This line wrd diverge from the line of the Great Eastern and
Western hallway, near Worcester, and proceeding by Brom-
yard. ;gill end at Leominster. at which point it will unite with the
proposecl lines connecting Hereford and Shrewsbury with North
Wales.

unprovided for by existing arrangements. and this lino is brought

large and most influential body of the landed gentry of the neigh-
bourhood.

The object proposed is to make a direct communication between

been the natural market for the produce of these districts, and to af-
ford the inhabitants tile most direct communication with London, as
compared with other lines, by upwards of3o miles.

tained, and power will be applied for to allow interest at 41. per cent.

The projected undertaking, by proceedhig to the tiro ietrillifi at
Chichester and POrtsitiouth, will extend the facilities of communica-
tion with tile cenAt branches of railways along the south of England,
coniieding Itself with Brighton to the ensturatci, and Southampton
towards the west. By the main line falling into the Brighton hall-
way tlk advantage of two termini in London will be secured—the
one at the Bricklayers' Arms, and the other at London-bridge—the
latter of which, from its proximity to the Custom House, and the
several docks on the Thames, is acknowledged to be the best position
for a London terminus Sir merchandise of all descriptions.
Tile line Of raii*sty intended to be constructed by this Company will
commence at or near the lleditili station 'leaf licigatei On the Lon-
don and Brighton Railway, a distance of 21 miles from Laudon •

ity this course the entire distailte to travel betweendi,titn London and

From Chilgrove a line of seven miles will be ondsirticted, and
which will place Chichester in direct communication with London.
The distance between Chichester and London by this route will be
62 miles, and trains will run direct between London and Chichester.
Inasmuch as the wasting line of railway to Dover branches off
from the London and Brighton llailroati at Reigate, this projected
line will open up a communication by railroad between Portsmouth
and Dover.
From an inspection of the map, it will be seen that the Redhill
station, near Reigate, lies nearly in a direct line between Ports-
-1 mouth and:Chatham, and in purs.iting the line of communication be-
, twcen the last-mentioned naval and military depot, this line win
pass
through or near to the towns of Bletchingley, Godston, Limpstleld,
1 Westerham, SeVen Oaks, Ighthasn, Town Mailing, Wzothani, Off_
ham, Snodiand, Lower Hailing, and Wouldham.
The distance between Chatham and Reigate will involve the
making of 31 miles of railroad, and the line of railroad between
Portsmouth and Chatham will eaten 1 over 82 miles.
To the naval aid military establishments of this kingdom the
construction of this projected line will afford the most important fa-
ditties in the transit of troops, stores, baggage, &e., diminishing
tits tardy course of communication which at present necessarily
exists between Portsmouth and Chatham, at present usually extend-
ing over the space of two days, and placing them in that direct com-
munication with each other which, in two hours, or thereabouts,
will enable the journey between them to bo made.
The formation of a direct line of railway between Portsmouth
and! Chatham will afford the opportunitY of establishing, by an
electric telegraphic, that celerity of communication so important to be
obtained between places of national importance.
The warm support of the principal landowners on the Greater part
of the lino is pledged to this undertaking.
The Provisional Committee abstain from making any special re-
ference to the contemplated profit to result from carrying into effect
this undertaking, feellng convinced that the extent of traffic through
the populous and rich districts over which this line and its branches
are projected to pass is sufficiently known, and Is decisive of the
inutility of all comment in that respect.

At Hastings—Messrs, Smith, Hilda, and Co.
The:object of the Company is to efect a direct communication, by
railway, between Tunbridge Wells and Hastings, and also between
Tunbridge Wells and Brighton.
The Hastings line (about twenty-six miles In length) will cam-
menCe at Tunbridge Wells, and run near Frant, Wadhurst,
Etchingham, Hurst-green, Robertsbridge, Whatlington,
and Battle, having its terminus at the western extremity of
Hastings.

