SECRETAuT—Frederick Collier, Esq. The entire property of the Regent's Canal Company, extending from Paddington to Limehouse, having been purchased, it is pro posed to form a railway on its site, with au extension from the City-road basin to the vicinity of the General Post-office. The vast importance of this uuderteking, whereby a junction will be effected between all existing and projected railways north of the Thames, combined with the advantage of a gamed City terminus, is too obvious to require comment. By the proposed railway, passengers and goods will be brought into the heart of the City at a great saving of time and expense, and facilities will be afforded for the more expeditious transmission of the mails to most parts of the kingdom. The line will commence at the Great Western Railway ter minus, and will follow the course of the canal throughout, inter secting the London and Birmingham Railway at Camden-town, the proposed London and York and Direct Manchester near Pen tonville, the Eastern Counties at Old Ford, and the Blackwell Railway at Limehouse; traversing the populous districts of Pad dington, Camden-town, Islington, City-road, Hoxton, Kingsland, and Hackney,—terminating at the Regent's Canal Dock at Lime house, a.oining the River Thames, to which there is a wharf frontage of 170 feet. The basins, wharfs, warehouses, and buildings at the City-road, Limehouse, and along the line of canal, will be equally available as at present for the large and increasing local goods traffic now existing on the canal. Surveys have been made of the property required for the pro posed extension, which it is found can be constructed at a com. paratively moderate expense. The object of the Company will be to secure the best accommo dation to the public, and to deal impartially with the present and all future companies who may avail themselves of this line. The property of the present railway companies will be materially im. proved, and a great national work effected, in a manner and at a cost which could be accomplished by no ether means than by the conversion of the Regent's Canal. There are no engineering difficulties of importance to overcome, the approaches to, and the communications across the line, are already established, and a comparatively small extent only of pri vate property will be interered with or require to be purchased, and the completion of the works and the opening of the line may be confidently expected within twelve months after the sanction of the Legislature has been obtained. Applications for prospectuses and shares to be made to the se cretary, Frederick Collier, Esq., at the offices of the Company, Gresham-rooms, Basinghall.street. Parfles who are registered proprietors in the Regent's Canal and in the existing railways and docks connected with this undertaking, are requested to state the fact in their application. FORM OF APPLICATION. To the Provisional Committee of the Itezeitt's Canal Railway Company.

Esq. director of the Mancheeter, Ru3by, and South. ampton 1144/01 This company Is formed for the purpose of establishing direct railway 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, commencing at Lincoln, passing Grantham, Oakham, Uppingham, near to Rockingham and Rothwell, and joining the South Midland Railway between Market Harborough and Northampton ; thus forming, in connexion with projected lines of railway from Hull and Grimsby to Lincoln, and front Northampton to Southampton the connecting link in one uninter. ruptel chain of railway communication from Hull and Grimsby to Southampton, Gosport, and Poole, and the whole of the south western coast of England. (With power to add to their number.) CONSULTING ENGINEER —X. B. Vignoles, Esq., F.R.S. A. ENGINEERS W. C. Mylne, Esq., F.R.S., Principal Engineer to the New River Company; R. W. Mylne, Esq. It will also form the most direct route from hull, Great a rn Grimsby, and the whole of Lincolnshire, Butlandshire, North amp. and part of Leicestershire, to Oxford, Banbury, Chel.P. tenham, Gloucester, Thistol, 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 accommo dation; while 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 prcfitable 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 Granth:..m with the Nottingham, Vale of Belvoir and Grantham, and the Grand Union ; at Oakharn with the Syston and Peterborough ; also with the Boston, Stamford, andThrraingham and London, and Manchester E!*,rect. One gceatarid with, imp o important in ntfeoagosit feature in this r.ailway is, that it does run parallel not n to, any existing line of railway. The ground has been surveyed, and found to be practicable, pre senting for the most part no e . .„ g i neer i, g Satisfactory communice.:tons for mutual co-operation have been opened with the several companies, whose interests will be affected by the proposed line s In the meantime the Committee of Manage ment reserve po.sver to amalgamate with any other company, or deviate from the proposed line, or make such extensions and branches e d they may hereafter deem advisable. The FAihscribers will ba held liable only to the amount of their subscriptions, and power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to allow interest at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum on all calls from the - passing of the Act. In consequence of a great portion of the Shares havirg been already applied for, the period for • application roust necessarily be very limited.

