An Extension of the GRAND 'UNION RAILW t 1 is deter mined upon, from Nottingham to the Terminus of the intended Manchester and Buxton Railway, at Amber Gate. The line will traverse the Great Derbyshire• and Nottinghamshire coal-field, run ning from the Amber Gate-Sta'ion through or near HartseY, Ripley, Codnor, Heanor, Eastwood, Ilkeston, Trowell, Wollaton, and Radford, to the town of Nottingham, and thus passing through a densely populated district, inexhaustible in its mineral resources, and from whence an immense degree of local traffic must be de rived, it will complete by its junction with the Grand Union and the ➢Manchester Itnd Buxton lines, a direct communication between the eastern and north-western parts of the Kingdom. As this line was originally a part of the plan contemplated by the promoters of the Grand Union Railway, and was merely postponed until it should be ascertained that the Manchester. and Buxton Company would carry 'out tiler scheme of extension to Amber Gate, a preference will be given, in the allotment of shares, to the holders of shares in the Grand Union Railway. A Provisional Committee is formed, and a detailed prospectus will be issued in a few days ; and in the meantime, communications may be made to the Provisional Committee, through their Solici tors, Messrs. W. and S. Parsons, jun., Nottingham, of whom further information may be obtained. 26th April, 1845. • THE . GREAT MEDITERRANEAN AND ADRIATIC JUNCTION RAILWAY, - - proposed line is intended to commence at a point on the Great North of England Railway, near Northallerton, taking part of the branch line to Richmond, now before Parliament, and diverging from it a short distance east of its terminus - , thence following the south side of the Tees Valley, up the Greta, over the line of the ancient Roman way to Brough, forward within a short distance of Kirkby Stephen, through the rich valley of the Eden, by way of Appleby, and to join the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway near to Clifton, south of Penrith. Diverting from this line, southward of Stainmore, a branch will proceed through Ravenstonedale to join the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway between Orton and Borrow Bridge. The direc tion of the proposed line is north-west, following the mail-coach route from York to Carlisle, and involving the least sacrifice of distance in connecting together the two great trunk lines of rail way, the eastern and western sides of the island. The distance from Northallerton to Penrith will be sixty-one miles ; of this fifty-live miles will be new railway, which, with the branch to - Orton, seventeen additional miles, will form a total distance of seventy-two miles. Connecting the Cities of GENOA, TURIN, MILAN, and VENICE and completing the COMMUNICATION between the MEDITER. RANEAN SEA and the GULF of VENICE. Capital3o,ooo,ooo Florins Convention, equal to £3,000,000 sterling, in 60,000 Shares of 500 florins, equal to £5O each, of which 40,000 will be allotted in England, the remainder being reserved for Con tinental Distribution.

The capital will be 1,500,000/., In 30,000 shares of fifty pounds each. one - third-500,000/.—of which is placed at the disposal of the Lancaster and Carlisle Board, to be appropriated amongst the parties Interested in that Company. The revenue will be derived from pas sengers travelling from all the eastern districts of the island south of Darling.tos to Scotland, and from the counties of Durham and Nc.r thumberland to Lancashire, and the west of England, and Ireland. In addition to the proceeds from passengers and goods, a very large income will accrue from the extensive mineral resources of the country. A better access will be made to the Lead Mines of Mid dleton-in-Teesdale, and to those in Westmorland. The line will run near a large district of Iron-stone, and become the channel fur the coal of Durham to pass into East Cumberland, Westmorland, the north-west of Yorkshire, and Lancashire north of the Wyre. It will form a junction between the Baltic ports of the Wear and the Tees and the western ports of Lancaster, Fleetwood, and Liverpool. To increase the traffic to these large importing harbours, new docks are now making at Hartlepool, and the Tees river has been declared a "free port" to all vessels. With power to add to their number. ENGINEERS. Sir John Macriett i William Ileitry Smith, Esq. SOLICITORS. Edwin Smith, Esq., Gray's Inn ; Messrs. Lewis and Ford, 28 ; Essex-street, Strand. . . There are no canals in the district, and no direct competing rail ways. The local traffic is now conveyed by carts, while the through traffic is conveyed from Manchester to Newcastle by York on the one hand, or by Carlisle on the other. Stainmore is the route for the agricultural produce of Cumberland passing into the colliery and mining districts of Durham. The general traffic has been estimated to yield an adequate return for the proposed capital. For the purpose of securing the coal trade a Branch will be made from West Auckland to the line between Greta Bridge and Bowes. This Branch will connect Barnard Castle with the Coal District as well as give to that town a road to the south-west and to the Lorth. At West Auckland the Durham coal-field is already open in every direction by railways already formed. The usual clause will be inserted In the Act, for limiting the liability of Shareholders to the amount of their respective Shares. Application for Shares to be made, on a* before Thursday, the t of May, to John IVhitwell, Esq., Honorary Secretary, Kendal, or the Solicitors, as above. • ..,--,-_- ~....„ ,_. „..--(':-/' . .-- '• 1 , ii./.. .. : i, 32 . , ' , ,'; a ' ... :i .

