The first object of this line is to connect the town of Birmingham Coventry, and Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest route and to supply an important link of communication between the town of Spalding and the eastern coast, and the western and midland districts. Commencing at the Spalding station of the Norwich, Dereham, Lynn, and Holbeach Railways, the line will proceed by Bourn, Witham, Castle Bythans, South Wythain, and Wymondham, to a point on the Syston and Peterborough line of railway near Melton- Mowbray, thus forming, by the Syston and Peterborough and Mid land Counties Railway. an almost direct route to Leicester, and thence to Coventry and Birmingham by the proposed Coventry, Nuneaton, Leicester, and Birmingham Railway. The projected line will form the most direct communication be tween the eastern and midland districts of the kingdom, and will, by means of the proposed lines acmes the county of Leicester, via Bur ton-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, Norfolk, Shropshire, and North Wales, nearer to each other by many miles than any other line of railway. It will form, with other projected railways, an almost direct line across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwich, on the east, to Aberystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west. The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There is no tunnel ling, cutting, or embanking of any importance necessary; the line from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve miles, is very level, and may be constructed at a small cost. It will secure the advantages of railway communication to a tract of country at present destitute of this accommodation, besides open ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of the means of transit. The central midland districts have felt greatly the want of direct communication with the coast; and this line will at once supply the deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire. It will afford a transit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei cestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon supply from . the north at high prices : it will also secure the advan. tape ef an unlimited supply of lime from the Leicestershire works, to the agricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only supplied at very high rates; and, in return traffic, the midland dis tricts will o'stain the advantage of a direct transit for the stock and agricultural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk. Several proposed lines of railway converge at Smelting, which is the nearest point on the eastern coast for the midland counties, and connected by the River Welland with the German Ocean. The proposed capital will be sufficient for the construction of the necessary works and every subsequent expense ; and the income derivable from the traffic in passengers between Birmingham, Co ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston, the trans port of corn, cattle, and other produce of the great agricultural districts through which the line passes to the principal consuming districts, and of coals, lime, and staple commodities for the inland districts, will be sufficiently ample to warrant the outlay. The Parliamentary surveys have been commenced, and are now in active progress, and contracts have been entered into which en sure sufficient time for compliance with the standing orders.

This line has been projected for the purpose of forming the meal direct communication between Birmiengham Aberystw and the M idlan dthe Coun- sea. ties, and the important and rising pin g of iand coast of Wales. It is intended to commence at the junction of the Welch Midland and Stour Valley Railways (both of which have projected lines to Birmingham), between Kidderminster and Bewdley, and proceed from thence through Cleobury Mortimer to Ludlow, where it will form a junction with the Worcester and Portdynnaen, and Bridgnorth, Ludlow, and Wolverhampton Railways. From Ludlow it will follow the line of the present mail road, along the Valley of the Teme to Knighton, from which place it is intended to throw eff a branch to the Craven Arms, to run into the Shropshire Mineral Railway, which has its terminus at that place. The line will proceed from Knighton to Llanidloes, where it will join the projected Manchester and Aberystwith Railway, and proceed along that line for the re mainder of the distance. The use of all projected lines being thus sought for, the part to be made will not exceed sixty miles ; and as surveyors are already upon the line, the plans, Sto., will all be ready to go to Parliament in the ensuing session. The advantages of the present line over any other projected rail way between Birmingham and Aberystwith are :—That It is the most direct route between the respective termini; that it passes through a district a' present unprovided with railway accommoda tion ; that by it and the Birmingham, Stamford, and Boston lines, a regular chain of railway communication is opened between St. George's Channel and the German Ocean; and by the Great Eastern and Western line a communication is also opened with Yarmouth, Norwich, and King's Lynn ; that it will open the slate mines of Cardiganshire, and the limestone of Radnorshire to Shrop shire, and the whole of the midland counties ; while, on the ether hand, by the branch from the Craven Anna, the coals of Shropshire will be brought into Radnorshire, Montgomeryshire, and Cardigan shire, where that article does not exist, at little more than one-third of its present cost. From these and other sources of traffic it must be obvious that a high rate of interest upon the capital embarked may be depended upon. The line throughout the whole distance meets with the most influ ential local support, ro as to ensure its oemplete success. There era no engineering Meanies of any magnitude, and no ornamental property will be invaded. Should the atmospheric pinci pie be Wily tested and be found to answer, it will be adopted on this line. The responsibility of the shareholders will ho limited to the amount of their subscriptions, and power , will be taken in the Act to allow in terest at four per cent. on the calls. '1 he Committee reserve the usual power to amalgamate with any other existing Company or Companies, to limit or vary the line, as to them shall seem most expedient, in order to carry out the objects of the Company. Prospectuses, with maps and forms of application for shares, may be had from the Secretary, at the Office of the Company, 163, Fen chureh-street ; from the Solicitors and Local Agents; and also from the following Brokers, viz. :.—Messrs.

