THIS line of railway will commence at a point on the Grand Junction Railway, at Stafford, and passing from thence by Stone, Lane End. Fenton, Stoke-upon- Trent, Shelton, Hanley, Burslem, and Tunstall, to Con gleton, it will proceed by Knutsford to Altrincham, where it will join the South Junction Railway to Manchester, an act for which has been obtained ; and from Congleton by Northwich to Preston-Brook, where it will communi cate with the Grand Junction Railway, and proceed thence to Liverpool. A branch from Stoke-upon-Trent, by Newcastle to Crewe, affording accommodaiton to the Silverdale and Apedale Ironworks, will connect the main line with the important railways meeting at that point, and give the shortest possible route from the Potteries to Chester, Holyhead and Birkenhead. A branch will con nect the towns of Congleton and Macclesfield. A com munication will thus be opened from those places, and from the salt district of Cheshire, on the one hand to Liverpool ; and on the other to Manchester, the ports on the Humber, and the eastern coast of England, and will thus afford a great additional market for the produce of the district, and facilitate the foreign trade from those coasts. An inspection of the map will show the importance of the line of country proposed to be accomodated by means of this railway • and some of the advantages attending it will be as follow : The Pottery district alone contains an immense popula tion, and the whole of that district is at present without railway accommodation. The importance of the Pottery trade is too manifest to require a moment's comment ; and the principal part of that trade being connected with Liverpool, it is highly important, in a national point of view, that every facility should be given to the communi cation betwixt those parts. In no line of railway at pre sent formed or projected has the interest of the Pottery district, as a whole been duly considered ; but by the pre sent line it is intended to afford accommodation to every town in the district, and to give the best and most direct communication betwixt the Potteries and Chester, Birken head and Liverpool, and also through Manchester,with the ports on the Humber and the east coast of England, thus affording facilities for a revival of the trade with Holland, Belgium, and Germany, which, it is believed, will be at tended with important results to the future trade of the Potteries. The important manufacturing towns of Congleton and Macclesfield, with their districts, containing also a very large population, have likewise been, in a great measure, overlooked in the railway arrangements hitherto carried out ; and it is proposed by this railway to afford commu nication from those places by existing and projected routes to the South of England, and to Liverpool, Man chester, Chester, Birkenhead, North Wales, and the whole of the North and East of England and Scotland. The proposed line of railway will afford facilities to the coal districts of Staffordshire, Cheshire, and South Lan cashire. especially accommodating the large coal field at Biddulph ; and will tend materially to reduce the cost of that article in the country through which the line is in tended to pass. The shortest and most direct route will be afforded by existing and projected routes from Southampton, Bir mingham, and the whole of South Staffordshire, through , the Potteries to the salt districts and the North of Eng land ; and the facilities of communication from the coun try intersected by this line to Liverpool, Birkenhead, Manchester. Chester, North Wales, and all parts of the North and East of England, and to London, Southamp . ton, Birmingham, and South Staffordshire, and all parts STANDARD. of the South and West of England, and South Wales, will be. as ample as can be desired, whilst the traffic both of goods and passengers that is manifestly attendant on the line of country will be such as to insure the most am ple return on the capital invested. The line has been properly inspected, and has been found free from material engineering difficulties, and the landowners are mainly favourable to its course. The ca pital proposed to be raised has been estimated to be more than sufficient for the completion of the works.

