18, Great George-street, Westminster, July 22, 1845.

The Committee take this opportunity ofstating that in order to ensure
the completion of a line of railway along the north bank ofthe Thames
to the City, they have determined on extending the embankment
portion of their project from Waterloo-bridge to the City as intimated
In their original prospectus, providel the-Committee do not arrange
with some other party of sufficient railway influence by which this
extension may be effected, and they have accordingly taken the pre-
caution of registering this addition to the scheme.
The necessity of a central terminus is daily becoming more urgent,
which is evinced by the many schemes which have been brought
before the public for that purpose since the prospectus of this
Company was first published, but with the great accession of
strength the Committee have now obtained by the valuable co-
operation of the several influential railway Directors above-men-
tioned, the Committee feel confident they need fear no opposition.
The allotment of the shares will take place as soon as possible, of
which due notice will be given.—By order

The difficulty in obtaining a good Central London terminus has
hitherto been an insuperable obstacle to a railway communication
between London and the populous and important localities which this
line will serve. This obstacle has now been removed by the exten-
sion of the South Western Railway from Nine-elms to the foot of
Hungerford Market Bridge, for which an Act of Parliament has been
obtained this session ; and by the proposed railway bridge across the
Thames, on the cast side of the Hungerford Market Suspension
Bridge, for which a Company has been formed to obtain an Act in the
ensuing session.
Arrangements have been made with the South Western Railway
Company, securing the terminus at Hungerford Market.
The London, Hounslow, and Western Railway is intended to com-
mence at Hungerford Market Railway Bridge in the Strand, and run
along the South Western line to a point near Battersea Church,
thence crossing the Thames, and running througk Fulham, Hammer-
smith, Chiswick, Turnham Green, Brentford, Isleworth, Hounslow,
and the intermediate towns and villages to Staines, with a branch
from Hounslow to the Great Western Railway, at or near West
Drayton.
The South Western Company contemplate applying to Parliament
in the ensuing Session for an Act to enabls them to extend their line
from Hungerford Mallet Bridge to London Bridge, which will afford
to this Company a terminus at London Bridge as well as at Hunger-
ford Market.
The population and the mercantile traffic with London and the
West of England, of the various localities through which this Rail-
way will pass, far exceed that of any other district in the vicinity of
the metropolis, ant no available railway communication from those
localities, either to London or to the western or south-western parts
of England, at present exists.
The line has been surveyed, and presents no engineering difficul-
ties ; the greater portion of the cluntry through which the railway
will pass is nearly level ; very little ornamental and house property
will be interfered with, and, as a consequence, the expense of con-
struction and of the acquisition of the ground for the line will be
comparatively small.
Time average weekly passenger traffic of Hounslow, Isleworth,
Brentford, Kew-bridge, Turnham-green, Hammersmith, and Fulham-
bridge, taken front the Stamp-office returns, allowing eight pas-
sengers to each emnibus and coach, gives the following results :

WestminsterrS.!a
Parker and Preston, 21, Great
George-street,
Many of the principal merchants and traders in London and Man-
chester, engaged in the trade of those towns, being of opinion—
That it is of paramount importance to the trade, and to the public,
that they should not continue dependent for communication between
London and Lancashire upon one, and that a circuitous line of rail-
way, already inadequate to the purposes of the existing traffic.
That the immediate formation of a direct line is essential because,
if delayed, it will become more and more difficult, in consequence
of the branch railways which local necessity will originate.
That an independent trunk line is necessary to guard the trade and
commerce of the metropolis and Lancashire against excessive charges,
and the many evils of a rapidly-extending monopoly ; they have,
therefore, established this Company to form such a line.
The objects of the Company are—
' To form the shortest practicable line.
To traverse it in the shortest possible time, consistently with
safety, by the best motive power, at the cheapest fares, and
at the least possible charge for goods.
Experience has shown, as to railways, that the interest of the pub-
lic and the interests of the proprietors are identical.
That the lowest fares and charges, and the quickest journeys, are
advantageous to both.
That system which has quintupled the number of letters by the
post, the result of celerity and cheapness, must prove equally effica-
cious hi the transit of persons and goods.
The promoters of the present undertaking are, for the most part,
largely interested in the trade between London and Manchester.
They deem another line essential to the increasing wants of the
great manufacturing and commercial interests throughout the whole
distance.
Their own operations will contribute greatly to the traffic of the
intended line, and they are, therefore, deeply interested in its eeta-
blishment.
The London promoters of this line, in their ordinary commercial
operations, now pay for the carriage of gooda, &c., a sum equal to
four per cent. upon the whole capital ; an amount of traffic which
will pass upon the direct line when completed.
They are convinced that the time has arrived when direct lines to
principal towns have become absolutely necessary, and will yield the
greatest benefit to those interested in them, and to the country at
largo.
Tills line will afford accommodation to many considerable towns,
as yet untouched by any existing line.
It is intended to commence in London as near the centre of busi-
ness as possible.
In its course, the line will approach to and accommodate the fol-
lowing towns—viz., Barnet, St. Albans, Dunstable, Luton, Ampthill,
Bedford, Wellingborough, Kettering, Market liarborough, Leicester,
Loughborough, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Burton-on-Trent, lUttoxeter,
Cheadle, Leek, Macclesfield, atockport, and Manchester, terminating
in the station of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway.
The present nearest approach to Manchester is by the London and
Birmingham and the Manchester and Birmingham Railways, a dia.
tance of 1971 miles. By the proposed line the distance will be con-
siderably shortened, and will form the nearest route to Carlisle, and
all places north of Manchester. There will be no change of trains,
or removal of luggage from one train to another ; no delay in waiting
for trains from other parts of the country, but the same train will
proceed without loss of time throughout the whole distance.
The atmospheric principle will be publicly tested before the next
session of Parliament, and the Committee will be prepared to adopt
it, if in practice it shall vindicate its claims to superiority.
Applications fo: Shares may be made, addressed to the Provisional
Committee, or to the Solicitors, at the Company's Offices, 48, Moor
gate-street, London, of whom Rather particulars may be obtained.

