PROSPECTUS Of a line of Navigation from Birmingham to London, commencing at the StraOtd-on-Avon Canal in Warwickshire, and ending at the Regent's Canal, London; to be called THE LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM CANAL NAVIGATION. rIpHE great and leading objects of the proposed undertaking, are— First.—To effect the cheapest, and most direct practicable line of water communication, between London and Birming ham, and the great mining districts of Staffordshire, Worces tershire, and Shropshire. Second.—TO obtain, by the communication it will open with the Regent, Stafford, Worcester, Birmingham, Birmingham and Liverpool. Ellesmere and Chester, Trent and Mersey, and Bridgewater Canals, the qtriektit4lieapest, and most conve nient line of canal conveyance befeween London, Birmingham, Liverpool, and Manchester; also by a junction with the Oxford Canal at Banbury, an improved communication to the city of Oxford. . Third.—To give the facilities and advantages of water con veyance, to the valuable and extensive districts th roug h w hi c h the proposed line of navigation is intended to be taken;—dis lricts, capable of great and rapid improvement, and to which "'Ailing can so niateriallv contribute, as a cheap and direct c ommunication wiih the Metropolis, and the great manufac turing towns of Warwickshire and Staffordshire. It must be evident, that the proposed undertaking embraces °l) jects of the highest national importance, and cannot fail to produc e great and almost incalculable advantages, to the Agri cultural, Commercial, and Manufacturing inte res t s o f t h e. Kingdom, The extraordinary facility that thisline would give to London a nd Liverpool, to he manufaciurers Manchester, Birmingham, W olverhampton, Dudley, Siourbridge, and Walsall, and to the ~...rroprietors of Mines and Works, in the counties of Stafford, orcester, and Salop, must be obvious to the most superficial nbie rver.—Birmingharn and Wolverhampton, and the con aik'llons mineral districts, would then b e s ituated ab o ut m id way, a the great throughfare water communicetion between London and Liverpool, and London and Manchester, and as vessels w ould be passing incessantly in each direction, the increased facility and despatch could not but be productive of the highest Ldvantages. The saving in distance by the proposed route will be ()t) "'lies, and the locks will be reduced from 172 to 49. np i:he great f eature of the proposed undertaking, is the opening a cheap coMmunicatinn, between the Metropolis and the great Coal Fields of Staffordshire and Worcestershire. In the ,ttaininent of this object, every inhabitant of London ought to i t . !el himself inteiested; experienceevery day furnishing addi 'anal proofs tha t nothing but effective competition from the in terior of the kitigdom, can insure to the householders o f L on d on a regular and steady supply of Coal at moderate pri ces . Per hps it i s scarcely possible for the most sanguine mind, to form Ra Idequate conception of the benefits that would result from li:tiling the Midland Coal proprietor, to compete With the ,rthern proprietor, in supplying London with Coal; compete' would be rendered impossible, combination frustiated, and IT'en and active Conipetition.cOMPletely secured. By the pro sed Route Staffordshire Coal can be delivered in th e Cit y in, at prices varying with quality, from 15s. to 20s. per ton. With a view to render this concern as extensively useful as l' rr? ssit tle, the r a t es o f t o nn age w ill l ie l ow , an d th us comman d rhaatrgg,rseat mass of business which invariably follows moderate 111:Inure and Ro a d M a t er i a l s w ill b e permitted to pass at low rites. Wharfa will be provided where the Canal ilwill intersect thoroughf ares, and every encouragement be afforded to 'Pe development of the energies of the districts through tich the Canal will pass. he The proposed navigation will possess all the improz4ments of the wi7modern canals. Where tunnelling is necessary two tunnels, arg al e l tozving p at h un d er each, will be made ; the sides of the will be w a ll e d ; an d t h e greatest of all modern improve iin e s, the double towing path, will be carried throughout the whole . . eonOvonfident i n th e superior cheapness and convenience of water eyance, (particularly as regards raw materials and heavy r l Modities), the promoters of this undertaking have no tresita ,min submitting their plan to the public, in the face of the theiro erous- railways now in course of formation; every day, in rh o judgment, furnishing further and satisfactory proof, that Riv t 'fr.h railway conveyanc e may be preferred for passengers, traunislght goods that require dispatch and will hear high rates of it, th great bulk of the trade of the country will still be carriedh • htl s. on t roug medium of cheap navigable communi- Ch n , • t calculations as to the revenue being founded on indis :Putable d ata, the promoters of the measure have no hesitati o n 1 1 1 e.st.apting, that the prospect of remuneration is, in the highest 10 1 - C e. enc ourag i ng; an d th at, i f due consideration be given ricmerits of the proposed line, to the great extent and sim ,ity of its levels, to the superiority it will possess in respect ledistance and lockage, to the well ascertained fact that a full l f ) ql water cant be provided, the conclusion will be fully %a trianted, that in a short time after its completion, this really d internal communication will yield such a return , as will fill li s le it to he classed amongst the most productiv e and s'uccess -o,ihdertaking,s of the kind in the Kingdom.

