It may be assumed that a national reward is always bestowed, in one shape or other, upon those generous spirits who devote success fully the • energies of their lives to objects of great public utility. But, unfortanately, it too often happens that the public gratitude is not sufficiently aroused till the grave has closed over the public benefactor. The services of Lieutenant Waghorn are of a nature which leave no excuse for transferring to posterity the duty of rewarding them. The daily increasing importance of the relations of England with India renders the overland route between the mother country and her magnificent dependency, of which he was pioneer and the princi pal agent; one of the most remarkable improvements of the time. In fact, not only England, but Europe, and even America, participate in the advantages which Mr. Waghorn's services have secured, and therefore owe an acknowledgement to the individual who first stepped forth in the manner of a forlorn hope to open a path which all may now safely tread. It was at first proposed to establish steam communication between England and India by way of the Cape of Good Hope ; and, in 1827, Mr. Waghorn who was then in the naval service of the East India Company, which subsequently he found necessary to resign, came to this country, at the instance of a committee in Calcutta, and with the express sanction of Lord William Bentinck, and employed himself for two years in furtherance of the scheme. Finding, however, that there we. e insuperable difficulties to the successful prosecution of the Cape route, it was at length determined to make a trialof that by the Red Sea, and Mr. Waghorn was selected by Lord Ellenborough, then President of the India Board, to carry out despatches to Bombay, and report on the feasibility of establishing a regular communication over land through Egypt. This he did, and in this attempt evinced the greatest zeal and determination (such remarkable traits in hie cha racter), by going down the Red Sea in an open boat, the steam ship expected to meet him at Suez having been prevented by an accident from performing her voyage. Mr. Waghorn was now able to determine the relative merits of the two lines of communication, and the result of his observations led him to devote his life to the task of opening the path to India through Egypt. In the prosecution of his plans he visited Bombay. Madras, Calcutta, and other large stations, in order to point out the surpassing importance of this grand object, and then, hastening back 01 Eng land, urged upon the Government and the mercantile community throughout the kingdom the policy of encouraging the enterprise. He continued his unabated efforts till 1833, when, to prove the prac ticability of his plans, he carried out mails to India himself, and brought them back thence three several times entirely unassisted. It is especially deserving of reniark that the facilities Mr. Wag horn has enjoyed from his Egyptian caoabillties and influence have always been used by him for the advantage of his country. In October, 1839, the mails of September, bringing the news of the capture of Ghuznee, and also the Bombay and Calcutta mails of July and August, having reached Alexandria on the day after the English steamer had left that port, Mr. Waghorn obtained the use of a steamer from the Pasha, by which means they arrived in London in time to be answered by the outward dispatch on the 4th of November. In 1837, Mr. Waghorn opened the route through France, thus again further shortening the communication with India by same days. Since then the whole of the overland mail system has been taken under the immediate control of Government, without, however, any compensation having been made to Mr. Waghorn. Before this zealous and enterprising individual stepped forth to devote himself to a task of such niagnitude no part of India could be reached in less than four months. The mails from Bombay new reach England in about thirty-four days, and the regularity with which the overland communication is conducted is the practical de monstration of his original views on the subject, NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSUR ANCE SOCIETY, 26, COBNIIILL, LONDON.

