This impertant line of railway will commence near the Midland
Counties Station at Nottingham, whence, after crossing the navi-
gable River Trent, the line will proceed through or near Bridgeford,
Holine, E itcliffe, and the intermediate villages, Bingham, Dot-
tesford, Whatton, Elton, the rich and fertile Vale of Delved;
to the town of Grantham, thence passing through or near
Folkingliam and Bourn, or one of them, to Spalding, Long Sutton,
Sutton-bridge, and King's Lynn ,and there joining the intended Lynn and
East Dereham Rellway, will form the most direct line of connexion be-
tween the Eastern Counties, and the great and populous manufac-
turing districts of Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Staffordshire, by means
of the projected Grand Union Extension line to Amber Gate, and
other lines north of Nottingham ; and by means of the line to
Yarmouth will also form a communication between the Eastern and
Western coasts of the Kingdom.
The Southern parts of Lincolnshire, and the North Eastern parts of
Cambridgeshire, will be afforded a direct facility of intercourse with
some of the best markets in England.
The neighbourhood of Nottingham being the most Eastern part
of the Great Midland Coal Field, this Line will afford a supply of
Coals, as well as being the medium of transit of Derbyshire Lime
and Stone to the Agriculturists of South Lincolnshire, at a considein
rably cheaper rate than by other existing or projected Line ; in
short, the vast mineral wealth of the Midland District, will be ren-
dered available to the whole of the great agricultural country East
of Nottingham.
Surveys are now in progress, and the nature of the country is
known to offer no serious engineering difficulties, and a great portion
of the Lino will be nearly a dead level. The consideration of an ex-
tension of the Line from Spalding or Long Sutton to Wisbeach, will
also form a portion of the scheme.
The Report of the-Board of Trade on the Lines through Lincoln-
shire, says
" The total cost attending the transmission of a quarter of wheat
from the interior of Lincolnshire, by sea, from the port of Boston to
London, including freight, insurance, lighterage, commission, and
other charges, is stated to amcunt to very near 85. The charge by
Railway per quarter (allowing five quarters to the ton, at the charge
of 1 d. per ton, per mile, at which the estimate of the Cambridge
and Lincoln Railway is taken) would not exceed 25., and the re-
maining charges are calculated not to exceed 2s. Gd., thus showing
a benefit to the corn growers and to the public of 3s. Gd. per quarter,
occasioned by the saving of the sums now paid for insurance,
delay, loss in weight, depreciation of quality, lighterage, &e."
" A still more important advantage to the Farmer is afforded by
the opportunity given by railway communications of availing himself
promptly of the most favourable market. It frequently happens tha-
owing to the delay and difficulty of transmission, the Farmer Is come
polled to sell his wheat at the nearest provincial market at a price
considerably below the average rate, and to lose the advantage of a
temporary rise."
" Whatever tends to equalise prices and to prevent excessive fluc-
tuations cannot but be considered as a benefit both to the producer
and the consumer. We are satisfied that much may be done In the
way by en economical and well arranged system of railway com-
munication."
The same remarks apply to the whole of the great manulheturing
districts of Lancashire, Yorkshire, and Staffordshire.
The great quantity of land, amounting to 100,000 acres, about
to be redeemed from the sea by a company, with Sir John Rennie, as
Engineer for the promoters, and Mr. Bendel, for the Corporation of
Lynn, must ultimately prove of great advantage to this under-
taking. And, it it is conceived, that the Grand Union Railway must
meet with the cordial co-operation of the Midland Railways, as an
immense traffic will be brought along those lines en route to Birming-
ham, the l'otteries, and the whole of the manufacturing districts of
Staffordshire. The traffic upon the intended Nottingham and Mans-
field, Sheffield and Newark, Manchester, Sheffield, and Midland Junc-
tion, and the Sheffield and Manchester lines, must also derive a great
increase from ithisline of railwa The Cambridge :and Lincoln Rail-
waymust also be greatly benefited.
Power is intended to be reserved in the Act to allow 4 per cent. in-
.

