The first object of this line is to connect the town a Birminghtuai Coventry, and Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest route and to supply an important link ecommunication between the town of Spalding and the eastern 'oast, and the western and midland districts. Commencing at the Spalding stall** of the Norwich, Derehant, Lynn, and Holbeach Railways, the line will proceed by Bourn, Witham, Castle Bythana, South Wytham, and Wynteadhana to a point on the .Syston and Peterb orou g h line of railwa y near Melten- 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 eennetteleation be tween the eastern and midland districts of the kingdom, and will, by means of the proposed lines across the county of Leicester, via Bar toe-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 Moos the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwich, on the emit, to Aberyatvrith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west. The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There le no tunnel ling, cutting, oar embanking of any importance Necessary; the line from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve miles, is very level, and may - the constructed at a small cost. It will secure the advantages of railway communication to a tract of eoentry at present destitute of this accommodation, besides open ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of tl•e means of transit. The central rade:land 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 tramit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and cestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon supply from the north at high prices : it will also secure the advan tages of an unlim ited supply of lime from the Leicestershire works, to th e a gricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only n tsruipcptsliewidlaltovutai the advantage of a direct transit for the stock and at nigh rates; and, in return traffic, the midland dis agricultural produce of Lincolnshire and -Norfolk. Several proposed lines of railway converge at Spalding, which is the nearest point on the eastern coast for the midland counties, and connected by Vire River Welland with the German Ocean. The proposed capital will be sufficient for the construction of the necessary worts and every subsequent expense ; and the income derivable from the traffic in passengers between Birmingham, a nd other produce of the great agricultural Co ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston, pd districts c o t sf through g the trans chatwtlehich 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 prom fess, and contracts have been entered into which en sure sufficient time for complia nce with the standing orders.

This railway will connect the east and west coasts, and fore a direct mate from the ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood-on-A -pre, aid Lancaster, to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it will proceed up the valley of the Luna, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedberglt, and Kirkby Stephen, and thence by the most practicable lice to New castle: It will run neatly parallel with the old coach road, which has hitherto keel the principal passenger route from Lancaster to Newcastle. It will readily be conceded that great benefits will flow from a direct railway communication between the coal-fields aid nixing districts of Durham aid Northumberland, and the important towns and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, and Lancaster. The entire length of the lino is 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 terraial is effected over any existing or pro- , jected scheme.

This line of railway is intended to commence at the Camden-town station of the London and Birmingham Railway, and to terminate at the extensive quays and warehouses of the East and West India Dock Company. The necessity for this undertaking is sufficiently evidenced by the numerous schemes projected to effect a similar purpose—namely, the connexion of the manufacturing districts with the port of London and the river Thames. The exports from this country are daily increasing, and the con sumption of imported produce has extended and is extending in the interior beyond all previous estimate ; the facility, therefore, of re ceiving and dispatching goods from the port of London into all parts of the country by direct railway communication, whereby the ex pense of cartage may be avoided, is obviously of immense im- portanee. The frequency of the complaints from the manufacturing district s that the port of London is scarcely available to them , owing difficulty and expense of transit to and from the railway s tio e n s s, has caused the projectors of this undertaking to consider the to plthe an is mode of remedying the evil which exists , a nd the present ,li c i i t p i ort fo o r f es g 6 intendedis trafficth effectb e between thisee n o t b n j e e c i t . , t e a r n i and to n f . afford t ti e . n increased ntryn a. f. tie London.

Although at present a connexion with the Birmingham Railway. alone has been secured, it is anticipated that .the Directors of all the existing and projected metropolitan railways from the•mainthictur ing and mlneralilistricts may be induced to avail themselves of this direct mode of communication with the river below the bridge, and thus largely increase the resources of the Company. " The Income from passenger traffic it is probable will be very great, as, in addition to the daily local traffic between Camden-town, Is lington, Holloway, Hackney, and the City, this railway will - enable parties &Mil a distance to proceed direct to the principal place of em barkation for foreign steamers, as well as enable persons from the MANCHESTER ------- AND MILFORD .

Offices, 163, Fenchurch-street, London. This line has been projected for the purpose of forming the most direct communication lsetween Birmingham and the Midland Coun ties, and the important and rising pert of Aberystwith and the sea coast of Wales. It is intended to commence at the junction of the Welch Midland and Stour Valley Railways (both of which have proj ected lines to Birmingham), between Kidderminster and Bewdley , a nd p roceed from thence through Cleebury 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 off 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 delight for, the part to be made will not exceed sixty miles ; and as surveyors are already upon the line, the plans, &c., 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 at present nnprovided 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 or the midland counties ; while, on the ether hand, by the branch from the Craven Arms, the coals of Shrepehire 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 rat e of interest upon the capital embarked difficulties of any magnitude, and no may be depended upon. invaded.

Is submitting this undertaking to the public, the promoters.--a numerous and highly influential class—have been influeneed tie lei.' by the general facilities presented for its construction, by the fa vourable character of the country through which it is intended to pass, than by the conviction of its great local and general import. ante as a direct connecting line between orth and Soutb 'Wales, Shrewsbury,lLichfield, Tamworth, Derby, and Leicester, and the Midland and Easters Counties generally. To effect this desideratum, the formation of a new I ine of 10 or %- m il e s only will be required ; communicating with the Trent •Valley R a ilway at Lichfield, and uniting with the Shrewsbury, WOlrerbamp ton Dudley and Birmingham, or Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton, and South Staffordshire Junction Railways, at Shiffnal. It is a remarkable fact that Shrewsbury, the outlet of "North Wales, has been hitherto altogether disregarded In the rangy of isting railways, particularly towards the east, the nearest being at die 'distance of 28 miles. • The town of Shrewsbury, now 95 miles from Leicester by road and railway, will, by means of this and the other projected lines, be brought within 65 miles. When the ordinary • • passenger traffic, and the vast transit of cat tle, together with the coal, mineral, and agricultural districts to be traversed, are considered, it is obvious that the construction of this line will insure to the Company a most Initiative return for the capital employed ; and that, as an investment, it mast rank among the most advantageous of modern undertakings, whilst it will im part advantages of the highest importance, both to England and the principality. The immense droves of Welsh and Shropshire cattle will at once be conveyed into the important cattle Markets of Derby shire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire; Lincolnshire, .- Rorlblk. and Suffolk, whilst, in return, the agricultural produce of those coun ties will be sent into the densely-populated localities of Birmingham and Wolverhampton, and tile Staffordshire, Shropshire, cud Wash ironworks- • • The several projected railways passing from Worcestershire and Herefordshire in the direction of Chester and Liverpool, will. be im portant. tributaries to the revenue of this Bee, which will he stilt further augmented by its joining the Grand Junction, near to the Spread Eagle Station, at a short distance from Wolverhampton. The facilities which will be aff rded to visitors to Matleek and - the rest of the picturesque scenery of Derbyshire, and of,Nortit Wales and Aberyetwith, as well as to travellers vie nolyheal to Ireland, will still thrther conduce to the generst utility of ille . eNleci • Applications for shares may be made, in the accenniiinYing form, to IT.
