with the exact direction of the projected line, highly favourable gra-
dients are obtained for a considerable pait of the length; and every
other section of the country, upon a preliminary survey, has been
reported as more than commonly practicable. While the return for
capital cannot be questioned, and the necessities of the district de-
mand accommodation, the expenditure must necessarily fall below
the usual amount for works of equal magnitude.
To identify this project with that of the Erewash Valley, although
not included under, or belonging to the same executive, it is pro-
posed to allow subscribers in that Company shares in the Erewash
Extension : the number to be regulated by the interest retained in
the elder project.
The deeds will provide that no call shall be made on the Share-
holders beyond the deposit now paid, until the Act of Parliament is
obtained ; and power will be taken in the Act to allow 4 per cent. in-
terest upon all calls.
Prospectuses, maps, and forms, may be had at the Offices of Hull

Hall, Esq., solicitor, Alfreton ; George Henry Richardson Cox, Esq.,

This line will commence at a point on the Midland Counties Rail-
way, near Kegworth, and will proceed in a direct line to Nuneaton,
and thus, by means of other projected lines, a direct communication
will be formed between the important towns of Nottingham, Newark,
and Lincoln on the one side, and Birmingham, Coventry, and War-
wick on the other ; and as there is no doubt the proposed rail-
way between Cheltenham and Warwick will be formed, a direct
communication will thus be effected between the Severn at Glouces-
ter, and the Humber at Great Grimsby. At the same time, a rich
mineral and agricultural district will be supplied with railway ad-
vantages.
The line will pass through a very productive district, intersecting
the Leicestershire coal-fields and limeworks, and will afford commu-
nication, north and south, to the Derbyshire potteries. With such
an assured immediate and prospective amount of traffic, the profits
on the small capital required cannot fall to be highly remunerative.
In consequence of the lines in the course of formation, exclusive of
those projected to Great Grimsby, that port will be rendered of the
first importance, and it must be obvious that traffic from the district
south-west of Warwick will be very great.
. - .

The distance saved by the proposed line between Leamington,
Warwick, Coventry, and Nottingham, will be about twenty miles ;
and between Birmingham and Nottingham about six miles. As
it is the shortest :route from Birmingham to Nottingham and
Lincoln, it must secure the traffic from Birmingham to Notting-
ham, Newark, Lincoln, and the port of Great Grimsby ; and by com-
municating with the Erewash Valley Railway at Long Eaton. it must
command the traffic from Coventry, Warwick, and the district south
of those towns to Sheffield. Leeds, York, and the north of England
generally. It will also afford a direct communication between Not-
tingham and the district bet,, een Warwick and Worcester, by means
of the projected Worcester, Warwick, and Rugby, and the Warwick
and Worcester 'Railways.
The entire length of the line will be about twenty-four miles. The
Parliamentary surveys are now in active progress, and contracts have
been entered into with eminent surveyors, which will insure ample
time for a compliance with the standing orders. The engineer also
reports the country to be free from all engineering difficulties, and to
present unusual facilities for the tbnnation of the line.
The Committee having determined upon making provision for com-
pleting the whole line to Coventry, in case circumstances should ren-
der such a course expedient, have resolved to raise the capital to
550,0001., in 27,500 shares of 201. each. Any parties who may be
desirous of withdrawing their applications in consequence of the
above alterations in the project, must signify the same forthwith,
otherwise the applicants for shares will be considered as acquiescing
therein.

Powers far all,wance of interest at four per cont. on the paid-up
capital will be taken, and the liability of shareholders limited to the
amount of their subscriptions.

the former the whole distance, and the latter at any event to Gran-
tham, a distance of about twenty-five miles ; and should the Loudon
and York Company not succeed, such traffic will proceed on to Ket-
tering or Northampton.
The entice district between Grantham and Kettering, a distance of
more than forty miles, anti including the market towns of Oakham
and UPilingham, is without railway or water-carriage accommoda-
tion, and the whole of its traffic therefore will travel over this line of
railway, which will be in the direct course not only to the west but
also to London.
At Kettering this line will unite with that one of the now com-
peting schemes passing that town from Manchester and Leicester to
London which shall be successful before Parliament.

