COMMENCING AT KIDDERMINSTER AND ENDING AT

Iron ore, barytes, and carboniferous and illagtiesiali Milestone on the
route, in addition to forming a direct, speedy, and cheap comnittfilert•
tiou between the important towns above mentioned.
Arrangements have been made with other companies to run into
this line ffoin Sheffield. Thiel company reserves the right to raise
additional capital•to extend the line to LeetiS.
Many of the above-mentioned mineral productions are essential
to
the mining district's of South Staffordshire and Sheffield. The North
Staffordshire and Derbyshire Limestone is much superior to that of
South Staffordshire in the fluxion of iron (15 cwt. of the former being
equal to a ton of the latter), and producing a better quality of ma-
terial. At present, the mode Of transit is very circuitous and expen-
sive, the line from the Caldon Mines having to go by canal round
by Etruria, Leek, and the Potteries, to the Dudley and surrounding
.furnaces, when, by this railway, it would be taken In a straight line
to them ; and the Ashbourne, Cromford, Worksworth, and Bakowell
country would have an entirely new trade opened to them. The
ironstone in the neighbourhood of Sheffield is also becoming very
scarce, and great quantities are introduced from Scotland; the same
scarcity exists in South Staffordshire ; and the route of this line
would furnish a geed
supply, at present not worked, and without a
market, both north and south. In addition to these great advan-
tages, a good local market would be opened along the agricultural
and other parts of the district at present very badly supplied with
lime and coal, and that of an inferior quality, and by expensive car-
riage. It is, therefore, next to impossible to calculate the immense
traffic which would pour down this line and the Derbyshire, Stafford-
shire; aad Worcestershire Junction Railway.
The calculations which have been made show a very large profit.
There arc large lead and slate quarries on the lisle which only want
an outlet like the one now contemplated to bring them into ftill work.
The coal is of a superior quality.
There are also extensive barytes and paint-works at Ashbourne,
Cromford, and other places on the line. The scenery of Derbyshire
is the resort of vast numbers of tourists; and particular care will be
taken, in passing of the line near Dovedale, not to interfere with or
change its beautiful and romantic character. The convenience,
therefore, which this line will afford must necessarily cause a great
influx of passengers, both on business and pleasure.

Banks, Bagots Wood and Kingston Woods, upwards of 4,000

ance ; whereas this line would open a direct, easy, and cheap
communication to new markets. The line has been viewed prior to
a detailed survey, and there are not more than ordinary engineering
difficulties. In consequence of the late Parliamentary decisions, it is
intended to make this.line on the broad gauge principle, but the pro-
moters do not pledge themselves absolutely to do so.

This line will commence at the terminus of the Manchester and
Birmingham Railway at Macclesfield, and passing by the Rudyard
reservoir to Leek, will proceed by the Churnet Valley to Consall,
thence close to Cheadle, and Tean, and by Uttoxeter, Bagots Woods
and Abbots Bromley down the Blythe, to a point on the Trent Valley
Railway, near Lichfield, communicating there with one of the pro-
posed lines front Dudley and Walsall.
A glance at the map will show that this will be the most direct
line for the London and Manchester traffic; uniting those two great
termini by the shortest practicable route in connexion with existing
railways. It will also completely accommodate the local traffic and
manufactures, and open several extensive coal fields and some thou-
sand acres of wood land far the supply of Manchester, the Potteries,
and other great marts of the kingdom. Together, too, with the pro-
posed line from Derby to Crewe, it wilrafferd a transit from the
Eastern Counties and Derby to Manchester, and give every accom-
modation to the Potteries.
This line is, in its principal features, much the same asthat already
approved of by the Board of Trade, and partially abandoned by the
Churnet Valley Company—will be scarcely 47 miles in length, and
passing through the centre of the district, does not interfere with the
Grand Junction, or any other existing railway. It is material to re-
mark, that it is even more direct than the Churnet Valley as formerly
projected to Tamworth, and is free from the formidable opposition of
the landed interest, and the engineering difficulties consequent on the
route by Rocester and Marchington. It must be observed also that
it is the only railway which has been brought forward by, and is
under the control of, the landowners and manufacturers of theghumet
and Blythe Valley districts.
The co-operation of most of the principal landowners, from near
Uttoxeter to near Lichfield, having been obtained, and there being
no competing lines projected through that district, this portion of the
line may be considered as secure.

This important line of railway is forty-two miles in length ; will
commence at the railway station of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wol-
verhampton Railway at Kidderminster, and will proceed from thence
by way of Tenbury and Leominster to Hereford, where it will join the
Hereford and Monmouth, and all the other lines of railway which
converge from Hereford, and run into the West of England, and the
mmensely populous coal, iron, and copper districts of South Wales,
and the important districts of Central Wales.
The intended railway will, by means of its connexion with the
Derbyshire, Worcestershire, and Staffordshire Junction, and that
portion of the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton which runs
from Dudley to Kidderminster, complete the great chain of railway
communication between the clothing districts of Yorkshire;the coal
and iron ore districts of Derbyshire and Staffordshire, and the large
mineral districts of South Wales. At Tenbury it . will form a junc-
tion with the Worcester rand Porthdynllaen intended railway, and
will be the only means of enabling Birmingham, Wolverhampton,
Wednesbury, Walsall, Coventry, Dudley, Stourbridge, and the other
surrounding towns to avail themselves of the great outlet from Eng-
land to Ireland by means of Porthdynllaen, the future outport for

SOUTH-EASTERN RAILWAY.
The Directors think it desirable to state that they sometime
since instructed Mr. Stephenson to prepare for Parliament in the
next session a complete system for supplying railway communi-
cation with the whole of Kent. It is proposed to provide direct lines to
Tunbridge, Maidstone, Gravesend, Rochester, Chatham, Faversham,
Canterbury, and Dover. The surveys have been for some weeks in
progress, and the whole scheme will be very shortly in a complete
state. JOHN KIRKLAND, Chairman.