Sharebroker, Liverpool: Liverpool, 12th May, ] FIFE JUNCTION RAILWAY. ONNECTING the County of FIFE with the Counties on C the North side of the TAY, on the one hand, and those on the South side of the FORTH on the other, thus forming a link of union between the Ferries on the Forth and the Tay, con necting the Dundee and Newt vle Railway, with its br• ches to Cupar and Glainmis, the, Dtindoe Forfar, and Ar oath Rail ways, present bef.,re Parliament, and at their in nded exten sion of them to Kirriemuir, Brechin and Mon se, as well as the proposed Railway from Dundee to Per , with the great Railways on the South of the Forth, part; .11 rly the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway—the Edinburgh, H ddiogton, anti Dun bar Railway : --the Edinburgh, Leith, and Newhaven Railway, 'and the Edinburgh, Dalkeith, and Leith Railway; and being a branch from the great Trunk Railway proposed to be ex tended fromlondon by Fork to the Scottish metropoli s . The advantages of a Railway connecting together districts of the country so very populous and advancing, and passing through a highly cultivated line, fertile in its agricultural, and abounding in its mineral productions, are too apparent to re quire to be commented on. • Indeed it-is difficult to select a portion of country of equalex tent in the kingdom, which presents so many facilities and ad vantages for a railway communication as the country betwixt the Fife and Tay ferries. The intercourse between Fife and the Lothians on the south, and Forfarshire on the north, is even at present very great; and some idea of the e;tent of the increased communication may be formed, when is is considered that during the year 1845 there were upwards of 75,030 pssengeis between Newhaven atid Burntisland, Pettvoer, y and Kirkaldv, and up wards 3-1,000 b e t ween N ew h aven , Dundee, and Aberdeen, &c. The quantity4fgoods which would be carried along a railway connecting the two ferries would be very considerable. The mantifactures of Dundee and of the other towns on the lines of the railway on the north, would be brought to the markets in the south in'a cheap and speedy manner; and the articles of commerce sent from the south being carried of a comparatively, cheap rate would find a ready market in the populous and flou rishing towns of Dundee and Perth. - Looking at the internal resources of the county of Fife alone, abounding as it does in coal and limestone, a very considerable traffic might fairly be expected, when the want of these articles on the north of the Tay is considered. There ate at p•esent imported into Dundee about 300,000 tons of Scotch coat► annu ally. If a cheap and speedy communication by a railway through the coal district of Fife was formed, the greater part - of:this large quantity might be fairly calculated upon as a part of the railway traffic. There are likewise upward of 100,000 bolls of lime im ported into the ports of Perth and Dundee, besides importa tions into the intermediate ports. Impressed with a consideration of the greet advantages to the conntry - at large, which the formation of a railway between the Fife and Tav ferries would produce, it has been resolved by a number of gentlemen to endeavour to carry it into effect, and that as promptly, economically, awl beneticially for the share boldeai and the public as its great accessibiliiies will admit. THE. L,NE, The two termini of the Hue are proposed to be Port on Craig or Newport on the north, and Bruntisland, or wherever the Fo posed low water pier shall be erected on the south. In regard to its intermediate direction, the line which shall be ascertained to be most advantageous, on the report of eminent engineers, will be adopted. EXPENSE. The distance between the em - tremiiies of the linewill be about thirty-two miles, and when respect is p a id to the recent great improvements in the formation of railways it is e;:pected that the costs will be less than £1.0,000 a mile, but it has been deem ed expedient to have a capital to the extent of this rate, being £320,000, by which means a steady and sure progression and completion of the work may be relied on. THE