At a public meeting of the iron-masters, landed proprietors, and others, interested in the mineral district of South Wales, held at Tredegar, on Monday, the 20th instant, It was moved by JOHN RUSSELL, Esq., of Rises, and seconded by JOHN EVANS, Esq., of Dowlais, and resolved — That the thanks of this meeting are due, and be given, to the depu tation of the Great Eastern and Western Railway Company for their attendance here to-day, and to Mr. Ward in particular, for his very able statement of the views and intentions of that Company; and that it is the opinion of this meeting, the Groat Eastern and Western Railway Company, as the first to project and prove the practicability of direct communication between Merthyr and Here ford, deserves the support of the mineral districts of South Wales. October 24, 1845. SI OUTIIAMPTON w and GREAT WESTERN JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY. The Provisional Committee having entered int* negotiations with the principal companies whose interests are identified with this pro ject, and whose support they were led to expect, thought it desirable to delay the completion of the surveys whilst these negotiations were pending. Having failed, however, to bring them to a satisfactory con clusion,"and being also disappointed in obtaining the efficient assistance of the engineers on whose services they had relied, the Committee have most reluctantly come to the conclusion, looking to the import ance of the hue, and the extreme care as to surveys and plans pro perly required by the standing orders of Parliament, that it is expe dient to postpone the further prosecution of this project until the following session, rather than to endanger its success by errors which must be incident to too hasty an attempt at preparation. The Com mittee have only arrived at the determination thus announced after mature deliberation and with much regret, when they reflect upon the very flattering and substantial expressions of support received from parties locally interested, as well as from the public generally. Entertaining, however, as they do in common with others of no mean authority, a firm conviction that this scheme must eventually receive the sanction of the Legislature, the Committee will not relax their exertions, believing that the step they are now taking will not tend to diminish the confidence of those who have so kindly inte rested themselves in its success.

The vales of the Ogwr (or og,more) Fawr and Ogwr Path, and of the Garw, lying near and nearly parallel to each other, abound in minerals of the most valuable description, but owing to their secluded situation, and, above all, to the want of a cheap and easy communication with the sea, have teen hitherto wholly neglected. In order to supply this deficiency, and to open to the various markets the vast resources which these valleys afford, the above connecting lines of railway have been projected, and by them com munication with the port of Cardiff, Port Talbot, Porthcawl, and every other port in the Bristol Channel, will be effected. The length of the main line will be about 18 miles, and the branches up the three valleys 16, making in the whole about 34 miles. The branches will commence from Blaenogwr, in the vale of Ogwr Fawr, from Blaenogwr, in that of the Garw, from Blaenogwr, in the vale of the Ogwr lath, and will concentrate at Bryn Cethin ; from thence the main line formed by thisjunction:will pass by Llanharren, and join the South Wales Railway near to the port of Cardiff. The whole district of country through which the lines will pass has already been surveyed by highly competent parties, and affords gra dients and levels of the most favourable kind. No heavy cutting, expensive bridges, or embankments, will be required, so that the cheap execution of the proposed lines is perfectly certain. There is on the spot abundance of stone and other materials for the proper execution of the works. The project is supported by powerful local interests, and all the landowners who have yet been consulted have given their sanction and approval. The rising town of Bridgend and its neighbourhood will be greatly benefited by the completion of this undertaking, and a cheap and ready market be afforded for their manufacturing and agricultural produce. It is intended to form a junction with the South Wales Railway near this town. The vales present sites for ironworks; and the establishment of colleries on a large scale will immediately succeed the formation of the road. Twenty-five miles of the line will pass through pro perty abounding in coal, ironstone, blackband, and limestone, all which products have not at present the means of transit to any mar ket whatever. It is confidently anticipated that the investments in this under taking will give a handsome return to the shareholders. No subscriber will be answerable beyond the amount of his deposit until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his sub scription. Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained the affairs of this Company shall be under the control of a Managing Committee, to whom power will be given to allot the shares, and to apply the fimds of the Company in payment of all the expenses incurred in its forma tion, and in the preparation of the plans and sections to be submitted to Parliament. Power will be applied for in the Act to raise any additional capi tal, to extend er abandon tiny part of the line, to make branch lines, or enter into any arrangements, by amalgamation or otherwise, with any other Company or Companies ; and power is hereby given to the registered promoters to nominate the Managing Committee of the Company. In the allotment of shares a preference will be given to landowners on the line, and to other parties locally interested. Prospectuses and maps may be had of, and applications for shares may be addressed, in the ferm annexed, to W. B. James, Esq. soli citor, 5, Baelneliall-street, London, at the temporary Offices of the Company; and at those of the undermentioned brokers; but no ap plications for shares will receive the attention of the Committee unless accompanied by a reference to one or more of the Previsional Committee or solicitor: — London—Messrs: John Shewell and Son, 25, Tokenhouse-yard ; Messrs.

