SECRETARY—HiIton Thomas Jenkins, Esq.
Thr geographical position of Worcester has caused its adoption as
he pbint where the broad guage trunk lines of the west are to have a
common terminus. From Oxford the Great Western Company have
decided on constructing a line of rail :—another project under the pa-
tronage of the same powerful direction is now before the public,
uniting lorcester with Warwick ; and, that the broad gauge will be
carried fl•om Worcester into Wa:es, and to the Irish packet stations
on that coast, Is now no longer doubtful. This undertaking will com-
plete a series of great avenues of iron-road, whose ramification
from Worcester will render every part of the kingdom directly
accessible from that city. Passing up the Severn Vale, whore
it will disclose a succession of picturesque scenes, it reaches
Stourport, and proceeding thence through Kidderminster, arrives at
Bewdley. This district is one of the chief seats of our carpet manu-
factures, and in the towns here named, exclusive of the intervening
districts, upwards of 30,010 persons arc located. Leaving Stourbridge
a little to the east, the line is taken to Rridg,enorth, a town enjoying
an active inland trade, and possessing woollen manufactures and iron
works, that gives employment to a population of about 15,000. Pass-
ing through or near to Much Wenlock, liroseley, and ➢fadeley, from
which place there will be a branch to Shrewsbury, the lino ascends
Colebrook Dale, and approaching in its course Wellington and Wem,
enters Whitchurch. From this central place a branch will be formed
to Norwich via Stoke, forming a junction with the Liverpool and
Crewe Railway. The trunk line will continue from Whitchurch, and
passing through or near Malpas, have its northern terminus in the
city of Chester.

In estimating the probable amount of revenue which tho Worces-
ter and Chester Railway may be expected to yield, many sources of
profit present themselves, such are the dense population located along
the length of the Severn Vale, and the enriching works of industry
in which they are engaged. Amongst the latter may be mentioned
the China manufactories of Worcester ; the iron, coal, and earthen-
ware works at Broseley and other places ; the agricultural produce
brought to Stotuport market ; the inexhaustible fields of coal and
mines of iron ore in the vicinity of Colebrook Dale, Ironbridge, and
the districts to the east of Shrewsbury generally.
In calculating the cost of construction unusual advantages are also
obvious. The line traverses a district affording levels of several
miles in extent, and with a surface peculiarly favourable. The resi-
dent population, disappointed by the postponement of promised pro-
jects,• have warmly espoused the present, and the labouring' popula-
tion being familiar with mining operations, will be found better
qualified for the execution of railway works here than in many other
localities.

As a link in the railway network of England, or as auxiliary
to existing or projected lines passing in various directions, few
schemes hitherto proposed appear to afford greater inducement
for investment, or a wider range of accommodation for traffic and
travelling. This project constitutes a lengthened link in the chain
that will connect Liverpool with Bristol, the grand trunk of the
West of England ;—its southern terminus, Worcester, is the half-
way station of the London and Port Dynnllaen broad gauge line :
by projected lines a direct communication will be afforded west-
ward to Swansea and Aberystwith, and, eastward, to Warwick and
Northampton, Cambridge, Peterborough, Harwich, Lyna, Lincoln,
ant Hull.

The line has been repeatedly and carefully examined by the Com-
pany's acting engineer, who reports that the rail for many miles may
be laid on the natural level—that the gradients are in every in-
stance favourable—that the geological structure of the districts to
be traversed is equally so, and that the want of such a line ef com-
munication is acknowledged by the interests seated en its proposed
course.

The object of this undertaking is to secure a superior terminus to
the railways which have recently been incorporated, or are projected
to the south of the City.of:Glilsgon,
The Line will commence at a point on the Glasgow, Barrhead, and
Netleton Direct Railway, nearly one mile to the south of the City,
and will terminate at the River Clyde, near the site of the old Wheat
Sheaf Inn, and adjoining to the Church of Gorbals, with Branches
to the Clydesdale Junction and Monkland Direct Railway, or such
point as may be deemed advisable.