PROFIT. Considering that the county of Forfar is internally destitute of, and that Fife abounds in coal, and considering the facilities which would he given to the ports of Kirkaldv and Dundee for expotting, the agricultural, and mineral, and manufacturing productions of the county of Fife, a very great source of re• venue would be thence derived. In passengers, however, the greatest reliance for a revenue may be placed. The number of passengers at present is up wards of 90,000 annually, eNclusive of those travelling farther north, and who would also avail themselves of the railway through Fife. But say that the increase of passengers was only to the extent of one half of this gross number, or 135,000 throughout the line, and nearly as many for intermediate dis• lances, but say altogether ZO,OOO passengers for various distances, this would yield yearly £33,250 0 0 Goods, consisting of coal, lime, grain, flax yarn, &c. &c., carried along the railway, at , least 18,000 0 0 L 53,250 0 0 Deduct expense of ma;ntenance and manage ment, conveyance, &c 17,750 0 0 35,00 Yielding a profit of upw ar d s o f 11 p er cen t. annualsly on o th o e capital stock. 'l. The capital Stock of the Company shall be £320,000 di vided into Shares of £5O each ; a sum not exceeding £3 per Share of deposit shall be paid noon subscription, and no further call shall be made until an act is obtained, and this act shall provide that not more than £5 per share shall be called up at one time. The deposits to be payable at the Western Bank of Scotland, and to Messrs. Jones, Loyd and Co., London. 2. The undertaking shall be under the management of a Committee of fifteen Subscribers, to be nominated by the Part ners at a General Meeting to be called for that purpose, to he held in Edinburgh, and the sederunts of the Committee shall be held in Edinburgh. 3. The Company shall be held as constituted as soon as one half of the Capital shall have been subscribed, and a General Meeting of the Subscribers shall then be called, for the purpose of appointing the Committee, and another General Meeting shall be held so soon as the Surveys ate completed, and the Engineers' Report obtained. - Applications for Stock to he made by letter to Messrs.

(Name and residence of Applicant.) THE METROPOLITAN NEWSPAPER COMPANY, For the Establishment of a New Weekly Newspaper, To BE CALLED THE METROPOLITAN - CONSERVATIVE JOURNAL. CAPITAL £lO,OOO, IN 5,000 SHARES OF £2 EACH. THE names of Bankers, Director, Committee of Manage ment, Solicitors, and Secretary, with a full, ample, and satisfactory Prospectus, will be issued in a few days, and may be obtained at the Office of the Metropolitan Literary Journal, 13, Weilington.street, Strand; where, in the meantime, ap plications for Shares may be made, and will be dui ;registered and laid with the Bankers. For the satisfaction of those numerous parties the Country interested in the present undertaking, it is ecessary here to state generally the object and intention o he Committee of Management, and further information will erwards be afforded. This new Political Journal is insti t under powerful pat ronage, for the purpose of thwartin in some measure, the avowed designs of the numerous dical Newspapers lately sprung up—of acting as an antidote to the objects and opinions of such papers as the Spectator, Examiner, and Atlas, hitherto unopposed by any antagonist of their form and character—of spreading inure widely and generaliy throughout the Country, (by a proper explanation, which is never attempted,) ptinciples of a Conservative tendency—and of procuring a distinct organ of Conservatism, to communicate the proceedings of the different Conservative Associations. The principles upon which this Journal will Le conducted, are of a very simple and intelligible character, for they have been advocated by the ;.,,rreatest'tand wisest Men this Country has ever produced, and are those now upheld by His GRACE THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. and SIR ROBERT They are, to defend at all times, and with all earn e stness, th e strict and inviolable union now happily existing betw ee n Ch urc h and State; to