This Company is established pursuant to the following request and authority - : " We, the undersigned, being interested in the trade of Manchester, and in the shortest and quickest intercourse between London and Manchester, hereby express our conviction that a direct line of rail way between those places will give the public the greatest cheapness, convenience, and speed. " That it is of .paramount importance to the trade, and to the public, that they should not continue dependent for communication with Lancashire upon one, and that a circuitous line of railway. " That the immediate formation of a direct line is essential, because, if delayed, it will become more and more difficult, in con sequence of the branch railways which local necessity will originate. " That an independent trunk line is necessary, to guard the trade and commerce of the metropolis and Lancashire against excessive charges. and the many evils of a rapidly-extending monopoly, " We therefore authorise and request Messrs.

The promoters of this Railway, encouraged by the favourable sup port which has been given to the project, and in compliance with various recommendations they have received, ha-e determined upon the addition of a branch to Birkenhead, which, although it will manifestly tend to the advantage of the Shareholders and the public, will be attended with comparatively little additional outlay. The project will still retain its chief characteristic of a direct railway, and by its connexion, near Warrington, with the Grand Junction Company, is sufficiently comprehensive, without resorting to a com plicated system of branch lines, or materially conflicting with the in terests of existing companies. The line will commence at the city of Chester, and proceed by way of Trafford, Frodsham, and Preston Brook, to Warrington, thence by Lymm and Stretford direct to Manchester. From a point on the main line, near Frodsham, a branch will be taken to join the Chester and Birkenhead Railway, so as to unite Manchester in the most direct manner possible, with the docks now being formed at Bir kenhead. As Manchester, from its geogemadeali position, is the centre of rail way communication between Scotland and the most populous dis tricts of England, so Chester, from a like cause, is the great centre of railway communication between the capitals of Ireland and of Eng land. To connect these two points by a direct and independent line of railway must, therefore, be of the utmost importance, not only in a local point of view, but to the whole commercial intercourse of the country. This line will be the most direct route, by Holyhead, to Ireland, and will be, in all respects, by far the preferable channel of inter course and transit between Ireland and the great manufacturing dis tricts of England. By the railways connecting Chester with Wrex ham, Osvrestry, Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester, and South Wales, this will be the nearest route from Manchester to the south-western parts of England, and to the mineral districts of Monmouth and Glamorganshire. The communication with Bristol, Gloucester, and Exeter will be speedy and direct. On reference to the map, it will be seen that a very considerable distance will be saved by this line, the former being 52 m i les, and the latter 46 m il es , a s compared with the present circuitous routes by Crewe and by Birkenhead;a only 34 miles, s av i ng in the one case 18 miles, and in the ot h er 12 m il es , besides the serious inconvenience, loss of time, and exp ense of p assin g through Liverpool, and crossing the w proposed line is It is confidently ex p ected t hat this line will be the precursor of ano th e r scheme, of no ordinary imp ortance — name l y , t o render whil eter tahtthat place. e Ch e ster an efficient port for large vessels. This subject was entertained by Sir John R enn ie in 1835, and sub sequently, in the same year, by the late M r . Ch apm a n , who wrote an able report upon the capabilities of the river Dee. It was again investigated, in 1837, by Sir John Rennie and Mr. George Remington, and the practicability of forming a good navigable channel for vessels of large burden, together with docks at Chester, was then ffilly and clearly established. The entrance channel would commence at Dawpool. which is easy of access (and infinitely preferab'e, in point of access and safety, to the docks at Liverpool or Birkenhead), for vessels of large burden, during eight hours every tide, both at springs and neaps ; and the cill of the lock would be sufficiently low to admit vessels drawing 20 feet water to enter at all tides. This railway, therefore, in connexion with the proposed docks, will render to Chester and Manchester incalculable advantages. To the former it will restore the proper position natural to so important another outlet, by sea, to the ma nufacturing th e e ct t s wo in m o :ye hereafter risks to which the produce is now subject. It has not been thought heavy port charges, dues, and m il il a c tai advisable e t c 3 d ; u . ; rl t n o g t t o he c districts, o l a m tt b e i r n e i t free t. will he but should it te found requisite , Merits of no ordinary degree, therefore, may fairly be claimed for company be at a P M fe llig en a t - ' this railway, whether taken in connexion with the proposed docks, or as standing alone, combining as it does all the advantages of any other lines, with this great addition, that it will be the high road to the most convenient outport of Manchester, and will be quite inde pendent of any associations or influences that might tend to oppose the growing desire for a moans of direct and independent communi cation between Manchester and the port of Chester. The line has been carefully examined. There are no difficult earth-works to be encountered ; on the contrary it will be cheap, and of easy formation. Power is reserved to the Committee to de viate from the proposed line in the vicinity of Manchester, should , ulterior arrangements render it expedient.