The Line Las been carefully surveyed, and the proposed capital is
amply sufficient ; and when it is considered that the terminus will
be at the most suitable point between the stone bridge to be erected
at the foot of Stockwell-street, and the iron bridge to be erected at
the foot of Portland-street, and that it will be convenient to the
Post Office, to the new Arcade, and other ;places of public resort
contemplated with a view to embellish the City and improve the ac-
cess to the Harbour, and that it will concentrate at this important
point the Railways to Pollockshaws, Barrhead, and Nellston—Kil-
marnock. Irvine, Ardrossan, and Ayr—Strathaven, Lesmahagow,
and Carlisle—Rutherglen, Hamilton, Wishaw, and Lanark—not to
speak of the Lines of the Monklands, Lothians, and Edinburgh
itself—there cannot be a doubt that, short though this Line be,
there are few likely to afford a more ample remuneration to the pro-
prietors.

In allocating the Shares, a preference will be given to the Share
and Scrip holders of the Glasgow, Barrhead, and Neilston Direct,
Ciydesdale Junction, Glasgow, Kilmarnock, and Ardrossan, Glasgow,
Strithaven, avid Lesmahagow Direct, and GLlzipow and Monklands

This Line, which, subject to the decision of the Gauge COmmis-
stoners, will be constructed on the Broad Gauge principle, will com-
mence at the Worcester Station of the Great Eastern and Western
Railway, and, proceeding by Redditch and Henley-in-Arden, will
ketch Warwick and Leamington, and end at Rugby, the terminus of
the Midland Counties Railway and of the proposed Rugby and Hunt-
ingdon Junction Railway. It will communicate with Droltwieh,
Studley, Attester, and stratiord-on-Aeoo.
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 ; and at
Rugby, with the London and Birmingham, the Midland Counties,
and the projected Rugby and Huntingdon Junction Railways.
The country through which it will Pa", Is thickly populated, and
of the richest description. It presents no engineering difficulties, and
from its population, its manufactures, and agricultural produce, it
possesses sources of such abundant traffic as to render it highly re-
munerative to the Capitalists.
The object proposed is to complete the line of railway communica-
tion between the Western, Midland, and Eastern portions :of the
Kingdom, and a glance at the Map of England will show that this
will be effected in the most direct manner by the present line ; touch-
ing, as it will, at one of its termini, a railway runuing direct from
Swansea to Worcester, and at the other, the projected line from
Rugby to Huntingdon—from which point a railway communication
has been already provided.
By meats of this Railway, the manufactures of all the towns and
the agricultural produce of the country contained within its range,
as well as the Ports on the Eastern stud North-Eastern Coast, will
have opened to them a direct and unbroken communication with
the great and densely-populated mineral fields of South Wales, as well
as the markets of the Northern portion of the principality.
To the population. along the one as well as to the Midland and
Northern portions of the kingdom, this undertaking will present the
most direct communication with those towns of fashionable resort—
Leamington and Cheltenham. To the inhabitants of Leamington
and Warwick, it will open the most direct communication with the
city of Worcester and South Wales, whilst to the inhabitants of
Worcester, it will open the markets of the Eastern portions of the
country.
The Shareholders in the several railways Proposed to bo joined or
intersected, will have a preference in the allotment of shares in this
undertaking.
No person will be liable for more than his deposit till the Act le
obtained, and power will be applied for to allow interest at foeer
pounds per centum on all calls from the time of their respective
payments, and to limit the liability of the shareholders to the amount
of their subscription.

This Railway will connect Leicester, Birmi»gbani, and Coventry,
by the nearest practicable route; and was provisionally registered
and capital subscribed long before any other scheme was projected
for supplying railway accommodation to the district.