maintain the Throne in all its integrity, and against all arbitrary encroachment, whether from within or from without; to uphold the full and entire independence of both Houses of Parliament, against the Monarchy and the people on the one hand, and their own mutual inroads on the other; and io teach the peoPle obedience to the laws, attachment to 'their established faith, loyalty to the King, and justice to each other. The METROPOLITAN CONSERVATIVE JOURNAL is also especi ally intended to represent the Shipping, the Agricultural, and oilier depressed interests; and will devote a careful attention to the proceedings of . (he various Railway, Mining, Canal, and other Companies. Shareholders are more particularly sought for among the Clergy, the Conservltive Clubs and Associations, the Shipping and Agricultural Districts and Associations; and from Man chester, Leeds, Bristol, Liverpool, Edinburgh, Hull, Sunder land, Whitby, and Newcastle. Each Shareholder is expected to take a Copy of the METRO POLITAN CONSERVATIVE JOURNAL, and in order to vary and widen its circulation for the benefit of the Shareholders, no one is allowed to subsCribe fOr mire than two Shares; for this pur pose also, they have been made small. It will thus commence with such an extensive and immediate circulation, as to allow at once a large per centage for Capital advances ; and, to Spbscribers, in addition, a considerable per centage will be allowed on Adveitisements, sufficient to repay them for their outlay. _ _ . In order, moreover, to meet with the Literary taste of the British public, the METROPOLITAN LITER ARY JOURNAL, which is edited by a gentleman of high standing in contemporary Literature, will, as soon as the Duty is removed, be immediately Stamped and sent to all parts of the Empire, thus allowing the CONSERVATIVE JOURNAL more entire and exclusive space for the diffusion of its political opinions. Letters (post paid) ad dressed to J. WALKER Oan, Esq., Officeof the METROPOLITAN LITERARY JOURNAL, 13, Wellington-street, or 29, Northumber land-street, Strand, will be laid before the Committee, and all inquires replied to. Early applications for Shares are also re quested, as a considerable number are already secured by im mediate friends of the undertaking; and in the Country.

PROSPECTUS THE object of the present project is to form a line of Rail way whereby the trade and traffic of. Dublin wi , h the North and North-western Districts of Ireland May be increased and improved. The subject has undergone' [nature deliberation and received the unanimous suppai t of the Bankers, Merchants, and Traders of Dublin, and the Gentry and Landowners of the Counties of Meath, Longford, Cavan. the Towns of Granard, Trim,.Athboy, Kells, Navan, and various other Tow ns t o b e benefited by the Railway; Petitions from which have been pre sented to Parliament. • - The line that has been selected will be the sole medium of, transport for 'Passengers and Goods and altAglicultural Pro-, duce to the North and North-western Districts of Ireland; it pass2s through a fertile and highly-cultivated countty, benefits many large Market Towns, and embraces the emirs trade and intercourse of one-half of It eland, comprising all the manufac turing districts, and having no Canal. or Water .Caniage to compete with it. It , is intended subsequently to extend the Line to Armagh, there to meet the Railway from Belfast. The Line to Navan forms the Main Trunk for any of the contemplated Railways to the Western Districts of Ireland. The Public is aware that it is the object of another Company to carry a line of Railway, coastwise, between Dublin and Drogheda, to the total exclusion of the Inland Country. The line of Railway laid down by the opposing Company, adjoins some small Towns • and Villages along the Coast, inhabited chiefly by Fishermen, and having no existine• Trade or Traffic. Balbriggan, the largest and only important Town on the line, contains a population of 3,016 inhabitants, and has but 325 fa milies engaged in trade, manufacture, and handicraft. The in tercourse by passengers is so trifling, that but six public vehi cles are employed