Mr. Wiliam Barker New-street, Hut idarefield. Messrs. Brook and Freeman The object of this undertaking is to form a continu ins line of rail way from Leeds to Liverpool, by extending the lines already made, or sanctioned by Parliament, from their respective b Irmini at Hud dersfield, in Yorkshire, and Bury, for which extension a line of rail way only 25 miles in length is requisite. The proposed line will com mence at the Huddersfield station, between which p lace and Leeds. Parliament has already sanctioned the formation 01 railways, and from Huddersfield the proposed line will proceed by wt ty of Hillhouse' Birchencliffe, and Lindley, and thence along the , /alley between Stainland and Groetland, through Bark'sland, the Val aof Ripponden, and by Rochdale to Bury, in Lancashire, where it wi Ll join the ter minus of the Liverpool and Bury line of railway. In addition to completing a direct communication from Liverpool to Leeds, Hull, and Goole, by the shortest practicaid a route, and by a much smaller outlay of capital, than by any otherl Topased line, it will provide fur a large and important manufactsat ng population, hitherto without the advantage of railway accommodia Lion, an outlet to the south by means of the Huddersfield and the meld Junction Railway, and to Manchester and to North and Smyth , . Lancashire by the railways above mentioned, and by the Leeds: a nd Manchester Railway, by a proposed junction therewith at Rochd; ile. This line, when completed, will, in addition to ; the advantages which it presents as a through line, pass through a stn •cession of val leys thickly studded with mills and manufactories , consuming a large quantity of raw materials and coal, all of whit In are brought from a distance, and transmitting to other districts 1 he produce of their industry, for which purposes a line of railway Pa: is become ab solutely necessary, and there can be no doubt that sea ample return will be realised for the outlay of capital required. The distance between Huddersfield and Rochdale ' by the present line of railway is thirty miles, which by the proposod r gilwaY will be reduced to seventeen miles. The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves right of enter ing into any arrangements with existing railway avnpa Rica that may appear desirable. And power will be taken by the &ct .of Parliament to allow interest to the shareholders at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum on the amounts paid on their shares from th e ref :pective times of payment to the times of opening the railway. Applications for shares may be addressed, in the s abjoined firm, to any of the undermentioned Sharebrokers, viz.—Mes srs.

Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedbergh, and Kirkby Stephen, and thence by the most practicable line to New castle. It will run nearly parallel with the old coach road, which has hitherto been the principal passenger route from Lancaster to Newcastle. It will readily be conceded that great benefits will flow from a direct railway cooimaidcation between the coal-fields and mining districts of Durham and Northumberi.od, and the important tonne and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, awl Lancaster. The entire length of the lino 13 rich in mineral productions--coal, slate, limestone, marble, and other elements of a great local traffic abound, and cannot fail to make this one of the most remunerative projects of the day. A considerable saving of distance between the important towns on the termixi is effected over any existing or pro jected scheme. _ _ _ It will be reserved to the Committee of Management to make such alterations in the line, or the amount of capital required, or other wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the interests of the Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act to the opening of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount of their subscriptions only. _ _ Prospectuses and forms of application for shares nay be had of the Solicitors, and of the following brokers : Messrs.