The main line will commence from the London and Birmingham Railway, near Harrow, and passi►g to the north of Uxbridge, will proceed up the Valley by Chalfont, near Amersham and Chesham to Missenden and Wendover, and thence to Aylesbury ; from which place it will extend to Buckingham, and passing near Winslow, and approaching Brackley, will terminate by a Junction with the proposed IVarwickshire and London Railway, near Banbury. In addition to the line above described, it is intended also to con struct a Railway from the central station of the London and Bir mingham Railway at Wolverton to Buckingham, and thence through Bicester to Oxford; and in connexion with the line here proposed, the Bedford, and London and Birmingham Company, intend to make a connecting line between Bedford and Wolverton. The proposed Luckingliam and London and Birmingham Railway Company (for the construction of a line from Wolverton to Bicester) is amalgamated with this Company. Accurate surveys of the country have been taken by Mr. Robert Stephenson, and it has been ascertained that no engineering difficulty of importance presents itself. The undertaking has already received the sanction and support of a very large proportion of the Nobility, Gentry, and Proprietors of land through or near whose property it is intended to pass. It is proposed that these lines should be made with the co-operation, and under the direction and superintendence of the London and Birmingham Railway Company; under a lease, in perpetuity, at four per cent. per annum on the outlay, with a conditional arrange ment as to the surplus profits. It is intended to offer the shares in such proportion as the amount of capital will allow of, to the holders of shares in the London, Worcester and South Staffordshire Railway Company, subject to the approbation of the Committee of Management, with the exception of such as may be required for parties having local interests.

The ELEGAN'i FREEHOLD VILLA of UNUSUAL PRETENSIONS, whici; ADORNS the HILL and the GROUNDS are PARALLEL with the ROAD and PASSING SCENE ALTOGETHER 14 ACRES, ENCIR. CLING the ABODE. Mil. GEORGE ROBINS is much gratified in being selected to OFFER to PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Auction Mart, Loudon, on Tilt/REPAY NEXT, the 21st of August, at Twelve, A FREEHOLD VILLA, which, it may be safely affirmed, for its size, Will not yield to any— thing contemporaneous. It is, in fact, one of THE MOST DELIGHFUL BIJOUX THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE KINGDOM, and the great difficulty that presents itself to the composer is to do it justice without encountering the idea of having too highly coloured the landscape. However this arduous task shall be under taken. BERKLEY LODGE IS HALF WAY ON THE DECLIVITY AT BOUGHTON HILL, and its splendid grounds run parallel to the passing scene of this interesting road. In days of yore Boughton Hill presented a fearful obstacle to enjoy, without alloy, all the accessories this lovely spot had in store. In our boyish days it was accounted an herculean task to reach the summit, but Mr M'Adam, with his powerful mind and road-making powers, soon removed the imaginary difficulty, and that which previously was a fearful ob stacle to encounter, is now a gentle and almost unperceived ascent. Upon this hill now dwells THE INCOMPARABLE VILLA, the property of, and completed in his usual good taste by Henry Wool!right, Eq., of which a moderated account is to follow : THE GARDEN OF ENGLAND and the garden of Kent have been held as synonymous terms ; and it has long since been conceded to this spot, that throughout Kent, it stands unrivalled. It is first seen nestling amid the. ambrosial grounds, with clumps of trees to vary the scene, stretch.: ing their wide and shadowy arms far acros. , the green sward that encompasses it. The natural beauty of thi; position it will not be attempted to describe, because it is fearless:f asserted that it must be seen or it eannot be appreciated; the beaZitiss that press on the enraptured sight, strewed by the hands of Art .trld Nature, combined over this surface, will hold a place in the memory which never