This Railway will commence at the important town of Wolver-
hampton, proceeding through or near to Seisdon, Trysull and'
Claverley, to the manufacturing town of Bridgnorth ; from thence
it will continue through a rich agricultural and populous district to
Ludlow, and there fall into other projected lines to all parts of Eng-
land, North and South Wales, and Ireland, a distance of about thirty-
two miles.
It will afford direct communication between Ludlow, Bridgnorth
and Wolverhampton, Dudley, &c.; and, by the South Staffordshire
Junction Railway, give to those towns and districts the most direct
route for passengers and goods to and from the Central, North Eastern
and Eastern parts of the Kingdom, and from which those towns have
hitherto been excluded by every project •f the day.
It will convey to the agricultural districts of Herefordshire and
South Shropshire, and also to the towns of Bridgnorth and Ludlow,
coals and the mineral productions of Staffordshire, Worcestershire,
and the Clee Hills, at nearly one-half the present cost of those ne-
cessary articles, and be the means of conveyance for corn, cattle,
sheep, cider, wool, hops and other agricultural productions, as also
timber from the before-mentioned agricultural counties, to the heart
of the mining and manufacturing districts, which cannot fail to pro-
duce an immense traffic.
To the towns embraced in this line, the value of obtaining thereby,
at tke cheapest rate, coal and the necessaries of life, will be of the ut-
most importance.
One principal feature in this projection is, that as either Ludlow or
Bridgnorth will lie in the direct route of one of the projects to be pro-
posed to Parliament in the next session, for the most direct commu-
nication between Ireland and the metropolis, this line will thereby
afford to passengers the easiest comimunication to and from the cen-
tral parts of the kingdom.
It is satisfactory to the promoters to state that they have the sanc-
tion of the Grand Junction Company,. and the co-operation of the-
Shrewsbury, Wolverhampton and South Staffordshire Junction, and
the South Staffordshire Junction Companies, and that no projeet has
been announced in competition with its acknowledged claim on public
support.
The whole line is free from engineering difficulties, and can be
constructed at a moderate cost, and has obtained the approval of the
landed interest, whose ornamental properties have been strictly pro-
tected.
Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained, the affairs of the
Company will be under the direction and control of the Committee of
Management, who are hereby empowered to enter into such arrange-
ments as shall best serve the interests of this Company, and the public,
with existing or projected Companies, and also to nominate the first
Directors of the Company.
Power will be taken under the Act to limit the responsibility of
shareholders to the amount of their subscription, and to allow four
per cent. interest on the calls.
Preference to the allotment of shares will be given to those locally
interested, and to the shareholders of lines In connexion with this.
No application for shares can in any case be attended to, unless
reference be made to one of the Provisional Committee, the Solicitors,
Bankers, or Brokers of the Company.

This railway will commence at Sheerness in conjunction with a
short steam-ferry communication from a point at or near to South-
end, on the opposite Essex coast, and will proceed from Sheerness
by Queenborough to Faversham, where it will form a junction with
one of the proposed lines from London by that town to Canterbury
and Dover.
The integral line will be continued from Faversham to or near to
Herne Bay,: and from thence to the South-Eastern Extension
Railway (now being made), at a point near Sarr, and will then pro •
ceed on that line direct to Ramsgate eastwards, and direct to Deal
south-eastwards. From a point between Herne Bay and Sarr the
line will also be carried by a short extension to Margate.
By this project Margee will bo placed within 75 miles of the me-
tropolis, instead of more than 100, as at present, and that too by a
direct line through Faversham, at which place it will meet the Lon-
don lines.
The important town of Itanas,gate, now so extensively connected
with continental communication, will also be thus afforded a much
nearer overland route to London.
By means also of this undertaking, in conjunction with the exist-
ing and projected railways proceeding to the south coast of Essex,
the whole of the passengers and traffic from the Northern, the Mid-
land,
and the Eastern Counties, will be conveyed to Dover and the
Continent via Sheerness, in preference to a lengthened and cir-
cuitous route through the metropolis, whereby the journey will be
shortened more than 50 miles, travelling expenses will be curtailed,
an the serious Inconvenience and delay of tranihipsment and con-
veyance from one part of London to another wholly avoided.
A glance at the map also will show the immense advantage which
the metropolis Itself will enjoy by its being thus afforded other routes
to Sheerness, Margate, Ramsgate, Deal, and Dover, and the greater
part of Kent. Thousands of persons will proceed direct from the me-
tropolis to Margate and Ramsgate throughout, whilst a multitude of
others will prefer landing at Sheerness and then proceed by this rail-
way, thereby shortening the journey and avoiding the sea.
The importance of a direct line from Sheerness to Dover as a
national object, and the immense existing traffic in the direction of
the undertaking, with the great increase which the improved and
enlarged modes of a communication throughout Kent will occasion,
must be too apparent to need further observation; and the Commit-
tee from careful inquiry feel confidence in stating that no scheme of
railway has yet been offered to public attention combining greater
public and private advantages.
About thirty-six miles of new railway only will embrace all the
above important objects—viz., from Sheerness to Faversham
about •••• • • • • ........ ..... ..... 12 miles.
Faversham to Herne Bay 10
Thence to Sarr ..... .................. •• 5
The extension to Margate •••...••••• • • • • .• • • • • 9

The country has already been preliminary surveyed, and found to
be exceedingly favourable. Indeed, it is almost a dead flat from
Faversham to Margate.
The landed proprietors are not only willing but desirous that the
undertaking should be accomplished,
and it i at the request of many
of them that the promoters have projected it.
The Committee reserve the power of making branches to Canter-
bury and to Deal, if circumstances shoul i hereafter render it ad-
visable. s
Applications for prospectuses, maps, and shares (in the usual form)
may be made to the Solicitors er Secretary, at the temporary offices,
24, Golden-square, or at No. 3, Hercules-court, City.

A correspondent assures us that the credit of im-
pressing a bathing machine into the service of royalty in its
aquatic excursions is not due to Louis Philippe. The idea
dates back so far as 1823, when Sir Edmund Nagle and Sir
Charles Paget bundled George the Fourth into a bathing-
machine at Brighton, the royal barge being at the same time
backed into the seaward steps of the machine, which thus
answered the purpose of a stepping-stone to his Majesty in
getting on board ship in shallow water.—Brighton Guardian.
TUE REGISTRATION.-It is satisfactory to know
that all is proceeeing well with regard to the registration,
and that the Liberals have gained a large accession of votes
to their majority. It was anticipated by the Conservatives
that a split would take place between the members of the
Anti-Corn-law League and other portions of the Liberal con-
stituency. We are happy to be able to state that such is no::
the case, there having been a good understanding restored
between the constituency and their representatives. A speedy
dissolution of Parliament, were it to take place, would there-
fore, fail to benefit. the Conservatives, or to place the repre-
sentatives of this borough again in their hands.—Cambridge
Advertiser.
