The necessity of a City Terminus for the large railways on the
north side of London (which bring the traffic to the metropolis from
the greatest part of England, and from all Wales, Ireland, and Scot-
land) has been long felt, and has he.. pertf*.i.oulg and
ported upon by the Board of Trade.
This railway removes that defect, as by it two City Termini will
be provided—one close to the bottom of Moorgate-street, and the
other in Farringdon-street--for the Great Western, the London and
Birmingham, and the Northern and Eastern; and it will also con-
nect all these railways with each other.
It will commence at the terminus of the Great Western Railway,
at Paddington, and proceed across the Edgeware-road, along the
back of Lord's Crieket-ground, across the Avenue-road, under Prim-
rose-hill, to the London and Birmingham Railway (which it will
cress on a level or a viaduct, as may be preferred) ; thence across
the Hampstead-road, the Kentish Town-road, through the fields,
across Maiden-lane, across the Holloway-road, up to a point near
Islington Church, thence curving round to the Regent's Canal, near
to Frog-lane and the City Lock, across the Canal there, along the
back of Macclesfield-street, crossing the City-road, and passing close
by Messrs. Pickford and Co.'s warehouse, thence proceeding to and
across Old-street and Chiswell-street, to a spot near to the corner of
Fore-street and Little Moorfields, near the bottom of Moorgate-street,
where will be one City Terminus, from which a Branch is proposed
to be made, to join the Eastern Counties' Railway Terminus at
Shoreditch.
From the Regent's Canal, at the City Lock, another Branch of
this Lint will proceed down the Tottenham Extension Railway to
Farringdon-street (the Act for which is now before Parliament),
which will be the other City Terminus.

Ail the House Property required to be taken is of comparatively
little value, being chiefly small or fourth-rat. houses.

Very careful surveys have been made of this line. The cost of
the present Metropolitan railways will form no criterion in judging of
the expense of this, as it differs most materially from them in this
circumstance, viz., that instead of the whole length being on arches,
there will only be 11A miles of it on arches or a viaduct, and the rest
will be ordinary earth work, cuttings, embankments, bridges, &c. ;
and, therefore, it must be admitted by all experienced persons, that
the above capital is amply sufficient.
It is hardly possible to estimate the enormous traffic, in passengers
and goods, that will pass over this railway, for not osly will it take
the passengers to and from the above-named railways, but also all the
local passengers from the neighbourhood of Bayswater, Hyde Park-
gardens, Oxford-terrace, Edgeware-road, Maida-hill, St. John's-wood,
Regeat's-park, Camden-town, Hampstead, Kentish-town, Holloway,
Highgate, Islington, &c., will be carried by it to Moorgate-street or
Farringdon-street ; and, the purpose of collecting such passengers,
it is proposed that carriages in connexion with the railway shall ply
constantly from the stations to points not exceeding one mile and a
half distant, which distance will include all the places above-
named. The lowest estimate of the traffic shows that a clear profit
of 12 per cent. will be realised on the capital ; but there is every
reason to believe that such estimate is far below what will be the
actual receipt.
In addition to the traffic, a large revenne will be obtained from the
ground rents for the lands let off for building sites, which will be un-
usually large on this line, from its situation, and from the arrange-
ment of the railway, whereby all the land at the City end will be
available for new houses, and will be formed into a new street, from
the City-road io Fore-street.
The time for conveying passengers to Moorgate-street, from the
Great Western Railway, will be Nine minutes ; the London and Bir-
mingham, Six minutes ; and other places i-I the same proportion.
All the g00d.4 now removed from the above great railways by carts
and waggons, will also be conveyed by this railway to the City, and
to Messrs. Pickford's large warehouses, in a few minutes, at a trifling
expense. _ _

Great portion of the capital has been already subscribed.

FEVER AND INFLUENZA.
DR. NORRIS'S DROPS are a certain remedy
for Fevers, Colds, Influenza, and all Diseases that arise from
obstructed perspiration. The Medicine here recommended to the
Practitioner, and the Public, possesses qualities of the most mild and
beneficial nature ; it is composed of articles known to be the most
anti-putrescent, combined with the ingredient known to the profes-
sion, as the only certain anntidote for Fevers of every description.
When the disease is produced either from cold, obstruction, bail air,
swampy and damp situations, or putrid miasma, whether malignant
or epidemic, or by other causes, this medicine is certain in its opera-
tion and effects, it produces the most gentle and salutary perspira-
tion, and by a specific quality, peculiar to itself, not only expels the
disease, but restores and invigorates the system. These celebrated
Drops have had the unbiassed testimonies to their invariable effects,
of numbers of the nobility, gentry, and medical men of this king-
dom, and the extensive demand for them from the West Indies and
America, proves that in those countries they are held in equal
estimation.
The Genuine will have engraved on the Government Stamp,
" Thomas Norris Moore."