Deposit 11. 2s. per Share. Provisionally registered. The daily increasing export trade of the port of Southampton, and the great facilities afforded to the shipping interest by the completion of the docks, requires that a more direct communication should be made to it from the manufacturing districts, and from the north of England and Scotland. The passing of the Oxford and Rugby, and Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Acts this session, has afforded the facilities of effect ing this communication at very little cost. By making the railway now proposed to be constructed by this Company, from Didcot, on the Great Western Railway, where the Oxford Line terminates, through Newbury, to the Southampton and Gosport Railway, a little south of the Andover station, a distance of only thirty-three miles, the most direct awl the shortest commu nication will be formed from Southampton, by the Oxford and Rugby Railway to Rugby, and thence by the Midland to York and Scotland ; and also from Rugby by the Trent Valley Railway to Manchester, and by the Oxford and Birntingham Line to Birmingham and Liver pool, and by the Oxfo - d, Worcester, and Wolverhampton, to Chelten ham, Worcester, Wolverhampton, North Wales, and Birkenhead. An examination of the map will show that it is only necessary to make this very short line to effect a direct railway communication from Scotland, York, Liverpool, Manchester, and Birmingham, to Southampton, Gosport, Portsmouth, and the Isle of Wight. The evidence lately given before Parliament proves the very large trade that there now is from Southampton. All the steamers from England to Jersey and the Channel Islands, to Portugal, Gibraltar, the Mediterranean, Malta, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, and the East Indies, depart from and arrive at Southampton. Also, it is the most direct and shortest course to Paris, through Havre. Large quantities of fruit, from Greece, Turkey, the Azore Islands, and Por tugal, are brought to Southampton, and also the Ash from Devon shire and Cornwall, all of which would, by this railway, have a quick and easy transit to Oxford, Birmingham, and the manufacturing districts. The local traffic now existing from these districts, and Birming ham, Worcester, Cheltenham, and Oxford to Southampton, Ports mouth, and the Isle of Wight, is very great, and is daily increasing. The names of the Provisional Committee and Officers will be published in a few days. JOHN BETHELL, Solicitor. 78, King William-street. ISLE OF ELY,WISBEACH, AND LINCOLN SHIRE JUNCTION RAILWAY.

CHAIRMAN—WiIIiam Bradley, Esq., Director of the Sheffield and Manchester, and Iludderstleld and Manchester Railways, Manor Oaks, Sheffield. EroatNEsas—Messrs. J. R. and E. Birch, Cannon-row. The obiect of the Company, now submitted to public consideration, Is to afford to the town and port of Wisheaelt, and the rich agr!cal tural district by which they are surrounded, the benefit of the im proved system et inter-communication of which they are now desti tute, and which they have been dewed by the recent rejection of the Ely and Lincoln Railway /sill. The required desideratum will be obtained by the construction of a tine of railway to commence at, or near, the March-station of- the Ely and Peterborough deviation line, to proceed from thence to Wisbeach, and then to Sutton, there to form a junction with the Grand Union Railway, in the event of it having the sanction of the Legislature, and form a direct communica tion with the Metropolis, the midland and manufacturing counties, and complete the chain of railways demanded to develops the traffic and protect the commercial interest of the town and port of Wisbeach. The length of the line is about twenty miles, and traverses a country peculiarly favourable to the formation of a railway, presenting nearly a continuous level between the termini, thus affording facilities which Wilt render the construction of tile works inexpensive, and insure their early completion, with the additional and rare advantage of an economical adoption of locomotive power in working the line. The districts embraced by the undertaking are highly populous, and have a very considerable local traffic, the quantity of grain alone sold in the market of Wisbeach weekly, exceeds 8,000 tons, in addi tion to which, there are extensive sales of flour, seeds, oil-cakes, cattle, wool, coal, and timber, the whole of which would pass along the line, and be productive of a net revenue, which would ensure a return of 81. per cent. upon the capital stock. The survey has been completed, and application will be made for an Act in the ensuing session of Parliament. A large reserve of shares having been made for existing companies, with which the pro posed line will be united, a limited number only are at the disposal of the Directors. The prospectus, with the names of the other members of the Pro visional Committee of Directors, will be issued in the ensuing week, in the interim, applications, in the usual fbrm, with unexceptionable references, may be addressed to the Provisional Committee of Direc tors of the Isle of Ely, Wisbeach, and Lincolnshire Railway, at their temporary offices, 30, Bucklersbury, London.

The main line will commence from the London and Birmingham Rail Kay, near Harrow, and passim; 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 Braokley, will terminate by a Junction with the proposed Warwickshire 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 t uckingham and London and Birmingham Railway Company (for the construction of a linetlrom 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 cr such as may be required for parties having local interests.

