The Deeds will shortly be removed into the country, of which du notice will be given :DIRECT EAST AND WEST JUNCTION RAILWAY, - COMMENCING AT KIDDERMINSTER AND ENDING AT Iron ore, barytes, and carboniferous and illagtiesiali Milestone on the route, in addition to forming a direct, speedy, and cheap comnittfilert• tiou between the important towns above mentioned. Arrangements have been made with other companies to run into this line ffoin Sheffield. Thiel company reserves the right to raise additional capital•to extend the line to LeetiS. Many of the above-mentioned mineral productions are essential to the mining district's of South Staffordshire and Sheffield. The North Staffordshire and Derbyshire Limestone is much superior to that of South Staffordshire in the fluxion of iron (15 cwt. of the former being equal to a ton of the latter), and producing a better quality of ma terial. At present, the mode Of transit is very circuitous and expen sive, the line from the Caldon Mines having to go by canal round by Etruria, Leek, and the Potteries, to the Dudley and surrounding .furnaces, when, by this railway, it would be taken In a straight line to them ; and the Ashbourne, Cromford, Worksworth, and Bakowell country would have an entirely new trade opened to them. The ironstone in the neighbourhood of Sheffield is also becoming very scarce, and great quantities are introduced from Scotland; the same scarcity exists in South Staffordshire ; and the route of this line would furnish a g e ed supply, at present not worked, and without a market, both north and south. In addition to these great advan tages, a good local market would be opened along the agricultural and other parts of the district at present very badly supplied with lime and coal, and that of an inferior quality, and by expensive car riage. It is, therefore, next to impossible to calculate the immense traffic which would pour down this line and the Derbyshire, Stafford shire; aad Worcestershire Junction Railway. The calculations which have been made show a very large profit. There arc large lead and slate quarries on the lisle which only want an outlet like the one now contemplated to bring them into ftill work. The coal is of a superior quality. There are also extensive barytes and paint-works at Ashbourne, Cromford, and other places on the line. The scenery of Derbyshire is the resort of vast numbers of tourists; and particular care will be taken, in passing of the line near Dovedale, not to interfere with or change its beautiful and romantic character. The convenience, therefore, which this line will afford must necessarily cause a great influx of passengers, both on business and pleasure. demandir along this article the purposes fores The gypsum formation runs from Staffordshire to the Humber, and iiselleinfoo,cibllubile great.dinagri cultural, and manufac turing The thnber from ;he neighbourhood of the Needwood Forest, Banks, Bagots Wood and Kingston Woods, upwards of 4 , 0 0 0 acres, chiefly finds way to the Manchester market by a like objectionable roue of tardy and circuitous canal convey ance ; whereas this line would open a direct, easy, and cheap communication to new markets. The line has been viewed prior to a detailed survey, and there are not more than ordinary engineering difficulties. In consequence of the late Parliamentary decisions, it is intended to make this.line on the broad gauge principle, but the pro moters do not pledge themselves absolutely to do so.

This line will commence at the terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and passing by the Rudyard 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, near Lichfield, communicating there with one of the pro posed lines front Dudley and Walsall. A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct line for the London and Manchester traffic; uniting those two great termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing railways. It will also completely accommodate the local traffic and manufactures, and open several extensive coal fields and some thou sand acres of wood land far the supply of Manchester, the Potteries, and other great marts of the kingdom. Together, too, with the pro posed line from Derby to Crewe, it wilrafferd a transit from the Eastern Counties and Derby to Manchester, and give every accom modation to the Potteries. This line is, in its principal features, much the same asthat already approved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the Churnet Valley Company—will be scarcely 47 miles in length, and passing through the centre of the district, does not interfere with the Grand Junction, or any other existing railway. It is material to re mark, that it is even more direct than the Churnet Valley as formerly projected to Tamworth, and is free from the formidable opposition of the landed interest, and the engineering difficulties consequent on the route by Rocester and Marchington. It must be observed also that it is the only railway which has been brought forward by, and is under the control of, the landowners and manufacturers of theghumet and Blythe Valley districts. The co-operation of most of the principal landowners, from near Uttoxeter to near Lichfield, having been obtained, and there being no competing lines projected through that district, this portion of the line may be considered as secure.