The increased traffic on a railway has always proved
to be more than double the pre-existing traffic, but
taken at double will give for the passengert raffle of
the above places alone, per annum ...... £161,537 4 0
The foregoing statement does not include the passenger traffic of
Staines, Englefleld-Green, Egham, Bedfont, and the numerous ad-
jacent villages.
The present traffic by carriages, gigs, and horses may be estimated
at one-half of the above amount. It has been ascertained by actual
observation, that 3,264 carriages and gigs pass to and through Brent-
ford within a week.

_ ......
Many of the numerous passengers by the steam-boats now plying
on the Thames between London and the intermediate places to
Brentford and Isleworth, will necessarily avail themselves of the su-
perior advantages of railway transit.
Exclusive of the passenger traffic through Brentford, there are on
an average 1,850 waggons and carts to Brentford every week.
The extensive merchandise traffic on the River Thames between
London and Staines, and the intermediate towns, is subject to great
interruption upwards from Brentford, by droughts in summer, and
by floods and frosts in winter ; the circuitous course of the river and
the great horse-power required to draw the barges against the strong
current, render the traffic by the river slow and very expensive.
Every description of merchandise can be carried by this railway at a
much less rate, and quicker than by the present water carriage.
Since the opening'of the Great Western Railway a large portion of
the former passenger and merchandise traffic has been transferred to
that railway from the old Great Western coach-road, which is parallel
with this line, a great part of which will necessarily be restored to the
London, Hounslow, and Western Railway.

" The various positions of Lover, Husband, and Parent, the in-
herent privileges of mankind, are frequently marred and prevented
through the follies and frailties of early indiscretions. To such, among
others, this Essay addresses itself; and by its perusal many questions
may be satisfactorily adjusted that admit of no appeal even to the
most confidential friend."—Stafford Gazette.

"Long experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto
neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great bulk of the
medical profession, has enabled the writer to prove that there are
concealed causes of Nervous Debility in existence, where the mere
routine practitioner would never dream of finding them; traceable
to certain habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and fatal
springs of domestic misery, and premature mortali+y."—Wakefield

This Company is established pursuant to the following request and
authority :--
" We, the undersigned, being interested in the trade of Manchester,
and in the shortest and quickest intercourse between Landon and
Manchester, hereby express our conviction that a direct line of rail-
way between those places will give the public the greatest cheapness,
convenience, and speed.
" That it is of paramount importance to the trade, and to the
public, that they should not continue dependent for communication
with Lancashire upon one, and that a circuitous lino of railway.
" That the immediate formation of a direct line is essential,
because, if delayed, it will become more and more difficult, in con-
sequence of the branch railways which local necessity will originate.
" That an independent trunk line is necessary, to guard the trade
and commerce of the metropolis and Lancashire against excessive
charges. and the many evils of a rapidly-extending monopoly. '
" We therefore authorise and request Messrs. Ashurst and Son,
Solicitors, and Messrs. Sudlow, Sons, and Torr, Solicitors, to take
the necessary steps for the formation of a Committee, with a view
to the adoption of such a line.

SOLIcITOR.—w. Bevan, Esq., OM Jewry,
SECRETARY (pro. tem.)—Mr. George Upton.
It is proposed, in the first instance, to make a railway from Callao,
the chief port, to Lima, the capital of Peru, the great mart of trade,
and general resort of the whole Peruvian nation ; awl afterwards to
lay such lines on the coast of the Pacific as may be approved of by
the Shareholders at a general meeting.
The distance from Callao to Lima is about seven English miles.
There is open ground all the way suited to receive the rails, the gra-
dient uniform, and no curves, with an abundant supply of water-
power. It is estimated that the cost of this line will not exceed
50,0001. ; and, when it is considered that it will command the whole
traffic of passengers, and the conveyance of goods between the chief
port and the capital of Peru, it may fairly be assumed that the un-
dertaking will be one of unusual profit.
_ _

Should the operations of the Company be confined to the line be-
tween Callao and Lima, no Ihrther portion of the capital will be called
for than may be sufficient to construct that line ; and if the objects
of the Company be not carried out, the whole of the deposit-money
will be returned.
