strictlylto adhere:—
" As, under arrangements entered into with the Lynn and Ely,

supporting a line of railway from Leominster by this town to unite
with the Great Eastern and Western Railway near the city of Wor-

their schemes ; and that the warmest thanks of this meeting be con-
veyed, through the Chairman, to the Great Easters and Western

By this line of railway it is intended to connect the free port o
Stockton with the manufacturing districts of the West Riding of
Yorkshire and the whole of Lancashire.
f This important object will be attained at a trifling outlay of capital,
and ensure an amply remunerative traffic.
The line will be constructed from or near Stockton-on-Tees, to
or near to Nerthallerton, a distance of only eighteen miles, where it
will form &junction with the Great North of England Railway, which
will be traversed to Think ; and from that place the communication
with Leeds and the other important manufacturing towns will be
completed by a railway already sanctioned by Parliament.
It will be seen, therefore, that the communication by railway be-
tween the free port of the Tees and the town of Leeds will be com-
pleted by the formation of " The Stockton, Northallerton, and Leeds
Railway." The advantages of this undertaking are too numerous
to specify in an advertisement ; but merchants at all acquainted with
the immense export and import trade of the West Riding and of
Lancashire, will at once perceive how important it is to open to that
trade a port which, whilst it is as advantageous as any other in point
of distance, possesses facilities and immunities which none other
can offer.
From the favourable locality of the port of Stockton, there is no
doubt that, with the additional facilities for the importation and
transit of merchandise which this railway will afford, the port will
occupy a leading position amongst those on the Eastern coast of
England.
The project has received very extensive local support ; and almost
every landowner, through whose property the line is intended to pass,
has already signified his assent to the measure.
The line of the country has been surveyed by an engineer of talent
and experience. and, from his report, the work will be finished for
14,0001. a mile ; anti there is no engineering difficulty of any descrip-
tion to encounter.
Applications for Shares, in the subjoined form, may be forwarded
to Messrs. Wilson and Faber, solicitors, Stockton; or to Samuel
Shepherd, Esq., solicitor, itTortindlerton ; up to and including Satur-
day, the Ist day of November next, on which day the list will finally
close, and the allotment be immediately proceeded with.

Leeds Railway.

Mr. Wiliam Barker 1 New-street, Huddersfield.
Messrs. Brook and Freeman

The object of this undertaking is to form a continuous line of rail-
way from Leeds to Liverpool, by extending the lines already made,
er sanctioned by Parliament, from their respective termini at Hud-
dersfield, in Yorkshire, and Bury, for which extension a line of rail-
way only 25 miles in length is requisite. The proposed line will com-
mence at the Huddersfield station, between which place and Leeds.
Parliament has already sanctioned the formation of railways, and
from Huddersfield the proposed line will proceed by way of Hillhouse'
Eirchencliffe, and Lindley, and thence along the valley between
Stainland and Greetland, through Bark'sland, the Yale of Itipponden,
and by Rochdale to Bury, in Lancashire, where it will join the ter-
minus of the Liverpool and Bury line of railway.
In addition to completing a direct communication from Liverpool
to Leeds, Mull, and Goole, by the shortest practicable route, and by
a much smaller outlay of capital, than by any ether proposed line, it
will provide for a large and important manufacturing population,
hitherto without the advantage of railway accommodation, an outlet
to the south by means of the Huddersfield and Sheffield Junction
Railway, and to Manchester and to North and South Lancashire by
the railways above mentioned, and by the Leeds and Manchester
Railway, by a proposed junction therewith at Rochdale.
This line, when completed, will, is addition to the advantages
which it presents as a through line, pass through a succession of val-
leys thickly studded with mills and manufactories, consuming a
large quantity of raw materials and coal, all of which are brought
front a distance, and transmitting to other districts the produce of
their industry, for which purposes a line of railway has become ab-
solutely necessary, and there can be no doubt that an ample return
will be realised for the outlay of capital required.
The distance between Huddersfield and Rochdale by the prevent
line of railway is thirty miles, which by the proposed railway will be
reduced to seventeen miles.
The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the right of enter-
ing into any arrangements with existing railway companies that may
appear desirable. And power will be taken by the Act of Parliament
to allow interest to the shareholders at the rate of 41. per cent. per
annum on the amounts paid on their shares from the respective times
of payment to tie times of opening the railway.
Applications for shares may be addressed, in the subjoined form, to
any of the undermentioned sharebrokors, viz.—Messrs. Hill, Faweett
and Hill, Threadneedle-street, London; Mr. David Kinnear, Edin-
burgh ; Messrs. W. Moore and Co., Messrs. J. Gatlin* and Co.,
Messrs. Wilson and Hellawell, Mr. Thomas Parrett, Mr. Frederick
Turner, Messrs. John Atkinson and Co., Messrs. Tempest and Co.,
