This Line of Railway is projected for the purpose as well of esta-
blishing a communication by railway along the coast of an important
maritime district, as of Affording to the rich grazing and agricultural
divisions of the county of Lincoln a more cheap and ready access to
the London and Yorkshire markets, and of cortglSwretluir"..”
chalk, of intiway 1111 .
The advantages offered to the graziers and cattle traders of that
part of Lincolnshire which supplies both the London and Yorkshire
markets with so large a proportion of fat stock, and to the towns of
Louth, Wainfleet, Alford, and Spilsby, by. providing a more certain
and ready transit for manufactured goods and articles of merchan-
dise, cannot be estimated too highly.

The productive districts around these towns would also fully partici-
pate in the advantages of this communication with the manufacturing
and large consuming towns of Yorkshire, to which nearly the entire
produce of corn and wool from such districts is now transmitted by a
water carriage, so tedious, expensive, and uncertain of delivery, as
materially to depress the price of produce in the markets of these
towns, and to place such produce at great disadvantage as compared
with that of other markets possessing greater facilities of transit.
A very considerable return-traffic in coals from the Yorkshire
coal-fields would be obtained, and this article of absolute necessity,
at present supplied to the population of this part of the country, at an
expense seriously increased by the difficulties of carriage, would be
afforded at a greatly reduced price.
Independently of these local advantages, it is impossible to over-
rate those of a more general, and even national character, connected
with the projected improvements of the port of Great Grimsby, the
locality of which (at the mouth of t!: e Humber) affords facilities su-
perior to any other port with reference to the Baltic and Hamburgh
trades, or to the !nails between London and the Northern Continental
ports.
In the article of fish alone (in the transit of which every hour's
delay is of so much importance), it is calculated that a great pro-
portion of the supply from the Northern Seas would necessarily be
transmitted to the metropolis through this line.
The line has also the important advantage of the cordial approval
and support of the principal landed proprietors through whose estates

FEVER AND INFLUENZA.
DR. NORRIS'S DROPS are a certain remedy
for Fevers, Colds, Infinerwa, and all Diseases that arise from
obstructed perspiration. The Medicine here recommended to the
Practitioner, and the Public, possesses qualities of the most mild and
beneficial nature ; it is composed of articles known to be themost
anti-putrescent, combined with the ingredient known to the profes-
sion, as the only certain anntidote for Fevers of every description.
When the disease is produced either from cold, obstruction, bad air,
swampy and damp situations, or putrid miasma, whether malignant
or epidemic, or by other Causes, this medicine is certain in its opera-
tion and effects, it produces the most gentle and salutary perspira-
tion, and by a specific quality, peculiar to itself, not only expels the
disease, but restores and invigorates the system. These celebrated
Drops have had the unbiassed testimonies to their invariable effects,
of numbers Of the nobility, gentry, and medical men of this king-
dom, and the extensive demand for them from the West Indies and
America, '-:M•oves that in those countries they are held in equal
estimation.

LONDON, SALISBURY, AND YEOVIL
JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY

Provisionally registt red.
NOTICE TO THE • SHAREHOLDERS.

The extensive and influential support which has been given to this
Company, and the cordial feeling in its favour pervading the districts
through which the line is intended to run, have induced the Com-
mittee to accede to a generally expressed wish of the inhabitants on
the proposed line, that they should be prepared, if hereafter found
necessary, to enlarge their original scheme, so as to offer to the
public the advantage of a new and perfectly independent line from
London to Exeter.

With this view the Committee have adoptql measures by which
they will be enabled to commence their line at Staines or Richmond,
should the lines to those places, now before Parliament, receive the
sanction of the Legislature, and from thence to proceed by way of
Bagshot, Basingstoke, and Andover, to Salisbury and Yeovil, instead
of commencing the line at Basingstoke.

With regard to an extension from Yeovil to Exeter, the • Corn-
mittee have no intention of competing with the present Exeter,
Yeovil, and Dorchester Company; but in the event of their failing to
carry out their scheme, this Company will be ready to make the ex-
tension to Exeter.

In reference to the important question of the broad and narrow
gauges, the Committee consider it expedient at present to leave it
entirely open. It is obvious that, if the line were to commence at
Basingstoke; two alternatives wo ,Id present themselves;' first, that
of constructing it on the narrow guage, and, in that case, of adopting
the line of the South-Western Company from London to Basingstoke,
or, secondly, of constructing it on the broad guage, and of traversing
the Great Western main line and its branch from Reading to Basing-
stoke.

The advantage of an entirely independent line appears, however, to
be paramount. Such a line would afford the Government the means
of bringing the South Western and Great Western Companies within
the scope of the Railway Act of last session, as to the power of pur-
chase and revision, and thus protect the public from the effects of
powerful monopoly. The Board of Trade's report on the London„
Worcester, and Wolverhampton, and Birmingham and Shrewsbury
districts, attaches much weight to all reasonable guarantees against
monopoly which may be offered by existing companies. In that do-
cument it is stated that the London and Birmingham Railway Com-
pany, on condition of obtaining their Rugby line, have offered to allow
the following clauses to be inserted In their Act, viz.:-
1. The whole of the railways under their control, including the
existing London and Birmingham Railway, to become subject to the
options of revision and purchase contained in the Act of last year ;
the option of revision, however, at ten per cent., to accrue at an
earlier period than that of twenty years, specified in the Act.