The object of this undertaking is to establish the most direct and efficient railway communication that can be formed between Bir mingham and Oxford, connecting by the shortest possible route the whole of the Lancashire manufacturing districts and sea-ports with south of England and its long line of coast in the British Man the net The existing lines afford but a very imperfect and circuitous communication through London, and it is singular that the com peting lines of railway now before the public do not supply the de ficiency or provide for the objects now contemplated. Under these circumstances, there can be no doubt that this railway will confer e ssential benefits on the districts through which it is intended to pass, as well as on the commercial and industrious classes of the north, and a very cursory inspection of the map will satisfy the inquirer that the line is so peculiarly situate as to command an unusually large amount of through traffic, independent of its local resources, which are very great. It cannot fail to be observed, that the Birmingham and Oxford junction will save a considerable distance on the route towards the co ast, besides furnishing to Warwick and Leamington the most p n ?e mi return e direct railway communication for the traffic between those places rate and Oxford, Reading, &c., while the cheapness of construction and andgoo lin d e s , b a t t it v w er u y to l n ow arr : excellence of the gradients will enable the Company to convey pas sengers o o u r l d d a n n o t am r e for the small capital required for this undertaking. The railway will commence by a connexion with the Grand Junc tion Railway at Birmingham, and, proceeding in nearly a straight rates, datos would sine by Warwick and Leamington, fall Into the intended Oxford and Rugby Line, near Fenny Compton ; the entire distance from Bir mingham to Oxford will thus be about 62 miles. The Stratford-on-Avon line which will be constructed simulta neously with the line by Warwick and Leamington, will join the main railway at or near to Xingswood. From Stratford-on-Avon to Aforeton-in-the - Marsh, by an a s enn expensivege rs improvement of the existing railway, a distance of 14 miles, the communication through Stratford will be complete to the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton line, and the Ox f or d, Beading, and the South of England. It is confidently believed that this extension of the Oxford line to the Grand Junction Railway at Birmingham, taking Leamington and Warwiek in its course, will furnish such strong corroborative proof of the public importance and necessity of the Oxford and Rugby line (now promoted by the Great Western Company,) as to Insure its success in Parliament. If the broad gauge should be adopted, ar rangements have been made with the Great Western company to run dispatch trains between London and Birmingham in less than three hours, and also to provide, at low rites, means of conveyance for every description of tram, , whether of passengers, carriages, horses, cattle, or merchandise and minerals, The Provisional Committee, however, promote this measure as one of great national importance, and do not intend it to be contingent in any degree on the success or failure of the Oxford and Rugby Railway, but they will be guided in the final selection of the line, in the principle of construction, and in the mode of working it, by the evidence which may be add uc ed during the present session, and by the result of the applications new before Parliament, as far as they may appear consistent with the experience still to be obtained on the relative merits of the systems. They need only add in conclusion, that if the Oxford and Rugby lino is successful, the caPitaluf 6 00,0001. will be ample, as the coun • try has been eareMly examined.No engineering difficulties exist, and there will be no tunnel throughout the line. The landed interests affected by the proposed railway are favour able,applied for and the Bill will be in the next session of Parliament. REGISTERED.

