SECRETARY Pao. TEM.—Edward Robert Kelly, Esq. M.A.

This railway will connect Manchester with Milford Haven, by the
shortest practical route, and reduce the distance between those ter-
mini to 180 miles. The line commences at Crewe, and passes through
or near to the towns of Nantwich, Whltchurch, Ellesmere, Oswestry,
Welchpool, Montgomery, Newtown, Lianidloes, Tregaron, Lampeter,
Newcastle Emlyn, Newport, Haverfordwest, and Milford. Short
branches will be made to Aberystwith and Cardigan.
Milford Haven is the most capacious and secure harbour in the
British Islands. By taking the tide it may be entered without a
pilot either by day or night, even with contrary winds. Its situa-
tion at the southern extremity of Pembrokeshire renders it, for ves-
sels homeward-bound, from the continent of America, the coast of
Africa, the East Indies, China, and the Mediterranean, the easiest
port to gain ; and the-outward-bound ship may sail from thence with
the wind in any quarter, and immediately find herself in the
Atlantic, free from the dangers and expense 4f a long Charnel voyage,
The proposed railway will connect the Lancashire and Yorkshire
manufacturers with Milford Haven, and afford the like advantage
to the North of England and Scotland.
The expenses on the carriage of exported and imported goods,
which the proposed railway will greatly lessen, or altogether save,
are—

First—The wages and victualling of the ship's crew during the
voyage through St. George's Channel and the Irish Sea, which
varies from two days to three weeks, averaging a third of the whole
voyage from the United States.
Secondly—lnsurance of the ship and cargo during that time.
Thirdly—The channel light dues, pilotage, steam tug, and the river
dues, dock dues, and town dues of Liverpool.'
Lastly—The expensive warehouseing, and eight or nine shillings
per ton carriage by the Liverpool and Manchester Railway.
The carriage by railway of a ton of goods from Milford Haven to
Manchester (180 miles) will be !Ss. at Id. per mile, and 1/. 2s. 6d. at
the rate of 1% d. per mile.

Luca' trafg.--The summer passenger traffic to Aberycostawith, which
is the most fashionable watering-place of the western
other parts of Cardigan Bay, is estimated to exceed thar ilponfindththe
Scarborough Railway, lately constructed.
This line will be the means of transmitting 5/lAoes of all kinds
from the manufacturing districts to the great bulk of the Welsh po-
pulation—and returning agricultural produce and live stock, as
as the flannel manufactures of Newtown and Welchpool—and Will af-
ford access to a variety of stone, slate, lime, coal, lead, and other mi-
nerals, required to be carried to various places, for the purposes of
building, of agriculture, and of manufacture.
A direct connexion with the salt works of Cheshire, through which
the railway route to Manchester will pass, is equally advantageous to
the Company and to the shipping interests of Milford Haven ; and the
certainty of a direct communication being shortly opened between
this line and the Staffordshire Potteries, by one or other of the pro-
jected railways in that direction, adds another important item of
traffic in crates.
The extensive flannel manufactories of Newtown (known as the
Leeds of Wales), of Welchpool, and Llanidloe,s, and the valleys of the
Severn and the Teifl, will be connected with the Yorkshire and Lan-
cashire markets ; and the founderies, potteries, tanneries, and malt
and lime kilns of this industrious and thriving population will form a
considerable source of logal traffic.
The Committee reserve power to alter the northern terminus, by
extending the line to Altrincham, if requisite, and to make such
arrangeemnts with railway companies, either for adopting other lines
for a portion of the route, or for reciprocal working and mileage rates
of carriage, as they may think proper and consistent with the great
object of opening a cheap and direct through communication between
Manchester and Milford Haven.

Power will be applied for in the Bill to allow interest at the rate
of 41. per cent. upon the amount of the deposits until the line is
opened, and no shareholder will be liable for more than the amount
of his subscription.

In the allotment of shares a preference will be given to applica-
tions from persons locally interested.

Applications for shares may be addressed to the Secretary, at the
Company's Offices, No. 2, Norfolk-street, Manchester, and to the
local agents ; and prospectuses, plans, and forms of application may
be had at the following sharebrokers :—Messrs. Bradley, Ford, and

In consequence of arrangements now making for an amalgamation

Com-
pany will not, for the present, iastt the whole number of Um& shares.

