GREAT EASTERN AND WESTERN
RAILWAY.

Offices, 5, Gresham-street, Bank,
London, November 7, 1845.
The Acting Committee of the Great Eastern and Western Railway
Company have much satisfaction in inflaming the Proprietors that
they have concluded an arrangement with the Great Western:Com-
Party, the South Wales, Yale of Neath, and Worcester, Hereford,
and -Gloucester Companies, by which an Amalgamated Broad
Gauge Scheme for completing the railway communication with the
Mineral Districts of South Wales will be submitted to Parliament
with their united support.
The Acting Committee of the Great Eastern and Western Com-
pany have felt that, amidst the conflicting interests around them, it
was their duty to look rather to the security of their Proprietors than
to the absolute integrity of their original plan ; but having secured
its virtual integrity by obtaining a share in the capital, and a repre-
sentati on at the boards of the two Companies by which parts of
the work will be executed, they feel confidant that their Proprietors
will approve an arrangement by which much useless expense .et'"
be avoided, and the probability cf obtaining the sanction of Parlia-
ment to the general plan Materially increased, whilst a continuous
interest in the line from Neath to Worcester Is preserved.
They have only to add that, as regards money, they are fully pre-
pared to meet Parliament, and that they have received the most
confident assurances from their engineer and their solicitors that
nothing can interfere with the deposit of their plans, sections, and
books of reference, within the time prescribed by the standing
orders. • By order,

ibis railway will connect the east and west coasts, and form a 1
direct route from the ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood-on-Wyre, and
Lancaster, to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it
will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonedale, Sedbergb,
and Kirkby Stephen, and thence by the most practicable line to New-
castle. It will ran nearly parallel with the old coach road, which
has hitherto been the principal passenger route from Lancaster to
Newcastle.
It will readily be conceded that great benefits will flow from a
direct railway communication between the coal-fields and alining
districts of Durham and Northumberland, and the important towns
and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, aid Lancaster.
The entire length of the line is rich in mineral productions—coal
' slate, limestone, marble, and other elements of a great local traffic
abound, and cannot fail to make this one of the most remunerative
projects of the day. A considerable saving of distance between the
important towns on the tennis' is effected over any existing or pro-
jectedscheme.
It will be reserved to the Committee of Management to make suck
alterations in the line, or the amount of capital required, or other-
wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the interests c 'Ake
Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate
of four per cent. on the calls from the passing of the Act to the
opening of the line, as well as to limit the liability of the shareholders
to the amount of their subscriptions only.

The first object of this line is to connect the town of Birmingham
Coventry, and Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest route
and to supply an important link of communication between the town
of Spalding and the eastern coast, and the western sad midland
districts.

Derekam,
Commencing at the Spalding station of the Iforwieh
Lynn, and Holbeach Railways, the line Will proceed by Bourn.
Witham, Castle Bytham, South Wythant, and Wyniondhaili, to a
point on the iiyeton and Peterborough lige of railway near Melton-
Mowbray, thus tbrming, by tke Syston and Peterborough and Mid-
land Counties Railway, an almost direct route to Leicester, and
thence to Coventry and Birmingham by the proposed Coventry,
Nuneaton, Leicester, and Birmingham Railway.
The projected line will fbrm the most direct communication be-
tween the eastern and midland districts of the kingdom, and will, by
means of the proposed lines across the county of Leicester, via Bar-
ton-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, Norfolk,
Shropshire, and North Wales, nearer to eack other by many miles
than any other line of railway_

It will form, with other prOjected railways, an almost direct line
across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwich, on the east, to
A.berystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the West.
The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There is ne tunnel-
ling, catting, or embanking of any importance necessary; the line
from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve miles, is very
level, and may be constructed at a small asst.
It will secure the advantages of railway communication to a tract
of country at present destitute of this accenunodation, besides open-
ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want owinftbaetmoean:essoufptprlayntshite.
The central midland districts have felt greatly the Want of direct
dcoefirncraieunnely to theeatiowgireath tiro
pcoartasotf;
Sts ordshire
and Leicestershire.
It will afford a transit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei-
cestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon
supply from the north at high prices : it will also secure the advan-
tages of an. unlimited supply of lime item the Leicestershire works,
to the agricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only
supplied at very high rates; and, in return traffic, the midland dis-
tricts will obtain the advantage of a direct transit lbr the stock and
agricultural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk.
Several proposed lines of railway converge at Spalding, which is
the nearest point on the eastern coast for the midland counties, and
v een;Birmingham, an connected by the River Welland with the German Ocean.
The proposed capital will be sufficient tbr the construction tie income

The chief objects of this Company are to carry Into effect a condi-
tional arrangement entered into with Mons. Hallett() for the parchaPe
of his patent for all Europe, and to sell licenses to nse it.
The promoters confidently believe that the atmasplierle system of
Mons. Hallette is the most perfect and economical that has been in-
vented fur propulsion en railways and canals, and in this opinion
they are supported by that of many eminent men of science and ex-
perienced engineers.
By the arrangement entered into with the inventor, the deposit
will be more than will be required until a contract to use the
patent on a railway has been actually signed, and under any cir-
cumstances it is believed that 41. per share will be ample to carry out
'ldly the objects of this Company, Therisk, therefore, will be small,
whilst the profit by sale of licensel, &c., in the event of the superiority
of the invention being acknowledged, must be immense.
A detailed prospectus, with form of application for Owes, may be
had at the Company's offices, Winchester-house, Old Broad-street;
or of Mr. J. H. Golding, broker, Warnford-court, Tkrogmorton-street,