The object of this railway is not only to afford accommodation to the counties proposed to be traversed, but will also unite with the Brighton and Cheltenham Direct Railway, the Metropolitan Rail weys Junction, the Chatham, Rochester, Maidstone, and Tonbridge Wells Railway, and the Coast Railway. The great importance of this union line of railway will be immediately seen upon reference to the map. It is intended to commence at High-street, in the Borough, passing through Camberwell, where it will divide and take the fol lowing course, viz. : The Kent branch will pass through the thickly-populated parishes of Peckham, Peckham Rye, Lewisham, Bromley, Orpington, Chelafleld, Shoreham, Otford, Kempsing Seal, Wrotham, near Addington, Town Mailing, East Mailing, and Dit ton, from thence to Maidstone, where it will form a junction with the Chatham, Rochester, Maidstone, and Tonbridge Wells Direct Railway. The Surrey and Sussex branch will run through Brixton, Brixton-hill, Clapham, Balham-hill, Tooting, Mitcham, Morden, Cheam, Ewell, Epsom, where it will fern a junction with the pro posed line to Leatherhead, Headley, Mickleham, from thence to Dorking, where it will communicate with the Metropolitan Railways Junction, and proceed through Capel, Rusper, IVarnhani, Horsham, Nuthurat, West Grinstead, Ashurst, Ilenfleld, near Wiston, and on to Steyning, forming a junction with the proposed Brighton and Cheltenham Railway, continuing through Bramber, Coombes, Lanc ing, Sompting, Broadwater, and to Worthing, where it will come in immediate contact with the Coast Railway, It is satisfactory to find, from strict calculations, that the pas senger traffic arising from the densely-populated parishes contigu ous to the metropolis, hitherto unsupplied by railway, viz., Cam berwell, Peckham, Peckham Rye, Brixton, Clapham, Tooting, Mitcham, &c. B:c., will give this line a decided advantage over all other projects, and will alone secure a profitable return. The general passenger traffic of the Kent Branch (notwithstand ing its unquestionable extent) may be considered of secondary im portance to the immense transit of agricultural produce which this county, justly termed " The Garden of England," daily sends to the metropolitan markets, and particularly the locality of the Borough. The importanoe of Maidstone as a terminus is obvious, it being situated on the River Medway, and containing courts of justice, county gaol, cavalry depot, and many other public establishments, the assizes and sessions, and the business of the whole county being conducted there. It is also, with the adjacent villages, the most flourishing part of Rent, being surrounded by paper-mills, which are more numerous and extensive in this neighbourhood than in any other part of the kingdom, besides several other extensive factories, breweries, &c. The Surrey and Sussex branch besides (unquestionably creating an immense increase of passenger traffic between the metropolis and the flourishing and new celebrated watering-place, Worthing) must necessarily command the entire transit of fish, of which many tons are conveyed weekly from Worthing to London, independent of other commodities, and the agricultural produce of these two fertile and productive counties. The proposed line will fill up the railway chasm at present exist ing between London and Epsom, Dorking, Horsham, and Steyning, and will afford direct intercourse with Worthing, one of the most romantic, fashionable, and delightful watering-places on the coast of Sussex, and an independent railway will of necessity occasion a great influx of company to this already justly celebrated place. The superiority of Worthing as a bathing-place stands unrivalled. The views of the surrounding country are both extensive and picturesque ; its sands are particularly worthy of note, being as smooth as carpet, and offering a healthy and delightful drive of ten miles. It is shel tered by an uninterrupted chain of the Sleuth Downs, which exclude the wind even in the winter months. The salubrity of its climate is too well known to require further comment. But the greatest source of profit to the shareholders will arise from the immense number of passengers now proceeding by omnibus and other conveyances to and from the metropolis, and the extensive and densely-populated suburbs through which this line is intended to pass, and it may be fairly calculated that not less than 30,000 will daily avail themselves of the accommodation afforded to them by this Company. The promoters feel considerable satisfaction in announcing a Source of revenue from this project never yet contemplated by any other Company, viz., the construction under the line to Camberwell of dwellings or tenements, forming one continued street, thereby im proving the locality through which it runs ; from this an immense income 'will be derived. The entire distance of these lines from Camberwell will be about ninety miles, and is free from engineering difficulties. The charac ter of the country through which the railway will pass is peculiarly favourable ; and from the report of the engineer, made on his preli minary survey, they will be constructed within the sum proposed. It is intended to construct this railway on the atmospheric prin ciple, both on account of the facility which that method affords for stopping at short distances to accommodate the highly -res p ectable 1 suburban population, to avoid the possibility of collision, and also the bringing of locomotive engines into London. Powers for allowance of interest at 4/. per cent. on the paid-ap capital will be taken, and the liability of shareholders limited to the amount of their subscriptions. Power will also be applied for in the Act, and in the meantime will be given to the Directors, to alter or vary the proposed capital, either before or after allotment, in order to construct branch lines to Seven Oaks, to Dulwich and Norwood, and to the South- Western Railway, thereby accomplishing the much-desired object of giving that Company a City terminus.

