from the port of London to Gravesend, Southend, Sheerness, Herne
Bay, Margate, and Ramsgate.
4th. The carriage of the mails, merchandise, luggage, and agricul-
tural produce.
Besides these sources of traffic, a direct communication will be
opened between the north-eastern counties, and Henze Bay, Margate,
Ramsgate, and the ports of Ostend, Rotterdam, and the Rhine.
The local advantages, from which a large source of revenue must
also arise, are as follow:-
Ist. The opening to the agriculturists of the districts which this
railway will traverse, of a cheap and direct communication with the
most important markets of the county of Essex.
2d. The carriage of fish to the London market and elsewhere.
3d. The traffic arising from the carriage of coal from the coast to
be distributed on the course of the 1 ne.
4th. The carriage of the celebrated lime of Purfieet for agricultural
and for building purposes, along the course of the line, and through-
out the eastern counties.
Besides the traffic of passengers and merchandise which will be de-
rived from the local population, it is certain that cheap and expedi-
tious travelling to and from Southend will estabish it as a place of
recreation and resort for the population of the metropolis, scarcely
second to Gravesend, and form a source of revenue almost Incalculable.
The estimated traffic, as shown in the annexed table, from the
above sources, shows a clear profit of more than ten per cent. upon
the capital, and the payment of interest at four per cent. upon the
calls between the passing of the Act and the construction of the rail-
way will form one of the clauses of the Bill.

mittee, at the temporary offices of the Company, 5, Laurence Pount-

The Directors have the satisfaction to inform their Shareholders
that arrangements have been concluded with the Norfolk Company
for an extension of the line from Wisbeach, via Downham Market,
to Brandon, thus completing an independent line of communication
from Yarmouth and Norwich to Nottingham and the manufacturing
districts, and securing by the alliance the passing of the traffic over
the entire portion of the Grand Union and Extension Line referred
to. The distance between Nottingham and Yarmouth by the pro-
posed extension will be as short as by the Lynn and Dereham and
Lynn and Ely lines, while the traffic to and from the north, from the
central, west, and south parts of Norfolk, the north of Cambridge.
shire, and the counties of Suffolk and Essex, will be secured for the
united undertaking.
The Extension Line will be made by the two Companies jointly,
and the shares will be apportioned amongst the respective share-
holders of each.
It is intended that the Norfolk and Grand Unioh Companies should
guarantee four per cent dividend, with a division of profits to the
shareholders of the new line.
The direction will consist of an equal number of gentlemen from
the Norfolk and Grand Union boards, and Mr. Robert Stephenson
will co-operate with Mr. Vignoles as engineer of the line.
Further particulars will be shortly advertised.
By order, ALFRED BEESTON, Secretary.

In consequence of the favourable reception of this measure by
many important landowners and others locally interested, a number
of whom have become Members of the Provisional Committee, and
the additional evidence of the great traffic, the Managing Directors
have resolved upon adopting a Double, instead of a Single Line, and
increasing the capital to 500,0001., in 25,000 Shares, of 201. each, and
all applications for Shares received up to the present time will be
treated in the allotment as made upon the present capital, unless
recalled before the 27th instant.

