PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT.

MANCHESTER and BIRMINGHAM and
TRENT VALLEY JUNCTION RAILWAY.

PROVISIONALLY REGISTERED.

A railway through the valley of the Churnet, being the shortest
and best route from Manchester to London, having been defeated on
the Standing Orders during the last session of Parliament, and
afterwards abandoned by its projectors, when at a high premium,
notwithstanding the decided report of the Board of Trade in its
favour, it has been determined by a large number of Shareholders
of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway, in conjunction with
other influential parties, to snake the line. It will com-
mence at the terminus of the Manchester and Birmingham Rail-
way, at 31acclestield, and will proceed by the towns of Leek,
Cheadle, Uttoxeter, and the most eligible point on the Trent Valley
line ; thus, by means of that railway, giving the shortest and best
route from Manchester to London. This line being a natural
extension of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway, the preference
will be given, in the allotment of Shares, to the Proprietors of that
Company, but a fair proportion will be reserved for the landowners
on the line. A more detai:ed Prospectus, with the names of the Pro-
visional Committee, Engineers, and Solicitors, will immediately be
aril, i 1 the mean time, all communications must be ad-
dressed to Messrs. Sale and Worthington, Solicitors, Fountain-street,
Manchester.

The rents are very moderate• and in many instances would admit
of a considerable advance without an injustice to the tenants, the
Tithes are commuted, the Poor Rates low, and the Land Tax upon
the whole' prop riy redeemed.
This Estate presents to capitalists and others desirous of a safe in-
vestment, a most favourable opportunity, as the Laud abounds In
minerals, and the certainty of uniocking the resources of the country
by the projected itailivetys, enhances its prospective value to an in-
cslculable extent.
The Mansion House of Goppa on Lot 1, with a trifling outlay,
would form a suitable residence for a geticman of fortune ; severe:
trout streams pass through and adjoin the property ; and the covers
are notorious for eerie woodcocks.
Every Lot on the Estate has the advantage of having extensive
Sheep Walks attached, and on most of them are Labourers'
Cottages.
The property is situate on both sides of the turnpike road leading
from Dolgelley to Maentwrog and Tanybwlch, and is distant from
the former place twelve miles, and from the latter live miles.
The lots may be viewed on application to the tenants.

WORCESTER MUSICAL
FESTIVAL

WORCESTER, THuRSDAT•—The eoncert last night again
liettofis ' for thil occasion were the Madrigals " Now is the
month of maying" (Morley's, of the date of 1597), and " All
creatures now are merry-minded'? (Benet, 1601). Miss
Rainforth appeared in the utmost perfection in Weber's most
brilliant scena from Oberon, the recitative " Ocean, thou
mighty monster I" and the air, " Still I see thy billows foam-
ing " The accompaniment of the band here was of the finest
order. The Misses Williams and Miss Whinall, in cavatinas,
arias, and ballads, added to their already well-earned laurels.
Herr taudigl again astonished and delighted in Mozart's beau-
tiful air—

" In diesen heil'gen itallen,
Kennt man t ie Rache nicht,"
as also in Hatton's magnificent song, " Revenge," and that from
Dee Frieschute—" Haste. nor lose the favouring hour." Mr.
Yearsali was somewhat weak in the cavatina from the new
nro.re, The Enehantress—“ Oh. what are rank and glory!"
H 4-,b' d lighted us w, h tris beau iful rendering of that delicious
song by eellamy, •• Eulalie," and the other members of the
force were in excellent voice, Machin especially rendering
abundant service to the cau-e of hilarity by the exquisite style
in which he led on the laughter-moving air and chorus from
Handel, " Haste thee, nymph" (see Milton's Allegro); the
picture of " Laughter bolding both his sides" was rendered
a All such emphatic and startiiog truth by the combined force
of singers. • hat a large majority of the audience were compelled
et necessitate to get up an opposition in the shape of a real.
p 1 axle, and unmistakable laugh. long. loud. and general. The
• h le pertormat ces conferred the most intense delight.
ftris morn►ng (Thursday) we found our way to the cathe-
dral. to the firm determination of once more enjoying every
note of that sublime and never-tiring oratorio, " The Mes-
siah."
Mr. Hobbs led off the recitative " Comfort ye my people,"
in his usually chaste and effective style, and Mr. Machin ac•
esmplished the difficult air "But who mi.y abide," in a
manner most satistactory to his warmest admirers. Mr.
Young sang with great purity the air " Behold a virgin."
This was succeeded by the massiv.,, rich. and sonorous voice of
He, r Staudigl, ringing and beautiful even in its lowest depths.
in the recitative " For behold darkness." The chorus, " For
unto us a child was born,' was given with almost electrical
effect, and so perfectly under control was the immense volume
of sound, that pictured to the mind's eye the awful greatness of
the " Wonderful counsellor; the mighty God!" that the
company simultaneously rose and demanded a repetition. In-
deed we have 'lever heard choral effects so excellent and perfect
a' t'io-e of to-day. They do hon ur to all concerned to them.