The object which the promoters of this Company are desirous of attaining is the establishment of a direct railway communication be tween the important towns of Harwich, via Colchester and Cam bridge ; and they have most carefully selected that line which, by the report of the engineers, appears to be the best calculated to benefit the public, by its direct nature, and by its encroaching as little as possible on valuable and ornamental property. The line is intended to commence at the Hythe of Colchester, and extend to the terminus of the line projected by Mr. Locke from Harwich to Colchester—from thence the line will be continued through the important and populous towns of Fordham, Wake's Colne, Earl's Colne, Halstead, Sible Heding ham, Castle Hedingham, Great Yeldham, Ridgewell,Sturmer, Haver hill, Great and Little Abington, and Unto% and will effect a junction with the North-Eastern Railway at a point a little below Shelfm•d, and terminate at Cambridge. The total length of the line will be 37 miles, and the promoters have great pleasure in stating that the country offers great facilities for the formation of a railway, and that there are no engineering difficulties. The land is of a rich nature, and the neighbouring country abounds with antiquities and beautiful scenery. In offerin this project to public notice, the promoters feel them selves called upon to explain their reasons for introducing a scheme which may be considered as competing with a line already adver tised from Harwich to Cambridge, and they feel satisfiod that after a perusal of the facts which have induced them to pursue this course, it will be admitted that the advantages offered by the present pro- ject are superior in every respect to those of any other line. The Commissioners on Harbours of Refuge have dotermincd on improving the pert and harbour of Harwich, and, us in severe weather this is the only port on this coast for which vessels can make, it becomes of importance that a speedy communication with London should be opened. During the last winter the mails from Holland and other countries were landed here in order to avoid the delay and danger attendant on a prolongation of the voyage up the Thames. The line projected by Mr. Locke from Harwich to Col chester there is no doubt will be carried, and by the proposed con tinuation of that line from Colchester to Shelford, and thence by the North-Eastern Railway to Cambridge, a saving in distance of 18 miles over any other projected line is ebtained,—and conse quently no Decessity exists for the obstruction to, or deterioration of, ornament►tl property along so many miles of road, the most valuable portion of the line; and this railway also passes through towns tjt, tter suited for railway communication, and through a country with a less undulating surface. It is also confidently be lieved, that by the construction of the branch line to the hythe or port of Colchester, the aid of the Commissioners of that port will be obtained, as great traffic exists between the port and the town of Halstead, and thereby the profits of the Commissioners will be greatly increased. The traffic from the tables, which have been most care fully prepared, and with moderation, appears to warrant a return of at least 3 per cent. on the capital, without taking into consideration the important additions which must result from the contemplated improvement in the port and harbour of Harwich, by - which there can be little doubt the number of passengers from and to the Con tinent will be enormous, for by this line a saving of time will be effected to the following extent: — The journey from London to Rotterdam will be performed in 12 hours, ttom London to Antwerp in 14 hours, and from London to Hamburgh in 25 hours. The traffic in merchandise of all descrip tions will be greatly increased from the accommodation which will be afforded by the improved port to vessels of every tonnage, in all weathers, and at all times of the tide. There is one point, however, to which the Committee beg most particularly to invite the attention of the public and the commercial world, which is, that not only will rapid railway communication be opened with Bury St. Edmunds, Norwich, Yarmouth, and the metro polis, but a direct line of railway will be constructed between the two coasts of England—the valuable commercial and continental port of Harwich, in the east, and the manufacturing and densely ' populated district of Liverpool and Manchester, in the north ; and it is impossible to calculate the advantages which must result to share holders in this important project. The public will perceive, therefore, that the benefitti to be derived from this line over any other must be these :- 1. A more direct. 2. A saving of 18 miles. 3. A less expensive outlay, 4. Less opposition (if any at all) from landowners. The Committee beg to state that the necessary forms will be ob served, and the documents prepared to enable them to offer the pro ject to Parliament in a complete form in the ensuing session ; and they hope, from the favourable opinion which many noblemen and gentlemen upon the route entertain of the superior advantages of this project, with their offers of support, that other gentlemen locally interested will be inclined to aid in carrying out a scheme which has been prepared with the utmost care and attention to the interests of the landed proprietors and the public generally. The local population alone which will be benefited by the measure is upwards of 70,000. The Committee reserve the power of adopting such principle of railway traction as may be found best calculated to attain the greatest speed with economy and the public safety. No calls will be made beyond the deposit until the Act be obtained, and power will be taken in the Act to allow the usual interest upon all calls. The sources from which the traffic will be derived are : I. From passengers proceeding from the midland and northern counties, viz., Harwich, to the Continent and various parts of the world, and from foreign passengers. 2. From local passengers between the termini. 3. From the carriage of the mails, merchandise, luggage, &c. 4. From the carriage of fish, which will be considerable. 5. From the agricultural produce and merchandise between the important districts and populous towns on the line of road.