Napier The object of this Company is to establish a direct line of rail way for passengers, goods, and commercial,and agricul tural produce between the harbour of a m t ining, he l t . on the Bristol Channel, and the harbour of Bridport on the ' Eng English Channel, and provide means of inland transit for a large Proportion of the pro duce at present necessarily sent by the dangerous and uncertain passage round the Land's End, and at the same time dto the intermediate rich and populous districts ready and convenient rail way communication. The direct line will be 48 miles in length, and will proceed from Watchct to Taunton, and thence by Hatch Beauchamp, and b Ilminster to Chard, and by Crewkerne and Beaminster to Bridpnryt harbour. A branch will proceed out of the line, about raid-way between Watchct and Taunton, directly to Wiveliscombe. All these towns and their neighbourhoods• are populous and opulent, and many of them very much so, and the localities are remarkable for their richness, fertility, iseauty, and numerous resident gentry. At Wiveliscombe this line will avail itself of the North Devon Railway to Taunton, and also westward; at Taunton it will enter the station of the Bristol and Exeter Railway, and thence proceed to Mangerton, four miles short of Bridport, where it will il3ll Bower, Axminster.gdi T u o r a iß b s unite with the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth, one of the Great Western lines of Railway, and thence proceed on that line to Bridport Harbour. It will also cross the proposed line from Yeovil to Exeter about two mites west of Crcwkerne. The junction of the two Channels was long since deemed an im portant object. To effect it, surveys were successively made for r ship canal by the late Mr. Rennie, Mr. Telford, and other scientific men, who concurred in the importance of such a work in a na tional point of view ; the design was matured, and in 1824 an Act of Parliament was passed ; and it stands recorded as the opinions of Mr. Telford and Captain Nichols, that the canal would afford a remuneration to the subscribers of 16 per cent. on a capital of 1,719,944/. - - The sum required for this work, being so much !els Than that for the Ship canal ; the increased demand of a greatly increased population, and the present vast commercial energies o'f the country, make it manifest that goods may be conveyed by this lw a ra n i dThc ai vint a a t thei f n ar Nded l i e ch ss oli t lns h e a f n ormfr h oem a d lf tAh t i h ei e nirek c o h pea a ind rg io e tno. upon which Mr. Telford Bridgewater, will meet and cross this line near Watchat Tit E SUN, LONDON, FRIOA EVIE . NIIsr6r, OCTOBER 17 1845 No railway, either made, or being made, or projected, will serve the purposes which this important and favoured line will serve. The country it will pass through possesses a population exceed ing 150,000. It leads to marine watering places of much resort— Weymouth, Lyme, and Seaton on the English Channel shore, and Linton, Minehead, and Blue Anchor on the shore of the Bristol Channel. Taunton, which may now be considered the county town of Somersetshire, has always been the market and trading town of the country north.west of it, including Watchet and its surrounding district; the route to which, from London and the nortb, Is through Taunton. A well remunerating passenger traffic may hence be eXpeCted. The country also contains between 80 and 100 mills and fac tories, many of which are worked by steam in aid of water-power, and many more of the proprietors will avail themselves of steam power when coals shall be procurable at a reduced rote by this railway. The millers are most desirous of having the markets of South Wales opened to them. Several influential coal proprietors of South Wa!es are members of the Provisional Committee. The country also possesses several extensive lime quarries, for manure; the lime is burnt with cuim brought from Wales ; the conveyance both of the cuim and lime is at present attended with much expense to the agriculturist. The line will also be of high importance to this agricultural district by opening to it the markets of Taunton, Tiverton, South Alolton, Barnstaple, in the not-it of Devon, Exeter, and London. The towns of Taunton, Ilminster, Chard, Crewkerne, Beaminster, Broy,dwindsor, Brid. port, Axminster, Charmouth, and Lyme Regis, will be connected by the line, and derivo from it supplies of coals, calm, timber, dry goods, and other articles of import. The line will afford to those towns and their populous neighbourhoods, increased facilities of communication with other lines of railroad. The usual prevalence of westerly winds during the winter months is so great as to render the passage round the Land's-end very un certain. The facilities offered by the preposcd railway will obviate such uncertainty, save many hundred miles of dangerous sea pas sage, and more than compensate for the charges attending reship ment at Bridport from Watchet, particularly in the article of Welsh coals, now in great demand in and about London for steam= engines, steam-brats, and other purposes. The harbour of Bridport admits vessels at spring.tides of 350 tons burthen; it receives large supplies of coals, culm, Aix, hemp, Baltic and American timber , iron, sl ate , tallow, staves, and nu. merotts other articles ; which, in the egg' egate, last year, amounted to nearly 40,000 tons, a large portion of which consisted of flax and hemp, for the numerous manufactories of yarns, sailcloth, sacks, nets, lines, twines, and linen goods, which when wrought would pass along the line to the two ports, for shipment, or to other railways. The harbour of Watchet, at spring-tides, admits vessels of 200 tons burthen, and carries on an extensive and important daily trade with the ports of Tenby, LLsnelly, Swansea, Neath, Cardiff, New port, and Merthyr Tydvil, in coals, Cohn, corn, flour, and other provisions, cattle, sheep, salt, timber, slates, iron, and other articles of merchandise ; employing twelve vessels belonging to the harbour regularly and exclusively; one trading with Liverpool. ft has also a considerable corn, malt, flour, and goods trade with Bristol, and employs therein several vessels regularly Both the harbours are capable of being much improved, and belong to proprietors able and willing to improve them to meet the increased wants of the community. The port of Watchet, as it is, has the largest and most important trade on the English side of the Bristol Channel. This Railway will increase that trade fourfold, and therewith its own prosperity. The shore contiguous to Watchet exclusively abounds with lime of the most celebrated description, both for water-works and ex terior building, being the same as the universally known and cele brated Aberthaw lime, which also is on the directly opposite coast; and at and around Watchet are extensive corn arid flour mills, paper mills, and clothing mills. The foregoing facts show that the line must havesirery exten be applied for in the Bill to allow interest at four per cent, per annum on all calls, from the passing of the Act until the opening of the line.

