The Committee take this opportunity of stating that in order to ensure
the completion of a line of railway along the north bank ofthe Thames
to the City, they have determined on extending the embankment
portion of their project from Waterloo-bridge to the City as intimated
in their original prospectus, providoi the Committee do not arrange
with some other party of sufficient railway influence by which this
extension may be effected, and they luve accordingly taken the pre-
caution of registering this addition to the scheme.
The necessity of a central terminus is daily becoming more urgent,
which is evinced by the many schemes which have been brought
before the public for that purpose since the prospectus of this
Company was first published, but with the great accession of
strength the Committee have now obtained by the valuable co-
operation of the several influential railway Directors above-men-
tioned, the Committee feel confident they need fear no opposition.
The allotment of the shares will take place as soon as possible, of
which due notice will be given.—By order
JOHN F. NEALE, Secretary.

" The various positions of Lover, Husband, and Parent, the in-

through the follies and frailties of early indiscretions. To such, among

may be satisfactorily adjusted that admit of no appeal even to the
most confidential friend."—Stafford Gazette.
"Long experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto
neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great bulk of the
medical profession, has enabled the writer to prove that there are
concealed causes of Nervous Debility in existence, where the mere
routine practitioner would never dream of finding them; traceable
to certain habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and fatal
springs of domestic misery, and premature mertaliiy."—Wakefield

Many of the principal merchants and traders in London and Man-
chester, engaged in the trade of those towns, being of opinion—
That it Is of paramount importance to the trade, and to the public,
that they should not continue dependent for communication between
London and Lancashire upon one, and that a circuitous line of rail-
way, already inadequate to the purposes of the existing traffic.
That the immediate formation of a direct line is essential because,
if delayed, it will become more and more difficult, in consequence
of the branch railways which local necessity will originate.
That an independent trunk line is necessary to guard the trade and
commerce of the metropolis and Lancashire against excessive charges,
and the many evils of a rapidly-extending monopoly ; they have,
therefore, established this Company to foxua Marla a Line.
The objects of the Company are—
To form the shortest practicable line.
To traverse it in the shortest possible time, consistently with
safety, by the best motive power, at the cheapest fares, and
at the least possible charge for goods.
Experience has shown, as to railways, that the interest of the pub-
lic and the interests of the proprietors are identical.
That the lowest fares and charges, and the quickest journeys, are
advantageous to both.
That system which has quintupled the number of letters by the
post, the result of celerity and cheapness, must prove equally effica-
cious in the transit of persons and goods.
,The promoters of the present undertaking are, for the most part,
largely Interested in the trade between London and Manchester.
They deem another line essential to the increasing wants of the
great manufacturing and comraerclal interests throughout the whole
distance.

Their own operations will contribute greatly to the traffic of the
intended line, and they are, therefore, deeply interested in its esta-
blishment.

The London promoters of this line, in their ordinary commercial
operations, now pay for the carriage of goods, &c., a sum equal to
four per cent. upon the whole capital ; an amount of traffic which
will pass upon the direct line when completed.
They are convinced that the time has arrived when direct lines to
principal towns have become absolutely necessary, and will yield the
greatest benefit to those interested in them, and to the country at
large.
This line will afford accommodation to many considerable towns,
as yet untouched by any existing line.
It is intended to commence in London as near the centre of busi-
ness as possible.
In its course, the line will approach to and accommodate the fol-
lowing towns—viz., Barnet, St. Albans, Dunstable, Luton, Ampthiil,
Bedford, Wellingborough, Kettering, Market Itarborough, Leicester,
Loughborough, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Burton-on-Trent, lUttoxeter,
Cheadle, Leek, Macclesfleld,Stockport, and Manchester, terminating
in the station of the Manchester and Birmingham Railway.
The present nearest approach to Manchester is by the London and
Birmingham and the Manchester and Birmingham Railways, a dis-
tance of 197 k miles. By the proposed line the distance will be con-
siderably shortened, and will form the nearest route to Carlisle, and
all places north of Manchester. There will be no change of trains,
or removal of luggage from one train to another; ire delay in waiting
for trains from other parts of the country, but the same train will
proceed without loss of time throughout the whole distance.
The atmospheric principle will be publicly tested before the next
session of Parliament, and the Committee will be prepared to adopt
it, if in practice it shall vindicate its claims to superiority.
Applications fo: Shares may be made, addressed to the Provisional
Committee, or to the Solicitors, at the Company's Offices, 48, Moor-
gate-street, London, of whom further particulars may be obtained.

The promoters of what is called " Remington's Line," having,
after the registration of the above-mentioned Company, registered
their project by the same title, varied only by the Introduction of the
word " Independent," and continuing to advertise Messrs. Jones,
Loyd and Co. as their bankers, the Managing Committee, in order to
prevent the contusion and inconvenience which must otherwise take
place, think It right to call public attention to the distinction between
the titles and addresses of the two undertakings, and to the fact that
Messrs. Jones, Loyd and Co. are the bankers to this Company, as
will appear by the following letter.

Sir—We beg through you to acknowledge the communication we
have this day received, notifying to us, that at a meeting of the Com-
mittee of Management for forming the Direct London and Manches-
ter Railway, it had been resolved that an account be opened with us
on behalf of the Company. It affords us sincere satisfaction to corn-
mence this connexion with a concern which we believe to be calcu-
lated to promote the interests of the town of Manchester, and which
is brought forward under the sanction of so numerous and respect-
able a body of persons connected with the trade of that groat district.
We shall cause the account to be opened forthwith, in accordance
with the instructions handed to us, and we shall at all times be most
ready to promote the success of the undertaking.
We are, Sir, your very obedient servants,
Edward L. Ogle, Esq. JONES, LOYD and CO.
