This •

The title of this line sufficiently and correctly explains the object
of the undertaking.
The Birmingham terminus will be placed in communication with
all the other railways having a station in that town, and will be
brought as near as practicable to its centre. Proceeding thence in a
northerly direction, and on the west side of the Lichfield road, it will
pass within a short distance of Sutton Coldfield, and to Lichfield, at
the latter of which ?laces there will be a tation In communication
with the projected Walsall lines.
Thence crossing the Trent Valley, near King's Bromley, it will
pursue the course of the Blythe Valley, or by or near to Abbots
Bromley to Leigh, where it will leave the Blythe Valley, and by a
short cutting reach the Tean station on Reming:on's London and
Manchester line at the junction of the Crewe branch, or by a junc-
tion with whichever of the projected lines to Manchester may be
adopted by Parliament.
The entire length of the new line to be made will not exceed
thirty-four miles, and the whole will be carried over a most fitVetir-
able country—two-thirds being a water-level.
Sections ofa great portion of the line have been made, and the en-
tire Parliamentary survey will be completed by the 9th ofOctober.
This railway will afford'a route from Birmingham to Manchester
eleven miles shorter than by any existing or projected line. It will
also give the best and nearest line between Huddersfield, and Bir-
mingham.
It will also furnish a nearer and more direct route from 13111111ns-
ham to the Potteries than any line made or projected by Several
miles, assuming any of the projected Pottery lines to have their ter-
mini at Colwich, on the Trent Valley, or at Stafford, on the Grand
Junction Railway ; thus giving to Manchester, and a:so the Pot-
teries, the shortest, easiest, and most direct route to Birmingham.
It will also give the nearest line between Huddersfield and Birming-
ham and Southampton.
This railway crosses the projected Leeds and Huddersfield and
Wolverhampton Direct Railway. In the Blythe Valley a station will
be placed, and communication effected, so as to afford to Birmingham
the shortest route by many miles, with Leeds, Huddersfield, Sheffield,
and the northern parts of England. In allotting shares every legi-
timate preference will be given to the landholders on the line.
It is obvious that the projected line will afford an ample return to
the shareholders.
For prospectuses, shares, and every information, apply to the
Nroourgtbh;ampton

a large share of legitimate influence. The numerous persons, with
undoubted claims on the score of wealth and social standing, whese
applications have either been passed pvcr or cut down, are requested
to accept this reason as the Committee's-apology.
The Committee desire to add, that while attestations of public
support are daily reachinr, them from the most influential quarters,
the.enginecring preparations,' under Mr. Braithwaite, are so far ad-
vanced, that the project cannot fail to be placed before Parliament in
a manner the most satisfactory to the Shareholders.

PROS Pr.Ol.llS.
Camel:C.l'lg at Cambri4ge, which has, now bteome the traffic-
centreof the Eastern Counties, by the line of railway intended to he
(armed by that Company, this line will proceed to Bedford, there
passing:near Olney it will cross at or rear the Blisworth StatiOn 01 the
London and Birmingham Railway, where it will emimunicate with
the Northampton and Peterborough line; it will then proceed west-
ward, crossing the Oxford and Rugby line at or near Fenny-Compton
to Stratford-on-Avon, there joining the proposed use from Warwick
and Leamington to Cheltenham, Gloucester, 11l istol, and the West of
England ; continuing its course through Alcester, the line will go di-
rect to Worcester, and thus terminate at the great centre of traffic
for the mineral and manufacturing districts of South Staffordshire,
sitropshire, and North and South Wales. This proposed line does
not interfere with any existing railways, and presenting, as it does,-
an unbroken line between two great centres of traffic, the importanie
of the undertaking needs no further comment.