It is not intended to put forward Watchet as a packet station either for Ireland or South Wales; nor does this measure require such aid. No portion of the coast of the Bristol Channel, east of Ilfracombe, can have the slightest pretexsion to be, or be made, a packet station. In the first place, it is obvious that the railway in actual progress from the Government Dock-yard at Pembroke (or Hobbe's Point, 100 miles further down the Bris. tol Channel) will take all the packet trade from the south of Ireland : Liverpool takes Dublin;whilst Ilfracombe (30rniles west of Watchet), and Swansea (directly opposite to Ilfracombe), maintain a regular steam packet passenger and goods traffic; and in the second place, all the harbours on the English side east of Ilfracombe are dry, and for a great length, at low water, the shores being very flat, and to construct a harbour on them, to admit large class steamers and to land passengers at all times of the tide, would, Una impracticable, cost an enormous sum. To hold out expectations that either of them might be such packet station, would for the above reasons be delusive. The extended North Devon line of railways will serve the port of Ilfracombe and its packets. A survey has been made by the engineers, who have reported that the line is easy of construction, and will not interfere with any park. It affords great satisfaction to the promoters to be enabled to announce that the directors of the Bristol and Exeter Railway Company have promised to give this measure their favourable con sideration, and the promoters entertain a sanguine expectation that it will receive their sup,;ort. The neighbouring landowners and gentry are favourable to the measure, and all the merchants and traders both at Watchet and Bridport, as well as the principal ma! proprietors in South Wales, and all persons throughout the line, entertain a high opinion of its merits, and earnestly desire it. Many extensive landowners on the line, whose names do not appear on the Provisional Committee, have yet expressed them selves as friends to the measure. The Act will be applied for next session, and the liabilities will be limited to the amount of subscriptions, and interest at four per cent. will be paid on all calls from the time of payment until the opening of the line. An early allotment of the eiares will be made, and the usual Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract ',must be exe cuted by the Shareholders when called upon.

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 B: ighton. It is contemplated to proceed from the Eastern Counties Rail way at or near Harlow station to Tilbury, crossing the river by a steam flow ing.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 tie 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 national 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 .01 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.

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 mast distinguished approbation and pledges of support from the principal proprietors along the line, and the Corporation of Gravesend have promised their entire sanctim 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 object of this railway is to afford to the inhabitants residing within a circle of about ten m Ics south of the Thames the means of a sofa, frequent, and s,.cedy communication with the heart of the City. It is proposed to have a central terminus In Queen-street, Cheap side, with a direct line of railway over Southwark-bridge to the Ele phant and Castle, and thence by radiating branches to accommodate the localities of Kennington, Brixton, Streatham, Croydon, Clap ham, Balham, Tooting, Mitcham, Walworth, Camberwell, Peckham, Dulwich, Norwood, the Kent-road, Deptford, Greenwich, Black heath, Charlton, Woolwich, Wandsworth, Putney, Mortlake, and Richmoni, completing the chain of communication with the South- Western at Wandsworth, and with the London and Brighton and South-Eastern Lice at Croydon. It is needless to point out in this preliminary announcement the enormous passenger traffic which may he expected on this railway, when it is considered that the portion of the suburbs to which ac commodation is to be afforded contain a population of between seven and eight hundred thousand persons, requiring daily inter course with the City. . . . . . . As this fins will be constructed upon the atmospheric principle, and the present public roads will be adopted as far as practicable, the cost will not bear comparison with that of railways in general, and it is estimated that it will pay to the shareholders of the under takhig a remunerating profit of not less than 10 per cent., even reckoning the conveyance of passengers at the kw rates of from 3d. to 6d. for the whole, or any part of the distance, to say nothing of the enormous traffic in parcels and goods.

