The first object of this line is to connect the town a Birminghtuai
Coventry, and Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest route
and to supply an important link ecommunication between the town
of Spalding and the eastern 'oast, and the western and midland
districts.
Commencing at the Spalding stall** of the Norwich, Derehant,
Lynn, and Holbeach Railways, the line will proceed by Bourn,
Witham, Castle Bythana, South Wytham, and Wynteadhana to a
point on the .Syston and Peterborough line of railway near Melten-
Mowbray, thus forming, by the 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 form the most direct eennetteleation 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-
toe-upon-Trent, to Stafford, bring the markets of Lincoln, Norfolk,
Shropshire, and North Wales, nearer to each other by many miles
than any other line of railway_
It will form, with other projected railways, an almost direct line
Moos the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwich, on the emit, to
Aberyatvrith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west.
The entire length will not exceed thirty miles. There le no tunnel-
ling, cutting, oar embanking of any importance Necessary; the line
from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve miles, is very
level, and may- the constructed at a small cost.
It will secure the advantages of railway communication to a tract
of eoentry at present destitute of this accommodation, besides open-
ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of tl•e means of transit.
The central rade:land districts have felt greatly the want of direct
communication with the coast ; and this line will at once supply the
deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire.
It will afford a tramit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and
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 from the Leicestershire works,
to the agricultural districts of Lincoln, which are at present only
n
tsruipcptsliewidlaltovutai the advantage of a direct transit for the stock and at nigh rates; and, in return traffic, the midland dis-
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
connected by Vire River Welland with the German Ocean.
The proposed capital will be sufficient for the construction of the
necessary worts and every subsequent expense ; and the income
derivable from the traffic in passengers between Birmingham,
and other produce of the great agricultural
Co-
ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston,
pd
districts
cot
sf
through
g the trans-
chatwtlehich the line passes to the principal consuming
districts, and of coals, lime, and staple commodities for the inland
districts, will be sufficiently ample to warrant the outlay.
The Parliamentary surveys have been commenced, and are now
in active prom fess, and contracts have been entered into which en-
sure sufficient time for compliance with the standing orders.

This railway will connect the east and west coasts, and fore a
direct mate from the ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood-on-A-pre, aid
Lancaster, to Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it
will proceed up the valley of the Luna, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedberglt,
and Kirkby Stephen, and thence by the most practicable lice to New-
castle: It will run neatly parallel with the old coach road, which
has hitherto keel 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 aid nixing
districts of Durham aid Northumberland, and the important towns
and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, and Lancaster.
The entire length of the lino 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 terraial is effected over any existing or pro- ,
jected scheme.
It will be reserved tithe Committee of Managemeit to mate suck
alterations in the line, or the amount of capital required, or other-
wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the interests . 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.

This line of railway is intended to commence at the Camden-town
station of the London and Birmingham Railway, and to terminate at
the extensive quays and warehouses of the East and West India
Dock Company.
The necessity for this undertaking is sufficiently evidenced by the
numerous schemes projected to effect a similar purpose—namely,
the connexion of the manufacturing districts with the port of London
and the river Thames.
The exports from this country are daily increasing, and the con-
sumption of imported produce has extended and is extending in the
interior beyond all previous estimate ; the facility, therefore, of re-
ceiving and dispatching goods from the port of London into all parts
of the country by direct railway communication, whereby the ex-
pense of cartage may be avoided, is obviously of immense im-

portanee.
The frequency of the complaints from the manufacturing districtsthat the port of London is scarcely available to them, owing
difficulty and expense of transit to and from the railway s tioenss,
has caused the projectors of this undertaking to consider the

the manufacturing districts, by affording them a direct communica-
tion with the port, which, together with the advantage of being
able to draw supplies from thence almost at an hour's notice, cannot
but be productive of great general good, and secure a large traffic for
this railway.
