SOLICITORS.
Mr. Wiliam Barker I New-street, Huddersfield.
Messrs. Brook and Freeman

The object of this undertaking is to form a continuous line of rail-
way front Leeds to Liverpool, by extending the lines already made,
or sanctioned by Parliament, from their respective termini at Hud-
dersfield, in Yorkshire, and Bury, for which extension a line of rail-
way only 25 miles in length Is requisite. The proposed line will com-
mence at the Huddersfield station, between which place and Leeds.
Parliament has already sanctioned the formation of railways, and
from Huddersfield the proposed line will proceed by way of Hillhouse'
Birchencliffe, and Lindley, and thence along the valley between
Stainhuld and Greetmand, through Itark'sland, the Tale ofßipponden,
and by Rochdale to Bury, in Lancashire, where it will join the ter-
minus of the Liverpool and Bury line of railway.

In addition to completing a direct communication from Liverpool
to Leeds, Hull, and Goole, by the shortest practicable route, and by
a much smaller outlay of capital, than by any other proposed line, it
will provide for a large and important manufacturing population,
hitherto without the advantage of railway accommodation, as outlet
to the south by means of the Huddersfield and Sheffield Junction
Railway, and to Manchester and to North and South Lancashire by
tho railways above mentioned, and by the Leeds and Manchester
Railway, by a proposed junction therewith at Rochdale.

. • • •••••• .....•••••••••••1.•
This line, when completed, will, ia addition .t• the advantages
which it presents as a through line, pass through a succession of val-
leys thickly studded with mills and manutacteries, consuming a
large quantity of raw materials and coal, all of which are brought
trop a distance, and transmitting to other districts the produce of
their industry, for which purposes a line of railway has become ab-
solutely necessary, and there can be no doubt that as ample return
will be realised for the outlay of capital required.
The distance between Huddersfield and Rochdale by tke present
line of railway is thirty miles, which by the proposed railway will be
reduced to seventeen miles.

The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the right of enter-
ing into any arrangements with existing railway compaujes that may
appear desirable. And power will be taken by the Act of Parliament
to allow interest to the shareholders at the rate of 41. per cent. per
annum on the amounts paid on their shares from thereapoctive times
of payment to the times of opening the railway.
Applications for shares may be addressed, in the subjoined form, to
any of the undermentioned gharebrokers, viz.—Messrs. Hill, Fawcett
and Hill, Threadneedle-street, London; Mr. David Kinnear, Edin-
burgh ; Messrs. W. Moore and Co., Messrs. J. Gatliff and Co.,

The Commttteea of Direction of these undertakings have great
satisfaction in acquainting the Shareholders, that they have made
as t
arrhaneygemshall have receivedents for the lease hi
the perpetuity of both railways, as soon
sanction of Parliament to the
Sheffield, Ashton-under-Lyne, and Manchester
Railway Company,
at an annual rent of 5 per cent, on the cost of the lines, such rent
to become and remain 5 per cent. as soon as the not profits 1
realise that return ; and the farther profits to be (wally divided
between both parties.
The Directors confidently anticipate the certainty of the success
of both projecti in Parliament, in consequence of the unusually
powerful local support which the undertakings have already ob-
tained, and the great assistance from other influential parties,
which the above arrangement with a company already incorporated
has secured, following out, as it does fully, the suggestions of the
Board of Trade in connexion with the legitimate extensions east-

Th

a lino has been projected for the purpose of forming the west
direct communication between Birmingham and the Midland C•un-
ties, and the important and rising port of Aberystwith and the sea-
coast of Wales.

It is intended to commerce at the junction of the Welch Midland
and Stour Valley Railways (both of which have projected lines to
Birmingham), between Kidderminster and Bewdley, and proceed from
thence through Cleobury 3fortimer to Ludlow, where it will form a
junction with the Worcester and Portdynllaen, and Bridgnorth,
Ludlow, and Wolverhampton Railways. From Ludlow it will follow
the line of the present mail road, along the Valley of the Temo to
Knighton, from which place it is intended to throw off a branch to
the Craven Arms, to run site the Shropshire Mineral Railway, which
has its terminus at that piowa, The line twill proceed from
Knighton to Llanidloes, where it win loin the projected Manchester
and Aberystwith Railway, and proceed ai.ng that line for the re-
mainder of the distance. The use of all projeci.4 lines being thee
sought for, the part to be made will not exceed mixtYmiles • and as
surveyors are already open the line, the plans, &0., will an be ready
to go to Parliament in the ensuing session.
The advantages of the present line over any other projected ran_
way between Birmingham and Aberystwith are :—That it is the
most direct route between the respective tennini; that it passes
through a district at present unprovided with railway accommoda-
tion ; that by it and the Birmingham. Stamford, and Boston lines, a
regular chain of railway communication is opened between St.
George's Channel and the German Ocean; and by the Great
Eastern and Western line a communication is also opened with
Yarmouth, Norwich, and King's Lynn ; that it will open the slate
mines of Cardiganshire, and the limestone of Radnorshire to Shrop-
shire, and the whole of the midland counties ; while, on the ether
hand, by the branch from the Craven Arms, the coals of Shropshire
will be brought into Radnorshire, Montgomeryshire, and Cardigan-
shire, where that article does not exist, at little wore than one-third
of its present cost. From these and other sources of traffic it must
be obvious that a high rate of interest upon the capital embarked
may be depended upon.
The line throughout the whole distance meets with the most influ-
ential local support, so as to ensure its complete success.
There are no engineering difficalties of any magnitude, and no
ornamental property will be invaded. Should the atmospheric pinci-
ple be fully tested and be found to answer, it will be adopted on this
line.

The responsibility of the shareholders will be limited to the amount
of their subscriptions, and poweriwill be taken in the Act to allow in-
terest at four per cent. on the calls. The Committee reserve the
usual power to amalgamate with any other existing Company or
Companies, to limit or vary the line; as to them shall seem most
expedient, in order to carry out the objects of the Company.
Prospectuses, with maps and forms of application for &hares, may
be had from the Secretary, at the Office of the Company, 163, Fen-
church-street; from the Solicitors and Local Agents; and also from
the following Brokers, viz. :.—Messrs. Franchi and Ilenesy, London :
