PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS.
The object proposed by this railway is, as well to supply the wants
of the district through which it passes, as to complete the chain of
railway communication between the eastern and midland tie
and the western district, including the whole of North and South
Wales.

iliTchkieycpoounpultryateedm.braced by this line is of the richest description, and

the manufacturing city
By means of this, and the existing and projected lines of railway,
the whole of the ports in the eastern
and north-eastern counties, in-
cluding Nottingham, Sheffield, Leeds, and the whole, of Yorkshire will be
brought in direct communication with the mineral districts of
Wales, North and South
the salt district of Droitwich, and the
river Severn. of Norwich and towns of Leicester,

a commercial advantages and great facilities which the port of
Southampton offers to the merchant and the manufacturer, clearly
point out a demand for a more direct communication with it from
Manchester and York, and the various manufactories of the north
and of Staffordshire, than is at present afforded, either by the
circuitous route on the eastern side, through London by the Bir-
mingham and the South-Western Railways, or on the western side,
by the Birmingham and Cheltenham Railways. Numerous influen-
tial and monied parties, interested in improving this communication,
have projected a direct line, proceeding from Manchester via Stock-
port, Macclesfield, Leek, Cheadle, Uttoxeter, Tutbury, Burton,
Market Bosworth, and Hinckley, to Rugby, and then using the Rug-
by and Oxford Railway to Didcote (on the Great Western Railway),
to form a railway thence to Southampton by way of Newbury, An-
dover, and Stockbridge.
The distance between Manchester and Rugby by the existing rail-
way route is at present about 116 miles, and by the proposed
line from Macclesfield to Rugby it will be only 92, so
that the projected Railway willlessen the distance by 24 miles, which,
as well in time as charge, will effect a most important improvement
in the traffic both of passengers and goods between those places, and
will afford an accommodation which is imperatively required in regard
to the large population of the intermediate town 119 W without any
convenience from railway conveyance.
It is needless to remark how great must be the advantage Which the
whole manufacturing districts round such an emporium of manufac-
tures as Manchester will derive, (tom having direct access to such a
port as Southampton, which has now. become the chief medium of
transit to all the islands and ports in the Mediterranean, and to India
also, by means of the packets of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam
Navigation Company, as also to the celonies and ports of the Western
Hemisphere by the mail established for that purpose.
As the scheme embraces the important feature of a direct line from
Derby to Rugby, by joining the Great Manchester, Rugby, and
Southampton Railway, near Market Bosworth, thereby saving one-
fifth of the distance, it will be at once apparent that York and the
whole northern district will, by means •f the Northern Midland
Railway to Derby, obtain the same direct communication with
Southampton ; and, in fact, the project will contribute a grand trunk
communication from north to south thrOugh the centre of the king-
dom, and not only will the northern commercial and manufacturing
towns benefit by this great undertaking, but the important coal
and iron districts of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, which the line
intersects, will derive immense advantages from the convenient and
extensive new mart which will be opened for their valuable produc-
tions, whilst Southampton and the intermediatelocalities will greatly
benefit by the ready and cheap manner in which coals and other
necessary productions, not only of the soil, but of northern manu-
factories, will be supplied, whether for consumption or merchandise.
It is proposed that the Southampton terminus shall be a convenient
spot in the vicinity of the new docks, independently of the South-
Western Railway. The lines of the proposed railways have been
carefully surveyed, and levels taken by skilful engineers and sur-
veyors, and in no part present any unusual difficulties. The gradients
will be unusually good, and the general line of country may be re-
garded as offering engineering facilities for the important work pro-
posed.

The promoters of this line submit to the public, as a most import-
ant consideration, the abating of those causes of loss and inconveni-
ence which, along the line of country over which this railway will
pass, are experienced from water carriage being from necessity at
present a principal mode of transit for heavy goods and merchandise,
and which,i n the winter season, is productive of the most evil con-
sequences to those engaged in commerce.
A manifest advantage to the Shareholders will be the extent of traffic
which will be secured and appropriated by the present undertaking,
in lieu of that which hitherto has been engrossed by the more
dilatory course of water carriage.
.As a public advantage to the inhabitants generally of the
above-mentioned districts, the promoters submit that the equa-
lisation in prices of the produce and merchandise which the
opening of this line of railway is calculated to produce is of the high-
est importance, and one of the principal benefits which this and other
similar undertakings are alone capable of producing.
The proposed line will commence at Rugby, the terminus of the
Midland Counties and Trent Valley Railways, and also of the pro-
posed Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railway, and proceed from
thence near to the towns of Leamington, Warwick, and Alcester, and
end at the City of 'Worcester. At Worcester this line will form a
junction with the several Welsh railways, the Shrewsbury, Wor-
cester, and Crewe Rail Way, and the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol-
verhampton Railway.
At Warwick it will unite with the Birmingham and Oxford Junc-
tion Railway, the Warwick and Cheltenham Railway, and the Lon-
don, Warwick, Leamington, and Kidderminster Railway.
nd at Rugby with the London and Birmingham, the Midland
Counties, and the projected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railway.
To the inhabitants of Rugby as well as to those of the Midland,
Eastern, and Northern Counties this line will afford a direct com-
munication with the fashionable towns of Leamington and Chelten-
ham, as well as the whole of the Western Counties.
To the inhabitants of Leamington and Warwick it will give a
direct communication with the City of Worcester and North and
South Wales, now so much needed.
And to the inhabitants of Worcester, in addition to providing the
nearest route to London via Warwick, it will be an outlet to the
Eastern Counties and ports, and afford great facilities for the increase
of the manufactories now carried on in that city.
The whole of the country has during the present month, August,
1845, been most carefully surveyed by the engineers, and they report
it to be free from engineering difficulty, and well adapted for a rail-
way; and the provisional Directors entertain no doubt that the
line will be made under the average rate of expense incident to
similar undertakings, and, from the statistics in their possession,
that the traffic will afford an ample return for the capital invested.
The line will mot interfere with any ornamental property, and the
landowners are favourable to the undertaking.
The Shareholders in the several Railways proposed to be joined or
intersected will have a preference in the allotment of shares in this
andertaking.
No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the Act is
obtained, and power will be applied for allow interest at '4l. per
centum on all calls, from the time of t
their respective payments, and
to limit the liability of the Shareholders to the amount of their sub-
rcriptions.
The Directors reserve power to the
of rallmselves to amalgamate with
any existing or projected line way ; to vary the route ; to
make all desirable extensions; and to increase the capital as may be
advisable or necessary.
Prospectuses, with a Plan, will be published in a few days,
on application to th

