Local committes will speedily he formed, and communica tions on the subject are desired is soon as convenient. The names of bankers, directors, 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 Metro politan Literary Journal, 13, Wellington-street, Strand, Lon don; where, in the meantime, applications for shares may be made, and will be duly registered and laid with the bankers. For the satisfaction of those numerous parties in the country interested in the present undertaking, it is necessary here to state generally the object and intention of the committee of ma nagement, and further information will afterwards be afforded. This new political journal is instituted under powerful pa tronage for the purpose of thwarting in some measure the avowed designs of the numerous radical 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 own form and character —of spreading more widely and generally throughout the coun try (by a proper explanation, which is never attempted), prin ciples of a Conservative tendency—and of procuring a distinct organ of Conservatism to communicate the proceeding of the different Conservative Associations. The principles upon which this journal will be conducted, are of a very simple and intelligible character, for they have been advocate'd by the greatest and wisest men this country his ever produced, and are those now upheld by his Grace the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel. They are to defend at all times, and with all earnestness, the strict and inviolable union now happily existing between church and state; tomaintain the throne in all its integrity, and against all arbitrary en croac h men t whether from within or from without; to uphold th e f u ll an d entire independence of both Houses of Par liament against the monarchy and the people on the one hand, and their own mutual inroads on the other; and to 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 especially intended to represent the shipping, the agricultural, and other depressed interests; and will devote a careful attention to the proceedings of the various railway, mining, canal, and other companies. Shareholders are more particularly sought 6r among the clergy, the Conservative clubs, and associations, the shipping and agricultural districts and associations. 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 subsciibe for more than two shares ; for this purpose 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 advanced; and to subscribers, in addition; a considerable per centage will be allowed on adver tisements , sufficient to repay them for their outlay. In order, moreover, to meet with the literary taste of the British public, the " Metropolitan Literary Journal," which is edited by a gentleman of high standing in contemporary litera ture, will, as soon as the duty is removed, be immediately stamped and sent to all parts of the empire, thus allowing the Conserva tive Journal more entire and exclusive space for the diffusion of its political opinions. Letters (post-paid) addressed to J. WALKER Ono, Esq., office of the "Metropolitan Literary Journal," 13, Wellington-street, or 29, Northumberland -street, Strand, London, will he laid before the committee, and all in quiries replied to. Early applications fur shares are also re quested, as a considerable number are .already secured by immediate friends of the undertaking, and in the country. N.13.—1t may not be out of place here to add, that this was the first journal proposed to be established on the present principle, and the announcement was only delayed from the uncertainty existing in the present stamp regulations. • Public liobio, AT the SPECIAL VESTRY, held by adjournment at the SESSIONS'-HOUSE, on TUUSDAY the 17th day of May, 1836, to take the Poll for the.

FIFE JUNCTION RAILWAY CIONNECTING the County of FIFE with the Counties on the North side of the TAY, on the one , a, and those on the South side of the FORTH on the other tus forming clink of union between the Ferries on the Fort and the 'Fay, by con necting the Dundee and Newtyle Rai -v, with its branches to Cupar and Quintals, the Dundee F .fir, and Arbroath Rail ways, present, bef• ire Parliament, and at their intended exten sion of them to Kirriernuir, Brechin and Montrose, as well as the proposed Railway from Dundee to Perth, with the great Railways on the South of the Forth, particularly the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway—the Edinburgh, Haddington, and 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 from London by York to the Scottish metropolis. 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 agrieultura4.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 equal ex 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 extent of the increased communication may be formed, when it is considered that during the year 1835 there-were upwards of 75,000 passengers between Newhaven and Burntisland, Pettvour, and Kirkaldy, and up wards 34,000 between Newhaven;Dundee, and Aberdeen, &c. The quantity of goods which would be carried along a railway connecting the two ferries would be very considerable. The manufactures of Dundee and of the other towns on the lines of the railway ou 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 carrid at 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 'Fay is considered. There are at preseiiit imported into Dundee about 300,000 tons of Scotch coals annii ally. If a cheap and speedy communication by a railWav 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 great advantages to the country at large, which the formation of a railway between the Fife and Tay ferries would produce, it has been resolved by a number of gentlemen to endeavour to carry it into effect, and that as promptly, economically, and beneficially for the share holders and the public as its great accessibilities will admit. THE LINE. The two termini of the line are proposed to be Port on Craig or Newport on the north, and Bruntisland. or wherever the pro 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 extremities of the line will be about thirty-two miles, and when respect is paid to the recent great improvements in the formation of railways it is expected that the costs will be less than £lO,OOO a mile, hut 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.