CAMERONIS ADVENTURES.—GeoaIis and Circassia are the true countries of beauty and ro mance, and from being also the natural soil of 44 the true Caucasian variety ' of our species, so enthusiasti cally referred to by the author of " Coningilv," they may be said to possess attractions that shouk i secure for any new work respecting them a most welcome recep tion. We are not therefore surprised at the interest ex cited by the volumes now published, under the title of "Adventures in Georgia, Circassia, and Russia," by Lieutenant-Colonel G. Poulett Cameron. A book of personal adventure is pretty sure to form pleasant read ing, but a narrative of adventure amongst the gallant Circassians, the handsome Georgians, and amongst the half-civilised Cossacks of the Don, must of course be of an extremely entertaining character. There can be little question of the popularity of such a production.

This Line of Railway is projected for the purpose as well of esta blishing a communication by railway along the coast of an important maritime district, as of affording to the rich grazing and agricultural divisions of the county of Lincoln a more cheap and ready access to the London and Yorkshire markets, and of completing the eastern chain of railway communication through this Important county. The advantages offered to the graziers and cattle *traders•of that part of Lincolnshire which supplies both the London and Yorkshire markets with so large a proportion. of fat .stock, and to the towns of Louth, Wainfleet, Alford, and Spilsby, by providing a more certain and ready transit for manufactured goods and articles of merchan dise, cannot be estimated too highly. The productive distriets around these towns would also fully partici pate in the advantages of this communication with the manufacturing and large consuming towns of Yorkshire, to which nearly the entire produce of corn and wool from such districts Is now transmitted by a water carriage, so tedious, expensive, and uncertain of delivery, .as materially to depress the price ,of produce in the markets of these towns, and to place such -produce at great disadvantage as compared with that of other markets possessinx greater facilities of transit. A very considerable return-traffic - in coals from the Yorkshire coal-fields would be obtained, .and this article of absolute necessity, at present supplied to the population of this part of the country, at an expense seriously increased by the difficulties of carriage, would be afforded at a greatlyreduced price. Independently of these local advantages, it is impossible to over rate those of a snore general, and even national character, connected with the projected improvements of the port of Great Grimsby, the locality of which (at the mouth of e Humber) affords facilities su perior to any other port with reference to the Baltic and Bamburgh trades, or to the mails between London and the Northern Continental ports he article of fish alone (in the transit of which every hour's delay is of so much importance), it is calculated that a great pro portion of the supply from the Northern Seas would necessarily be transmitted to the metropolis through this line. The line has also the important advantage of the cordial approval and support of the principal landed proprietors through whose estates it will pass. The country is peculiarly favourable, and the cheap construction, and the excellent gradients of the line, will permit of its being worked at as low a cost as any in the kingdom. The Committee of Dii ection have authority to increase or reduce the Capital, and generally to adopt such measures as they may think necessary for obtaining the requisite Parliamentary powers to form a Company for the construction of the entire railway, or any portion thereof, with such branches and extensions as they may hereafter dud expedient, and to apply the deposits in discharge of any liabilities which they may incur under the general powers vested in them for the prosecution of the undertaking.

