This railway is projected to form a direct communication between
Brighton and Tonbridge Wells. It will commence at a point of
junction with the Brighton and Lewes Railway at the town of
Lewes, and proceeding by the Valley of the Ouse, pass by ITckfield
and Rotherfield, thence following the valley to Groombridge, proceed
to Tonbridge Wells, and there form a junction with the Tonbridge
Wells branch of the South-Eastern Railway.
The length of the line will be about twenty-two miles. The neces-
sity and advantages of this line of railway are self-evident—it will
connect Brighton immediately with the populous and fashionable
neighbonrhood of Tonbridge Wells, and more inediately it will con-
nect Southampton, Portsmouth, Chichester, and the ports of the
western coast of Sussex, with the important towns of Maidstone,
Chatham, Rochester, Canterbury, and Dover; thus effecting the
greatly desired object of the shortest and most rapid communication
between Dover and Southampton. The internal communication
between Kent and Sussex w,ll be thus rendered complete.

The following towns and populous villages are in constant trading
communication with Lewes and Brighton, and will be accommodated
by this line :—Barcombe, Ringmer, Isfield, Little Horsted, Uckfleld
Maresfield, Frampfield, East Iloathly, Mayfield, Withyham,Wadhurst,
Newhaven, and Harbour, Waldron, Fletching, Buxted, Rotherfield,
Lamberhurst, Frant, Ticehurst, Groombridge, Hartfleld, Ashurst.
The existing local traffic will thus be aluno sufficient to prove
highly remunerative, exclusive of the great passenger and goods
traffic that must of necessity flow Into this course as soon as the ne-
cessary accommodation is afforded. Detailed traffic tables are in
course of preparation. Tho preliminary surveys have been com-
pleted, and no difficulties, engineering or otherwise, present them-
aelyes, but, on the contrary, this railway will be of facile construc-
tion, and easy gradients
The landowners generally aro favourable to this line, to which

they have pledged their support.
The usual power will be taken in the Act of Parliament to anew
interest at the rate of 4 per cent. on all paid-up calls from tke passing
of the Act until the completion of the line, and the liabLity of the
shareholders will be limited to the amount of the subscription.
Until an Act of Parliament shall be obtained, the affairs of this
Company will be under the control of the Committee of Management
for the time being, to whom power is given to allot the shares, and
to apply the funds of the Company in payment of all the expenses
incured in its formation, and in the preparation of the plans and
sections to Le submitted to Parliament.
Power will be applied for in the Act, and in the meantime is hereby
" •

given to the Committee of Management, as above, to raise any ad-
ditional capital, to abandon any part of the line, to make branch
lines, or enter into any arrangements with any other company or
companies, and also to nominate the first Directors of he Company.
Applications for copies of the prospectus and shares, in the usual
farm, may be made to the promoter, William Hallett, Esq., Brighton;
to W. B. James, Esq., London; to W. P. Kell, Esq., Lewes ; to
Robert Foreman, Esq., Tonbridge Wells ; end to F. H. Nalder, Esq.,

This railway will commence at the station of the Monmouth and
Hereford and Worcester and South Wales Junction at Noss, pro-
ceeding through a rich agricultural district, now devoid of railway
accommodation, to Ahergavenny, and ftom thence by Llanelly,
Nant-y-Glo, Tredegar, Ehbw 'Vale Rumney, and Dowlais to Merthyr
Tydvil, at which place it will join the Taff Vale Railway. The dis-
tance will not exceed 41) miles.
On reference to the map it will be seen that this line, in conjunc-
tion with the proposed Worcester and South Wales Junction, via
Ledbury, Malvern, and Ross, will perfect a continuous and direct
communication from Merthyr Tydvil to London, Gloucester, Bir-
mingham, South Staffordshire, and the north.
The population of Merthyr, and the surrounding mineral districts
exceeds 120,000,•and this line will place it in direct connexion with
the agricultural counties of Monmouth, Hereford, and Worcester.
The line will be laid down so as to render the greatest accommo-
dation to the principal ironworks iu the district through which it
will pass, and a saving of ten miles over any other line will be
effected between Merthyr and Worcester, and other places north
and east of that city.
Arrangements are in progress with the Worcester and South Wales
Junction Railway Company, for the mutual advantage of both
Companies.
Applicants for shares who are personally known to members of
the Provisional Committee, are requested to refer to one of such
Committee ; all other applicant. will be required to give a reference