The country is free from engineering difficulties, with one or two
exceptions only, and those are snore than counterbalanced by the very
favourable gradients of by far the greater portion of the line ; indeed,
for many miles the line will run upon a water level.
The line will not interfere with any ornamental property.
The landowners on the line are favourable to the undertaking.
The promoters reserve power to alter and vary the route, and ex-
tend the proposed line of railway, and to increase the amount of
capital, as may be necessary or advisable.

LOCAL AGENT7William Hirst, Esq., Boroughbridge.

This railway is intended to commence at or near to the Alne sta-
tion on the Great North of England Railway, to proceed by way of
Aldborough, Boroughbridge, and Dishforth, and to terminate at the
Leeds and Thirsk Railway near to Wath, at a junction with, and so
as to form an eastern continuation of, the Yorkshire and Glasgow
Union Railway. _ _

The length of the line will be about thirteen miles, and, in forming
it, three objecrs are in view : _

, .
ht. To accommodate Boroughtorldge, and a great extent of highly
fertile and productive country hitherto entirely devoid of railway
communication.

2d. To form a connecting link between the Great North of Eng-
land Railway, and the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union Railway, and
thereby connect with this project part of the trunk lines from Hull,
Selby, York, Beverley, Marketweighton, Poeklington, Scarborough,
Whitby, Pickering, Melton, &c., and the eageni districts to Carlisle,
and the west of Scotland by the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union, which
passes through Bedale, Leyburn, Askrigg, Hawes, Kirkby, Stephen
Appleby, and forming a junction with the Lancaster and Carlisle
Railway near Penrith.
3d. To supply the district in question with coal from the pits in the
neighbourhood of Leeds, and from those of Durham by means of the
Leeds and Thirsk Railway and its extension. To afford accommoda-
tion to the town of Boroughbridge and its locality by connecting it
with Carlisle, Durham, Hull, Ripon, York, Scarborough, &c., which
this project will do to a much greater extent than would have been
afforded by the Pill Moor branch of last session, from the Great
North of England Railway to Boroughbridge, inasmuch as this line
will give an outlet to both a northern and eastern direction, whilst
that of last session would have afforded merely a northern one.
The country is level, requiring no tunnel, and very little cutting or
embanking, and the line will consequently be of easy construction.
The cost will be comparatively light, and all residential annoyance
or injury to property will be avoided.
The saving of distance by this scheme will, on reference to the
map, be seen to be very considerable, especially with regard to rail-
way communication between the cities of Ripon and York, Wath
being only four miles north-east of Ripon ; and this line, in con-
nexion with the Leeds and Thirsk Railway (whirls runs through that
city), forming a continuous, as well as the shortest and best, line of
railway between Ripon and York.
In the allotment of shares preference will be given to landowners
and others locally interested on the line.
Applications for shares (accompanied by a respectable reference) to
be made to the solicitor or agents in the annexed form:—

This undertaking is projected by influential local interests to supply
the requirements of the above important district; and a reference to
the snap will show that it will also complete the communication be-
tween York, Leeds, and the intermediate towns in the most direct
course with London. The surveys have been made by Sir Johu Mac-
neill and James Thompson, Esq., and the country is found to be fa
•
vourable to the construction of a railway ; and there is, perhaps, no
line of such importance which could be constructed at comparatively
so small an expense as the sum named in the estimate.
The length of the line w3ll be but about thirty-nine miles ; and by
means of this short link, in cannexion with existing projects from
Nottingham, a saving will be effected between Leeds and the metro-
s exceeding twenty-five-miles. -
It will Commence at the projected terminus of the Wakefield, Pon-
tefract, aad Goole Railway, at Pontefract, and from thence proceed
through Doncaster, Tickhlli, and Worksop, to the terminus of the
YOttingluun, Mansfield, and Midland Counties Railway, At Mansfield ;