By this Company it is proposed to supply railway accommoda tion, through an independent channel, to all the principal towns in Buchinghamohlre, and to many in the other counties through Which the rrojected line is to run, hitherto destitute of this now indispen sable mode of transit. The project known by the name of " The Buckinghamshire Rail way and Oxford and Wolverton Junction" is announced in their pro speetug as being under the direction and superintendence of the Lon don and BirMingham Railway Company, as their lessees in perpetuity, receiving four per cent. on the outlay, with a conditional arrange in, nt as to the surplus profit. From this arrangement it mast be obvious to every one that the monopoly of the London and Birmingham Company, which it was a principal object to destroy, is more strongly secured than before, and the profits which would accrue to an indepenlent line, after payment of the 4/. per cent. interest, is virtually thrown into their hands. In addition to this, the arrangement to make use of the termini of the London and Birmingham Company, together with a considerable portion of their line, reduces the Buckinghamshire Railway in fret to a mere extension of the older company, and confers on the latter the means of absolutely and entirely controlling the traffic, and conse quently the :profits, of the projected line; so that the reservation as to the surplus profits in truth amounts to nothing. The adoption of the projected Buckinghamshire Railway by the London and Birmingham Company proves their consciousness of the necess'ty of a railway commtutication through the country in °loosed to be traversed; and to prevent a continuance of their monopoly, Sal to secure both to shareholders and to parties locally interested sue benefits of an independent line, the present Company has been formed, and has met with the strenuous support of many landed pro prietors in the counties through which it will pass, who have hitherto withheld their co-operation from the Buckinghamshire Railway Company for the reasons enumerated. The line will proceed through or near to Uxbridge, by the Valley of Chalfont, to Amersham and Wendover, and thence to Aylesbury, by Winslow, to Buckingham. • It will take a course from thence through Brockley and Banbury, by Leamington and Warwick, to Birmingham, having the advantage of being the shortest route hitherto proposed between Birmingliain and London.

Sir,—For the last three or four years I have been labouring under a nervous deafness, so much so at times as to be ahnost incapable o; hearing. After trying several very eminent aurists, from whom 1 41, rived scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friena, 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, arid 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 obe dient servant, W. 11. ADAMS. To Mr. W.

The object of this undertaking is to open a direct line of rail. way to connect the Southern, Eastern, and South Essex Railways, by means of a steam ferry from Tilbury Fort to Gravesend, with Tonbridge Wells, Lewes, and Brighton. It is contemplated to proceed from the Eastern Counties Railway at or near Harlow station to Tilbury, crossing the river by a steam floating bridge to Gray . esend, passing by Wrotham to Tonbridge, thence by the South-Eastern Railway to Tonbridge Wells, passing Uckfield to Lewes, and thence joining the Brighton, Lewes, and Hastings Railway to Brighton. An inspection of the map will clearly show the great import_ ante of this railway, whether considered in a local or national point of view, forming, as it will, a most useful chain of local communication for the fertile and populous tracts through which it passes. If will bring the northern and eastern counties, the Mouth of the Thames, and Ncrth Kent,l into direct communication, by way of Brighton with Dieppe and Havre, and thus form, in cmjuction 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 northeastern coun ties, numbering nearly two miliions, will have a direct and easy Communication with the whole of tine populous and important counties of Kent and Sussex, wiThout gin round to London, and thereby i avoidi,g the inconvenience arising front the unconnected Ines north and south of the metropols. The utility of this line to the naval and military service, both in Cm " of peace and war, for the conveyance of troops and stores, is evident. With the existing railways, and those now in pr o g ress in Kent and Sussex, a mo s t complete system of local communication will be eff'ctcd, and as such the protect has been reecived with the moat distinguished approbation and pledges of support from the principal proprietors along the line, and the corporation of Graves end have promised their entire sanction to, and still 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 ac'=s ion of valuable traffic carovit fail to be the result of th' in. creased accommodation thus arardefl t 3 the public, and rendering the undertaking cue of the most iirvrtant as well as, productive lines of railway in that part of Vie country.
