This company is formed for the purpose of establishing direct
railway communication between the important ports of Hull,
Great Grimsby, and Southampton.

It is intended to effect this desirable object by the construction
of a line of railway, commencing at Lincoln, passing Grantham,
Oakham, Uppingham, near to Rockingham and Rothwell, and
joining the South Midland Railway between Market Harborough
and Northampton ; thus forming, in connexion with projected
lines of railway from Hull and Grimsby to Lincoln, and from
Northampton to Southampton the connecting link in one unifier.
rupted chain of railway communication from Hull and Grimsby
to Southampton, Gosport, and Poole, and the whole of the south-
western coast of England.

It will also form the most direct route from hull, Great
Grimsby, and the whole of Lincolnshire, Rutlandshire, Northam',
tonshire, and pa!t of Leicestershire, to Oxford, Banbury, Chel-
tenham, Gloucester, Bristol, Exeter, and the South and West of
England.

An inspection of the map will at once show the importance of
this undertaking, whether considered in a local or national point of
view, forming as it will an intimate connexion between London
and the South generally, with the fertile districts of Lincolnshire
and the adjacent counties, at present without railway accommo.
dation; while its •alue to the South Midland, the Northampton,
Banbury, and Cheltenham, the London and Birmingham Railway
Companies, and the projected lines south of Northampton (to which
it will form a most profitable adjunct) must be obvious.
This line will also form junctions at Lincoln with the projected
line from London to York, also with the Leicester, Louth, and
Grimsby, the Nottingham and Lincoln, and the other proposed
lines running to Lincoln; at Grantham with the Nottingham,
Vale of Belvoir and Grantham, and the Grand Union; at Oakham
with the Syston and Peterborough ; also with the Boston, Stamford,
and Birmingham and London, and Manchester Direct.

One great and important feature in this railway is, that it does
not run parallel with, or in opposition to, any existing line of
railway. _ _

The ground has been surveyed, and found to be practicable, pre-
senting for the most port no engineering difficulties.
Satisfactory communications for mutual co.operation have been
opened with the several companies, whose interests will be affected
by the proposed line. In the meantime the Committee of Manage-
ment reserve power to amalgamate with any other company, or
deviate from the proposed line, or make such extensions and
branches as they may hereafter deem advisable.
The Subscribers will be held liable only to the amount of their
subscriptions, and power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to
allow interest at the rate of 4 per cent. per annum on all calls from
the passing of the Act.
In consequence of a great portion of the Shares having been
already applied for, the period for application must necessarily be
very limited.
Applications for Shares may be made in the annexed form to the
following Sharebrokers -- • London Mr. W. West, Capel.court,

The objrct of this Company is to establish a direct line of rail-
way for passengers, goods, and commercial, mining, and agricul.
tural produce between the harbour of Watchet on the Bristol
Channel, and the harbour of Bridport on the English Channel, and
provide means of inland transit for a large proportion of the pro-
duce at present necessarily sent by the dangerous and uncertain
passage round the Land's End, and at the same time afford to the
intermediate rich and populous districts ready and convenient rail-
way communication.

The direct line will be 48 miles in length, and will proceed from
Watchet tr. Taunton, and thence by Hatch Beauchamp, and by
Ilminster to Chard, and by Creukcr••e and Beaminster to Bridport
harbour. A branch will proceed out of the line, about mid-way
between Watchet and Taunton, directly to Wiveliscombe. All
these towns and their neighbourhoods are populous and opulent,
and many of them very much so, and the localities are remarkable
for their richness, fertility, beauty, and numerous resident gentry.
At Wiveli.scranbe this line will avail itself of the North Devon
Railway to Taunton, and also westwaa; at Taunton It will
enter the station of the Bristol and Exeter Railway, and thence
proceed to Mangerton, four miles short of Bridport, where it will
unite with the Wilts, Somerset, and Weymouth, one of the
Great Western lines of Railway, and thence proceed on that line
to Bridport Harbour.
It will also cross the proposed line from Yeovil to Exeter
about two miles west of Crewkerne.
The junction of the two Channels was long since deemed an im-
portant object. To effect it, surveys were successively made for e
ship canal by the late Mr. Bennie, Mr. Telford, and other scientific
men, v, ho concurred in the importance of such a work in a na.
Bona! point of view ; the design was matured, and in 1824 art Act
of Parliament was passed; and it stands recorded as the opinions of
Mr. Telford and Captain Nichols, that the canal would afibrd a
remuneration to the subscribers of 16 3i per cent, on a capital of
1,712,844/.