Stevens, Esq., 10, White hall, London ; Messrs. Clay and Swift, Liverpool. The object of this undertaking is to establish the most direct and efficient railway communication that can be formed between Ilir- mingham and Oxford, connecting by the shortest possible route the whole of the Lancashire manufacturing districts and sea-ports with the south of England and its long line of coast in the British Channel. The existing lines afford but a very imperfect and circuitous com munication through London, and it is singular that the competing lines of railway now before the public do not supply the deficiency or provide for the objects now contemplated. Under these circum stances, there can be no doubt that this railway will confer essential 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 coast, besides furnishing to Warwick and Leamington the most direct railway communication for the traffic between those places and Oxford, Reading, &c., while the cheapness of construction and excellence of the gradients will enable the Company to convey pas sengers and goods at very low rates, such as would not remunerate an expensive line, but which are calculated to afford an ample return 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 line by Warwick and Leamington, fall into the intended Oxford and Rugby line, near Fenny Compton ; the entire distance from Birming ham to Oxford will thus be about 62 miles. _ _ The Stratford-on Avon line, which will be constructed simultane ously with the line by Warwick and Leamington, will join the main railway at or near to Kingswood. From Stratford-on-Avon to More ton-in-the-Marsh, by an improvement of the existing railway, a dis tance of 14 miles, the communication through Stratford w ill be com plete to the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton line, and the Oxford, Reading, 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 Warwick 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 ensure 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 rates, means of conveyance for every description of traffic, 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 prin ciple of construction, and in the mode of working it, by the evidence which may be adduced during the present session, and by the result of the applications now 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 line is successful, the capital of 600,000/. will be ample, as the country has been carefully examined. No engineering difficulties exist, and there will be no tunnel throughout the line. . The landed interests affected by the proposed railway are very favourable, and the Bill will be applied for in the next session of Parliament.

To the PROPRIETORS of the BRITANNIA LIFE ASSURANCE COMPANY .he establishment of a Mutual A ssurance Branc h, GENTLEMEN,—In calling your attention to the annexed Notice of I beg leave to address a few observations to y ou re l at i ve to th e past transactions , he operations of and the probable result of the prop ose d extens i on of t the Company. That the "Britannia" Company h as en j oye d the decided and (I trust I may be permitted to say) d eserve d appro b a tion of the public, is clearly proved by the unpreced en t e d fact of upwards of 6,000 policies having been issued in the short space o f eight years. In order, however, to show the high degree of credit and influence pos sessed by the Company, it is only necessary for me to state, that two highly respectable and well-established Life Assurance Companies have successively transferred their business to this establishment. The former of these transfers took place in the year 1840 ; the latter in the course of the past year. It is in consequence of this last-mentlOned transfer, which included a large number of Policies effected on the mutual assurance plan, and also in consequence of the numerous applications for Assurances on this plan, which they have hitherto been compelled to decline, that the Directors at length determined on the establishment of a Mutual Assurance Branch, on the plan set forth in the Prospectus, after it had been submitted to, and unanimously approved by, two succes sive General Meetings of Proprietors, specially convened on the occasion. The general objection to Mutual Assurance Societies, that (in their infancy, at least) they do not afford that complete security to the Assured which is supplied by the subscribed capital of Proprietary Establishments, is completely removed in the Mutual Branch of the " Britannia" Company ; for not only are the Mutual Policy-holders protected by the entire subscribed capital of the Proprietary Brandi, but the large and continually-increasing fund, accumulated from the Premiums on 6,000 Policies already effected in that Branch, consti tutes an immediately available fund for the payment of the claims of the Assured, who will thus enjoy all the security afforded by an old established office, and, at the same time, become entitled to all the benefits to be derived from that system of Mutual Assurance which experience has proved to be at the same time the safest and the best. Another serious objection to the Mutual Assurance Plait (as gene rally acted on) is the high rate of premium required to be paid, in the flist instance, in order to form a fund—not only far the paym e nt of the claims, but also for the distributio n of large bonuses among the policy-holders. This objection also is entirely removed by means of the half credit system detailed in the prospectus. For, by allowing half the amount of the first five annual premiums to remain for five years in the hands of the person assured, and applying the bonus (to which he would otherwise become entitled) to the gradual liquida tion of the debt thus incurred with the Company, the policy-holder enjoys the rare advantage of a very low rate of premium, in the first Instance, combined with that of a full participation, eventually, in the profits. In availing myself of this opportunity of congratulating my co shareholders on the extraordinary success which hitherto has at tended the operations of the Britannia Life Assurance Company, I trust I shall, at no very distant period, have still further to congratu late them ou the complete success of the Mutual Assurance Branch, which, after the most anxious care and attention, has been founded on a plan calculated, in every possible way, to benefit and accommo date the public. I cannot, in justice to the Directors, conclude this address without calling your attention to the able and cordial co - operation which has been afforded to me on their part, not only on the present important occasion, but also in every other instance in which their advice and assistance have been needffil for promoting the Interests of the usti tution. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your most obedient servant, PETER MORRISON, Managink Director. Britannia Life Office, 1, Princes-street, Bank, London, 20th March, 1845.