The formation of a direct line of railway between Hull and the metropolis. 2. The supply of local traffic accommodatiol to the important districts embraced by the line. 3. The benefit of railway communication with the metropolis ex tended to a district of country, west of Grantham, upwards of 50 miles in length at present unprovided with that necaliaaodation. 4. The completion of the chain of ntile ay communication between Bristol, Gloucester, the river Severn, and the s,,itthern and western counties, and the north-eastern Metric ts of the kingdom and the river Humber, and its ports, including that of Hull. b. The connecting of the two Important ports of Hull and South ampton by one continuous chain of railways. Commencing at the town of Northampton, in conjunction with the London and Birmingham, the Northampton, Banbury, and Chelten ham, and the other lines of railway proposed to converge at that town from the west, from Worcester and from Warwick, the line will proceed in a direct course to the market town of Kettering, by which place all the companies competing for the line of railway between London and Manchester propose to pass. It will then pro ceed, also, in a direct course by the market towns of Uppingham, Oakham, and Grantham, to Lincoln. The country lying between the towns of Northampton and Gran tham is wholly without existing or even proposed railway accommo dation, not only to the south, but also to the north. From Lincoln the line will proceed by the shortest and best practi cable course to Hull. The sources of traffic which this line will secure are various and very considerable ; some of them !fitly can be here enumerated. They are, — Starting from Hull the line will appropriate to itself the whole of the traffic thence to the Metropolis, Bristol, Southampton, Glouces ter, Oxford, Cheltenham, and the "whole of the Southern and Western districts of the kingdom, and, in addition, it will secure the very im portant and increasing local traffic between Hull and Lincoln and the intermediate towns. In the event of the Cambridge and Lincoln Eailway Company not obtaining their Act of Parliament, then the traffic from the before mentioned places and Lincoln to the south and west, also to the me tropolis, will pass along this line of railway ; the former the whole distance, and the latter in any event to Grantham, a distance of about twenty-five miles ; and should the London and York Company not succeed, such traffic will proceed further toKettering or Northampton. The entire district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance of more than forty miles, and including the market towns of Oakham and Uppingham, is without railway or water-carriage accommoda tion, and the whole of its traffic therefore will travel over this line of railway, which will be in the direct course not only to the west but also to London. At Kettering this line will unite with that one of the now com peting schemes passing that town from Manchester and Leicester to London which shall be successful before Parliament. From the singularly important advantages which this undertaking presents to the capitalist, as well as to the public at large, the Pro visional Directors do not think it necessary, with reference Ito the supposed traffic or otherwise, to say more than that they fully be lieve that the return will be, upon the capital required, highly re munerative. The country is free from engineering difficulties, with one or two exceptions only, and those are more than counterbalanced by the very favourable gradients of by far the greater portion of the line ; indeed, fir many miles it will ran upon a water level. The use will not interfere with any ornamental property. The promoters have made every necessary arrangement for the active prosecution of the undertaking, and for applying to Parlia ment in the ensuing session. No call will he made, with the exception of the deposit, till the Act is obtained, and power will be applied for in the Act of Parliament, to allow interest at the rate of 4/. per cent. per annum on all calls from the date of their payment, and to limit the liability of each share holder to the amount of his subscription. The landowners on the line are favourable to the undertaking. The promoters reserve power to alter and vary the route, to:ex tend the proposed line of railway to Great Grimsby or elsewhere, and to increase the amount of capital, as may be necessary or ad visable. Prospectases and Plans may be obtained on application to any of the several Solicitors or Local Agents, the Secretary, or to the fol lowing Brokers, viz. :—Messrs.

This Company has been constituted in Pada by the active pro moters of the well-known Pecan's Company (for the Great Northern and Southern line), for the purpose of tendering for the lease of the projected railway from Paris to Lyons. It is c,onfiden•tly expected that the adjudication of the line will be made in Nove; nber next, so that, even if the Company should not succeed in obt aiming the lease, the delay and loss of interest will be trifling. The short time, however, within which all the formalities must be completed, ren4lers it Imperative that the subscription be closed in a very few days ; therefore an early application must be made to en sure attention. Applications for shares are to be n addressed to the Siollcitors, 31, Moorgat.,-street , a nd must be made by filling up ad sending the following printed form, without detaching It from this prospectus.
