The Provisional Committee regret the delay that has occurred in
the allotment of the shares, but they have now the satisfaction of
stating that the negotiations with the various parties interested in
the success of this Company are proceeding most favourably, and
that a great portion of the capital has been applied for, and will be
appropriated to those several influential Companies. which will be in
communication with the Central Terminus.

The following Gentlemen, Directors of various Railways tertninat-
ing in the metropolis, having now united themselves with this under-
taking, have been added to the Provisional Committee.

The Right Honourable the Earl oiKilmorey, Director of the Staines
and Richmond Railway Company

The Committee take this opportunity ofstating that in order to ensure
the completion of a line of railway along the north bank ofthe Thames
to the City, they have determined on extending the embankment
portion of their project from Waterloo-bridge to the City as intimated
in their original prospectus, provided the Committee do not arrange
with some other party of sufficient railway influence by which this
extension may be effected, and they h.tve accordingly taken the pre-
caution of registering this addition to the scheme.
The necessity of a central terminus is daily becoming more urgent,
which is evinced by the many schemes which have been brought
before the public for that purpose since the prospectus of this
Company was first published, but with the great accession of
strength the Committee have now obtained by the valuable co-
operation of the several influential railway Directors above-men-
tioned, the Committee feel confident they need fear no opposition.
The allotment of the shares will take place as soon as possible, of
which due notice will be given.—By order

JOHN F. NEALE, Secretary.

HULL AND BARNSLEY JUNCTION
RAILWAY COMPANY.
(Registered Provisionally).
Capital 500,0001., in 25,000 Shares of 201. each.
Deposit per Share.
This undertaking Is designed for effecting the most direct practi-
cable line of railway communication between the important sea-
port of Hull and the manufacturing districts, particularly that of
which Manchester is the centre and metropolis.
Whilst other sea-ports are exerting ail their energies to accom-
plish direct lines of intercourse by railway with the large towns in
the interior, the question forces itself upon the inhabitants of Hull,
whether or not they will remain inactive, and permit other ports, of
comparative obscurity, so far to outstrip them in the race of im-
provement, as to abstract front the port of Hull an important part of
the commerce she has so long enjoyed, and for which her present
docks, and other extensive ones now in progress, offer every accom-
modation and facility.
A large portion of the trade of Hull arises from the export of the
manufactures of the north-western parts of England, and from the
import of the' various materialt and articles required for those manu-
factures, and for the support of the enormous population employed in
them. It cannot, therefore, but be obvious, that to secure the most
direct practicable line of railway communication between Hull and
Manchester, is an object of vital importance—nay, of absolute neces-
sity, if Hull desires to maintain her present rank as the third port in
England.
These considerations induce the promoters of the Hull and
Barnsley Junction Railway to submit to the public, and to the In-
habitants of Hull especially, the project of a railway, being in effect
an extension of the Hull and Selby line to Barnsley, with the full con-
viction that it will meet with extensive and cordial support.
Whether it may be more desirable that the projected railway. shall
commence from Selby, or diverge from the Hull and Selby line near
Howden ; and whether it shall terminate by a junction with the
Midland Railway near Barnsley, or be continued to Penistone, there
to join the line of the Manchester and Sheffield Railway, are ques-
tions for future decision, after the Provisional Committee shall have
accepted office, and the report of William Cubitt, Esq., the eminent
engineer proposed to be consulted, shall have been obtained. This
project will involve the construction of from twenty-five to thirty
miles of railway, through a country highly favourable ; the line will
cross and communicate with the Wakefield, Pontefract, and Goole,
and such direct lines between London and York as may obtain the
sanction of Parliament.
The neighbourhood of Barnsley abounds with valuable minerals,
and the prospect of a large traffic on the projected railway is, in all
respects, most encouraging.
A large proportion of the Shares in the Company is intended to be
appropriated to Shareholders in the Hull and Selby Railway Com-
pany, and in alloting the remainder a preference will be given to
parties locally interested, and to proprietors of railways immediately
connected with the line.
A prospectus will be published In a short time with the names of a
most influential Provisional Committee; in the meantime, further
information may be obtained, and applications for Shares addressed
(in the form given below), to the promoters' solicitors,

I request that you will allot to me shares of 201. each in

quired.