Macgregor, Esq., 26, Suffolk-street, Pall-mall, London. This important line of railway is forty-two miles in length ; will commence at the railway station of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol verhampton Railway at Kidderminster, and will proceed from thence by way of Tenbury and Leominster to Hereford, where it will join the Hereford and Monmouth, and all the other lines of railway which converge from Hereford, and run into the West of England, and the mmensely populous coal, iron, and copper districts of South Wales, and the important districts of Central Wales. The intended railway will, by means of its connexion with the Derbyshire, Worcestershire, and Staffordshire Junction, and that portion of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton which runs from Dudley to Kidderminster, complete the great chain of railway communication between the clothing districts of Yorkshire;the coal and iron ore districts of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, and the large mineral districts of South Wales. At Tenbury it . will form a junc tion with the Worcester rand Porthdynllaen intended railway, and will be the only means of enabling Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Wednesbury, Walsall, Coventry, Dudley, Stourbridge, and the other surrounding towns to avail themselves of the great outlet from Eng land to Ireland by means of Porthdynllaen, the future outport for SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY. The Directors think it desirable to state that they sometime since instructed Mr. Stephenson to prepare for Parliament in the next session a complete system for supplying railway communi cation with the whole of Kent. It is proposed to provide direct lines to Tunbridge, Maidstone, Gravesend, Rochester, Chatham, Faversham, Canterbury, and Dover. The surveys have been for some weeks in progress, and the whole scheme will be very shortly in a complete state. JOHN KIRKLAND, Chairman. South-Eastern Railway-office, July 26, 1845. TE NT VALLEY RAILWAY. 1 Company's Offices, 68, George-street, Manchester, August 21, 1845. Ireland, It will likewise form the nearest route to the north of England, Manchester, and Liverpool from South Wales, and be a direct line from the centre of Wales into the Midland Counties. Thus the coals and other minerals, and the exclusive and constantly increasing iron works of Staffordshire, Worcestershire, and Derbyshire, the manu factures of Lancashire and Yorkshire, the saltworks of Cheshire and Worcestershire, and the agricultural produce of Wales, Hereford shire, South Shropshire, will have a direct and cheap transit. This railway is essential to complete the direct East and West traffic. The traffic of the populous districts embraced by the under taking will afford sufficient remuneration to the Shareholders, and a vast augmentation of revenue which will arise from the through traf fic, will make the stock of the Company produce nine per cent. So convinced was an important Railway Company of the great traffic which would run upon this line, that they bought up the pro moters of a similar undertaking at a considerable expense. The line is free from engineering difficulties, and gradients highly favourable. The Directors reserve the power of adopting the atmo sperie principle and wide gauge, if approved of. The preference will be given in the allotment of Shares to persons locally interested in the line, and no Shares will be approptiated except to persons who shall give satisfactory references. • Applications for Shares must be made to the Solicitors of the Com pany, or to Messrs.

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 rn ic kingham 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 asccrtalagd that no engineering dillizulty - 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 Itiriningliam Railway Company ; under a lease, in perpetuity, at four per cent. per annum on the outlay, with a conditional arrange ment ns 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 a pprobation 4.f t h e Committee of Management, with the exception of such as may be required for parties having local interests. _ BANKERS.

Sir John Rennie G. Remington, Esq., C.B. The line of Railway proposed between Uttoxeter and Dudley has been undertaken at the suggestion of several influential parties, as combining (without being a competing line with any railway at pre sent made) all the advantages of several projected lines, with addi tions of no ordinary value. The town of Uttoxeter, in the Dove Val ley, is itself the centre of a rich agricultural district, supplying al ready the markets of Dudley, Tipton, Walsall, Bilston, and Wednes bury, -with cheese, cattle, and agricultural produce, but by a very expensive and dilatory mode of transit. All the proposed lines communicating with Manchester, London, and the Potteries, must necessarily pass to or near Uttoxeter. Already the Chur net Valley, Derby and Stafford, Derby and Crewe, Tean, and Dove Valley, North Staffordshire, Manchester Direct Inde pendent, Leicester and Ashby lines of railway, project a station at Uttoxeter. Assmning either of these former, or some equivalent, to pass this will be the best route from Manchester, Macclesfield, the Potteries, Hull, Sheffield, and the north to the mineral districts of South Staffordshire, and to Kidderminster, Worcester, and South Wales. By the Leicester and Ashby line, which will communicate by its branch to Uttoxeter, traffic of great part of the east of England will be available for Staffordshire and the west. Commencing at Uttoxeter, the line will be carried over favourable ground to Abbott's Bromley, thence to Rugeley, where it will fall into the Trent Valley Railway Station, by Cluumock Chase, along the Rising Brok Valley, to Hednesford, and thence by Walsall across the Grand Junction Railway, through Wednesbury and the mineral districts of South Staffordshire to Dudley ; there it will join all those railways that will connect the Staffordshire coal field with 'Worcester, Ludlow, and Porthdynliaen on the south-west, Aberystwith, Merthyr Tydvil, Swansea, Hereford, on the west and south. In fact, it will unite by the nearest route the east and west of England. Thd line will fall into and cross the Trent Valley, Midlands, and Grand Junction Railway at Walsall, and from Cannock afford direct communication with Wolverhampton (where it will run into the broad gauge railway) from Leeds, and Huddersfield, and the north and cast of England. The population on the line exceeds soomo, and the ordinary traffic arising from internal sources alone is sufficient to maintain the rail way, and afford more than ample remuneration to the shareholders. As a junction line (with the present immensely increasing public favour to railway travelling) it is scarcely possible to compute the amount of passenger traffic, but it must necessarily be very great. Since this line was registered, a company has been formed for ex tending it by a junction at Uttoxeter, to Huddersfield, Leeds, and Sheffield, by way of Ashbourn, and by this means immense mines of lead; iron, stone, and coal of Derbyshire, the products of the paint manufactories and barytes works at Ashbourne, Cromford, &c., will be opened, and with those already in work, find a ready transit to Walsall and Birmingham, Dudley, and Wolverhampton. The in crease of passengers, attracted by ready means of conveyance to the romantic country of Dovedale, and the High Peak, will be necessarily very great. The copper ore, lime, and coal, abounding in the Caldon and the Rilxlen mines, will be transmitted by this line to tile manufacturing districts of Staffordshire, Warwickshire, and South Wales, and it will afford a direct communication between Leeds, Huddersfield, and Southampton, and it will also be the nearest route to Southampton from Manchester, via Uttoxeter, by the London and Manchester Direct Independent Line, or whatever railway should ultimately pass between Manchester and London, as forming the shortest route to the metropolis, a line which, it is now admitted on all hands, must be carried. This Company reserves the right to raise additional capital to com plete the line from Dudley to or near the Droitwich station, on the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway.