This line will commence at or near the Wigston station of the Mid-
land Counties Railway, at such point as may best suit the successful
line from London through South Leicestershire, and will pass by or
near the manufacturing localities of Narborough, Sapcote, Earl
Shilton, Burbagc, and Hinckley, through a district most favourable
for engineering purposes, to a junction with the Trent Valley at Nun-
eaton, thence it continues nearly due west to the Whitacre station of
the Birmingham and Derby Itaihray, and south-west by Bedworth
to the Coventry station of the London and Birmingham Company.
The line will communicate with the Swanaingtou Railway either by
means of the proposed Broughton Astiey branch of the Midlands, or
of a separate branch to be formed by this Company ; thereby opening
the entire of the Leicestershire coal-field to the counties south-cast
of Leicester.

The Directors, for the last few months, having used their best
exertions for the interests of the Company, feel it their duty, now
that the surveys, plans, and other arrangements are sofar advanced,
to acquaint their shareholders with the position and prospects of the
undertaking.

The Coventry, Bedworth, and Nuneaton line, which received the
favourable report of the Board of Trade, and was before Parliament
last session, forms part of the present projected plan for connecting
Leicester, Coventry, and Birmingham.
The Directors have, by personal inspection, accompanied by their
engineer, satisfied themselves of the remarkable facilities presented
by the district for executing the greater part of the line ; and from
careful investigation the Directors have the pleasure of informing the
shareholders that this undertaking cannot fail to prove a profitable
investment if supported by local traffic only, and with the certainty
that a through traffic from the eastern and western lines, combined
with the great advantages afforded by the junction with the Trent
Valley for the trinsit of r;eods to and from Liverpool, Scotland, Ire-
land, and the United States, its importance cannot be over estimated.
From the extent of population accommodated by this railway
—from the convenience afforded to the trade and manufactures of
the Midland Counties—from the vast mineral resources of the dis-
tricts traversed, and from its position in regard to other important,
established, and projected railways, the Directors feel confident that
it will be amply remunerative to the Shareholder, and highly advan-
tageous to the public.
The capital has been subscribed, and the Parliamentary deeds have
been executed, and the preliminary survey completed.
A list of a new and highly influential local direction, and a map of
the line, will be published Inc few days.

GREATLEEDS AND LONDON DIRECT
RAILWAY,
By a Junction with the Eastern Counties Railway at Bedford.
Distance, 120 miles.
Capital 2,500,0001., in 100,000 Shares of 251. each.
Deposit 21. 12s. 6d. per Share.
(Pursuant to the Standing Orders of the House of Commons.)

The names of a large and influential Provisional Com mittee will
In a few days be published.
The object of this railway is to connect, In the most direct coarse,
the important and increasing manufacturing town of Leeds with the
Metropolis, the want of which has long been felt, and is too univer-
sally acknowledged to need any comment, and it Is under this con-
viction that this important undertaking, after several minute exa-
minations of the country through which it will pass, has been brought
forward.
Tho proposed line will commence at the junction of the Manche -
ter and Leeds, and York and North Midland Railways, near Wake-
field, and will terminate by means of a junction with the Eastern
Counties Railway at Bedford, (to which place it is the intention of
that .Company to extend their line in the ensuing session of Parlia-
ment), and by thus availing itself as far as possible of the existing
railways, will complete the most direct and least expensive trunk
line, from London to Leeds, Yell:, and Hull. It will pass in its route
within an available distance ,of Wakefield, Pontefract, Doncaster,
Rotherham, East Redford, Nottingham, Newark, Granthun, Melton
Mowbray, Onkham, rind Stamford.
The Importance of sach a line is obvious, both from the nature of
its course (embracing,4as Ist does, a most extensive population within
its limits) as alSo tl'om the absence of any direct communication for
the conveyance of passengers and merchandise.
By the construction of this railway, railway communication to
London will be given to Peterborough and Leicester (by means of
the Syston and Peterborough Railway), to Newark and Nottingham
(by the Nottingham arid Lincoln line), and to Sheffield and Gainsbo-
rough (by the Sheffield and Gainsborough line), by a much shorter
route than by any existing Railways.
Independently attic adCantages offered to the towns in the several
counties through which. this Line will pass, the Line in itself consi-
dered as a direct trAnk line between London and Leeds, is sufficient
to Justify its forMationoftleing well known that the existing traffic '
between these two places Would produce such a return on the capital
required, as tO adult of a dividend, equal to that of any railway in
operation : but when it is borne in mind, that a Company is being
formed for the purp'ose of connecting Glasgow with Leeds by means of
a junction with the York and Carlisle Railway, no better line can be
presented to the public, as it will not only effect a direct communica-
tion from Glasgow and the Western parts of Scotland to London, but
would also connect Edinburgh and the Eastern parts of Scotland as
well as Durham and Newcastle (by the York and North Midland, and
Great North of England Railways), with the Metropolis, which would '
be considerably shorter than the accommodation offered by any
other Company, and when cost of construction Is considered, there
cannot be. a doubt but that preference would be given to the Greet
Leeds and London Direct Railway.
The fact of the Eastern Counties Railway being connected by a
branch line with the East and West India Docks on the river
Thames, and the Railway Company having recently leased for 999
years the extensive pepper warehouses, belonging to those docks,
which are capable of receiving 12,000 tons of goods, together with
wharfs adjoining, where the shipment and trans-shipment of goods
from all parts of the world can take place, is a most important fea-
ture in favour of the direct communication from the manufacturing
towns of Glasgow and Leeds offered by the Great Leeds and London
Direct Railway, and by branch railways to the main trunk line,
through which all goods from the whole of the manufacturing dis-
tricts could be conveyed at once to these warehouses for shipment,
thereby avoiding the present delay and expense of cartage, and in
reality establishing an almost direct and an invaluable connexion
between the rivers Clyde and Thames.

