This line will pass in a direct course from Tunbridge, via Paddoc wood (thus connecting itself with Maidstone), through the e pttris7 of Brenchley, orsmodn, Goudhutst, Cranbr k, nend. Hawkhurst, Sandhurst,n R e oivendeit, Newenden, Northia B m, an d Playden, to the town and harbour marsh, Beckley', hien,t of adjacent country, at Rye, and it will embrace a large kxtetheadmitted sent unprovided with, and much requiring advanta, of railway transit. The length of the line will be about twenty-five miles, a grt portion of it will ass through a level country, and the remain: • part is free from anpy ma terial engineerang difficulty, or works lik • to require any serious outlay, and it is not expected to be recess: to interfere with any residences or ornamental property. The saving of distance to Rye, and all the other places eMbrat by this line, will be considerable. The capital required is estixiated not to exceed 500,0001. During the last session of Parliament application was made a similar line, partially embracing the same country, when '• was shown in detail, by evidence produced before the Commiti that the contemplated traffic, after deducting 404 per cent. for wc ing expenses, would leave a large per centage upon the inves capital. That line was rejected on the ground that the best di; iti Lion had not been selected, but with an intimation that the por • Rye was entitled to a direct railway communication with the it t . nor of the country, in the best direction towards London. The I sent scheme has been based upon this intimation, taking advent of the merits and defects of which appeared upon that Investigat and as it embraces a more populous and productive country, ; passes in a more direct line to London, and will have the benefit better access to other and more numerous lines, the sources of tr 4 are considerably increased, and there is every reason to believe, 11 what passed dorms the last session, that the present plan wil. favourably entertained by the Legisiatur i e ir to the full benefit ra il wa y communication, e The chief object is to openth ro t t it g e h l) a pou °rto l f fous and productive dist; in the direction of London, t o best ' Point at which it can a itself of the existing and contemplated lines. Tile imports of Rye, particularly coals, with lime and of man ures, are of great importance to the country through which li ne will pass, and a cheaper and better mode of transit win nuincrease the demand for them, and give the opportunity of great nve m ent in the cultivation of the adjacen t c ountr y . r .. e krailway through the heart of the chief hop district of the ki dont, also producing corn, timber, and hop-poles, and communicat at ifs terminus with a great part of the important cattle district Romney Marsh, must be a public advantage. The port of Rye is admitted to be the best outlet and quiel• rout to Paris and to other parts of the Continent, and there eat DO doubt if a direct railway should be made to Rye, with mode improvement in the harbour, that it woeld be much adopted, part cularly as a national and commercial communication with Frei , and by persons travelling on business.

Tavistock —Messrs. Willesford Devonport—W. J. Little, Esq. aid Tucker Cornwall has long been struggling to procure the benefits of rail way communication, but divisions amongst its friends have for several successive years prevented any scheme from being carried out. At length, on the 20th August last, at a full county meeting at Bodmin, presided over by the High Sheriff, it was unanimously resolved :—" That the general interests of the county of Cornwall, as well as of the public at large, absolutely requite that no trunk line should he sanctioned through the county which does not afford the most direct, central, safe, awl continuous railway communication from Falmouth and Penzance to London." This decision, in con junction with the appearance of the scheme of the North Devon Company, has appeared to the promoters of the Great Western and Falmouth Junction railway, to present a favourable opportunity for bringing before the public a Central Line, on the broad guage, which, by the combination of four powerful companies, is now, it may be said, brought almost to the boarders of Cornwall. The Great Western railway, already open to Exeter, is now being extended to Creliton, and from thence the North Devon Company intend to const• net a main line to join their north and south Devon line, in the neighbourhood of llatitesleigh, thirty miles directly west front Exeter, and about seventy miles from Falmouth. The Great Western and Falmouth Junction Railway will com mence near Hatherleigh, and will be about seventy miles in length, and form a direct extension of the line irons Crediton