and Sligo, terminating at Sligo, by a junction with tha Sligo and Ennis-
killen hallway, and accommodating on its route the important cities and
towns of Limerick, Ennis, Gort, Loughrea, Athenry, Monivea, Tuam,
I3allinrobe, Castlebar, Westport, Foxford, Minna, Kilalla, Swineford,
Streantstown, and Sligo, which town being connected with the north,
east, and south, by the different lines through Enniskillen, London-
derry, Coleraine, Belfast, Armagh, Newry, Dundalk, Drogheda,
Dublin, Wicklow, Wexford, Waterford, Cork, Killarney, Valentia,
Tralee, and Limerick, the establishment of this line will cause Ire-
land to present a completeness of locomotive communication which
no other country in the world enjoys.
The country through which the proposed line travels is most fertile
in mineral and agricultural products ; it embraces many extensive
coal fields, whose advantages it will extend to all parts of Connaught
and Ulster; and intersecting, as it does, so many metropolitan lines
of railway, it will develope those advantages in an equal degree to
the province of Leinster.
The lead, iron, marble, and slate works on its route, will be
rendered available to the most distant parts of the island, and
perhaps not the least advantage, in a national paint of view, will be
the establishment Of an intercourse between the population of the
extreme north and that of the extreme south, as well as placing the
trade of, and communication with, Scotland, within the easy reach
of all towns of any importance in Ireland. Added to tbis the cer-
tainty that on the completion of the projected southern, eastern, and
western lines, the noble natural harbours on the Atlantic shore of
Ireland will become the British depots of American traffic, and most
probably the established packet stations for postal communication
between the two countries, it is impossible to over-rate the value of
this truly national projectiOn,
The counties which this railway traverses abundantly supply the
English markets with cattle, pigs, &c. This line, communicating with
so many ports, will afford the greatest facilities for the shipping of
this portion of trade, some idea of the extent of which may be formed
from the fact of upwards of live hundred fairs being held annually
in its immediate vicinity, among them, the fair of Ballinasloe, ac-
knowledged the greatest for sheep and cattle in the British islands.
It has been Ascertained that the country presents great engineering
facilities for the construction of a railway, and in communications
which have been received from the landowners along the line, the
greatest anxiety is manifested for its completion.
The subscribers will be held liable only to the extent of their first
deposits until an Act of Parliament is obtained, and afterwards only
to the amount of their subscriptions.
Power will be applied for in the Act—and in the meantime is
hereby given to the Committee—to increase the capital, if necessary ;
to alter or abandon any part of the line, to make branch lines, or
enter into arrangements with any other company or companies ; and
also to nominate the first directors of the company.

The Parliamentary contract and subscribers' agreement will be
ready for signature on payment of the deposits.
It will be seen in the plan that the railway intersects many main
lines, and will thus cOntribute to, and receite from them a con-
siderable amount in passenglt and merchandise traffic.
From the eStimates that have been made, a return of at least 10
per cent. must be realised on the capital.
Application for shares to be made to the SOliCitOls in London and

Company, 10, Old Jewry Chambers ; and to the undermentioned

A more direct communication from Manchester and from York,
through Derby and Rugby to Southampton, Is professedly the main
object of the proposed scheme ; but it will be obvious to all who study
the geography of the respective places, not only that the line to
Rugby, both from Manchester and from Derby, forms a more direct
communication between those places and London, by means of the
Birmingham Railway from Rugby, than any other route now in use,
but that it will challenge the skill of the engineer and the ingenuity
of the speculator to devise a better line.
It is no slight advantage in this scheme that the interference it
offers to any of the existing railways is not considerable, whilst the
increased traffic which it is certain to cause on the North Midland
Railway, and the traffic which it is calculated to retain to the Lon-
don and Birmingham Railway, notwithstanding the threatened
rivalry of two distinct Manchester and London direct lines ; as also
the immense traffic both of passengers and goods which it must
necessarily pour along the Rugby and Oxford line, now under the
management of the Great Western Railway Company, appear not
only to neutralize the opposition, but to entitle this project to the
support of each of those formidable bodies.

It appears unnecessary in regard to a line of railway like that pro-
posed to go into those details of passenger and goods traffic, which
may be necessary where the amount is questionable ; but as the main
feature of this scheme is the improvement of communication between,
and near places, the traffic of which is known to be immense, it
would be idle to swell the prospectus with any such particulars. It
is sufficient to state that it will be equal to that of any line in the
kingdom.