GRAND UNION EXTENSION RAILWAY.
An Extension of the Grand Union Railway is determined upon,
from Nottingham to the Terminus of the intended Manchester and
Buxton Railway, at Amber-gate.
The Line will traverse the Great Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire
Coal Field, running from the Town of Nottingham, through or near
Lenton, Radford, Basford, Wollaton, Bulwell, Nuthall, Kimberley,
Watnall, Greasley, Newthorpe, Eastwood, Beaverlee, Brinsley, Set-
stone, Codnor, Butterley, I'entridge, Ripley, Menge, Hartsay, to Am.
ber-gate, and thus passing through a densely populated district, in
exhaustible in its mineral resources, and from whence an immense
degree of local tragic must be derived, it will complete, by its junc-
tion with the Grand Union and the Manchester and Brixton Lines, a
direct communication between the eastern and north-western parts
of the kingdom.
As this Line was originally a part of the plan contemplated by the
promoters of the Grand Union Railway, and was merely postponed
until it should be ascertained that the Manchester and Buxton Com-
pany would carry out their scheme of extension to Amber-gate, the
Shares. will be apportioned to the holders of Grand Union Shares in
the proportion of one to every three.

Whilst others exult in their beautiful dreBs
On "Coats and Surtouts" lay a wonderful stress,
Why thousands my usefulness gladly espouse,
And cherish with rapture the light Summer Elouso I
Oh I let but the dust in a whirlwind arise,
An envelope certain my presence supplies ;
In the heat of the san yon may gladly carouse,
If attired in the garb of the light Summer Blouse I
For railway excursions or trips on the sea,
Oh ! what is so useful and pleasant as me ?
I'm light as a fairy—the world too it knows
'What comfort there's found in the light Summer Blouse I

lIYAM determined all others to beat,
lie rates me too cheap, though my value Is great!
Whilst thousands and thousands he constantly shows
The price " three-and-six," for the light Summer Blouse I
Then ere the bright sun with its scorching hot rays,
And Whitsuntide comes with its great holidays !
Amidst the gay scenes if you wish to carouse,
First purchase of HI AM a light. Summer Blouse !I

ON ENTIRELY NEW PRINCIPLES,
TAILORING, WOOLLEN-DRAPERY, and
OUTFITTING ESTABLISHMENT, 29, LUDGATE-lIILL,

SAMUEL, BROTHERS, Proprietors.
We confidently and positively assert that our system will effect a
greater saving to the public in the article of dress, than has ever yet
been realised. The Establishment of SAMUEL, BROTHERS, is
the first in the world which has originated the judicious plan to
which publicity is now given—a plan which cannot fail to be hailed
with admiration, because, while it realises the most sanguine hopes
of the economist, will be a source of pride to its Inventors, based
as It Is on the most enlightened views, and conducted as it will be
upon the most honourable principles.
We will now state in what the novelty consists ; although simple in
its details, it is most beneficial to the public in its operation, and is
neither more nor less than this,—Every customer will bo enabled
to ascertain the value and quantity of material required for every
variety of garrsent—each and every Cloth, Cassinere, Doeskin, &c.
being marked in plain figures at the price per yard, such price being
the same as would be charged .upon the purchase of the material
by wholesale. We shall explain to our patrons the exact quantity
that will be necessary for the particular article of dress wanted, and
we shall charge separately for the making and trimmings. This
system, as a trial of its operation will abundantly demonstrate,
will effect a saving of fully one-third of the expense of the articles re-

quired in Gentlemen's dress.
The peculiar advantages of the system of SAMUEL, BROTHERS,
may be practicably exemplified as follows:—
e
The average quantity of Cloth for a Coat is IN yards, suppos
that selected be Bs. per yard, the material would cost 145., our
ebarge for making and trimmings would be 18s., thus a really good
serviceable Coat completed in the best style will be made to meas
the
ure
for 325. Again, suppose the Cloth selected to be 12s. per yard,
material would cost 215., our charge would be 2.05. for making and
trimmings, and thus a first-rate Coat made to measure ati coine
Ode(' in the best style will be obtained for 415., few, if say, charg
less than 50s or 525. for the same article. The same saving
will be
effected in every description of Clothing.
Our charge for making and trimming a Coat for Cloths under 10s.
per yard is 18s. and for the higher price Cloths 20s.
In quality of cloths, variety of patterns for Trousers—richness
and novelty in designs for Vestings, we flatter ourselves that wo
have a stock that will please every hphol(ler.
Noblemen and Gentlemen on inspecting our mode of transacting
business, will be astonished at the saving they may effect in their
Liveries, in many instances nearly one-half.
In order to give every satisfaction, we promise that should an
article, after it has been paid for, not please, we will exchange it, or
return the money without deniur.