to that place, proposed by the North Devon Company, and will thence proceed by Launces on, Bodmin, and Truro to Falmouth ; and in order to pre serve the old line of communication from Cornwall to Plymouth, ad mitted to be of great local importance, a branch will run from the main line near Bodmin, through or near Liskeard, to join the South Devon and Tavistock Railway, near Plymouth. By means of this railway, and the North Devon, Crtdidto 'and Exeter, Bristol and Exeter, and Great Western Railways, there will be a direct and unbi oken line oa the broad gauge :from Falmouth through Exeter, to London, on the one hand, and to Plymouth and the South Coast on the other ; and it will also be connected with the railways and canals already existing in Cornwall, and, by branches, with all the most important towns in that county and the North of Devon. It is also intended that the line shall be the best in engineer ing qualities which the natural formation of the country will allow, and that the formidable difficulties, which induced the Board of Trade to report to Parliament against the late Cornwall and Devon Central line, shall be avoided. This scheme has a decided advantage of er any other at present proposed for giving to Cornwall the benefits of railway c. mmunica tion, and is the only line which can with certainty effect the object to which the county became pledged, by the resolution of the 20th of August last—no oilier line affords "direct, central, safe and con tinuous railway comtnuntcaßon from Falmouth and Penzance to London." 'ire Cornwall and Devon Central Railway will not en sure a continuous line from Falmouth to London, until three other independent Companies shall have succeeded in obtaining their Bills ; and these projected lines have also to contend a g ainst the op position of through and integral lines from London to Exeter. The 'a est of England oelow Exeter, is obviously the country of the broad gauge, and there is no probability that Parliament will sanction the introduction of any other gauge into that district, which would be productive of endless confusion and inconvenience. With the South Devon line on the one hand, the projected North Devon line on the other, the Exeter and Crediton and its projected extension westward to Hatherleigh, and the West Cornwall line from Truro to Penzance, all on the broad gauge, and all projected or supported by the Great Western, and its associated Companies—there can be little doubt that no narrow gauge line will be permitted to run parallel with those already sanctioned by the legislature, or proposed for the further accommodation of the country by such influential companies. In order fully to comply with the expressed wishes of the county of Cornwall and to accuse that " direct, central, sate, and continuous railway communication" so much required, the present line has been projected, and will, when completed. form the Central link of the great series of lines already under the direction of the Great Western, and the other associated Companies. It is therefore confidently presumed that no other scheme for connecting Cornwall and West Devon with the Metropolis, and the North of England, can compete with the present line with any probability of success, presenting as this lisle does the prominent points of national and local advantage, and possessing all the elements essential to command the favourable consideration of Parliament. As a work of national importance, it has been long admitted that a line of railway to the important Port of Falmouth must be carried out ; the promoters of this railway do not, therefore, think it neces sary to repeat the here the highly satisfactory results of the traffic over the line, which were long since ascertained. It is sufficient to say, they prove an ample return on the capital to be invested. The survey is in progress, and will be completed in time to apply to Parliament in the ensuing Session ; and the promoters having already received highly satisfactory assurances of support, as well local as general, feel justified in expressing their conviction that their appli cation will be crowned with success. The capital will be divided into 50,C00 shares of 251. each, upon which a deposit of 21. 12s. 6d. per share must be paid upon the allot ment. Power will be taken to pay interest on the deposit, and all calls till the line is opened ; and no subscriber will be liable for more than the amount of his deposit until the Act be obtained, and then not beyon 1 the amount of his subscription. Preference will be given, in the allotment, to landowners, to local applicants, anti to parties holding shares in the Great Western, Bristol and Exeter, Exeter and Crediton, North Devon, and West Cornwall Railways.