can Ise effaced, and ere the visit is half completed. , wfth common assent it will be responded to by all, THAT FAIRY LAND is in view. Of the residence little has yet been said (althoughl art outlay of 6,0001. has just been expended on its completion), and it may be well to observe that, without being encumbered with the nuisance of too large a domicile, there is all and everything that a family (not too large) can desire. It has been erected within the last seven, years, and n hatever can be understood by the comprehensive term "comfort" will be found to hold a prominent place bare ; but WITHIN THIS LITTLE ELYSIUM, is placed a GAZEEBO of NOVEL FORM, and so ingeniously contrived that the beauteous scenery by which it is so entirely surrounded is seen with immensely increased effect. It is really quite impossible to do justice to the tact thstt has pre sided over this great feature cf the abode. Its form is dt.todecagon, there are five windows, each diversifying the scene. . _ The ingenuity that has conceived this happy effort to give ad. ditional effect to the magnificent scene is unquestionable. IT EXHIBITS A PANORAMIC VIEW, THAT YIELDS TO NOTHING THROUGHOUT ENGLAND, softened by the intermixture of features the most romantic and picturesque— " Till breathless, as we grow when feeling mos ; And silent, we stand in thoughts too deep For utterance," it produces an ensemble such as the writer of this imperfectsketch has never before enjoyed. To give an adequate representation i•g quite out of the question—its beauty and its loveliness altogether forbid it, but it may be permitted to observe that THE RIVER MEDWAY AND THE NORE, which is in the distance, is, at high water, on visiting terms with Berkeley Lodge. AN ENGLISH FLEET OF 100 VESSELS has not unfrEquently aided this splendid picture. To return for a moment to the demesne—the grounds are very extensive and luxuriant beyond imagination. There is not a landscape gardener that will not be proud to take a lesson here, and the Proprietor has added so much of ingenuity, and of variety, that the scene never tires—at every turn something new and beautiful is pre. sonted. In the centre is " AN OBSERVATORY 50 FEET IN HEIGHT." WHICH STANDS 350 FEET HIGHER THAN CANTERBURY From this spot Dover and Gravesend are both brought within view, and the coast of France seen without difficulty. THE TERRACE WALK, THAT RUNS PARALLEL WITH THE LONDON-ROAD, is adorned by American shrubs and I lowering plants without number; an ar d r t e operfect this scene there are ri sin g in majestic grandeur In the THE SPLENDID WOODS OF BLEAN (of which this property Includes four acres), to protect the villa fromthe wintry y w i nc h,—the Kitchen Gardens are well planned. and the of fruit and vegetables most abundant. ppl Dispersedly placed, and in excellent taste, are to be seen about the grownds everything that ingenuity and art combined could effect. In one spot is a grotto. Contiguous to it THE ORNAMENTAL WATERS, WITH THREE VESSELS IN FULL SAIL, of solid copper, and wire rigging, and a lit d'eau which Mr. N sp E o N t T is lT a l s E ee S en A d T gt T ot i t l o A , TRAFALGAR -SQUARE." of no Robins will not dishonour by a c om p ar i son with the ordi nary ingenuity, represents a perpetual telegraph and windmill. which never cease their ple • ming vocation. It has consumed MP feet of iron pipe to accomplish this. THE EDDYSTONE LIGHT HOUSE adorns the centre of the waters, in which exist myriads of gold and silver fish. IN short, neither words nor painting can do it adequate justice: we know of nothing comparable with the scene, so as to give it that vivid colouring by which those who have not had ocular demonstration, may recognise its wild phenomena. And now the composer feels that he must compassionate with h readers, and arrive at a conclusion. THE DEMESNE AROUND IT IS 14 ACRES, including the rich paddocks. The offices within and without are corresponding, and the whole in complete apple-pie order. It is four miles from Canterbury; and the society everywhere is pro verbial for its being prone to good fellowship, with lots of sheeting. hunting, and fishing without much trouble.