No Applications fur Shares will be received after SATURDAY, the 28th instant. 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 Kirkaldy and Dundee for exporting, 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 90,0(YJ annually, exclusive of those travelling farther north, and who would also avail themselves of the railway through Fife. But say that the increase of passengers wag 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 250,000 passengers for various distances, this would yield yearly £35,250 0 0 Goods, consisting of coal, lime, grain, flax yarn, &c. &c., carried along the railway, at least .... 18,000 0 0 £53,250 0 0 Deduct expense of maintenance and manage ment, conveyance, &c 17,750 0 0 35.500 0 0' Yielding a profit of upwards of 11 per cent. annually on the capital stock.

(Name and residence of Applicant.) PROSPECTUS OF AN ASSOCIATION; TO BE CALLED THE LIVERPOOL JOINT STOCK COMPANY, FOR. THE INVESTMENT OF CAPITAL IN THE PUR CHASE AND SALE OF LAND AND BUILDINGS IN LIVERPOOL AND ITS VICINITY, CAPITAL, ,£300.1X)0, IN 30,000 SHARES AT £lO EACH, With power for the Company to augment the Capital increasing the number of Shares. lir HE object of this Company will be to e )loy the Capital to be advanced in the Purchse a Sale of Land and Buildings in the Town and Neighbour od of Liverpool, in such a manner as to secure the payment o at least .C 5 per cent. Interest,'with a certain prospect of a future increase of Interest, from the great demand for public and private situations. This appeal is made to the public under the firm -conviction that the proposed Association will afford a safe and profitable investment, that it is not liable even to the character of Specu lation, that it is perfectly free from all attempts to mislead the public mind, and that it has no feature in common with .any of those delusions which characterise too many of the ephemeral projects of the present day.

PROSPECTUS Of a line of Navigation from Birmingham to London, commencing at the Stratford-on-Avon Canal in Warwickshire, and ending at the Regent's Canal, London; ►o he called THE LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM CANAL NAVIGATION. _ rlirlHE great and leading objects of the proposed undertaking, are— First.—To effect the cheapest, and most direct practicable line of water communication , between Lond ir and Birming ham. and the great mining districts of S ordshire, Worces tershire, and Shropshire. Second.—To obtain, by the communic it will open with the Regent, Stafford, W or cester, Birmin ham, Birmingham and Liverpool, Ellesmere and Chester, Trent and Mersey, and Bridgewater Canals, the quickest, cheapest, and most conve nient line of canal conveyance between London, Birmingham, Liverpool, and Manchester roved by a junction with the Oxford Canal at Banbury, an imp communication to the city of Oxford. Third.—To give the facilities and advantages of water con veyance, to the valuable and extensive districts through which the proposed line of navigation is intended to be taken;—dis tricts, capable of great and rapid improvement, and to' which nothing can so materially contribute, as a cheap and direct communication with the Metropolis , _ and the great manufac turing: t o wns of Warwickshire and Staffordshire. It must be evident, that the proposed undertaking embraces objects of the highest national importance; and cannot fail to produce great and almost incalculable advantages, to the Agri cultural, Commercial, and Manufacturing interests of the kingdom. The extraordinary facility that this line would give to London and Liverpool, to the manufacturers Manchester, Birmingham, Wolverhampton, Dudley, Stourbridge, and Walsall, and to the Proprietors of Mines and Works, in the counties of Stafford, Worcester, and Salop, must be obvious to the most superficial observer.—Birmingham and Wolverhampton, and the con tiguous mineral districts, would then be situated about midway, on.the great throughfare water communication between London and Liverpool, and London and Manchester, and as vessels would be passing incessantly in each direction, the increased facility and despatch could not but be productive of the highest advantages. The seeing in distance by the proposed route will be 36 miles, and the locks will be reduced from 172 to 44. One great feature of the proposed iindertaVing,isthe opening of a cheap communication, between the Metropolis anti the great Coal . Fields of• Staffordshire and Worcestershire.' • In the • attainment of this object, every inhabitant of London ought to feel himself interested; experience ever' day furnishing addi tional proofs, that nothing but effective competition from the in terior of the kingdom, can insure to the householders of London a regular and steady supply of Coal. at moderate prices. Per haps it is scarcely possible for the most sanguine minir to form an adequate conception of the benefits that would result from enabling the Midland Coal proprietor, to compete with the Northern proprietor, in supplying London with Coal ;—mono . poly would be rendered impossible, combination frustrated, and free and active competition completely secured. By the pro posed itoute Staffordshire Coal can be delivered in the City Basin, at pi ices varying with quality, from 15s. to 20s. per ton. With a view to render