throughout the entire line, and should there be hereafter any increase of traffic, this Railway can always be successfully opposed by Water Carriage along the Eastern shore. The Coast line of Railway is nearly four miles longer than the Inland line:— Coast line to Drogheda, 32 miles 220 yards. Inland line to Drogheda, 28 miles 530 yards. Estimated ExpenSe of the Coast line, as stated by the Engineer, is • . Estimated Expense of the Inland line to Drog heda There is here, therefore, an admitted excess in the outlay of £144,000; also, in the annual expense of ma i n t a i n i ng the 'two lines, the excess of the expense on the Coast line over the In land line will he £lO,OOO a-year; this last will be evident when the situation of the two lines is considered; the natural difficul ties of the Coast line, if they can be surmounted by the skill of the Engineer, will be at an expense unexampled in the annals of Railway Engineering. By reference to the Plan, it will be seen that great sea works are to be constructed at email for a mile and a half—an arm of the sea at Malahide for two miles, at ten foot water to be crossed on an embankment forty feet high— thirty feet of filling at Rage? slown strand .for a distance of two miles—nearly four miles of a cutting at Melverton sixty-five feet deep—a sea embankment on the shore towards Sherries, seventy feet from the surface of the beach, and exposed to the whole force of the ocean—a tunnel under Thornhill, and a second Tun nel half a mile long, to be constructed underMe/verton demesne. Such works cannot be constructed at a less rate than £30,000 a mile, if, indeed,, it be possible to form a correct estimate of the expense in such an undertaking. The costs of maintenance must be equally uncertain in amount, as the action of the water on the shore may sweep away breakwaters and embankments, althoneh constructed for the purposes of security, with the ut most skill, and with no regard to expense. An opinion may be formed of the estimation in which the two lines are held by - the inhabitants and land-owners on the ;re spective lines, by the fact, that whilst on the Inland line an unanimous opinion prevails in its favour, on the Coast line se veral influential land-owners are opposed to that - line, and have petitioned Parliament against it, and prayed to be heard by I Counsel. There has not been a single petition presented against the .nland line. There have been twelve petitions from various places pre sented against the Coast line. The necessary surveys of the Inland line, from Dublin to Drogheda and Navan, have been some time made; there is no one engineering difficulty to be encountered. 'i'he►e is no Tun nel on the entire line, nor is there a single mansion-house or demesne to be interfered with; a zealous and anxious co-opera tion of all the land-owners and occupiers on the entire line has been secured. The line to Drogheda is 28 miles 533 yards. - Estimated Expense Branch to Navan is 12 miles 835 yards. Es ti►nated Expense Total £635,751 0 3 The line commences on a level at the east side of Prussia sheet, in the City of Dublin, crossing Prussia-street and the Circular Road in a direct line, passes over the Royal Canal at the tail of the 12th lock, where a station and warehouses can be constructed, and a direct communication by canal formed with the Customhouse, Docks. and Harbour of Dublin, at the Quays of the Iti;er Liffey. The line terminates close to Drogheda at an elevation of one hundred feet over the River Boyne. he terminus at Prussia-street is contiguous to Smithfield Market, where all Cattle ar6 sold for the supply of the Liver pool and other English Markets, but can be further extended to the waste ground at Dominick-street, or to the end of Constitu tion-hill, where it would form a junction with the new street now proposed to the Pour Courts, and, into the southern direc tion of the Metropolis. The Drogheda terminus affords great facilities for an exten sion to Armagh, across the plains of Ardee, there to join the Belfast and Armagh Railway. The Branch to Navan 'leaves the main trunk at Primates town, sixteen and a half miles from Dublin, a little