PARLIAMENTAR GENTS.
Messrs. Hugh Inns Cameron and George Bain,lB, Parliament-street.
SECRETARY—Henry Moreing, Esq.
At several large,public meetings held in October last, at Brantford,
Isleworth, and Hounslow, resolutions were unanimously passed in
favour of establishing a railway communication with the metropolis,
and the Gazette notices were actually published; but the difficulty
of obtaining a suitable terminus in London induced the principal
scuento-perofsi frramc. -
This impediment has now been overcome, and by a proposed Junc-
tion with the Central Terminus and the Thames Embankment Rail-
way, parties travelling by this line will be enabled to proceed
directly to the heart of the metropolis ; and by the united Railways,
which will ramify from this point, to almost every part of the country
without interruption.
By the intended Junction, also, with the Great Western Railway,
at er near West Drayton, and by the intersection of the Birmingham
Railway at litnsington, these important lines will be supplied with
direct access to the Central Terminus, and thence to the City, or to
the Southern and Eastern Lines.
The proposed line, which passes through or near the extensive and
populous suburbs of Pimlico, Chelsea, Brampton, Kensington, Ham-
mersmith, Chiswick, and Turnham-green, to the town pf Brentford,
and thence to Isleworth, Hounslow, and West Drayton, has received
the most cordial approbation and promises of support from the great
majority of the inhabitants and other parties locally interested.
This line is singularly free from engineering difficulties; and,
although there is almost a complete continuity of town and village
throughout the whole distance, yet, from the care with which the
line has been laid down, so as to avoid property covered with build-
ings, and to take advantage of open and unoccupied spaces, the
value of the ground to be purchased will not be nearly so great as,
from the nature of the localities, would be inferred. By the adop-
tion of the Atmospheric principle, or some equally eligible made of
working, the annoyances, inseparable from the locomotive system
will be obviated, and the advantage of almost constant trains, so in-
dispensable to this densely-populated district, will be secured.
The population of the various places at which stations are proposed
to be erected on the present line is not less than 200,000, and to give
some idea of the large amount of traffic which may be calculated
upon, it may be stated that the present annual income derived from
the carriage of passengers, by omnibuses alone, amounts to above
10,0001. ; under these circumstances, no doubt can be entertained of
a very ample return for the capital required for this important work.
The preliminary announcements of this undertaking have referred
to it as the London, Brentferd, Hounslow, and Great Western Junc-
tion Company—a title which the Provisional Committee have %pea
further consideration, altered to the present designation, in order to
distinguish it from other schemes similar in name, but differing in
their proposed course.
The surveys of the line are completed, and every arrangement will
be made for applying to Parliament for an Act in the ensuing session,
previously to which the plans will be laid before the Metropolitan
Commissioners of Improvement for their approval.
Applications for shares, in the subjoined form, may be made, ad-
dressed to the Provisional Committee, at the temporary Offices of
the Company, 18, Parliament-street, to the Solicitors and Parlia-
mentary Agents, and to the following agents and sharebrokers :

The Provisional Committee of the North London Junction Rail-

WELSH SOUTH 1
STOW, FOREST OF
JUNCTION EXTENSION RAIL
(Registered
Capital 900,000?., in 45,

To effect this important object, an area of 10 acres of ground (the
southern boundary of which is within 500 yards of the Bank of
England) has been most carefully surveyed and valued, and the re-
port of the architect and engineer is of so favourable a character as to
have induced the Provisional Committee to determine on purchasing
the entire site, and it has, therefore, been resolved by them to:in-
crease the capital of this Company to 1,300,0001.
The Provisional Committee consider it of paramount importance
to secure within the limits of their City terminus, the amplest and
most complete accommodation for the traffic of each of the railway
companies who may co-operate with them, an object which will be
effected by opening the very extensive and valuable space of ground
alluded to, within the centre of the City of London.
In conjunction with this enlarged plan, it is intended to embrace
that of a branch line to the present station of the Eastern Counties
Railway in Shoreditch, which will effect an entire junction between
the eastern and western parts of the metropolis ; and at the same
time afford a direct communication between the whole of the rail-
ways, which reach London to the north of the Thames, and give
full development to each of their schemes by creating for them a
common centre within the heart of the metropolis.
Independently, therefore, of the almost incalculable local traffic
which the position of their City terminus will ensure to this Com-
pany, will be added that of those companies also who will eventually
co-operate with the North London Junction Railway Company, and
the perfection of a project of no ordinary magnitude and importance
will be realised throughout the whole of this short but very valuable
line of railway.

A lithographic sketch now publishing will accurately define the
entire district through which this Company proposes to run this line;
by this means the most casual observer will be enabled to ascertain
that the environs of London, north of the Thames, will be placed in
immediate communication with the City ; while the dense popu-
lation of the City will enjoy a fad •ity of connexion with its suburban
localities, necessarily affording it the greatest accommodation,
With such important local resources, therefore, together with the
vast traffic on which the shareholders of this Company have a right
to rely for profit, a large amount of revenue may be fairly and justly
anticipated, filly commensurate with the outlay of the proposed
capital. That revenue will be derived thus :
The daily passenger traffic on the Great Western amounts to
3,345, one-half of which reaches the City. The London and Bir-
mingham amounts to 4,322 daily, two-thire.s of which reach the
City. The Eastern Counties amounts to 2,400 persons daily, half
of whom pass to the West-end of London. The omnibus traffic daily
is 30,894 passengers, two-thirds of which may be given to the City.
Passengers from the suburban districts reaching the City, now un-
accommodated by any railway, are estimated at 4,000 daily.
From these sources the following products are derived:—

A portion of the shares will be allotted to parties locally interested.
The remainder will be distributed amongst the present shareholders

carry this arrangement into effect, to deposit their scrip certificate
with the Secretary, on or before the lst of October next, in exchange
for which they will obtain a certificate upon which the bankers of
the Company will receive the =mint of the difference payable, and,
upon producing the receipt and signing the new Parliamentary Deeds,
fresh scrip will be delivered to them.