this concern as extensively useful as possible, the rates of tonnage will be low, and thus command that great mass of business which invariably follows moderate charges. Manure and Road Materials will be permitted to pass at low rates. Wharfs will be provided where the Canal will intersect main thoroughfares, and every encouragement be afforded to the free developement of the energies of the districts through which the Canal will pass. The proposed navigation will possess all the improvements of the . best modern canals. Where tunnelling is necessary two. tunnels, , with a towi n g p a th under each, will be made ; the sides f the canal will he walled ; and the greated of all modern improve ments, the double towing path, will be carried throughout the whole line. Confident in the superior cheapness and convenience of water conveyance, (particularly as regards raw materials and heavy commodities). the promoters of this undertaking have no hesita tim in submitting their plan to the public, in the face of the numerous railways now in course of formation; every day, in their judgment, furnishing further and satisfactory proof, that though railway conveyance may be preferred for passengers, and light goods that require dispatch and will bear high rates of transit, the great hulk of the trade of the country will still be carried on through the medium of cheap navigable communi cations. The calculations as to the revenue being founded on indis putable data, the promoters of the measure have no hesitation in stating, that the prospect of remuneration is, in the highest degree, encouraging; and that, if due consideration be given to the merits of the proposed line, to the great extent and sim plicity of its levels, to the superiority it will possess in respect to distance and lockage, to the well-ascertained fact that a lull supply• of water ran be provided, the conclusion wil l he fully warranted, that in a short time after its completion, this really grand internal communication will yield such a return, as will entitle it to be classed amongst the most productive and success ful undertakings of the kind in the Kingdom. According to a moderate Estimate, full ten per cent, will he realized. By the proposed route Goods will he delivered in London in thirty-two hours, instead of seventy, by the existing route, the saving in Freight Vs. nerton. • Applications for shares to he made to the Sor.icrrons. and to Me,,srs. •PALNIER and HOPE, 2, North Piazza, Royal Exchange, according to the form annexed; Mr. RICHARD DAWSON, Share-hroker, EXchange-alley, or Mr. JONATHAN SAUNDERS, Share-broker, Exchange-street East, Liverpool; and no shares will be secured until the deposit is 1 a'.d. MAY 20 18f-6. Vublit /3obit,s, HERCULANEUM POTTERY DOCK ESTATE. TT has been resolv e d by th e Proprietors o f thi s E s t a te, that it hould be offered to the Public on somewhat similar terms to those by which the . Harrington Dud: Company have become possessed of the adjoining LantL The ESTATE consists of the Pottery, and the Dock belong ing to it, in Lease to Messrs. Moi t and Simpson; the Ship building Yard, in Lease to Mr. Duncan Gibb ; an excellent Landing Slip and Pier equal to any on the River; eight Houses. forming the Park Terrace ; about sixty Cottages, and a large quantity of unenclosed Beach and Land to the eastward, the whole. containing, exclusive of Roads, abo v e 150,000 square yards of FREEITOLD LAND, with a frontage to the River of 420 yards lineal. The southern bou n d ary i s already lielosed hy a strong Ashlar Wall, and a considerable portion of the foundation and side walls of a New Graving Dock (of the same dimensions as No. l of the Liverpoo4Graving Docks) is built iinmed . ely adjacent; and it is intended to form the entrance of s lent width to al low the passage of‘first-class Steamer out the customary and expensive meihod usually adoi ed of unshipping their Paddle Boxes. The great extent and compactness of this Property render it capable of being tu rne d t o most pro fi ta bl e account; an d for Wharfs, Shipbuilders' Yards, Forwarding Agents, Depots for Goods requiring transhipment, Yards requiring great space con nected with a Shipping Station, or anv of the general purposes of a Commercial Town, this Estate offers advantages now DO 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-stree t may be readily made by means of a Canal. Numerous applications for the Land, both to rent and put chase Lots, have been made, and from its proximity to the Docks, and the seat of the Timber Trade, it will be occupied as fast as it can be prepared. It is intended that the Steamers to and from the Royal Roe ] ~ Ferry, whi c h i s di rect ly oppos it e t h e P otter i es, s h a ll ply- to th e to the new Slip, and where Passengers, Carriages, and Cattle can be securely shipped and landed; and the quiet and conveni ent access to all parts of the town from the Pier will necessaril9 render it a principal place of passage. From the extent of this Property the Proprietors are desirous of being joined in this undertaking by those whose occupations render the situation desirable, and who will consequently be free from th e li a bility of removal; and to the Capitalist there is a certainty of commensurate return in the future improvetnea t and increased value of the Property, and