westward of the mail-coach road, and terminates at the Boyne River at Naval), near the Upper Lock, at the point of junction of the Canal navigation with the River. The line to Drogheda is the most direct line that can be formed to the North, and necessarily embraces all the trade and traffic between Dublin and the seaport of Drogheda, Armagh, Belfast, and all the North of Ireland, a population exceeding 850,(X)0 people. The line to Navan embraces the entire trade of Navan, Kells, Cavan, Clones, and Enniskillen, large and populous towns, and in the centre of a peaceable and productive country, with a population of 189,000 people. The inland line for twenty-eight miles out of Dublin would be a common trunk for any Railway to the 'Western and North western parts of Ireland, which, in point of level and material, offers every facility to the formation of a Railway joining Laugh-Erne, the s'eond largest Lake in Ireland, which con tains an area of 35,923 acres, possessing a water power equiva l'en't to the force of 35,0U0' horses; and the River which flows from' PROSPECTUS OF THE EGREMONT AND LISCARD JOINT STOCK LAND, BRICK.MAKING, AND BUILDING COMPANY. (Item t, £50,000, IN 5000 SPACES OF £lO EACtI. THE Property consists of upwards of 41,000 square yards of Land, situate opposite the Liverpool Northern Docks, on an eminence a little northward of the Egremont Hotel and Pier, in Liscard, and having a direct line of frontage of up wards of 600 yards to a road of 16 yards wide, which runs parallel with (and only a narrow field's breadth of) the shore of the Mersey, and commanding (from its elevation) unobstructed views up and down the.river and of the surrounding country, is, it is presumed, admirably adapted for the erection of Marine The Estate is Freehold, and has a reserved right of a Car riage.and Foot Road down to the shore where there is a fine gravel beach, well suited for Seabathing, and from its contigu ity to the established Ferry of Egreinont, and the projected Fei i les, (the Liscard arid Mostyn,) a punctual st r communica tion with Liverpool (which is only distant • out one mile) may be relied upon. The pu .e and salubrious air of this tof the Cheshire coast, and its advantageous position as a ate:ing place, render this scite at once a desirable retreat lo the private gentleman, the valetudinarian, and the man of iness; advant ages whi c h will be peculiarly obvious to the r idly increasing population of Liverpool and its numerous O. tors. The owner of this Estate lies the right of getting stone (free fi urn any charge) from a quarry in the iironeeiate neighbour hood, and there is a deep stratum of Brick Clay on the Land, of an excellent quality, with an abundant supply of sand and water; .and it is . proposed to cast the clayinimediately and make as many bricks in the course of the sum mer as will be sufficient for the election of the proposed buildings, thereby avoiding the nuisance ever attendant upon makiug of this article, audat once elreciing a great saving of e7:pense and loss in carting and breakage. As it is a well known fact that the profits arising front Wel:making are very great where a rapid consumption can be. gi.aranteed, and as Coals can be obtained here at a low rate, it is presuthed that this Company wilt realize a profit from this branch of the undertaking which will alone repay them the cost Pr ice of the land. • - The whole of the above valuable property is offered for the 'sum of. £13,(X10, and it is deter niced to form a Joint Stock Company, with a proposed Capital of £50,000, in 5000 Shares of 1.30 each, for effecting the purchase of the Land, and for making 'Bricks, and erecting Villas; but should it be hereafter determined upon to sell out any considerable portion of the land in leis-to suit she convenience 01- porcthase.s, in- preference to this Company erecting the whole of the proposed buildings, not one-half of the above capital may ever be requited.

TT has been resolved by the Proprietors of this Estate, that it should be offered to the Public on somewhat similar terms to those by which the Harrington Dock Company have become possessed of the adjoining Laud.

