This railway will connect the east and west coasts, and form a
direct route from the porta of Liverpool, Fleetwood-oz-Wyre, and
Lancaster, to Neweastle-upon-Tyne. Commencing at Lancaster, it
will proceed up the valley of the Lune, by Kirkby Lonsdale, Sedbergh,
and Kirkby Stephen, and thence by the most practicable line to New-
castle. It will run 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 mining
districts of Durham and Northumberland, and the important towns
and ports of Liverpool, Fleetwood, Newcastle, and Lancaster.
The entire length, of the line is rich in mineral productions—coal,
slate, limestone, marble, and other elements of a great local trattle
abound, and cannot fall to make this one. of the most remunerative
projects of the day. A. considerable saving of distance between the
important tones en the termini is effected ever any existing or pro-
jetted scheme.

It will be reserved to the Committee ef Managenseat to make such
alterations In the line, or the anyarat ef capital required, or other-
wise, as may be deemed most advantageous to the Interests c. :the
Company. Power will be applied for to allow interest at the rate
of four per cent. on the calls from' the passing ef 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.
Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be had of the
Solicitors, and of the following brokers:—

The first object of this lino is to connect the town of Birmingkant
Coventry, and. Leicester, with the eastern coast by the nearest rents
and to supply as important link of conunanication between the town
of Spalding aid the eastern coast, aid the western and midland
districts.

Commencing at the Spalding station of the Xerivieb, Dereitana,
Lynn, and Holbeaek Railways, the Hie will proceed by Boar*,
Witham, Castle Bythara, South Wytham, and Wymondham, to a
point on the ilyston and Peterborough line of railway near Melton-
Mowbray, this forming, by the Syston and Peterboreugh 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 conmannicatien 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 Lines's, Norfelk,
Shropshire, and North. Wales, nearer to each other by many allies
than any other line of railway.
It will form, with ether projected railways, an almost direct line
across the kingdom, from Yarmouth, via Norwieh, on the east, to
Aberystwith, via Newton and Shrewsbury, on the west.
The entire length will net exceed thirty miles. There Is no tunnel-
ling, cutting, or embanking of any importance necessary; the line
from Bourn to Spalding, a distance of about twelve stiles, is Tory
level, and may be constructed at a small emit.

It will seenre the advantages efrallwaTee sarrianicaties to a tract
of country at present destitute of this Accommodation, besides opets.
ing out sources of trade undeveloped for want of tk weans of transit.
The central midland districts have felt greatly the• want of direct
eommunication with the coast; and this line will at *nee supply the
deficiency to the greater part of Staffordshire and Leicestershire.
It will afford a transit for the Staffordshire, Derbyshire, and Lei-
eestershire coal into districts heretofore entirely dependent upon
up/Ay from the north at high prices : it will also secure tke advan-
tages of an unlimited supply of limo from 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 for the stock and
agrieultural produce of Lincolnshire and Norfolk.
the eastern coast for the midland counties, and
coSnenveeecaraltredesptbroyl thein st edlines of railway converge at Spalding, which is
the
Riverconnected by Welland with the German Ocean.
The proposed capital will be sufficient for the construction of the
necessary works and every subsequent expense ; and the income
derivable from the traffic in passengers between Birmingham, Co-
ventry, Leicester, Derby, Melton, Spalding, and Boston, the trans-
port of corn, cattle, and other produce of the great agricultural
districts through which 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,

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 Louden
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-
portance.

- The frequency of the complaints from the manufacturing districts
that the port of London is scarcely available to them, owing to tile
difficulty and expense of transit to and from the railway stations,
has caused the projectors of this undertaking to consider the best
mode of remedying the evil which exists, and the present plants
intended to effect this object, and to afford increased facilities fbr
goods traffic between the interior of the country and the port ipr
London.
The expense of forwarding goods between the Camden-town
station of the London and Birmingham Railway and the shipping In
.the river, now so excessive, may be reduced from 50
on most descriptions of goods, and still afford ample to 70 per sent.
remuneration
this Company ; and as the trains will proceed to the quay oft e
docks, and discharge their lading into the vessels or warehous s
direct, and hi like manner the waggons will be laden from the vessels
or warehouses wititout• intermediate change of conveyance, a lai/e
saving will be effected ; while the risk of damage, breakage, d
pilferage will be prevented.
The vast accumulation of capital in London, and the continual
increase in its imports, render it the most extenapivartie marketated in
in the
world, and these advantages will be most fully participated
manufacturing districts, by affording them a direct communica-
tion with the advantage of being
ttio'en ith the port, which,
able to draw supplies from thence almost at an hour's notice, cannot
hut be productive of great general good, and some a large traffic for
this railway.
.Although at present 5 connexion with the Birmingham Railway
alone has been secured, it is anticipated that the Directors of all the
existing and projected metropolitan railways from the manufactur-
ing and mineral districts may be induced to avail themselves of this
direct mode of communication with the river below the bridge, and
thus largely increase the resources of the Company.
The income from passenger traffic it is probable will be very great,
as, in addition to the daily Ideal traffic between Camden-town, Is-
lington, Holloway, Hackney, and the City, this railway will enable
partiesfrom a distance to proceed direct to the principal place of em-
barkation for foreign steamers, as well as enable persons from the
suburbs, through which the line passes, to proceed at once, and with.
out the delay and expense of passing through London, to the Bruns-
wick Wharf; which is the place of departure for most of the exam.
aion boats and foreign steamers.
The cost of the line will be moderate, from the absence of engl;
nearing difficulties, and no tunnels being necessary throughout its
course. It will avoid all expensive house property, and passing
between Islington and Holloway, skirting Hackney and Victoria-
park, and that reaching the West ludia Docks, from whence a com-
munication with the centre of the City will be had by means of the
Blackwell Railway.
Power will be taken in the Act to allow four per cent. interest

railway.