The whole of the traffic upon the South Wales line passing to the Eastward of Chepstow will be carried on this line ; added to which the coal and mineral traffic from the Forest of Dean (which, from the Eastern side to Gloucester, has been estimated upon authentic documents and information, at upwards of 300,000 tons ; and from the Western or Lydney and Chepstow side the same amount of traffic may safely be calculated upon), amounting to 600,000 tons per an num (the produce of the Forest alone), mu st an b d an e carried upon the lin i e, independent of the local passenger trac extended trade n the produce of the Forest, w hich will necessarily follow the facilities •offered by the proposed railroad. The revenue from this source alone will give a very handsome di vidend upon the capital to be expended, which is expected will not exceed three-fourths of the intended capital. It is proposed to make branches to the Collieries and Iron Works in the Forest, to the present or any new Ports which may suggest themselves on the Severn; and to make the River Wye, at Chep stow, the port of foreign export, where vessele of any size can enter free from the dangers and difficulties attendant upon the navigation of the Severn, consequent upon the rocks and shilling sands in that t o l nt e to d river. It is intended t o build a bridge across the Severn at Gloucester, which wil in no way obstruct the navigation ready oin this Company in the ex p ense, if they obtain their Act.

The line is twenty-six miles in length, has.no emOneering difficulties ; the gradients and curves are extremely good, and works light. It may with very great confidence be asserted, that there is scarcely a short line of railroad in the kingdom which offers greater advantages to the Shareholders than the present. Pro vision - will be made in: the Act of Parliament which will be applied for in . the next Session to limit the liability of the Shareholder to the amount of his Shares, and to allow four per cent. on the calls.

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, ha7c 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 coin; aratively 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 rksorting sto a com plicated system of branch lines, or materially couflictiug with the in terests of existing companies. The line will commence at the city of Chester, and proceed by way of Trafford, Frodsham, and Presim lirook, to Warrington, once by Lymm and Stretford direct to Manchester. From a point the main line, near Frodsham, a branch will he 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 Otr kenhead. As Manchester, ftont its geographical position, is the centre of rail way communication between Scotland and the most populous dis tricts of England, so Chester, ftom a like cause, is the in•eat 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 manutactu lug dis tricts of England. By the railways connecting Chester with Wrex ham, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester, and South Wales, this will he the nearest route from Manchester to the south western parts of England, and to the minerals 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, as compared with the present circuitous routes by Crewe and by Birkenhead; the former being 52 miles, and the latter 46 miles., while the proposed line is only 34 miles, saving in the one case IS miles, and in the other 1„2 miles, besides the serious inconvenience, loss of time, and expense of passing through Liverpool, and crossing the water at that place. It is confidently expected that this line will be the precursor of another scheme, of no ordinary importance—namely, to render 'hester an efficient port for large vessels. This subject was entertained by Sir John Rennie in 1835, and sub sequently, in the same year, by the late Mr. Chapman, who wrote an able report upon the capabilities of the raver Dee. It was again nvestigated, 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 fully and clearly established. • The entrance channel would commence at Dawpool. which is easy of access (andinflnitely 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 :11l 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 t he proper position natural to so important a city ; to the latter it will give another outlet, by sea, to du thees and ma nufacturing districts, free of the heav y port charges, , risks to which the produce is now subject. It has not been thought advisable to combine the two objects in one company at present, but should it be found requisite, the two may hereafter be amalga mated. Merits of no ordinary degree, therefore, may fairly be claimed for this railway, whether taken in connexion with the proposed docks, eras standing alone, combining as it does all the advantages of auy 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 means of direct and independent communi cation between Manchester and the port of Chester. The line has been carefully s ,,zamined. There are no difficult earth-works to be encountered ; on thh: contrary it will be cheap. and of easy formation. Power is reserve,: to the Committee to de viate from the proposed line in the 'vicinity ,pf Manchester, should ulterior arrangements render it expedient.