Staffordshire Potteries Railway-office, 1, Hope-street,
Piccadilly, Diancheiter, Oct. 18, 1845, and am this line near Watchet.
_

No railway, either made, or being made, or projected, will serve
the purposes which this important and favoured line will serve.
The country it will pass through possesses a population exceed-
ing 150,000. It leads to marine watering places of much resort—
Weymouth, Lyme, and Seaton on the English Channel shore, and
Linton, Mir:Owed, and Blue Anchor on the shore of the Bristol
Channel. Taunton, which may now be considered the county
town of Soinersetshire, has always been the market and trading
town of the country north.west of it, including Watchet and its
surrounding district ; the route to which, from London and the
north, Is through Taunton.
A well remunerating passenger traffic may hence be expected.

The country also contains between 80 and 100 mills and fac-
tories, many of which are worked by steam in aid of water-power,
and many more of the proprietors will avail themselves of steam-
power when coals shall be procurable at a reduced rate by this
railway. The millers are most desirous of having the markets of
South Wales opened to them. Several influential coal proprietors
of South Wales are members of the Provisional Committee.

In consequence of the great number of applications for kharos
in this Company which are daily received from all parts cf the
country, the Provisional Directors feel it necessary to call the atten-
tion of the Public to the following Clause in the Prospectus, to the
tenns of which they will, in allotting the shares, be compelled most
strictly to adhere :
" As, under arrangements entered into with the Lynn and Ely,
Ely and Huntingdon, and Lynn and Dereham Railway Companies,
a large proportion of the capital has been appropriated to the holders
of shares in those Companies, a very limited number of shares only

The country also possesses several extensive lime quarries, for
manure; the lime is burnt with culm brought from Wales ;
the conveyance both of the culm and lime is at present attended
with much expense to the agriculturist. The line will also be of
high importance to this agricultural district by opening to it the
markets of Taunton, Tiverton, South Alolton, Barnstaple, in the
north of Devon, Exeter, and London. The towns of Taunton,
ihninster, Chard, Crewkerne, Beaminster, Broadwindsor, Brid-
port, Axminster, Charmouth, and Lyme Regis, will be connected
by the line, and derive from it supplies of coals, culm, timber, dry
goods, and other articles of import. The line will afford to those
towns and their populous neighbourhoods, increased facilities of
communication with other lines of railroad.

The usual prevalence of westerly winds during the winter months
is so great as to render the passage round the Land's-end very un-
certain. The facilities offered by the proposed railway will obviate
such uncertainty, save many hundred miles of dangerous sea pas-
sage, and more than compensate for the charges attending reship-
ment at Bridport from Watchet, particularly in the article .of
Welsh coals, new in great demand in and about London for steam.
engines, steam-boats, and other purposes.
The harbour of Bridport admits vessels at spring.tides of 350
tons burthen; it receives large supplies of coals, culm, flax, hemp,
Baltic and American timber, iron, slate, tallow, staves, and nu.
merous other articles ; which, in the aggregate, last year, amounted
to nearly 40,000 tons, a large portion of which consisted of flax
and hemp, for the numerous manufactories of yarns, sailcloth,
sacks, nets, lines, twines, and linen goods, which when wrought
would pass along the line to the two ports, for shipment, or to
other railways.
The harbour of Watchet, at spring-tides, admits vessels of 200
tons burthen, and carries on an extensive and important daily trade
with the ports of Tenby, Llanally, Swansea, Neath, Cardiff, New-
port, and Merthyr Tydvil, in coals, culm, corn, flour, and other
provisions, cattle, sheep, salt, timber, slates, iron, and other articles
of merchandise ; employing twelve vessels belonging to the harbour
regularly and exclusively; one trading with Liverpool. It has
also a considerable corn, malt, flour, and goods trade with Bristol,
and employs therein several vessels regularly

Both the harbours are capable of being much improved, and
belong to proprietors able and willing to improve them to meet the
increased wants of the community.

