(ON'S LINE.)
LONDON ANDREMINGT MANCHESTER DIRECT
I DEPENDENT RAILWAY.
At a numerous and most influential Meeting, held at the Red Lion
Inn, in Leek, on Thur,sdy, the 24th day of July instant,
JOHN SQUIRE, Esq., in the Chair,
It was moved by CHARLES HEATON, Esq., seconded by JOSHUA
BROVOH, Esq., and Resolved unanimously—
That this meeting has heard with great satisfaction the explana-
tions given by the Gentlemen deputed by the London Committee of
Remington's London and Manchester Direct Line, and receives with
confidence the assurance given of their intention to carry the scheme
into Parliament.

It was also moved by WlLLtam-Birt.nza, Esq., seconded by 13AAC

HAMMOND, Esq., and Resolved unanimously—
That the intended line will confer greater advantage on the town
of Leek, than any other line which has hitherto been submitted
to consideration.

Junction Railway, and make this railway the best communication,
not only between London and Manchester, but also between London
and Liverpool.
Many influential persons connected with the Potteries have urged
this step as the only one that will enable them to get directly and
speedily to London and Liverpool.
For seven years this large and influential district has been endea-
vouring to get a route to London-; every proposed scheme has been
rendered abortive, either by its internal insignificance or bad ma-
nagement, and become a mere article for speculation without the re-
motest adaptation to the wants of this great industrial population.
Had any one of the many projected schemes succeeded, it would
not bear the comparison for one moment in point of real soundness,
utility, and public benefit to the Potteries of the present undertaking.
The noblemen and gentlemen on the route have for the greater
part expressed their unqualified support of the line, by 'means, of
which, and the advance of railway science, the expense of formation
will be rendered comparatively light.
It is the intention of the promoters, without absolutely binding
themselves, to adopt the atmospheric principle and broad gauge,
should such be approved, or to take any gauge or means that will be
economical in working and give high speed. Any ornamental pro-
perty on the line will, as far as possible, be respected.
The distance, under 177 miles, will be accomplished in about three
and a half hours, and no exertion will be spared to complete the
journey in the shortest possible time.

It was also moved by WILLIAM CRITCHROW, Esq., seconded by
NATHAN DAVENPORT, Rsq., and Resolved unanimously—
That it therefore deserves, and shall receive, all the loeal support
which can be obtained by the influence or exertions of the gentle.
men present.

It was also moved by Jonx Bannon, Esq., seconded by JOSIAh
BRUNT, Esq., and Resolved unanimously—
That the foregoing resolutions be advertised in the London and
Provincial papers.

HENRY HOWARD, R.A., Secretary,

THE STAFFORDSHIRE-- POTTERIES and
LIVERPOOL and MANCHESTER DIRECT RAILWAY.
Provisional Registered.
The object of this' railway is to ly
open a direct communication from
the Staffordshire. Potteries northwards with Liverpool, Manchester,
and the north of England, Scotland, and southward with Bristol,
London, and the south of England. The line will commence at
Stafford, and proceed through the heart of the Potteries, giving
the best and most ample accommodation to Stoke Longton, New-
castle. Stoke Hanley, Burs]em, and the whole of the Pottery district,
whence it will pass betwixt Congleton and Sandbach, through
Knutsford direct to Altrincham, where it will join the South Junction
Railway to Manchester, an Act for which has been obtained. A
branch northwards, from the Potteries to Crewe, will connect the
line with Chester and Birkenhead ; and branches from Knutsford on
the one hand, through Northwich to Preston Brook, and on the other
to the Cheadle station of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway,
will open a communication between the Salt districts and the Pot-
teries, Liverpool, Hull, and the eastern ports of England.
The advantages of this railway will be very great to a large And
most important extent of country, hitherto totally unprovided with
railway communication, and will be more fully detailed in a future
Prospectus, whieh,. with Iklaps and the names of an influential pro-
visional Directory, will be issued with as little delay as possible. The
surveys and estimates are in the course of completion, and no parks
or ornamentals grounds will be interfered with.
Parties interested I, the undertakmo• may communicate with the
solicitors, Mes.rs. J. and T. Roscoe, k'nutsford ; and W. Burdett,
Esq., Manchester.

‘ / extraordinary panorama has excited universal interest and
astonishment, as the most marvellous and stupendous work of art '
ever e*hibited in the world—the bright silver moon,-twinkling stars,
fleecy clouds, rippling waters, &c., render the illusion perfect. The
Museum of Sculpture brilliantly illuminated, Mont Blanc, Caverns,
&c., forming a promenade perfectly unique. Open from 8 till 11.
Admittance to the whole ss. ; children, half-price. Family tickets
for* four persons and upwards, 4s. each, may be had at the principal
music shops.

It was also moved by JAMES Amor, Esq., seconded by Join'
RUSSELL, Esq„ and Resolved unanimously—
Thott the thanks of this Meeting be given to the Chairman for his
conduct in the Chair. By order,
H. W. MATTHEWS, Secretary.

This line will therefore be completely independent of other lines,
making, made, or to be made ; and the delay and inconvenience
Attendant on stoppages, the caprices of rival companies, &c., will be
thus avoided.

It will be the most direct, the speediest, the most economical.
And the promoters feel convinced that a calm consideration of the
matter on its merits will satisfy all that this original line of an able
engineer will be a railway of unequalled public utility, and that, if
it will necessarily be an undertaking of magnitude, it is; at the same
time, one of large promise, and likely to afford very great remunera-
tion to shareholders.