Commencing at Birmingham, it is proposed to use the Birmingham and Derby Railway as far as Whitacre, whence a new line, about 29 miles in length, will be made, passing through Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Castle Bennington, ...o the Long Eaton or Sawley Station on the Mid itmd Counties Railway The communication being thus perfect to Nottingham, it will be carried nrward as far as Gainsborough, either by the proposed Not , tingham anti Gainsborough Rail Way, or by a line springing out of the ! line from NottinghaM to Lincoln, for which an Act was obtained by the Fr lolimdlaGnadliCisobnonrotuiegshCtohmis railwaypan lurin w g i the ll p l r a o s e t ee se a ss t i o on ß o r P to a n rli -o a i r i ..r t e h n e t: Humber, or New Holland, in the immediate vicinity of Hull, thereby rendering complete and entire the chain of communication between Birmingham and Hull. By this project the advantages will result to the public of a Direct line from Birmingham to Nottingham, Birmingham to Gainsborough , and from Birmingham to Hull; and by means of the proposed South Staffordshire Junction Railway, and the intended extension to Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Alrewas, a direct line from Wolverhampton and Dudley to Nottingham, and the other towns already enumerated. The support of several companies will be enlisted in favour of the live, which, together with its own merits, will ensure its success in Parliament. As a considerable portion of the line of communication is already made, or in progress, the time required for the completion of this great national undertaking will be materially shortened. Independently of the advantages to be derived by a direct commu nication between the important seaport of Hull and the mining and manufacturing districts of Wanylekshire and Staffordshire, a largo traffic in timber, corn, metals, &c., may be confidently expected. The revenue of the Company, in addition, will be derived from the great thorough traffic from Birmingham and the midland counties to Nottingham and Gainsborough, and the immense traffic from Bir mingham to Hull, theport at which the exports are shipped to Ham burgh, the German States, and the North of Europe ; and from the conveyance of merchandise, agricultural produce, and cattle from the southern, western, and midland counties. A preference will be given in the allotment of shares to landowners on the line, and other local proprietors, as well as to directors and shareholders in railways interested in supporting this undertaking. No subscriber will be liable beyond the amount of the deposit until the Act is obtained, and then not beyond the amount of his subscription. - The usual power will be taken to allow interest at the rate of four per cent. from the time of payment upon each call until the opening of the line. No applications will be attended to without a reference to a member of the Committee, a banker, or the solicitors to this Company. The Subscribers' Agreement and Parliamentary Contract must be executed when the bankers' receipts arc exchanged for scrip certifi cate partyhi due notice will be given ; and the deposits paid by for feited.

LONDON AGENT—James Bryden, Esq. 19, :Sloorgate-street, London The many and important commercial advantages presented by a junction line of railway between the north and south of Ireland, give the promoters of the projected line from Athlone to Sligo, with a branch to Ballina, the most unqualified confidence in its success. The proposed line, as regards botk public interest and private speculation, will very much surpass any other that has been pro jected from Sligo to Dublin—first uniting with the Dublin awl Galway at Athlone, it will pass in a direct line to Sligo, having a branch to Rollins, thereby affording railway communication to the great fair and market towns in the counties of Roscommon, Mayo, and Sligo, and terminating at the important seaport and garrison town of Sligo, where it will also unite with tke line to Enniskillen, and thus form a junction between the northern, southern, and western lines, opening a continuous and the most direct railway communication between the great commercial and manufacturing towns of the province of Ulster, and the cities of Cork, Linierick, Waterford, and Kilkenny, and with Galway, and the other large towns and seaports in the south-east and west of Ireland, and also giving to the counties of Sligo, Mayo, and Roscommon, a line of railway to the metropolis. The Athlone and Sligo Junction will receive the full support of the Directors of the Great Southern and Western, and the Dublin and Galway Railway Companies. Forty miles of the Great Southern and Western Railway from Dublin to Portarlington are nearly completed, and will be opened to the