The port of Watchet, as it is, has the largest and most important
trade on the English side of the Bristol Channel. This Railway
will increase that trade fourfold, and therewith its own prosperity.
The shore contiguous to Watchet exclusively abounds with lime
of the most celebrated description, both for water-works and ex-
terior building, being the same as the universally known and cele-
brated Aberthaw lime, which also is on the directly opposite coast;
and at and around Watchct are extensive corn and flour mills,
paper mills, and clothing mills.
The foregoing facts show that the line must have a very exten-
sive goods traffic.
It is not intended to put forward Watchet as a packet station
either for Ireland or South Wales; nor does this measure require
such aid. No portion of the coast of the Bristol Channel, east of
Ilfracombe, can have the slightest pretension to be, or be
made, a packet station. In the first place, it is obvious that
the railway in actual progress from the Government Dock.yard
at Pembroke (or llobbe's Point, 100 miles further down the Eris.
tol Channel) will take all the packet trade from the south of Ireland :
Liverpool takes Dublin;whilst Ilfracombe (50miles west of Watchet),
and Swansea (directly opposite to Ilfracombe), maintain a regular
steam-packet passenger end goods traffic; and in the second place,
all the harbours on the English side east of Ilfracombe are dry, and
for a great length, at low water, the shores being very flat, and to
construct a harbour on them, to admit large class steamers and to
land passengers at all times of the tide, would, if not impracticable,
cost an enormous sum. To hold out expectations that either of
them might be such packet station, would for the above reasons be
delusive.

The extended North Devon line of railways will serve the port
of Ilfracombe and its packets.
A survey has been made by the engineers, who have reported
that the line is easy of construction, and will not interfere with any
park.

It affords great satisfaction to the promoters to be enabled to
announce that the directors of the Bristol and Exeter Railway
Company have promised to give this measure their favourable con-
sideration, and the promoters entertain a sanguine expectation that
it will receive their support.

The neighbouring landowners and gentry are favourahle to the
measure, and all the merchants and traders both at Watchet and
Bridport, as well as the principal coal proprietors in South Wales,
and all persons throughout the line, entertain a high opinion of its
merits, and earnestly desire it.
Many extensive landowners on the line, whose names do not
appear on the Provisional Committee, have yet expressed them.

PARLIAZIENTARY AGENT—Thomas Baker, Esq. Spring-gardens
The attention of the public and of the civic autkoriCes of this
great metropolis, through the powerful medium of the public press,
has upon several occasions been excited by the detail of numerous
and almost daily occurring accidents on the river Thames. With a
view to abate, if not altogether remove an evil of enormously grow-
ing magnitude, the dangerous navigation of the river, the present
project is put before the public.
Although the chief cause of this danger is acknowledged to be the
blocking up the navigation, by the numberless tiers of colliers and
their attendant barges, and their ingress and egress to and from their
station, still no efficient remedy has been hitherto proposed. '
It is admitted by all that the only mode by which this great and
dangerous nuisance can be removed is by a dock, at a considerable
distance from the Pool, and a suitable and most convenient site has
beon selected, in every way adapted for the object contemplated ;
and which not only combines facilities, in no ordinary degree, for
coal and coasting vessels to enter at all times of the tide, at a dis-
tance far removed from the Pool (about three miles below NVoolwiclo,
but also at a locality, by the aid of a railway, fromwhich the various
produce may be transmitted within half an hour into the very heart
of the City.
It is proposed to construct a dock at a point in that part of the
river, four and half miles below Blackwall, called Gallion's Reach,
and thencs to carry a railway four miles long, through East Ham,
Plaistow, and West Ham, to the Eastern Counties Railway at Strat-
ford, where it will join the Northern and Eastern Railway, and form
a central point from which goods may be transmitted to the various
parts of the countt y which those railways traverse, and to London.
The spot at which the dock and works will be constructed has been
selected as being a part of the river where at the lowest state of the
tide there will always be a sufficiency of water to permit the ingress
and egress of vessels, as a reference to the Admiralty charts will de-
monstrate ; by this arrangement they will be enabled to discharge
their cargoes, leave dock, and take in ballast (which is in the imme-
diate vicinity where the Trinity House dredge is generally working),
almost before they conld have even reached their ordinary station in
the Pool, as at present. The great saving in time thus effected, it
is manifest, will be of the utmost consequence and advantage to the
owners of these vessels ; and by materially decreasing the cost,
would enable them to supply the consumer at a much less rate than
at present.

