the proportions of the figure, it can not encumber free movement, worn riding or walking; it will also, from the neatness of its form, admit its being used as a light Frock Coat—a desirable advantage in our warmest summer months, or abroad, where heat is found oppressive. H. J. and D. Nicoll, sensi tive to the importance of that vade mecum—a moderate light over coat—in a climate so changeable as that of Great Britain, would not submit to the public the Registered Paletot till themsetves satisfied of its being perfect, and that when used as a pardessus, riding or walking, or as summer frock, the above firm might pledge a reputation, which, g fined by matured skill and honoured by royal patronage, is of some standing. This they can do with safety ; as their new introduction, they respectfully submit, will not compromise that characteristic of an English gentleman, the unassumed neatness of his attire. As a wide extended sale is sought, the very moderate price of Two Guineas is fixed. Respectable firms will alone be treated with relative to an agency for the sale of the Registered Paletot, to whom alone a discount can be allowed.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] —To the Ladies.—lt is uni versally acknowledged by every one of taste that how ever beautiful a woman may be, if her hair is deficient either in quantity, quality, or colour, one of her greatest charms is wanting. A complete remedy for all this is to be found by visiting the establi s h ment of Ross and Sons, and choosing either head-dresses that surpass na ture herself, fronts, bands, or ringlets that assist her, or splendid plaits that, encircling the thin hair, give it all the appearance of a luxuriant growth. The partings are so admirably contrived that the nearest inspection is confounded ; ttie transparency of the web, admitting the skin of the head to be seen through, they may be de scribed as being as light as a feather.—Address Ross and Sons, 119 and 120, Bishopsgate-street, London, who have lately invented the Depinqaitory for cleansing the skin, parting of fronts, &e.
