This Railway is projected for the purpose of uniting the Rhondda
and Ely \rallies, with the South Wales Railway, at a few miles dis-
tance from the Port of Cardiff; and to open a new mineral district,
one of the richest and most important in South Wales, which is at
present without the means of transit for its immense and ♦aluable
products.
It will pass through the central portion of the great coal-field of
Glamorganshire, the 'geological formation of which is decidedly
proved to afford most excellent coal and iron-stone in greater abun-
dance than any other in• the kingdom, with facilities of sniping ac-
cess seldom equalled, and the quality of the coal is admirably
adapted for steam purposes and the manufacture of iron.
An inexhaustible supply of limestone (so necessary for the manu-
facture of iron and for agricultural purposes) may be obtained by
means of this Railway, much nearer and oheaper than by any other
line.

It is intended that the line shall commence at Blaen Rhondda, the
head of the Rhondda Valley, and proceed down to a natural pass
between the hills at Ffrwd Amws, a distance of eight miles, where it
will enter the Ely Valley and proceed down (a' further distance of
six miles) to Lanelay-bridge,' near Lantrissent, and there join the
South Wales Railway, thus opening a communication under the most
advantageous circumstances as to distance, with all the ports in the
British channel.

SECRETARY —Henry Moreing, Esq. •
At several large public meetings held in October last, at Brantford,
Isleworth, and Ilounslow, resolutions were unanimously passed fu
favour of establishing a railway communication with the metropolis,
and the Gazette notices were actually published ; but the difficulty
of obtaining a suitable terminus in London induced the principal
promoters of this important undertaking to postpone bringing their
scheme before the public.

This Impediment has now been overcome, and by a proposed June-
Mu with the Central Terminus and tilt Thames Embankment Rail-
way, -parties travelling by this line will be enabled to proceed
directly to the heart of the metropolis ; and by the united Railways,
which will ramify from this point, to almost every part of the country
without interruption.

By the intended Junction, also, with the Great Western Railway,
at or near West Drayton, and by the intersection of the Birmingham
Railway at Kensington, these important lines will be supplied with
direct access to the Central Terminus, and thence to the City, or to
the Southern and Easttra Lines.
The proposed line, whi .11 passes through or near the extensive and
pcipuleus suburbs of Pimlico, Chelsea, Brompton; Kensington, Ham-
mersmith, Chiswick, and Turnham-green, to the town of Brentford,
and thence to Isleworth, Hounslow, and West Drayton, has received
the moat Coidial approbation and promises of support from the great
majority of the inhabitants and other parties locally interested.
Thig. line is singularly free from engineering difficulties ; and,
although there is almost a complete continuity of town and village
throughout the whole distance, yet, from the care with which the
line has been laid dbivn, so as to avoid property covered with build-
ings, and to take adVantage of open and unoccupied spaces, the
value of the ground to be purchased will not be nearly so grcat
from the nature of the localities, would be inferred. By the adop-
tion of the Atmospheric principle, or some equally eligible mode of
working, the annoyances, inseparable from the locomotive system
will be obviated, and the advantage of almost constant trains, so in,
dispensable to this densely:populated district, will be secured.
The population of the Various places at which stations are proposed
to be erected on the present line is not less than 200,000, and to give
setae idea of the large amount of traffic which may be calculated
upon, it may be stated that the present annual income derived from
the carriage of passengers, by omnibuses alone, amounts to above
100,0001. ; wider these circumstances, no doubt cau be entertained of
a very ample return for the capital required for this important work.
The preliminary announcements of this undertaking have referred
to it as the London, Itientford, Ilounslow, and Great Western Junc-
tion Company—a title which the Provisional Committee have upon
further consideration, altered to the present designation, in order to
chatingniSh it from other schemes similar in name, but differing in
their proposed course.
The surveys of the line are completed, and every arrangement will
be made for applying to Parliament for an Act in the ensuing session,
previously to which the plans will be laid before the Metropolitan
Commissioners of Improvement for their approval.
Applications for shares, in the subjoined form, may be made, ad-
dressed to the Provisional Committee, at the temporary Offices of
the Company, 18, Parliament-street, to the Solicitors and Parlia-
mentary Agents, and to the following agents and sharebrokers :