THIS Line, which, subject to the decision of the Guage Commissioners, will be constructed on the Broad Guage principle, will commence at the Worcester Station of the great Eastern and Western Railway, and, proceeding by Redditch and Henley in Arden, will touch Warwick and Leamington, and end at Rugby, the ter minus of the Midland Counties Railway and of the pro posed Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railway. It will communicate with Droitwich, Studley, Alcester, and Stratford-on-Avon. At Warwick, it will unite with the Birmingham and Oxford Junction Railway, the Warwick and Cheltenham Railway, and the London, Warwick, Leamington, and Kidderminster Railway ; and at Rugby, with the London and Birmingham, the Midland Counties, and the pro jected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railways. The country through which it will pass is thickly popu lated, and of the richest description. It presents no en gineering difficulties, and from its population, its manu factures, and agricultural produce, it posseses sources of such abundant traffic as to render it highly remunerative to the capitalists. The object proposed, is to complete the line of railway communication between the Western, Midland, and Eastern portions of the Kingdom, and a glance at the Map of England will show that this will be effected in the most direct manner by the present line ; touching, as it will at one of its termini, a railway running direct from Swansea to Worcester, and at the other, the pr ,jected line from Rugby to Huntingdon,—from which point a railway communication has been already provided. By means of this Railway, the manufactures of all the towns and the agricultural produce of the country con tained within its range, as well as the Ports on the East ern ",and North-Eastern Coast, will have opened to them a direct and unbroken communication with the great and densely populated mineral fields of South \Vales, as well as the markets of the Northern portion of the princi pality. The advantages of a direct railway carriage over the more tedious process of carriage by water, to say nothing of the economy in saving the expense, as well as the da mage incident to many kind of goods by the frequent transhipment required by the latter, are too obvious to demand more than this slight allusion. To the population along the line as well as to the Mid land and Northern portions of the Kingdom, this under taking will present the most direct communication with those towns of fashionable resort—Leamington and Cheltenham. To the inhabitants of Leamington and Warwick, it will open the most direct communication with the city of Worcester and South Wales, whilst to the inhabitants of Worcester, it will open the markets of the Eastern portions of the county. The Shareholders in the several Railways proposed to be joined or intersected, will have a preference in the allotment of Shares in this undertaking. No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the Act is obtained, and power will be applied for to allow interest at £4 per centum on all calls from the time of their respective payments, and to limit the liability of the Shareholders to the amount of their Subscrip tions.

TE necessity of affording Raiiway commu nication between Birmingham and the adjacent Districts and the Towns of Warwick, Leamington, and Banbury, has called for the revival of a Line in connection with the Lon don and Birmingham and Midland Railways, from the point of Junction between those Lines at Hampton-in- Arden to Warwick and Leamington, for which Plans and Sections were deposited by the Birmingham and Derby Railway Company (now united with the Midland) in 1841 and 1812, with a continuation of such Line from War. wick and Leamington to Banbury, where it will join the intended Buckinghamshire Railway ; and in order to effect a connection between Birmingham and the Midland Railways and Stratford, Evesham, Cheltenham, and the West by a Railway which will at the same time include Warwick and Leamington in its course, it is proposed to extend the Line from Warwick to Stratford-upon-Avon, and thence down the Valley of the Avon to Evesham and on to the Birmingham and Gloucester Railway, near Ashchurch ; and a connecting Line between the main Lines from Stratford-on-Avon to the neighbourhood of Banbury will be added, with the view of giving the most complete accommodation to the district in all directions. These Lines of Railway wilrafford, by the Junction at Hampton-in-Arden, the most direct communication be tween Birmingham and the whole of the North of Eng land and the Towns and Districts on the Midland Rail ways, with . the Towns of Warwick, Leamington, Ban bury, and the district traversed by the proposed Bucking hamshire Railway, as well as with Oxford and the South, —at the same time Warwick and Leamington, and the adjacent districts will be directly connected with Strat ford-on-Avon, Evesham, Cheltenham, and the West of England. The rejection, by the Legislature, of the London, Wor cester, and South Staffo rdshire p ro j ect, has made some modification necessary in the details of the original pro posal of this Railway, the objects of which, however, remain essentially the same. Its importance is increased by the proposal of the Buckinghamshire Railway (from Banbury through that county to London), with which its interests are so intimately connected. These objects are considered of so much importance by the Local interests that their full support has been obtained for carrying them into effect. The London and Birmingham and Midland Companies unite in co-operation to insure the most effectual corn pletion of the objects in view. Careful surveys of the whole Country have been made, under the direction of Mr. ROBERT STEPHENSON, and application will he made to Parliament for an Act in the next Session. No further application for Shares can be received. LIVERPOOL NEW GAS AND COKE COMPANY.

It is therefore proposed to found a Society or Com pany, to be called THE NORTH LANCASHIRE & CRAVEN . ASSURANCE COMPANY, under the Provisions of the above Act, which will give to the public all the benefits of a mutual Assurance Company. and secure to the Share holders a reasonable amount of profit. The Company will be organized and its rules and regu lations defined by a Deed of Settlement to be made pur suant to the Act referred tc, and proper measures will be taken for the purpose of restricting the liability of each Shareholder to the amount of his or her Subscriptions re spectively. By the Act above referred to for the registration of In surance Companies, not more than ten shillings per cent. is allowed to be called for until the full registration of the Company, consequently a deposit of two shillings per Share only will be called for on the Allotment.
