In congratulating the Shareholders ou the issue of the late contest
Einar Chears'leS Stevens,
in Parliament, the Committee of Management be to announce that
active measures are be!ng adopted to forward the surveys and plans,
and prepare for the ensuing session. The success of the Oxfbrd and
Rugby Railway has confirmed the Directors in the view they enter-
tained when they first brought to the notice of the public the merits
of a line direct from Birmingham to Oxford, and leaves little min
tO doubt that Parliament will grant this Important continuation, thus
connecting the whole north of the kingdom and Birmingham with
the south-western districts.
It is intended to make the most convenient stations for the various
towns on the line that circumstances will admit, connecting the line
at Birmingham with that of the Grand Junction Company. By this
means an uninterrupted transit will be effected from Birmingham
through Oxford to every part of the South and to London. -
Looking to the very peculiar position of this line, the cheapness
of its construction, and the great traffic that must inevitably flow to
it from its connecting and central situation, the Provisional Directors
have every confidence that the undertaking will be one of more than
Ordinary profit to the proprietors.

The promoters of this Railway, encouraged by the favourable sup-
port which has been given to the project, and in compliance with then
various recommendations they have received, ha7e determined upon
the addition of a branch to Birkenhead, which, although it will
manifestly tend to the advantage of the Shareholders and the public,
will be attended with comparatively little additional outlay. The
project will still retain its chief characteristic of a direct railway,
and by its connexion, near Warrington, with the Grand Junction
Company, is sufficiently comprehensive, without resorting to a com-
plicated system of branch lines, or materially couflicting with the in-
terests of existing companies.
The line will commence at the city of Chester, and proceed by way
of Trafford, Frodsham, and Preston Brook, to Warrington, thence
by Lymm and Stretford direct to Manchester. From a point on the
main line, near Frodsham, a branch will be taken to join the Chester
and Birkenhead Railway, so as to unite Manchester in the most
direct manner possible, with the docks now being formed at Bir-
kenhead.
As Manchester, from its geographical position, Is the centre of rail-
way communication between Scotland and the most populous dis-
tricts of England, so Chester, from a like cause, is the great centre of
railway communication between the capitals of Ireland and of Eng-
land. To connect these two points by a direct and independent line
of railway must, therefore, be of the utmost importance, not only in
a local point of view, but to the whole commercial intercourse of the

ham.

country.
This line will be the most direct route, by Holyhead, to Ireland,
and Will be, in all respects, by far the preferable channel of inter-
eourseind transit between Ireland and the great manufacturing dis-
tricts of England. By the railways connecting Chester with Wrex.
ham, Oswestry, Shrewsbury, Hereford, Gloucester, and South Wales,
this will be the nearest route from Manchester to the south-western
parts of England, and to the mineral districts of Monmouth and
Glamorgatishire. The communication with Bristol, Gloucester, and
Exeter will be speedy and direct. On reference to the map, it will
be seen that a very considerable distance will be saved by this line,
as compared with the present circuitous routes by Crewe and by
Birkenhead; the former being 52 miles, and the latter 46 miles,
while the proposed line is only 34 miles, saving in the one case 18
miles, and in the other 12 miles, besides the serious inconvenience, loss
of time, and expense of passing through Liverpool, and crossing the
water at that place.
It is confidently expected that this line will be the precursor of
another scheme, of no ordinary importance—namely, to render
Chester an efficient port for large vessels.
This subject was entertained by Sir John Rennie in 1835, and sub-
sequently, in the same year, by the late Mr. Chapman, who wrote an
able report upon the capabilities of the river Dee. It was again
investigated, in 1837, by Sir John Rennie and Mr. George Remington,
and the practicability of forming a good navigable channel for vessels
of large burden, together with docks at Chester, was then fully and
clearly established.
The entrance channel would commence at Dawpool. which is easy
of access (and infinitely preferab'e, in point of access and safety, to
the docks at Liverpool or Birkenhead), for vessels of large burden,
during eight hours every tide, both at springs and neaps ; and the
call of the lock would be sufficiently low to admit vessels drawing 20
feet water to enter at all tides.
This railway, therefore, in connexion with the proposed docks,
will render to Chester and Manchester incalculable advantages. To
the former it will restore the proper position natural to so important
a city ; to the latter it will give another outlet, by sea, to the ma-
nufacturing districts, free of the heavy port charges, dues, and
risks to which the produce is now subject. It has not been thought
advisable to combine the two objects in one company at present,
but should it be found requisite, the two may hereafter be amalga-
mated.
Merits' of no ordinary degree, therefore, may fairly be claimed for
this railway, whether taken in connexion with the proposed docks,
or as standing alone, combining as it does all the advantages of any
other lines, with this great addition, that it will be the high road to
the most convenient outport of Manchester, and will be quite inde-
pendent of any associations or influences that might tend to oppose
the growing desire for a moans of direct and independent communi-
cation between Manchester and the port of Chester.
The line has been carefully examined. There are no difficult
earth-works to be encountered ; on the contrary it will be cheap,
and of easy formation. Power is reserved to the Committee to de•
viate from the proposed line in the vicinity of Manchester, should
ulterior arrangements render it expedient.