T. SMITH, Secretary, o PRELIMINARf ANNOUNCEMENT RAILWAY FROM MACCLESFIELD, passing close to the Towns of Leek, Cheadle, and Uttoxeter, to the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield. PROVISIOICALLY REGISTERED. The Line will commence at the Terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and passing by the Bud:yard Reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the Churnet Valley to Consall, thence close to Cheadle and Tean, and by Uttoxeter, Bagots Woods and Abbots Bromley down the Blythe, to a point on the Trent Valley Railway north of Lichfield, communicating near there with one of the proposed lines from Dudley or Wolverhampton. A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct line for the London and Manchester traffic, uniting these two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railways, will completely accommodate the local traffic, and throw open several extensive Coal fields and some thousand acres of Wood land to Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the kingdom. This Line is also in some of its principal features the same as that already approved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the Churnet Valley Company—will not comprise more than fifty miles of Railway, and passing through the centre of the unoccupied part of the district, does not interfere with the Grand Junction or any other existing Railway. This and the proposed Line from Crewe to Derby will also well accommodate the Potteries, giving to that important locality a direct route to London, Birmingham, and the South, to Liverpool and the North, and to Derby and the East, and will also afford a transit for the Eastern counties traffic from Derby to Manchester. The co-operation of almost all the principal landowners from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield having been ob tained, this portion of the line may be considered as secure. A most influential Provisional Committee, consisting of land- owners and manufacturers, and others locally interested, will shortly be published.

Since the formation of the Company for making this railway, and the allotment of the Shares for that part of the line between Chelms ford and Bury, the practicability, paramount importance, and supe rior advantages of its plan have been so unequivocally recognised by the Board of Trade, and by the Committee of the House of Commons for the railways of Esseit, Suffolk, and Norfolk, that the Provisional Committee have determined to now, at once, adopt the extension of their line, originally projected, from Bury to join the Norwich and Brandon line at Thetford ; thereby to complete the shortest and best communication between London and Norwich, in the direction of the old road, through an the chief central towns of Essex and Suffolk, and at the same time to open a very direct communication with the great trunk lines of the north and west. For these important objects, to D 3 secured by an extension of only 12 miles, to connect Bury St. Edmunds and Thetford, the Provisional Committee propose to increase the capital 250,000/., by the issue of 10,000 additional shares ; and, for 11111 particulars of the entire plan, refer to their original prospectus. The Chelmsford and Bary line not having been projected in time to bring it before Parliament in the present session in a substantive form, it has been but imperfectly, and merely incidentally, in opposing other lines, that its merits could be at all brought under the notice of the Board of Trade or of the Committee of the House ; but the strong impression made, notwithstanding, he its favour, is obviously appa rent, both in the reports of the one and in the decisions of the other. The Board of Trade, in stating the considerations upon which it ad vised the rejection of the Norwich Direct line, reported (March 4th, 1 1845) that " It is necessary to advert to a railway called theChelms ford and Bury Railway, projected, but not brought before Parliament, the plan, and section, and traffic tables of which have been submitted to the Board of Trade. This railway appears to us to accommodate a more populous district than that intended to be traversed by the London and Norwich Direct Railway. Its section shows that it may be done at a moderate cost ;" (while) " there is a strong local feeling in its favour, evinced by the memorials which have been re ceived by the Board of Trade from the inhabitants of Braintree, Halstead, Sudbury, and other places between Chelmsford and Bury." The Committee of the House of Commons have since not only rejected the Norwich Direct and Bury and Cambridge lines, but the Chairman (Lord Sandon) previous to giving a decision against the Norwich Direct, took occasion to observe that "the Committee was decidedly in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury scheme." To these public testimonials in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury line, the Provisional Committee have the satisfaction of aiding, that by a special arrangement with the solicitor of the Eastern Counties Railway, they are assured of the concurrence and good offices of that important Company in the formation of their line. In allotting their original Shares, the Provisional Committee ne cessarily rejected numerous applications, of which it may be pre sumed that a considerable number were from parties as highly re spectable as any of those to whom Shares could then be given; and in the distribution of the additional Shares a reasonable preference will be given to original applicants, as well as to original Share holders. Applications for Shares, in the annexed form, may be made to the Secretary, at the Company's Offices, 61, Moorgate-street, Lon don ; to the Solicitors, or any of the Local Agents ; or to the fol lowing brokers :—Messrs.