This railway is intended to complete a direct communication be-
tween Leeds and Newcastle.
It will commence in junction with the Leeds and Thirsk Rail-
way at Wrath, near Ripon, and following the route, as near as may
be, of the Old Leemlug-lane coach goad, will proceed to a point near
Maskam, thence by way of Bedale, Catterick, Richmond, Middleton
Tyas, Barton, and Manfleld, to Bishop Auckland, where it will join
the Northumberland and Lancashire Junction Railway
The length of the projected line will be about forty miles, which
will render the distance between the important towns of Leeds and
Newcastle thirty miles shorter than by any existing. and fifteen miles
shorter than by any proposed, line of railway.
It will traverse districts abounding with coal, ironstone, lime, and
agricultural produce, hitherto shut out from the advantages of rail-
way communication with the markets of the populous and manufac-
turing districts of Yorkshire and Lancashire.
As this line will join the Yorkshire and Glasgow Union Railway
near Bedale, the Lancashire and North Yorkshire Railway near to
Richmond, and the Leeds and Thirsk Railway at Wath, it will afford
the means of conveying coal, at moderate charges, to the extensive
agricultural districts through which these several railways are pro-
posed to pass.
The coke produced in the Auckland district already commands an
universal preference over that supplied from any other part of the
kingdom, and is accordingly in great request on all the principal
lines, and the proposed railway will afford the most direct and con-
venient outlet for it to the midland districts, where the demand will
be unlimited. _

COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT.

From the most careful and diligent inquiry it has been ascertained
that the coal and coke are alone sufficient to yield an ample return
for the capital employed in the construction of the line, independently
of the present, and continually increasing traffic, in passengers and
merchandize, which experience has hitherto found to result, wherever
the facilities of railway communication has been provided.
The attempts now making to constitute Leeds the great centre of
railway communication between the northern and southern parts of
the kingdom, for which its geographical position and commercial
importance offer so many facilities, must necessarily render the New-
castle and Leeds Direct Railway an important trunk line.
The surveys are already made, and the line has been found to present
no engineering difficulties, and to be of easy and inexpensive con-
struction. All other preliminary steps have likewise been taken to
obtain the Act in the ensuing session of Parliament.

Dundee ; and David Gow, writer in Forfar.
This proposed railway, while it will connect the manufacturing towns
of Dundee and Forfar by the nearest and most direct route, will form
a continuous and connecting link at the river Tay with the follow-
ing great railways :—The Edinburgh and Northern, the proposed
Glasgow and Dundee Junction, and the Perth and Dund, e lines ;
and, at the Forfar Terminus, wiii meet the Scottish Midland Junc-
tion from Edinburgh and Perth, and its proposed extension to the
Aberdeen Railway at Laurencekirk, also the Forfar and Arbroath
Railway, which joins the Aberdeen Railway at Friockheim—thus
amalgamating with these various railways, and forming a continu-
ous and centrical trunk for the general railway communication from
England through Scotland.

length, and, viewed only as
daelTgmrhealies lecioannnenewdecilitifonberg by the manufacturers, merchants, and farmers of
the district. It will beyond all question, from this source alone, have
a traffic sufficient for ample remuneration to the shareholders. For-
far is the county town, and there is necessarily a considerable inter
course with Dundee. To parties locally versant with this manufac-
turing district, the very extensive traffic and intercourse between
Dundee and Forfar are well known. The population of the district
connected with the line, is about 100,000.
Dundee, from its proximity to Forfar, and its extensive shipping
capabilities, is the proper and convenient port for exporting the pro-
duce of the district, but at present there is no direct railway com-
munication. The expense of transmitting goods at present between
Dundee and Forfar is fully double what it should be, and in a great
measure performed by horse carriage, an expensive and tedious pro-
cess; but the formation of this railway win open up a direct and
cheap communication, and will unquestionab'y benefit the trade and
agricultural district, for the pro-
agriculture of the district.