It has been ascertained that there are no engineering difficulties,
that the works will be easy, and the gradients remarkably good, and
that it will not materially interfere with any ornamental property.
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.
It is intended to run two express or fast trains each way daily, and
to give every facility to the public.
It is propsed to take power in the Bill to allow Interest at 4 per
cent, per annum on all calls until the opening of the line, and a so to
extend the Ilan to Hertford on the Eastern Counties line, in the event
of that Company not prosecuting their line to Bedford.
Applications for Shares (in the form annexed) may he made to J.
It. Gibson, Esq., and Messrs. Owen Gray and Lllidgc, the joint so-
licitors to the Company, at their temporary offices, 2, Copthall-court,
London.

No application will be attended to unless accompanied by a satls•
factory reference.

The object of this undertaking is to supply the northern part of
Norfolk with that railway accommodation of which it is at present
wholly destitute. It embraces all the towns in this extensive dis-
trict, and affords direct communication between them and the City
of Norwich, which is the great mart for the agricultural produce of
the county.

By the junction of this line with the Norfolk Railway, and with the
lines to Yarmouth and Lynn, this important locality will obtain
the shortest and most economical route to all parts of England.
This undertaking will prove of incalculable advantage to the agri-
culturists, to the owners of the large and important mills on the
River Burs, and to the maltsters and traders of the district, in the
transmission of their commodities, and by placing them within easy
communication of the ports an.l places from which coals and goods of
every kind consumed in the district, are obtained.

The distinction which Cromer has deservedly obtained, as a most
delightful watering-place, will now be eousiderably enhanced by the
direct communication thus established between it and all parts of the
kingdom.

The unanimous and most cordial support of the merchants and
traders of Norwich is given to this project, as carrying out tho prin-
ciple. of direct communication for which they have so earnestly
contended.

This line will be made with the co-operation and support of the
Norfolk Railway Company (the amalgamated Norwich and Yar-
mouth, and Norwich and Brandon Companies) ; and powers will be
taken to ratify agreements made with the Directors of that Company
for leasing it at 4 per cent. per annum on the outlay, and an equal
division of the surplus profits.

. •
Competent engineers have already surveyed the line, and have re-
ported most favourably on the project, which is free from engineering
difficulty. _ _

The greatest care has been taken to select the line which is best for
the public interest, and at the same time to avoid interference with
any ornamental property.
Application for shares, which, on account of their limited number,
can only be attended to from applicants of first-rate respectability,
may be made to the Provisional Committee, at No. 3, Cleveland-