PROSPECTUS.
The object of this line of Railway is to complete the chain of coast
communication, and form a connexion with lines already established
or projected with reasonable hopes of success.
It will commence at or near the city of Limerick, and taking a nor-
therly direction, proceed through the counties of Clare, Galway, Mayo,
and Sligo, terminating at Sligo, by a junction with the Sligo and I:lints-
k filen Railway, and accommodating on its route the important cities and
towns of Limerick, Ennis, Gort, Loughrea, Athenry, Monivea, 'ream,
Ballinrobe, Castlebar, Westport, Foxford, Ballina, Kilalla, Swineford,
Streamstown, and Sligo, which torn being connected with the north,
east, and south, by the different lines through Enniskillen, London-
derry, Coleraine, Belfast, Armagh, Newry, Dundalk, Drogheda.
Dublin, Wicklow, Wextbrd, Waterford, Cork, Killarney, Valenti*,
Tralee, and Limeriek, the establishment of this line will cause Ire-
land to present a completeness of locomotive communication which
no other country in the world enjoys.
The country through which the proposed line travels is most fertile
in mineral and agricultural products ; it embraces many extensive
coal fields, whose advantages it will extend to all parts of Connaught
and Ulster; and intersecting, as it does, so many metropolitan dines
of railway, it will develop° those advantages iu an equal degree

from the fact of upwards of five hundred fairs beir.g held annually
in its immediate vicinity, among them, the fair of Ballinasloe, ac-
knowledged the greatest for sheep and cattle in the British islands.
It has been ascertained that the country presents great engineering
facilities for the construction of a railway, and in communications
which have been received from the landowners along the line, the
greatest anxiety is manifested for its completion.
The subscribers will be held liable only to the extent of their first
deposits until an Act of Parliament is obtained,and
afterwards only
to the amount of their subscriptions,
Power will be applied for in the Act—and In the meantime Is
belay given to the Committee—to alter the capital, if necessary ;to
vary or abandon any part of the line, to make branch lines, or
enter into arrangements with any other company or companies ; and
also to nominate the first directors of the company.
The Parliamentary contract and subscribers' agreement will be
ready for signature on payment of the deposits.
It will be seen from the plan that the railway intersects many nudes
lines, and will thus contribute to, and receive from ,them a -con-
siderable amount in passenger and merchandise traffic.
..Frorn the estimates that .have been made, a return of at least 10
per cent. must. he realised on the capital.

This railway Is intended to commence at the termiand of and
=nits with the Nottingham and Lincoln Railway, at Lincoln, and to
proeead by or near Wragby and Market Raisen to Great Grimsby,
with a branch from or near Market Raisen to Louth, and a branch
from the main line near to and through Wragby to Horneastle.
The length of the main line from Lincoln to Grimsby will be about
82 Wiles, the branch to Louth about 10 miles, and the branch to
ilenteastle about 14 miles—together 56 miles.
The advantages of the line will be self-evident to those acquainted
with the locality ; amongst other benefits, it !nay be observed, that
this lice will form a direct and speedy eemmunication between the
port of Groat Grimsby and the midland and western counties, as well
as the metropolis ; and the port of Great Grimsby (which may now be
looted upon as the future Liverpool of the Humber) is admitted by
maritime and practical men to be the best situated northern port'of
bland tim the whole of the markets of the continental Europe.
ghinee at the map of Europe will show its superfer local advantages.
The completion of this undertaking will facilitate a passenger
traftle as well as the transmission of grain, cattle, butter, wool, tim
bee, stone, lime, manure, and other goods and merchandise, to and
tom the great ces
towns of Bir
vemingham, Coventry, Leiter, Derby,
.Nottingham. Manchester, Lirpool, and the intermediate towns and
mounfaeturing districts, and will open the coal-fields of Nottingham-
shirr, Leieestershire.• and Derbyshire, to Lincolnshire, and a direct
conitiunication between the midland and western counties and the
porbof Great Grimsby for ex- ortation and impartation to and from
the vaarkets of enminental Europe. It will likewise render easy of
access that ancient and now Inuch-frequented and improving sea-
bathing place Cleethorpee, to and from which place a large amount
of paisenger traftte may be relied on, being within the distance of
two miles from the proposed terminus at Great Grimsby.
The county of Lincoln abounds in agricultural productions, whilst
It Is believed an Inadequate recompense has hitherto accrued to
these engaged therein, by reason of which both produce and land
mein been depreciated in value, but now important advantages
will present themselves to both the agricultural and mercantile in-
terest.
The eradicate of the line are exceedingly favourable, and the
expanse of oonstraction will be unusually low; the promoters have
therefore every reason to anticipate a most satisfactory return for
the capital to be invested.
The plan of this Company also comprises one of great satiosal in-
to est, when viewed In connexion with other Improvements of the
Tort of Great Grimsby, and the formation of a harbour of renige
for tie German and Baltic Seas.
The Committee of Management have much pleasure in announc-
ing to the public that this undertaking has the cordial approval and
.aappert of the Midland Railway Company.
Application will be made for power to allow interest at the rate of
41. ecr oent. on all deposits and calls paid up, and for restricting the