public in June next. At this advanced period of the year the difficulty of , omplying strictly with the standing orders of Parliament renders it advisable to undertake, in the first instance, but one division of the line, viz., that from Athlone to.Roscommon, being a distance of twenty English miles ; for which purpose a capital of no more titan 200,0001. will be required. The line from Athlone to Sligo is but seventy-two miles in length. It will pass through or near the towns of Knockeroghery (at which the second largest sheep fair in Ireland is held), Atilleague, Mount Talbot, Rathgar, Roscommon (one of the largest inland markets in Ireland), Lanesborough, Elphin, Croghan (celebrated fair town), Frenchpark, Boyle, Castlerea, Ballaghadereen, Ballymote, Tablser corry, Colooney, Ballisodare, to Sligo. The preliminary surveys have been made, and the engineer, Sir John Macneill, reports very ' favourably upon the gradients and facilities of construction. Advantages so important as those referred to cannot fail of giving the greatest encouragement to a line of railway which must, from ' passenger traffic alone, return an ample per centage on the outlay of ' capital. It should also be borne in mind that the proposed junction line will not only give to the north of Ireland direct and immediate rail way communication with the south, east, and west, but will li`ae wise open to the great manufacturing towns of Scotland similar ac commodation. Railways having the advantage of foreign traffic as an auxiliary, are always the most profitable—no projected line could be more op portunely circumstanced in that respect than the proposed Grand Junction, forming, as it will, a link between the northern and southern railways, it must, independently of local resources, have a constant stream of passenger traffic from the parent lines at, either end, and eventually he found one of the most profitable, as well as the most useful, undertakings in Ireland. ew lines of railway are possessed of greater local advantages. Sligo, a considerable and rising seaport town on the N. W. coast at the one extreme, supplies the whole of the interior, as far as Athlone, with the products of the western world. Its fisheries and that of the neighbouring coast are atmalg the best in Ireland. The salmon fishery at Ballina, and the deep sea-fishing of Sligo and Inver Bays would alone yield considerable revenue. Athlone. at the other terminus, is a garrison town of the greatest importance, in the very centre of Ireland, from whence it must be an object to have railway communication with the garrisons of Boyle and Sligo ; there cannot therefore be a doubt of the line obtaining the entire support of the Government. Roscommon is one of the most fertile counties in Ireland ; it abounds in agricultural and-mineral produce, and has a population of 253,591 inhabitants. Its great fairs are well known—their staple, the finest horses, horned cattle, sheep, and pigs, in the United King dom; will be conveyed by this line to the Dublin and English mar kets ; and while the farmers will thus have a ready and cheap means of transport for his stock to tile best markets, he will, in like manner, be enabled to supply himself with young stock front the fairs of the south, cast, and west. Large quantities of bacon are cured annually in the towns of Roscommon, Castlerea, Boyle, &c., and it only re quires the advantage of railway communication to develop the many industrial resources of the county.

The Sonthern Junction Railway is intended to form a communica tion.between the Great Western Railway at Slough, and the South- Eastern at Reigate. It will afford the most easy access through the medium of the G re at Western Railw a y to the inhabitants of Reading, Maidenhem, Windsor, Staines, Kingston, Epsom, and the principal intermediate towns, to Dover , Bri g hton, Hastings, and the other watering-places on the coast of Kent and Sussex. Ireland, Wales, Liverpool, Birmingham, Bristol, and the manu facturing Oistricts in the West of England will thus obtain a more direct, less tedious and expensive communication with the Conti nen t than by the way of London. The length of line as proposed will be twenty-seven miles ; and, after a careful examination, no engineering difficulty presents itself, as it runs for more than half the distance on a level, and traverses a country that must be greatly benefited by this project. The Company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentary plans and sections in ample time for complying with the standing orders, and enabling them to apply for an Act in the ensuing session. The shortness of the line, and the quantity of passenger and mer cantile traffic that the line will command, leaves no doubt of an ample return for the investment of capital.

