moters of the Bill were not allowed any opportunity of testing before
the case was closed; they have since done so, and ascertained the
section to be most incorrect—in fact, twenty chains longer than it
ought to have been, by which the gradients were, of course, propor-
tionablyflattened.

The discovery and proof of this error have not, however, been
deemed of sufficient importance to warrant a rc-committal of the
Bill.

The very general support which the Newark and Sheffield line,
with its extensions, has received, coupled with the strong recom-
mendation from the Board of Trade on public grounds, affords the
best assurance that it must obtain the sanction of the Legislature in
the next session of Parlament.

This short but important railway will commence by forming a
junction at the viaduct over the river Trent, near Alrewas, on the
Birmingham and Derby Railway, and proceed in nearly a straight
line to Dudley, being a distance of about twenty-one miles, forming
a direct and unbroken railway communication between Derby and the
North Midland Counties and Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and the
other South-Western Counties of England.
This railway includes in its course the city of Lichfield and the
large and rapidly increasing town of Walsall ; leaving which it will
continue through the manufacturing and mining districts of Wednes-
bury and Tipton, to its terminus at Dudley, where it will unite
with the railways connecting Stourbridge, Kidderminster, Stourport,
and Worcester, and the whole of the south-West district. Near
Bescot Bridge it will join the Grand Junction Railway, so as to form
the shortest route to Birmingham ; and by means of a branch
through Darlaston and Bilston, to join the proposed lines from Bir-
mingham and Dudley, will also form the most direct line to Wolver-
hampton.
. _

The shortest and most direct line will thus be formed for the
transit of manufactured iron, Ike., rrom the centre of the Vast
mineral and manufacturing districts of South Staffordshire, to Gains-
borough and Hull, and to Sneffield and the other great markets of
the North.

The ironstone and other pfoduce of the Derbyshire mines will also
He brought by means of this railway direct to the furnaces of Stafford-
shire, and the coal from Cannock Chase and Brownhills (the best for
domestic purposes), will be conveyed at a small cost to supply the
towns of Walsall, Wolverhampton and Birmingham.
The Hay Head lime, and that of Bushell, the former considered
the beet for hydraulie works, and the latter for agricultural purposes
and for the manufacture of iron, together with the blue bricks and
tiles of Walsall Wood, at present so much in demand, but nearly
excluded for want of railway access, will all be brought directly
into the proper markets, and will form an immense traffic for this
railway.

Some estimate of the Passenger Traffic may be formed when it is
stated that the population of the towns embraced by this undertaking
amounts to nearly three hundred thousand ; and when the enormous
traffic which must remit from opening up the most favoured district
in England is considered, there can be no doubt that the construction
of this railway, besides the great benefit arising to the public, will
prove, as an investment, amply remunerative to the Shareholders.
Preliminary surveys have been made, and the line is favourable both
as regards gradients, economy of construction, and future working.
There are no expensive earth works or engineering difficulties, and
the estimate is under the usual average per mile ; and the line Is so
laid out as not to interfere with any ornamental property.
Applications for Shares may be made, in the form appended, to
any of the solicitors, or to Messrs. Aston and Scott, stock and share-
brokers, 32, Throgmorton-street, London ; and the following share-
brokers :—Mr. W. H. Collis, Birmingham; Mr. Payne, Wolverhamp-
ton ; Mr. J. T. Holland, Coventry ; Mr. NewmarCh, Manchester ;

ference.