Patronised by her Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Albert, and used in the nursery of Royalty, MEEN FUN ; or, CELESTIAL SKIN POWDER. The celebrated Chinese Cosmetic for preserv ing the complexion, and for rendering the skin white, smooth, and soft. The great value of this cosmetic is, that the ingredients being solely herbaceous, the most delicate complexion can apply it with oat injury, while rough, red and moist skins speedily experience beneficial results. It will be found besides to prevent erruptions on the skin during cold and chilly weather, Another important feature is that of repressing, without detriment to the sanatory condi tion of the user, the truly unpleasant sensation accompanying too copious perspiration. For infants this powder is invaluable, on account of its harmless and soothing qualities. Gentlemen who suffer from the effects of shaving will find a ready alleviate in this cosmetic. The sole Proprietors are Fabian and Co. (late Watson, Fabian, and Co.), 24, Mark-lane, London ; without whose signature on the Labels none are genuine. To be had, wholesale of them, and retail of all respectable Perfumers, Chemists, &c, in town and country, in Boxes, price 3s. 6d. and 7s. 6d. each. NOVELTIES, Ecc. The metropolitan improvements are so rapidly ex tending in every direction, that ere long London must become the most mrgnificent city in the universe. In the gay and lively promenade of Regent-street, there is, how ever, no room for improvement ; all is already so beau tifully constructed, that if a Committee of taste—such as ruled triumphant in the days of George Selwyn—was requested to suggest any alteration in this magnificent thoroughfare, they would be perplexed in the extreme to find the means of adding another charm to its fair proportions. At this outbreak of the London season, the full return of the mingling tides of business, pleasure, and fashion, is in no point of view so strikingly observable as in the expositions which are set forth by the principal trades people of this street, whose stores and show-rooms, counters and windows, now teem with the rich and varied produce of the myriad resources of art and manu facture. In this gay and ever-changing scene, the lugu brious aspect, even of a maison de deuil, with its sombre and stately portals, is not displeasing to the eye, as it subdues the glare and glitter from the gaudy colours which sparkle around in every direction ; and assuredly Messrs. Jay and Co. may congratulate themselves on having made no inconsiderable addition to the conve nience of the public by the formation of their London general mourning warehouse, for the distressing necessity which rendered it formerly incumbent on persons in immediate want of their " customary suits of solemn black" to seek for various articles at different shops is here obviated. Every thing requisite for this m t ri e s n t s f e u l a d p v u a r n p t a o s g e e i e s f here such carefully n c g o led. e l m e c e t nt a T n n h o e t ibm u t prelsleyntinietosenlefeitvoabtlleie that t st acnasualpur accommodationc has e r ; a n s d o i m t a is rea . tarial to families thus sadly circumstanced should so long have been a desideratum in this huge metro.. polls. The French ladies, "to one thing constant never," have recently adopted the English custom of wearing half-mourning; which, without detracting from the respect due to the memory of those mourned for, relieves the sad and solemn monotony of black attire. This has given an increased impetus to the manu facture of several exquisite fabrics in lavender and half-mourning ; but many patterns which_ existed only in colours have been rep ro d uce d expressly for this establishment in silks, muslins, bereges, &c, the effect of which is quite n ove l, an d cannot fail of lks being , admired. There is a great display of figured s mouseline de laines, and millinery, in h a 1 , f o m r o g u a r n n d i i n e g s o w f h i t c h h e are kind more thut graceful ha yet an d elegant than any thi ng be en forwarded to England from the st ores of the Parisian maisons de deuil. If we succeed in passing unscathed through the crowds of carriages which :re ceaselessly rolling to and fro with their gaudy liveries over the broad ex panse glittering in all its gaiety, what splendid shops meet our view on the other side of the street ! The display of waistcoats, robes de chambre, with an inexhaustible variety of vestments, at Messrs. Nicoll, the Court tailors, near the Quadrant, are always attract ing the attention of the modern Maccaronis who listlessly lounge about this street. From the numbers of well dressed men who are met with in their registered pale tots, we should surmise that the Messrs. Nicoll must al ready have profited largely by their invention. This garment is so great an improvement upon the old " wrap-rascal," that its general adoption by men of taste is inevitable. Those who confidently place themselves under the surveillance of these Court
