London and Birmingham Railway, where it will communicate 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 line from Warwick
and Leamington to Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, 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 manufactaring districts of/South Staffordshire,
Shropshire, 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 importance
of the undertaking needs no further comment.
Negotiations have been entered into with the Eastern Coun-
ties Railway Oompany, by which their support and co-operation will
be ensured for obtaining the line now proposed.
An arrangement has also been made with the proposed Rugby,
Warwick, and Worcester Company, which this line will join at Al-
cester, and by means of which the Eastern Counties' traffic will pro-
ceed to Worcester.

--
Power will be reserved to the Directors to amalgamate with any
other existing or projecting Companies, or to vary the line.

SOUTH IIII)LAND AND NORTH UNION
RAILWAY.
(Provisionally Registered.)
This important line of railway is intended to open a direct commu-
nication from Staffordshire and the Midland Counties (passing through
the Potteries) to the extensive manufacturing town of Sheffield, by
means of which it will form the most direct transit for traffic, and
the manufactures of all the principal towns, and the agricultural and
mineral produce of the conntry contained within its range.
The principal object of this railway is, that it will bring the prin-
cipality of Wales into immediate connexion with the Midland Coun-
ties, and will form a continuous trunk line from the north-east to
the south-west parts of the kingdom.
To the capitalist this undertaking presents a highly beneficial
source of remunerative profit, and to the population of the south-
west midland and northern portions of the kingdom most important
advantages.
The prospectus, with the names of the Provisional Committee, will
be issued in a few days; in the meantime applications for shares in
the usual form may be addressed to the Secretary, at the offices of
the Company, 23, Finsbury-place North ; or to the solicitor, S. Ken-
dall, Esq , Clement's Inn, London.

This Company is formed for the purpose of carrying into effect an
agreement which has been concluded with the Monmouthshire Canal
Company for the purchase and transfer of the whole of the important
interest of that extensive and valuable property.
The Monmouthshire Canal Company was first incorporated by an
Act passed in the year 1793. Two subsequent Acts have extended
the sphere of the Company's operations, and their present tram-
roads communicating with most of the great iron and coal works of
the district exceeds fifty miles in length, whilst the extent of their
two branches of canal is twenty-two miles.
During the last forty-five years the concern has continued to be
one of a highly profitable description, the average annual dividend
paid to the shareholders having been during the whole of that period
at the rate of 71.125. per cent., and during the last twenty-five years
the average annual dividend has exceeded 101. per cent., being 101.
per share on the original 1001. shares.
The value of these shares has of course increased with the im-
proved dividends, and the purchase-money now agreed to be paid
for the whole of the canal property is at the rate of 2001. per share.
The purchase will secure to the Monmouthshire Railway Com-
pany the whole of the present profitable trade of the Canal Company,
with the certainty of a very great increase therein, as the consequence
of the intended application of the modern principle of railway loco-
motive power to the present tram-roads of the Canal Company.
Thus, beyond its prospective advantages, this undertaking is distin-
guished from most of the numerous projects now before the public,
in this—that an immediate return will arise to the shareholders from
the present works of the Canal Company now in full operation.
For a long time past large sums have been annually expended by
the Canal Company in solid improvements of their property. The
last projected improvement is the formation of a line of railway
neon the modern construction from Newport to Pontypool, a distance

passed during thelast session, and which railway forms a part of the
Although by the Newport and Pontypool Railway Act a reduction
has been made in the amount of
tonnagetti
the actual
hithertoyalne payableof the
Canal Company, this will not lessen property,
for it is undeniable that much of the natural traffic of the Company
has been diverted into other channels s9gltir in consequence of the
recent Act confers on
high standard of the rates of tonnage.
yP°t:osessof
the Company the power which they did not
becoming carriers on their lines, and it is only reasonable
calcu-
late that by the judicious use of this power and the vigorous
ro
cution of the improvements of the existing tram-roads the trapflicsseo-
alienated will be recovered, as well as much new traffic created.
Thus, whilst the value of the canal property will be materially en-
hanced, the freighters will at the same time reap all the advantages
designed for them in the recent Parliamentary revision of the
tonnages.
It is further proper to state that the branch lines intended to have
been made and purchased by the Canal Company to the iron, coal,
and other works, will also be formed, thereby securing a consider-
able increase of trade upon the main lines.
Owing mainly to the obstacles in the way of cheap and quick
transit, the endless resources of Monmouthshire have as yet been
but very partially developed; but, in