It is intended also to erect a sea-wall and wharf, 1,500 feet long,
for the accommodation of passengers by steam-packets and other
vessels passing to and fro. The economy of time thus effected will
be very considerable ; for by the aid of this railway (bringing Shore-
ditch and the intended terminus at Finsbury within twenty minutes)
nearly three-quarters of an hour ,will be saved over every other
mode of conveyance.
It is moreover to be remarked that from this spot Gravesend can
be reached in forty minutes, consequently the time consumed, from
Finsbury to Gravesend by this route, would be shout one hour.
As the Eastern Counties Railway will be united to all the other
great trunk lines, by means of the northern and southern connecting
line just projected, it may be justly said, that the Steam-Packet
Wharf, now proposed, will be the only metropolitan Continental ter-
minus.

By the construction of this railway, with its very important ad-
junct, a coal and coasting dock, a most valuable addition will be
made to the Eastern Counties revenue by calling into existence a
traffic which, under any other circumstances, could not be created ;
thereby developing to the proprietors of that extensive line, that its
capabilities have hitherto lain dormant, and only required the neccs-
tary extension to the Thames with a dock to secure to it a national
depot for produce for all parts of the globe to i.e diseeminated
through the numerous and increasing extensions of the parent line.
The carriar', of coal alone would add no insignificant sum to the
hitherto declared dividends of the Eastern Counties, when it is con-
sidered that more than two and a half millions of tons are annually
imported into the port of London, which amount would be greatly
increased by means of the facility of railway transmission thus
afforded.

I request you will allot to me shares in this under-
taking, and I agree to take the same or such of them as may be
allotted to me upon the terms stated in the prospectus, and to pay
the deposit there,m, and sign the Parliamentary Contract and
Subscribers' Agreement when required.

It may be proper to remark" that it would be difficult to find, so
near the metropolis, a four miles course in every sense so eligible
for a railway, so free from obstruction, and so cheap of construction,
that the coal traffic of itself would yield an ample return for the
outlay.

This railway will pass from the city of .Exeter, through the
rich valley of the Exe, via Silverton and Bickleigh, direct to
Tiverton, one of the chief towns of this important district, and
formerly the principal market and manufacturing town of the west
of England. It will administer largely to the prosperity of this
rich and productive country, and will pass from Tiverton, by Baum-
ton, Duiverton, and Minster, to the port of Minehead in the Bristol
Channel, opposite Landaff, Swansea, and Cardiff, from whence the
produce of the rich mines and quarries of Merthyr Tydvil, Ponty-
pool, and Newport, in Wales, can be transferred by the shortest
route to the English markets. From Mineheed it will pass by

Porlock and Contelllaricil to the much-frequented wateriiig-place
of Ilfracombe, where it unites with the Barnstaple and Ilfracombe
Railway. At Minchead it will also join the tridg,ewater and Nine-