that without the smallest risk. It is intended, therefore, that a Company be formed for the purchase and management of this Estate, having a Capital of £220,000, in 2,200 Shares of £lOO each, which includes a con templated outlay, according to the estimates made for finishinir the Works, of £IO,OOO. A Deposit of £lO per Share to be paid on allotment of the Shares, and the remainder of the Capital by instalments every three months. Plans and Descriptions of the Property, and Estimates of the cost of completing the projected improvements, may be seen, and applications for Shares left, at the Offices of Messrs. LACK , SONS. and MrEas, Solicitors, Castle-street; Messrs. LOW N DES and RoutrisoN, Solicitors, Brunswick-street; Mr. FoasYril Share Broker, Exchange; Messrs. H. BANNER, SON; " 5 THOMPSON. Share Brokers, Castle-street; and Mr. WaLrEg- CLARKE, Share Broker, Imperial Office. PROSPECTUS OF THE EGREMONT AND LISCARD JOINT STOCK LAND, BRICKMAKING, AND BUILDING COMPANY. CAPITAL, £30,000, IN 5000 SHARES OF £lO tActi. rIpHE Property consists of upwards of 41,000 square yards of AL 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 f • ita;.. , ,e of up wards of 600 yards to a road of 16 yards .e, which runs parallel with (and only a narrow field's.brea , h of) the shore of the Mersey, and commanding (from its ele • tion) unobstructed views up and down the river and of the 4 , rounding country, is, it is presumed, admirably adapted for .e erection of Marine Villas. The Estate is Freehold, and has a reserved right of a Car riage and Foot Road down to the shore where there is a tine gravel beach, well suited for Seabathing, and from its contiguity to the established Ferry of Egremont, and the projected Fer ries, (the Liscard and Alostyn,) a punctual steam communica tion with Liverpool (which is only distant about one mile) may be relied upon. The pure and salubrious air of this part of the Cheshire coast, and its advantageous position as "a watering place, render this scite at once a desirable retreat for the private gentleman, the valetudinarian, and the man of business; advantages which will be peculiarly obvious to the rapidly increasing population of Liverpool and its numerous visitors. The owner of this Estate has the right of getting stone (free from any charge) from a quarry in the immediate 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 clay immediately and make as many bricks in the course of the summer as will be sufficient for the erection of the proposed buildings, thereby avoiding the nuisance ever attendant upon the making of this article, and at once effecting a great saving of expense and loss in carting . and breakage. As it is a well known fact that the profits arising from brickmaking are very great where a rapid consumption can be guaranteed, and as Coals can be obtained here at a low rate, it is presumed that this Company will realize a profit from this branch of the undertaking which will alone repay, them the cost price of the land. -The,whole..gf,the above valuable property is offered for the sum of £l3, MO, and it .is determined to form a Joint-Stock. Company, with a proposed Capital of i.:50,000, in 5000 Shares of £lO 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 lots to suit the convenience of purchasers, in preference to this Company erecting the whole of the proposed buildings, not one-half of the above capital may ever be required. The conditions of the Company are— That the Capital is to be £50,000, in £5OOO Shares of £lO each, and to be called " The Egremont and Lzscard Joint Stock Land, Brickmciking, and Building Company." " That E.:3 per Share (with one shilling per Share for the ex penses of forming the Company,) be paid on allotment by sub scribers. That not more than £5 per Share be called for the first twelve months, including the £3 deposit, nor more than El each call, of which thirty days previous notice will be given. That the Company shall be under the management of a Pro visional Committee, until five Directors are appointed by the Subscribers at a general meeting to be called for that purpose after the allotment of the shares. _ That Directors to be holders of not less than forty shares.. That the remainder of the capital be paid in calls as required by the Directors, each call not to exceed £1 per Share, and thirty days previous notice to be given of any such call. That a Proprietor of five Shares shall have at all meetings ne vote; ten Shares, two votes; twenty Shares, three votes; and forty Shares and upwards, five voles. That absentees may vote by proxy, such proxy being a Share holder. That a reserve of Shares, not exceeding 200, he made for the Provisional Committee, on which they are to be entitled to the same benefit as the subscribers on the shares allotted. That two of the Directors shall retire at each Annual Meet ing. but shall be eligible to be re-elected. That the Shareholders shall not be liable beyond the amount of their shares. That a Deed of Settlement consistent with the above terms be prepared, to be signed by the Subscribers on payment of the deposit, when scrip certificates will be delivered. Applications for Shares, (if by letter post paid,) according to the form underneath, to be addressed to the Provisional Com mittee, at Messrs. BRABNER and ATRINsoNts, Solicitors, F en .