extensive trade

Shares to the amount of 20,0001. in the Newport Dock form part of
the purchase of the canal interest. These extensive docks have
been constructed in the best possible manner, with a lock capable of
admitting vessels of the largest class. In proof of this it may be
stated that vessels of 1,080 tons registered tonnage have with ease
entered and been loaded in the dock.
The Canal Company have not hitherto afforded any accommoda-
tion whatever to passenger traffic, consequently no revenue has been
derived from this usually fertile source of profit, but reference need
only be made to the dense resident population engaged in the iron,
tin, and coal works of Monmouthshire to prove that a very great
passenger traffic would be the result of the introduction into these
districts of the modern railway facilities.
The general extension of railway communication contemplated in
the neighbouring districts of Wales and England, will, in connexion
with the lines of this Company, most advantageously open to Mon-
mouthshire uninterrupted intercourse with all other portions of the
kingdom. Thus, whilst facilities hitherto unknown will be created
for the exportation of the mineral wealth of the locality, the freest
admission will be given to the agricultural produce and manufac-
tures of other parts of the kingdom, for both of which a constant de-
mand exists in the mineral districts.
In the allotment of shares, preference will be given to Proprietors
in the Monmouthshire Cana', to Shareholders in the Newport, Aber-
gavenny, and Hereford Railway, and to landowners on the line.