The Brighton line (about twenty-two miles in length) will com-
mence at Tunbridge Wells, and take a direct course to Brighton,
passing near Mayfield, Rotherfield, Mktlaid, Little Horsted, and
Lewes, where it will form a junction with the line, which is nearly
completed, betweess Lewes and Brighton.
The numerous visaors and inhabitants of the fashionable water.
isg7places of Tunbridge-wells, Brighton, and Hastings, will thus
not merely enjoy the means of -rapid communication with each
other by railway,—an advantage which ought to have been sup-
plied to them before this,—but will also have, respectively, when
the proposed line from London to Tunbridge Is formed, a con-
tinued and direct railway to the metropolis.
The area embraced within these lines of railway is justly re-
markable for the variety and value of its agricultural produce,
being one of the most extensive hop.districts in England, and not
inferior in general fertility to any part of the kingdom; and when
it is considered that the metropolis is the principal, indeed, it may,
almost be said, the exclusive market for its productions, the profits
arising from the conveyance of those productions alone must form,
(independent of passenger traffic,) a very large source of revenue
to the shareholders.

Even from the already developed resources of the extensive,
wealthy, and poimlous districts through which the Company's lines
will run, the most encouraging estimate of results may be justly
entertained, and when the Hastings Dock and Harbour Company
(which has already been provisionally registered) shall have carried
into effect the proposed improvements, the line from that town to
Tunbridge Wells must become one of the moat profitable in Eng_
laud, as it will then be the great highway of continental tourists.
The route from London to Paris, by Hastings and Dieppe, is de-
cidedly the most direct, as well as the most interesting, which a
glance at the map of Europe will satisfactorily shew.
To the towns of Hastings and St. Leonard's, the greatest advan-
tages must accrue front the establishment of a Railway, bringing
them within two hours of the metropolis, and, through it, by the
great lines of which it is the focus, connecting them with every por-
tion cf the country. An immense increase in the number of their
opulent visitors must necessarily be the consequence, the climate
of that part of the coast of Sussex being universally considered
equally salubrious as the most favoured parts of Devon.
The Company have in contemplation the formation of a branch,
from the must convenient point on their Hastings line, to Win-
chelsea and the town and port of Rye, or to connect that line with
the Hastings and Ashford coast line ; either of which objects can
be ca. ried out at a very moderate expense, and must considerably
increase the value of the principal project.
'do the inhabitants of Lewes and Brighton, the advantages to be
dt:rivcd from the Hastings line must be great. It will give in-
creased facilities for the transport of the produce of the districts
through which it passes, and will complete the railway COMMUffi-
ctition between Canterbury, Maidstone, Chatham, Rochester, and
other towns in the county of Kent and Brighton, Chichester,
Portsmouth, Southampton, and other important towns in the
western parts of the country.

The existing traffic in passengers and goods (which mast be
materially increased by the estabishment of railways) are too
well known to require a detailed statement in this prospectus,
and cannot fail to secure to the shareholders a large Interest on
the capital invested.

A preliminary survey of the country has been made, and no
part of it has been found to offer engineering difficulties of more
than ordinary character.

l'he liability of the shareholders will be limited to the amount
of their subscriptions, and in the allotment of shares a preference
will be given to landowners on the respective lines, and other
par:ics locally interested.

Power will be given in the Act to allow interest at 41. per
cent, per annum, on all calls, previous to the opening of the lilies.
The Provisional Committee reserve to themselves the power of
making alterations in the line or branches, and of adopting the
atmospheric principle, if advisable. They are also determined
on giving strict attention to economy in the expenditure of the
capital, and will thereby be enabled to guarantee low charges for
the conveyance of passengers and goads, and there can be no rea.
sonable doubt, that when the traffic is fairly developed, the full
rate of 101. per cent. will be paid, and a surplus left for branch
lines, or of a reduction of tolls.
The strong feeling in favour of a direct line, evinced on the part
of the public is Hastings and surrounding neighbourhood; the
support of the landowners and agriculturists, with the numerous
and strong assurances received in favour of an independent Com-
pany, leave no doubt of the successful issue of an application is
Parliament for an Act next Session.

In order that every attention may be secured to local interests,
arrangements are now being made to add the names of gentlemen
of influence and property in the counties of Kent and Sussex, to
the Provisional Committee.

Application for Shares, with a reference, may be made in the
form annexed, to the Solicitor, or to the Secretary, pro tern., at the