CAPITAL £150,000, IN 30,000 SHARES OF £5 EACH. 410EPOSIT £1 PER SHARE. rri a ll re S C atd o ith m e p a a l n t y ha iest s he been formed in Consumers of order Gasin to th ovite e b E a aste th rn e Division of London have had to contend with; the Directors purpose supplying a pure Gas at 30 per cent. under the rates as at present paid, securing an ample supply not only to the con sumers by burner, but also to those that burn by meter, for whom a separate main will be laid down. This Company does not come forward as others have done, "upon the ground of public good," for while they afford the public the great advantige they promise, yet in so doing they secure to themselves and to the shareholders a dividend of 15 per cent. for their capital embarked. The immense and continued increase in the consumption of •Gas, both for public and private use, renders a Company of this description beyond doubt a sure and certain investment, as many years will not elapse before it supercedes the use of fuel altogether, as its utility in heating and culinary purposes are now fully established; its economy and cleanliness will make it the more desirable for such purposes. From the many and recent improvements, both in the manu facture of Gas and in the construction of Works and Machinery, this Company does possess great advantages over any at present established, having the benefit of all without the original expense. The Directors are determined to adhere to the strictest eco , noiny, both in the construction of works and in every other branch of the establishment, and by so doing they can pledge themselves to supply Gas at the redaction as stated, and at the same time ensure to the shareholders a larger Dividend than any other similar Company ever did pay. CONDITIONS. lst.—The Capital of the Company will consist of £150,000, in 30,000 Shares of £5 each. 2d.—No Shareholder will be responsible beyond the amount of his respective shares. 3d.—The deposit of £1 per share will be available for the ne cessary expenses of the undertaking.

THE TIMBER CARRYING COMPANY A COMPANY was proposed a short time since for the bene rk 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 extent in the Mode of Transit, hence arises the necessity of the present ompany. The great extent of this Trade must be evident • ( those en gaged in it are put to considerable inconve • ce for want of sufficient mef.ns for the conveyance of Tit er to places where sold; consequently, much delay and e eXpense are caused either to the Parties Selling or Buyi g, or great loss to the Team Keeper, from detention at the Wharfs where the Timber is to be Shipped. The inconveniences are so much felt, that notwithstanding the frenzied height to which Public Companies have arrived, vet depending on the intrinsic merits of this undertaking,— iron , ' its great necessity,—it is brought forward with a confidence that the Public will see its utility; and at once give their sup port for the benefit of such a large and important branch of the Commerce of this Port as the Timber Trade. As a prospect of recompense for the. investment necessary, it is sufficient to know, that the Trade will be great Subscribers to a concern so needful to them; therefore, this Company may de pend on being fully employed, consequently, that beneficial re sults must accrue is certain and evident. The Capital to be raised by 20,0tX) Shares of £lO each, pay able, £1 in 14 days after appointment of Directors and Trustees, and each call afterwards to be made as it may be found neces sary; but not to exceed £2, or in a less period than two months from the preceding call. is per Share to be paid on receiving the Scrip, to defray contingent expenses in forming the Com pany.