station, from whence tie line will be continued in as direct a course as
possible to Holyhead
In its progress it will pass through or near to the following towns:
—Rickmansworth, Chesham, Wendover, and Aylesbury; it will then
proceed to within a short distance of Bffester and Deddington, and
from thence to Banbury ; It will touch upon ICineton or Kingtown,
thence proceed' onward to Stratford-on-Avon, approach within a
short distance of Warwick, Alcester, and Worcester, where it will
cross the Birmingham aid Gloucester Railroad near to Bromsgrove,
and proceeding thence to Kidderminster, Bridgnorth, and Wenlock,
near to Broseley and Coalbrookdale, will enter the Vale of the
Severn, which it will traverse to Shrewsbury; it will thence con-
tinue its route up the course of the Severn, and passing into the Vale
of the River Vyrnwy, will proceed to Llaa-y-mynech, Llaurhaladr,
and Mechnant, accommodating Welchpool, Oswestry, and Llangollex.
At this point there arc three passes, which have been inspected, and
it remains for the engineer to select one as an entrance or passage
into the Vale of the River Dee, when the line will proceed round by
Corwen into the Vale of the River Alwen, from whence it will run
nearly parallel with the great Holyhead Mail-coach-road, by Pentre-
voelas to Capel Cerrig, it will then descend the Vale of Nant Francon
to Bangor and Holyhead.
This line will in its progress feed, and be also fed by the most consi-
siderable railroads of the kingdom, particularly those of the Great
Western ; the Birmingham, Gloucester, aid Bristol; the Oxford,
Worcester, and Wolverhampton ; the London and Birmingham ; and
the South Staffordshire Railway. As this last line will connect
Dudley, Bilston, Wednesbury, Walsall, and Lichfield with the
Derby Railway and the Grand Junction Railway, It would
be superfluous to expatiate on the advantages of bring-
ing all those important centres of the coal and iron trade and
other traffic, and the vast coal and iron fields of Shropshire
into close intercourse, and thus establishing the cheapest and
quickest means of transit between the minerals of Shropshire and the
furnaces of Staffordshire, and the markets of Dublin, London, and
Birmingham. The success of the undertaking is secured beyond a
doubt, by the obvious fact that it will net only bring the richest
mineral and manufacturing portions of England much nearer to the
two capitals, but it will open for the carriage of the valuable pro-
duce of these districts the intermediate country not at present pos-
sessed of any direct line of railway communication. On the other
hand, the Grand London and Dublin Approximation Railway will
give to London and the neighbourhood of Birmingham a roue to
Dublin shorter by nearly seventy miles than that of any other exist-
ing railroad ; and finally, enable travellers to complete the entire
distance in ten hours.
It will also ensure two mail deliveries in the day.
Up to the point where the line approaches Corwen, no engineering
difficulties are presented. At Corwen a deviation from the straight
line may be requisite to avoid tunielling, after which a straight line
will be resumed to Bangor, where that already in construction will
be adopted for the rest of the , route to Holyhead ; or, if found de-
sirable, power will be taken in the Bill to continue an independent
line by Beaumaris to Holyhead.
After a careful investigation of the traffic arising from passengers,
the conveyance of mineral and agricultural produce, and the direct
transmission of the mails, the Directors fed warranted in anticipating
a return of at least ten per cent. on the capital invested.
A treaty is in progress with a Steam Navigation Company to run
powerful steamers between the harbours of Holyhead and Kingston
on the arrival of the trains, so that passengers and merchandise may
be booked throughout from London to Dublin, including all the inter-
mediate stations, and be thus enabled to complete the entire distance
in ten hours, without the inconvenience so painfully felt of changing
from the conveyance of one proprietary to that of another. The
railways now in active progress in Ireland, running from Dublin
north and south throughout the heart of the island, render it self-
evident that the chain of communication between the sister countries
is, by this present undertaking, rendered at once complete
and intimate to the last degree. As the leading aim of
this Company is to save time and distance, every attention of
the Directors, and every advancement in science will be made
available to gain the utmost possible amount of speed, com-
patible with safety, the lines being formed expressly for this end;
while, finally, the very lowest rate of fares will he adopted for both
passengers and traffic, and the pnblic will find in the improvement of
the inferior carriages, and some additional comforts for those of the
first class, that the Grand London and Dublin Approximation Rail-
way will be placed in advance of any other now existing, and is all
its details will be rendered worthy an enterprise so national in its
character.
Application will be made for a Bill to incorporate the Company
early in the next session. The usual power will be taken by the Act
to allow interest at 4/. per cent. per annum on the amount of the
subscriptions paid up; and no subscriber will be answerable for more
than the amount of his deposit until the Act be obtained, and then not
beyond the amount of his subscription.
Applications for Shares may be made, in the subjoined form, to
the following Solicitors, Brokers, and Agents :—Messrs. Camsron

This Railway is projected fir the purpose of uniting the Rhondda
and Ely Values, with the South Wales Railway, at a few miles dis-
tance from the Port of Cardiff; and to open a new mineral district,
one of the richest and most important in South Wales, which is at
present without the means of transit fir its immense and valuable
products.
It will pass through the central portion of the great coal-field of
Glamorganshire, where iron-stone also abounds with the coal in Im-
mense quantities, and laying, geologically speaking, nearly fiat, and,
obtainable, for the most part, by proper levels. The coal in addition
to its being of excellent quality for iron making, as is proved at Mer-
thyr and Aberdare, is also, like that of those districts, of the very
best Clescriptian for steam purposes, being nearly smokeless, although
inflammable, indeed so pre-eminently is the superiority of this de-
scription of coal established for steam purposes over any other,
that the demand for it far exceeds the supply, and promises, accord..
ing to the opinion of the most eminent marine engineers, to super-
sede all others for purposes of steam navigation. This source of
trams alone will afford a handsome return for the capital invested,
as has been deraonstrated in every instance where even tram-roads or
canals have been constructed to open the mineral resources of other
less promising values in Wales than the Rhondda, which is cele-
brated for the abundance, quality, and facility of obtaining its pro-
ductions.
An inexhaustible supply of limestone (so neeessarybeforobtltiaeinmedanb

any other
line.
This line will afford to the increasing population of the rich vales
of Ely and Rhondda a much desired communication with the great
market town said port of Cardiff, from whence, at present, they may
be said to be almost excluded.