Temporary Mee., 5, Ileatheote-street, Mecklenburgh-square, London. -•-- • • -- TI e object of this undertaking is to form a direct communication between the- important town and port of Carmarthen, the northern parts of the county, and Cardiganshire, with the rich mineral dis tricts in the south and east of Carmarthenshire. The projected line will join the South Wales, Welsh Midland, Car marthen and Cardigan, and Great North and South Wales Railways at Carmarthen. It will be connected at the Great Mountain with the Llanelly Railway already constructed to the. Cross Hands, and a eranch will extend into the Gwendraeth Vale to the Colebrook ironworks, there joining the Ridwelly Canal. It will thus unite several important railways and other means of communication, and afford ready transit for the supply of coal and lime to very extensive districts, the costs of conveying which will be less than the toll pay able on the present roads. The southern terminus of the Great North and South Wales Rail way is at Carmarthen, and no provision is made by the promoters for any communication by It with the coal and lime fields. These ducts, before they are conveyed from C a rmarthen, must first be brought to that town. The South Wales and Welsh Midland Railways describe a consider able circuit in communicating, even in an indirect manner, with the heart of the mineral districts. The distance from Carmarthen by each of these lines to the Great Mountain will be about twenty-five miles ; the distance by the line now proposed will not exceed twelve. It is therefore evident that the immense traffic In coal and lime between Carmarthen and the mineral districts must be carried on by the intended railway. The line will follow the Vale of Tony as far as Cappeldewy, and then diverge, by way of Portbyrhyd and the Mansell's Arms, to the coal district*. The branch into the Gwen draeth Vale will be two miles long, which, with the trunk line, will make the whole length to be constmeed fourteen miles. In consequence of the peculiar featufes of the country, the prO posed line can meet with opposition from no other scheme, as the bold chain of hills running from' east to west to the south of the Nowy are quite impracticable at all other points between Llandilo and the sea, a distance of twenty-five miles. This line will follow the only valley intersecting the hills, which presents the most striking facilities for constructing a railway along it, as none of the gradients will exceed 1 in 100, and there will he no occasion for any tunnelling. The capital required will be 140,0001. Calculations have been made of the tonnage carried along the pre sent roads, and an ample remuneratfon for the capital investedwould be secured even without increased traffic. The South Wales, Welsh Midland, Carmarthen and Cardigan, and Great North and South Wales Railways radiate from Car marthen to the west, north, amt east of the county ; and the latter lines will open comtnunic anon with the whole of Car diganshire. All these extensive districts are no Carmarthew mainly supp li e d with coal and lime from the vicinity of n. The traffic in these staple commodities: :is at present very consider able: as many as 1,000 tons of lime havil passed in one days through a s ingle gate on one of the great thorcsaghfines into mre With the facility of conveyance afforded , b y railways, added to the l ar ge extent of country which will he ones c d b y means of the lines a lluded to, this traffic will be immensely in ere ased, The project was first mooted about ten y„,aes ago' A meeting was held at Carmarthen, attended by a I arse and influential body of gentry, landowners, and merchants. T:G.s olut i on s were then unani measly adopted approving of the scheme, hintingto the country and its value as a safe Investhe the gradientment. Surveys of the out its advantages line were afterwards made, which pron r e d ts were easy, and that the country was free f rom e ngineering Some objections, however, arose, which led to the temporary r. aban donment of the undertaking ; these cabinet gain A b a tion of the scheme. It will meet w ith, the strenu ous support of all signi l a rge body of influential persons have a' treaclyfied their appro the mineral interests in the localities referred to ; and the authori ties, merchants, and influential residents of Carmarthen, to ill will afford inte every support to carry out an undertal ting so beneficial e rests of the town and neighbourhood. The Earl of Candor and the other priced pal landowners on the pro posed line have been consulted, and tluir' consents and approbation have been obtained. The corporation of Carmarthen has :east bad a careful a su view rvey of the river made by an engineer of high standing, with of e ff ec ting material improvements in its n avigation comparative It appe ly ars sm suf all - sum of money, Carmarthen may be re aderport, easily of a fi c i e ntly evident that, with the outlay ed a safeort, accessible to ships of very considerable tot inage, even at neap tides ; the great depth of water in Black Pool a t ebb tide (24 feet) so a sup improving the river s plying all the requisites of a wet dock.

To the ,promoters of this Company this result is. highly satisfast vo or idy, as by these means a considerable outlay of the it funds will be aed. Extensive ironworks are now in opera lion in Greetedt Vale, and others on a large scale are about to be in the Vale of Ammon. The stores of coal and lime are inexhaustible : several important collieries have been lately opened, and are now ready to pour their teeming wealth into the market, but a want of commu nication with the distant districts of this and the adjoining eounties prevents the proprietors reaping the freit of their enterprise. Th e line now proposed, forming a junction at Carmarthen with the great trunk lines, will afford the accommodation so much desired Preparations have been made so as to insure compliance with the s t an ding orders in time to apply for an At% in the oresg session. The gauge to he adopted will depend upon. the repof the Govern ment Commissioners. In order that every attention may be secured to local interests, arrangements are now being made to add the names of other gentle men of property in the county to the provisional committee.