Since the formation of the Company for making this railway, and
the allotment of the Shares for that part of the line between Chelms-
ford and Bury, the practicability, paramount importance, and Stine-
Tior advantages of its plan save been so unequivocally recognised by
the Board of Trade, and by the Committee of the House of Commons
for the railways of Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk, that the Provisional
Committee have determined to now, at once, adopt the extension of
their line, originally projected, from Bury to join the Norwich and
Brandon line at Thetford; thereby to complete the shortest and best
communication between London and Norwich, in the direction of the
old road, through all the chief central towns of Essex and Suffolk,
and at the same time to open a very direct communication with the
great trunk lines of the north and west.
For these important objects, to be secured by an extension of only
12 miles, to connect Bury St. Edmund's and Thetford, the Provisional
Committee propose to increase the capital 250,0001., by the issue of
10,000 additional shares ; and, for full particulars of the entire plan,
refer to their original prospectus.
The Chelmsford and Bury line not having been projected in time to
bring it before Psrliamentin the present session in a substantive form,
it has been but imperfectly, and merely incidentally, in opposing other
lines, that its merits could be at all brought under the notice of the
Board' of Trade or of the Committee of the House ; but the strong
impression made, notwithstanding, in its favour, is obviously appa-
rent, both in the reports of the one and in the decisions of the other.
The Board of Trade, in stating the considerations upon which it ad-
vise&the rejection of the Norwich Direct line, reported (March 4th,
1845) that " It is necessary to advert to a railway called tile Chelms-
ford and Bury Railway, projected, but not brought before Parliament,
the plan, and section, and traffic tables of which have been submitted
to the Board of Trade. This railway appears to us to accommodate a
more populous district than that intended to be traversed by the
London and Norwich Direct Railway. Its section shows that it
may be done at a moderate cost ;" (while) " there is a strong local
feeling in its fay; ur, evinced by the memorials which have been re-
ceived by the Board of Trade from the inhabitants of Braintree,
Halstead, Sudbury, and other places between Chelmsford and Bury."
The Committee of the House of Commons have since not only
rejected the Norwich Direct and Bury and Cambridge lines, but the
Chairman (Lord Sandon), previous to giving a decision against the
Norwich Direct, took occasion to observe that "the Committee was
decidedly in favour of the Chelmsford and Bury scheme."
To these public testimonials in favour of the Chelmsford and
Bury line, the Provisional Committee have the satisfaction of
aiding, that by a special arrangement with the solicitor of the
Eastern Counties Railway, they are assured of the concurrence and
good offices of that important Company in the formation of their line.
In allotting their original Shares, the Provisional Committee ne-
cessarily rejected numerous applications, of which it may be pre-
sumed that a considerable number were from parties as highly re-
spectable as any of those to whom Shares could then be given; and
in the distribution of the additional Shares a reasonable preference
will be given to original applicants, as well as to original Share-
holders.
Applications for Shares, in the annexed form, may be made to