The southern boundary is airea enclosed by a sirorg Ashlar Wall, and a considerable portion of the foundation and side wails of a New Graving Dock (of the same dimensions as No.l of the Liverpool Graving Docks) is built immediately adjacent; and it is intended to form the entrance of sufficient width to al low the passage of first-class Steamers without the customary and expensive method usually adcipted of unshippiug their Paddle Boxes. . the Dock belong- Jimpson ; the Ship , Gibb ; an e7eellent River; eight Houses, :v Cottages, and a large ,nd to the eastward, the is, above 150,000 square a frontage to the fiver of The great er..tent and compactness of this Property render it capable of being turned to , most Profitable account: end for Wharfs, Shipbuilders' Yards, Forwarding Agents, Deptils for Goods requiring tranSbipment, Yards requiring great space con nected with a Shipping Station, or any of the general purposes of a Commercial Town, this Estate offers advantages now no longer to be met with. Should it become desirable, a Communication from" the Wet Dock with the portion of Land on the east side of Sefton-str eet may be readily made by means of a. Canal. Numerous applications for the Land, both to rent. and per chase Lots, have been made, and froth, its proximity to the Docks, an d the seat of the 'Flintier Trade, it will be occdpied as fast as it can be prepared.' It is intended that the Steamers to and from the Royal Pock Ferry, which is directly opposite the Potteries, shalt p`iv to the to the new Slip, and where Passen g ers, Carriages, and Cattle can be sec ure ly s hipp e d an d landed; and the quiet and cooveni ent access to all purrs of the town from the Pier will uecessaiily render it a pi incapal place of passage. From the'extent of this Property the Proprietors are desirous of being joined in this undertakicg by those whose occupations tender the situation desirable, and who will consequently be free from th e li a bility o f removal,; and to the Capitalist 'bete, is a certainty of commensuiate return in the;future improvement and increi , sed value of the Property, and that without the sat attest risk. It is intended, therefore, that a Company be formed for the purchase and management of this Estate, having a Capital of £220,0;10, in 2.20t1 Shares of £lOO each, which includes a con templated outlay according to the estimates made for finishing the Woiks, of £40,000.

Passengers :—These conveyances are generally filled, but taking only twelve to each as the daily average, we have 552 passengers daily, or 201,450 yearly. The charge now is 7s. for an inside seat, and 4s. outside: let the Railway fares be only 4s. for the first-class carriage, 3s. foc the second, and 2s. for the third, thus giving 3s. as the average on 552, or a sum of £B2 16s. per day, but, according to the principle that the ex isting number of passengers m a y b e d ou bl e d, w e have £165 12s. per day, or per annum 60,414 0 () -There are several Public Cars plying daily be tween the termini of the Railway and towns on the line between Dublin, Drogheda, and Navan, carrying passengers, and receiving £lO a day, which doubled, as above, £2O a day, or per annum. 7,300 0 0 .

ACOMPANY was propos e d a s h or t ti me s i nce f or t h e bene fit of the Consumers of Timber, which is now made com plete ; and the same reasons which induced the parties to bring that Company forward, exist to a greater ext en t i n th e M o d e o f Transit, hence arises th e necessity of the present Company. The great extent of this Trade must be evident, and those en gaged in it are put to considerable inconvenience for want of sufficient means for the conveyance of Timber to places where sold; consequently, much delay and extra expense are caused either to the Parties Selling or Buying, or great loss to ,the Team Keeper, from detention at the Wharfs where the Titiiber is to be Shipped. The inconveniences are so much felt, that notwithstanding the frenzied height to which Public Companies 'lave arrived, yet depending on the intrinsic merits- of this 'undertaking,— from its great necessity,—it is brought forwax with a confidence that the Public will see its utility; and at nce give their sup port for the benefit of such a large and i portant branch of the Commerce of this Port as the Timber '4 •ade. As a prospect of recompense for th' investment necessary, it is sufficient to know, that the Trade ill be great Subscribers to a concern so needful to them ;,ther. ore, this Company may de pend on being fully employed, c , ; -equentlY, that beneficial re sults must accrue is certain and . ident.