A recent, but not very Intelligible, complaint and lamentation of the Essex and Suffolk Company may claim a short passing notice. Neither the internal arrangements of a Railway Board with its officers, nor the private conferences of its sub-committees, nor its communications with other boards, are proper subjects for news paper controversy. The Chelmsford and Bury Railway Company have deemed it, on the whole, more satisfactory to appoint an engi neer-in-chief not professionally connected with other local lines more or less opposed to their own : and, iu the exercise of a sound discre tion, have appointed a gentleman whose character as an engineer is of the highest class—whose works in Scotland and the north of Cog laud testify to his practical abilities—whose success before Parlia ment, in carrying his Railway Bills in the present session, has been almost singular—and who has so local engagements to embarrass in the slightest degree his entire devotion to the interests of their line. The personal relations of their late engineer with their late Chair man led, more or less directly, to the resignation of the latter, and with him retired also, upon avowedly mere personal considerations, some of his personal friends. Names may change, but the line remains in all Its integrity, its 111.041 the satne l its position unetuthey, And its resources utilinpaired• LAMERT ON DEBILITY.

EDMUND'S. NOTICE is hereby given that the Act authorising the extension from the Eastern Union Railway at Ipswich to Bury St. Edmund's, has received the sanction of Parliament, and a Company is incorporated for the construction of it, under the title of the IPSWICH AND BURY SAINT ED MUND'S RAILWAY. The part so sanctioned (twenty-six mile: in length) comprehends fifteen miles of the line to Norwich, and the execution of the works has already been undertaken by highly re spectable contractors, within the estimate of the Engineer, and com menced. • The Directors will vigorously push forward the line, so as to open it for traffic in twelve months from this time ; and Parliament willibe applied to in the next session for powers to authorise the con struction of the other portion (thirty miles, or thereabouts, in length), which lies between Stowmarket and Norwich, thereby com pleting a communication between the important towns of Norwich, Ipswich, and Bury, and carrying out the views of the subscribers in forming the - shortest direct line between Norwich and London, as effectually as if the whole project had succeeded this year. To give effect to these arrangements, Proprietors of the Scrip issued for the Extensions are required to forward them to the Offices of the Company, Brook-street, Ipswich, addressed to the Secretary, stating at the same time their Christian and surnames, place of abode, and designation, for the purpose of registry, on the following terms, which have been agreed upon by the Provisional Committee with the Board of Directors, and which they deem both equitable and advantageous to the Proprietors, viz. : They will, on transmitting their Scrip, be registered in the Ips wich and Bury St. Edmund's Railway Company, to the extent of two-fifths of the amount of such Scrip, and receive Shares under the Corporate Seal for the same; and as to the three-fifths, they will remain Proprietors of that portion of the capital in a re-issue of Scrip, on which they will be credited with the deposits already made in respect of it last year, and be subjected to no other call or deposit until a further Act of Parliament is obtained. No other persons are entitled to be Shareholders in the New Com pany than those who are Proprietors of Eastern Union Extension Scrip Shares. The Solicitors are preparing the necessary deeds to enable the Di rectors to carry forward the project in the next session. The receipt of the Scrip Certificates will be duly acknowledged, and on the completion of the Registry, and on the signing of such Parlia mentary documents as are necessary, the registered Shares, and the new Extension Scrip, will be issued to the persons who may transmit those now called in, and claim the conversion announced. It is intended that the Extension to Norwich shall be prosecuted as a continuation of the Ipswich and Bury Saint Edmund's Railway, so that the whole shall constitute one undertaking. The holder of Extension Scrip will forfeit all right and claim to the New Shares in respect of which no such application for registry shall have been received on or before the 10th day of September next, and the person to whom the original Scrip was allotted will be recog nised as the Proprietor thereof. Under the powers contained in the Ipswich and Bary Saint Ed mund's Act, interest at the rate of 4 per sent. will be paid to the shareholders on the deposit and all calls made while the works are in operation—such interest commences from the passing of the Bill on the 21st ultimo. The First Ordinary Meeting under the Act, will take place at the offices of the Company, in Ipswich, on Friday, the 12th day of Sep tember next, when none but registered Shareholders will be entitled to vote.