It will likewise form the nearest route to the north of England,
Manchester, and Liverpool from South Wales, and be a direct line
from the centre of Wales into the Midland Counties. Thus the coals
and other minerals, and the exclusive and constantly increasing iron-
works of Staffordshire, Worcestershire, and Derbyshire, the manu-
factures of Lancashire and Yorkshire, the saltworks of Cheshire and
Worcestershire, and the agricultural produce of Wales, Hereford-
shire, South Shropshire, will have a direct and cheap transit.
This railway is essential to complete the direct East and West
traffic. The traffic of the populous districts embraced by the under-
taking will afford sufficient remuneration to the Shareholders, and a
vast augmentation of revenue which will arise from the through traf-
fic, will make the stock of the Company produce nine per cent.
So convinced was an important Railway Company of the great
traffic which would run upon this line, that they bought up the pro-
moters of a similar undertaking at a considerable expense.
The line is free from engineering difficulties, and gradients highly
favourable. The Directors reserve the power of adopting the atmo-
sperie principle and wide gauge, if approved of. The preference will
be given in the allotment of Shares to persons locally interested in
the line, and no Shares will be approptiated except to persons who
shall give satisfactory references. •

Eastern lines of railway, as well as with Oxford and the South.
The main line will commence from the London and Birmingham
Railway, near Harrow, and passim; to the north of Uxbridge, will
proceed up the Valley by Chalfont, near Amersham and Chesham to
Missenden and Wendover, and thence to Aylesbury; from which
place it will extend to Buckingham, and passing near Winslow, and
approaching Brackley, will terminate by a Junction with the proposed
Warwickshire and London Railway, near Banbury.
In addition to the line above described, it is intended also to con-
struct a Railway from the central station of the London and Bir-
mingham Railway at Wolverton to Buckingham, and thence through
Bicester to Oxford ; and in connexion with the line here proposed,
the Bedford, and London and Birmingham Company, intend to make
a connecting line between Bedford and Wolverton.
The proposed rnickingham and London and Birmingham Railway
Company (for the construction of a line from Wolverton to Bicester)
is amalgamated with this Company.
Accurate surveys of the country have been taken by Mr. Robert
Stephenson, and it has been asccrtalagd that no engineering dillizulty
-of importance presents itself.
The undertaking has already received the sanction and support of
a very large proportion of the Nobility, Gentry, and Proprietors of
land through or near whose property it is intended to pass.
It is proposed that these lines should be made with the co-operation,
and under the direction and superintendence of the London and
Itiriningliam Railway Company ; under a lease, in perpetuity, at
four per cent. per annum on the outlay, with a conditional arrange-
ment ns to the surplus profits.
It is intended to offer the shares in such proportion as the amount
of capital will allow of, to the holders of shares in the London,
Worcester and South Staffordshire Railway Company, subject to the
approbation 4.f the Committee of Management, with the exception
of such as may be required for parties having local interests.

This line of railway, which is about sixty-five miles in length, is
intended to commence at Uttoxeter (the terminus of the proposed
Derbyshire, Staffordshire, and Worcestershire Junction Railway) and
to proceed to Sheffield and Huddersfield. It will form a direct com-
munication between two of the most import Ant manufacturing and
mining districts in England, viz., South Staffordshire and Sheffield,
and Rotherham in Yorkshire ; the South Staffordshire portion in-
cluding Dudley, Tipton, Walsall, Bilston, Wednesbury, and Wolver-
iminpton.
This line will also open a direct railway communication between
Leeds, Huddersfield, and the West Riding of Yorkshire and Kidder-
minster, Worcestershire, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Bristol, Taunton,
and E,Afer, and with Ludlow, Leominster, Hereford, Brecon, Car-
diff, Neath, Swansea, Llanclly, Caennarthen, Milford Haven, Fish-
guard, Aterystwith, and with Porthdynnaen, the future outport for
Ireland. And also the most direct communication between Leeds
and Southampton.
The line will pass nearly along the Uttoxeter and Caldon Canal to a
point near Prestwood, in case the canal be purchased by the pro-
moters of this undertaking. It will proceed through Ellaston and
Mayfield to Ashbourn. thence near Dovedale, Buxton, and Chapel,
en-la-Frith, Woodhead and Holmfirth to Huddersfield, where it will
join tie Huddersfield and Leeds Railw
ay, and so to Thirsk. It will
open new mines, in addition tA those already in work, of lead, coal,

A survey of the country has been made, and the Committee are.
enabled to state that the report of the engineers is highly satisfactory,
The minute and careful estimates of the traffic which have al-
ready been made, show a very large return on the amount of capital
necessary for the undertaking; .and as the line will be constructed
and worked under the management of the Committee of this Com-
pany, a material saving in the ordinary expenses will be effected.
The capital to be raised for this purpose will be 2;0,0001., which
will be divided into 10,000 shares of 25/. each.
Prospectuses and forms of application for shares may be had at
the Office of the Company, 63, Moorgate-street, where applications
will be received, addressed to the Secretary. In the allotment of the
shares, a preference will be given to approved scripholders in the