When it is considered that Southampton must become the great port of embarkation for all parties from the North, West. and South of England, for Geernsey and Jersey, France, and the whole Continent, and that, in addition to its present exten sive trade, it will ere long become " the Liverpool of the South," supplying from its port the extent of country at present supplied from the ports of London and Bristol, it cannot be surprising that this Railway should have been hailed, on its first announce ment, as one of immense importance, not only to Southamdton, hut, by con nec ti ng it se lf w i t h t h e contemplated Railway -from Portsmouth to that place, establishing a line of Railway which will bring together the Mining, Agricultural, and Manufactur ing Districts of Cornw a ll, Devon. Somerset, and Wilts—the Ports of Plymouth and Falmouth, Brighton, Arundell, Chi chester, Fareham,. Gosport, Portsea, Portsmouth, and the Eastern District of the Kingdom. The present traffic between Salisbury, Ronisey, and Southampton would, of itself; justify the expectation of an ample return for the capital to be em barked in the construction of this Railway; the distance is only twenty-two miles; the country is level, and requires no tun nelling or deep cutting; a great portion of the land 9n the line (now valueless) was levelled for the intended Southampton and .Salisbury Canal, and is well adapted for the Railway; but the great profit beyond an ample interest on the Capital must arise from the Junction which, by means .of this Railway, will be made with the important Districts referred to, and on vi,tving Southampton as the great Port of embarkation for, and as the receiving Port for the Produce of France and the Channel Islands. )NA I.

DOMINICK BROWNE, M.P., (now Lord Oraninore) Lord Lieutenant of the County of Mayo, in the Chair. Resared,—That the formation of a Railway across the centre of Ireland, from Dublin to the Atlantic, presents a most advan tageous opportunity for the invest men t o f cap i ta l , a ff or di ng increasing facility for traffic, both foreign and domestic, for bringing agricultural produce to market, and for drawing forth the vast resources of the Western Counties of Ireland to the benefit of that country and the empire at large. Resolved,—That Galway, from its maritime position, the ex tent of its harbour, its highly favourable capabilities for tamanu factures and fisheries, its p o p u l a ti on , an d ex t ens ive internal water communication, affords the strongest inducements, both as h as regards public utility and remunera ti ve i nves t me nt of capitoi t al for selectin g it as the most e li g ibl e t erm i nus o f the Railway on the West C oast of Ireland. of this Resolted,—That the Line laid out by the Engineers Company, crossing the Shannon at Athlone, , an o d t. 2 th o u o s manding at its centre a navigation of upwar through the upper and lower parts thatrisv, most that fitting direction for a Railroad across the Island, , being more generally accessible to the great bulk country n t h h tea. yvpaitoinpotuliiietga formationett ishoanoon,ff and embracing the general interests of the any other that could be selected. position it eso/ v e w d h , h T t h h a e t, oe i n o t raddition Ireland affordsliesuperior the proposed Railway, the e xtraord r i o n s a e r t ylevel which the coun try between Dublin and Galway pits being a distance of 118 British miles, at its highest elevation only 26S feet above the level of the sea, (an average rise of one foot in 800,) without any tunnelling, and with few cuttings and embankments, and possessing an abundance of Lime -stone throughout its extent, and Granite at each ex tremit y , off ers facilities for the comple tion of the work equal, if not superior, to those of any other part of the British Emp ire. the ci rcumstances set forth in the consideration, as a l so t h e cheapness of labour and land in i'li l n fel ad, the proposed Railroad may be constructed at a lower rate than any other hitherto proposed in the United Kingdom, and at an expense which, at the utmost, it is estimated will not exceed £lO,OOO per mile. Rego/red,—That from the solidity of the substratum, the abundance of excellent material along the entire Line, and the lowness of wages in Ireland," the expense of maintaining the Road will be exceedingly mo d erate. Resolved,—That, from the number of passengers who, from the direction of thi s li ne b isecting Ireland, will- be induced to take advantage of the facilities for travelling which it will afford to the greater part of Central and Western Ireland, particularly along that . portion front Dublin to Athlone, and from the con veyance of merchandise, a.ricultural produce, and fish, there is the very strongest assurance that this undertaking will prove highly remunerative for the Capital required. This great national Undertaking is supported by the prineipal Nobility, Gentry, and M e r ca ntil e P ersons a l ong th e p ro posed Line of Road, who have in many instances expressed their de terminationi not only to give gratuitously sufficient land for t o i e e . formation of the Line through their Estates, but also to become/ Shareholders, and support the measure to the u tmo . s o t t ( o f" wa i. power, and with this view have formed themselves into Local Committees.