II LA !am ►as Pt P.n.—After the expenditure of a
con.itterahte sum of money we are informed that this pier
eannet 'ea* be opened to the public. It will be in the re-
c.dlection of our readers that Vlore is a suit in existence be-
tween the Crown and the Corporation of London relative to
the oweer.hip of the soil and of the river. The case wa,
in the Court, and the Corporation having demurred to
the proauciten of their title, and their demurrer having been
overruled no.ice was given some time ago of their intention
to appeal against the decision of Lord Langdale to the House of
Loma. On the notice being given the law officers of the Crown
very properly required that until the decision of the House of
Lords could be obtained the Corporation should abstain
from the exercise of all acts of ownership. This proposition
was objected to, and on the 12th inst. this objection was
argued before Lord Langdale, and the following is the re-
sult of his Lordship's decision :—" The Corporation are not
to erect or license the erection of any additional pier, jetty,
or landing-place, nor to embank or license any embankment,
nor drive piles or give permission to drive piles, or exercise any
other acts of ownership in or over the banks or bed of the
River Thames until after the expiration of a week after pre.
vious communication with the Commissioners of her Majesty's
Woods and Forests, except only for the purpose of repairs or
restoration, or to provide for any sudden emergency, in which
case immediate notice is to he given to the Commissioners."
We understand that at this new pier there is not adequate
frontage, that only one boat can approach the pier at the same
time, and that applications have been made to admit nearly
sixty boats an hour. The decisions of the City authorities for
preventing the accidents to which all steamers are liable have
been so very tardy, that we trust the Government will adopt
some more efficient means to protect the public, and prohibit
the opening of this pier.
THE WHITECHAPEL DISTILLERY CASE.—We are
informed, that although the cause with respect to this affair has
been concluded. and the penalty inflicted on Messrs. Smith
on acct.unt the Fxcise authorities for the imputed irregu-
larities with which they were charged has been paid, yet the
firm arc not permitted to transact the smallest amount of
business, either in the shape of manufacturing operations, or
of the tii4osai of any portion of their stock, until that part of
the establishment appropriated to rectifying purposes has been
entirely removed. We do not vouch for the correctness of
this statement, but we have reason to believe that it is per-
fect y so. It is understand that if the firm think proper to re-
move the stock to the premises of another distiller, the
Exci,r make no objection to its bring permitted, at the
le.outre of the owners, into the stocks of retail dea:ers; but
~e: i,fue t emits to any portion of it to be delivered
from :lie klvli teehai el ptemisss until the conditions before-
rucntioeed shal have been complied with. It is further under-
stood that the firm object to this, on the ground of the immense
expense e st:tend isaremoval, independently of the
iiic,evet,ience of • ueli a p, oceeding, and therefore they are ca.
po,ed to the 'enormou• expense of sustaining the greater por-
ti-n of their extensive estabii-hment until the whole of the
rectifying-house shall be entirely removed.
Tine A ftTLEIEN 11 ELL AT SOUTHAMPTON.—The
operations for boring for this well, which has already attained
a greater depth than any other in the kingdom, have for some
time been suspended. Although the present depth of upwards
of 1,300 feet has been obtained only at a very great outlay, the
present supply,of water is quite deficient for the purposes of the
town. nor does it appear that the hilt in which the bring has
t,,kee place :voitain" any ad. ousts water reservoir. It has been
'-'774 stet; that it the boring lie continued about 200 or 300 feet
il,eper he lower gr-i n 'and. the supply may be found suf-
ficiently ate is. The well is sunk at the top of the hill or
which the race-course is situate, about two miles from
Southampton.