ieby it find an easy and expeditious
transit to Dundee, both for the consumpt and exportation ; and the
agricultural value of the lands will be considerably increased by the
direct communication with the town and harbour of Dundee, and
the railways running south from the Tay. The extensive pave-
ment and slate quarries around Forfar and along the district will be
greatly enhanced by the line, as a cheap and easy access to Dundee
for exportation will thus be afforded.
The promoters of this railway, viewing the extensive local traffic,
the junction with the whole railways before enumerated in con-
nexion with the great English trunk railways, have no hesitation in
submitting this under taking to the public, not only as one necessarily
called for by the mercantile, manufacturing, and agricultural inte-
rests of the district, and public co ,veniency, but more especially by
its being the direct centrical line, forming a continuation of the rail-
way communication by the Edinburgh and Northern and Glasgow
Junction lines, through the counties of Fife and Forfar, to Aberdeen
and the north of Scotland.
As a safe investment for capital, this line, being thus in the midst
of a great manufacturing district, and from the present formation of
railway communication at both ends, will present the sure prospect
of being highly advantageous.
The district has already been surveyed, and presents no difficulty
to the formation of the railway ; and the proprietors and tenants
along the line are understood to be very favourable to the under-
taking.
The requisite Parliamentary notices have been given, so that the
11111 may be introduced and passed in the ensuing Session ; and the
Company's engineer will immediately proceed to finish a minute
survey of the whole line and termini at Dundee and Forfar.

PROSPECTUS.

This line will pass in a direct course from Tunbridge, via Paddock-
wood (thus connecting itself with Maidstone), through the parishes
of Brenchley, Horsmonden, Goudhutst, Cranbrook, Benenden,
Hawkhurst, Sandhurst, Rolvenden, Newenden, Northiam, Peas-
marsh, Beckley, Iden, and Playtien, to the town and harbour of
Rye, and it will embrace a large extent of adjacent country, at pre-
sent unprovided with, and much requiring the admitted advantages
of railway transit.
The length of the line will be about twenty-five miles, a great
portion of it will pass through a level country, and the remaining
part is free from any material engineering difficulty, or works likely
to require any serious outlay, and it is not expected to be necessary
to interfere with any residences or ornamental property.
The saving of distance to Rye, and all the other places embraced
by this line, will be considerable.
The capital required is estimated not to exceed 500,0001.
During the last session of Parliament application was made for
a similar line, partially embracing the same country, when it
was shown in detail, by evidence produced before the Committee,
that the contemplated traffic, after deducting 401. per cent. for work.
ing expenses, would leave a large per tentage upon the invested
capital. That line was rejected on the ground that the best direc-
tion had not been selected, but with an intimation that the port of
Rye was e-ititled to a direct railway communication with the inte-
rior of the country, in the best direction towards London. The pre
sent scheme has been based upon this intimation, taking advantage
of the merits and defects which appeared upo, • that investigation.
and as it embraces a more populous and productive country, aid
passes in a more direct line to London, and will have the benefit of
better access to other and more numerous lines, the sources of traffic
are considerably increased, and there is every reason to believe, from
what passed during the last session, that the present plan will be
favourably entertained by the Legislature.
The chief object is to open the port of Rye to the full benefit of a
railway communication, through a populous and productive district.
In the direction of t ondon, to the best point at which it can avail
itself of the existing and contemplated lines.
The imports of Rye, particularly coals, with lime and other
manures, are of great importance to the country through which the
line will pass, and a cheaper and better mode of transit will much
increase the demand for them, and give the opportunity of great im-
provement in the cultivation of the adjacent country.
A railway through the heart of the chief hop district of the king-
dom, also producing corn, timber, and hop-poles, and communicating
at its terminus with a great part of the Important cattle district of
Romney Marsh, must be a public advantage.
The port of Rye is admitted to be the best outlet and quickest
rout to Paris and to other parts of the Continent, and there can be
no doubt if a direct railway should be made to Rye, with moderate
improvement in the harbour, that it wo, ld be much adopted, particu-
cularly as a national and commercial communication with France.
and by persons travelling on business.
Applications for shares and prospectuses to be addressed to the
Secretary, at the offices, 94, Cheapside ; Messrs. Willis and Neve, so