.
2. A revised tariff to be framed for the whole of the said railways,
including the London and Birmingham Railway, upon the principle
of flxing maximum rates for passengers and goods lower than those
at present-charged, and at as law a level as those charged upon any
of the principal northern railways.
3. One article of such tariff to be, that coals and iron are to be
carried at rates not exceeding Id. per ten per mile, including toll and
locomotive power.
4. All differences with other railway companies, by whip!' the
public safety or convenience are affected, to be referred to the Board
of Trade, or other competent authority for that purpose established
by Parliament.
5. The London and Birmingham Company to pledge the whole
revenue of their existing line for the completion of the proposed un-
dertaking within a reasonable time.
The Committee look forward with confidence to the adoption of

their scheme, more especially as the Board of Trade has stated in
their report on the Hampshire, Wilts, and Dorset district, that there
is nothing in the present settlement between the Great Western and
the South-Western Companies to prevent such a line As that now
proposed from being brought forward, either by the South-Western
Company or by other parties.
The Committee have therefore determined to apply to Parliament
for power to commence their line at Staines or Richmond, thereby
securing a most advantageous metropolitan terminus at the Hun-
gerford station.
On the final adoption of the extended scheme, the capital will be
proportionably increased, and in the allotment of the additional
shares a preference given to approved holders of the existing scrip.

The proposed line is intended to commence at a point on the Great
North of England Railway, near Northallerton, taking part of the
branch line to Richmond, now before Parliament, and diverging horn
it a short distance cast of its terminus, thence following the south
side of the Tees Valley, up the Greta, over the line of the ancient
Roman way to Brought, forward within a short distance of Kirkby
Stephen, through the rich valley of the Eden, by way of Appleby,
and to join the Lancaster and Carlisle Railway near to Clifton, south
of Ponrith. Diverting from this line, southward of Stainrnore, a
branch will proceed through Ravenstonedale to join the Lancaster
and Carlisle Railway between Orton and Borrow Bridge. The direc-
tion of the proposed line is north-west, following the mail-coach
route from York to Carlisle, and involving the least sacrifice of
distance in connecting together the two great trunk lines of rail-
way, the eastern and western sides of the island.
The distance from Northallerton to Penrith will be sixty-one miles;
of this fifty-five miles will be new railway, which, with the branch
to:Orton, seventeen additional miles, will form a total distance of
seventy-two miles.
The capital will be 1,500,0001., in 30,000 shares of fifty pounds
each. One-third-500,0001.—0f which is placed at the disposal of the
Lancaster and Carlisle Board, to be appropriated amongst the parties
interested in that Company. The revenue will be derived from pas-
sengers travelling from all the eastern districts of the island south of
Darlington to Scotland, and from the counties of Durham and Nor-
a andfr o thefrom passengers w

incense will accrue from the extensive mineral resources of the
country. A better access will be made to the Lead Mines of Mid.
dleton-in-Teesdale, and to those in Westmorland. The line will
run near a large district of iron-stone, and become the channel for
the coal of Durham to pass into East Cumberland, Westmorland,
the north-west of Yorkshire, and Lancashire north of the Wyre. It
will form a junction between the Baltic ports of the Wear and the
Tees and the western ports of Lancaster, Fleetwood, and Liverpool.
To increase the traffic to these large importing harbours, new docks
are now milking at Hartlepool, and the Tees river has been declared
a " free port" to all vessels.
There are no canals in the district, and no direct competing rail-
ways. The local traffic is now conveyed by carts, while the through
traffic is conveyed front Manchester to Newcastle by York on the
one hand, or by Carlisle on the other. Stainmore is the route far the
agricultural produce of Cumberland passing into the colliery and
mining districts of Durham.
The general traffic has been estimated to yield an adequate return
for the proposed capital.
For the purpose of securing the coal trade a Branch will be made
from West Auckland to the line between Greta Bridge and Bowes.
This Branch will connect Barnard Castle with the Coal District as
well as give to that town a road to the south-west and to the 1. orth.
At West Auckland the Durham coal-field is already open in every
direction by railways already formed.
The usual clause will be inserted in the Act, for limiting the liability
of Shareholders to the amount of their respective Shares.

REGISTERED PROVISIONALLY.
NORTH DERBYSHIRE UN lON
RAILWAYS.
Notice is hereby given, a COMP
ANY is FORMING, and that
application will be made In the Ensuing Session of Parliament for
Acts authorising the CONSTRUCTION of TWO LINES of RAIL-
WAY, one of them commencing at Buxton, passing by Ashford and
Bakewell, and t(rminating by a Junction with the proposed Man•
cheater, Sheffield, and Midland Junction Railway, at or near Wood-
seats ; and the other commencing at Matlock, and joining the pro-
posed Manchester, She field, and Midland Junction Railway, at or
near Chesterfield.

Independently of the large local passenger traffic which these lines
will secure, a considerable revenue will be derived from the con-
veyance of agricnitural produce, and also of marble, limestone, and
lead ore, in which the district abounds ; and they will also furnish
the most direct and economical route for the conveyance of the coals
from the Dronfleld, Unstone, Newbold, and Chesterfield coal-fieldi to
the towns and villages of North Derbyshire.
The promoters have ascertained that the traffic which must neces-
sarily pass over these Lines will be highly remunerative, and in the
formation of them due regard will be paid to the interests of the

as hard as alabaster, purer than wax, glossy as glass, and cheap as
common tallow candles, is their true character. "Their equal is un-