This Company has been formed for the purpose of constructing
line in continuation of the South-Eastern Railway at
Reigate,
whereby a direct junction will be effected between the whole of the
south-eastern coast, including the port and harbour of Dover and the
several ports and towns of Southampton, Gosport, Portsmouth, ain.(!
Bristol ; and, by means of the Bristol and Birmingham Railway, NV.l'd
Gloucester, Worcester, Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool,
the north of England.
From its proximity to the Continent, the port of Dover will alwaYs
be the most accessible point of the English coast; an expeditious
communication therefore between that and the other ports, harbour";
and inland:towns of the United Kingdom, must necessarily ba regard"'
as a great national advantage.
Dover is at present the chief port of embarkation for Calais,
„...,
Boulogne, Ostend, and other continental towns, and the vast ntunr_:
already resorting there both on business and pleasure, will be 11
measurably increased when the railways of France, Belgium, It°
land, and Germany are fully brought into operation. vitt%
In addition to which, the Government Commissioners .3
selected Dover as a Harbour of Refuge, and recommended the eel
there •of 1,500,0001., it cannot fail of becoming a place t
greatest resort for the shipping and commercial interests of the coal
try, arid perhaps the most important town on the southern coast.
In every point of view, therefore, whether for national security,. e.,r
for travelling excursions, or the invaluable interests of our shipping
and commerce, the paramount importance of a cheaper, mere 00'1
nient, and accelerated intercourse between this great port and a
parts of the kingdom, must be sufficiently obvious. This the Pro-
moterswill be attained by the
fully anticipate proposed railtil;
which will form a portion of a grand trunk line, comFletingthe
chain of railway communication upon the narrow gauge between i
south-eastern coast, and Bristol and the western, northern, acrd mla.

The Rae will commence at the terminus of the Seuth-Eastehl o,

way. It will then proceed. by Andover towards Devizes, "orse'

By its course through Dorking, Godalming, Farnham, by
ham, it will supply the railway accommodation so much reeureL.y,
those towns, and connect the rich and fertile hop districts a Srti,lie
Kent, and South Hants, and afford the means of conveyance el
produce to the great Hop-fair at Weyhill.
By its junction with the contemplated " Reading, Guildford, and
Reigate Railway," it will afford to the inhabitants of Reading, °IN
t$
and to the midland counties generally, the best and shortest re:, the
the Continent, as well as to Worthing, Hastings, Brighton, se of
other watering-places in Sussex and Kent; and a vast iner.et-riot
visitors will undoubtedly be attracted to those places from the inter

By its intersection of the South-Western Railway at Ittee,nS„-rther
and of the proposed Mancheater and Southampton Railway
west, the present line will connect Dover towards the setae, ve.o),
Southampton (the packet station for the East and West Belies,

Gosport, and Fortsmouth, and towards the north, with Cheitel, also
Gloucester, Worcester, Birmingham, Manchester, and LiverPo° ~ge
with Shrewsbury, Chester, and Holyhead, and in fact with the .°
of North and South Wales.
At Basingstoke, also, this line will join the proposed Londroonor
bury, and Yeovil Railway, and throw open to Dover and 11 and
eastern counties the populous and wealthy cities of Salisn oset,
Exeter, the rich agricultural counties of Wilts, Dorset, sad
and Devon, the ports of Plymouth, Devonport, and Falmouth,
the mineral regions of Cornwall. totcni
To Devizes, Trowbridge, Bradford, and Bath, and the other oder
in the vicinity of its course, the benefit which this line vld.l
