anticipated, the price of coals at Settle and
its neighbourhood now varying from 20s. to 229. per ton,
white by means of the Railway coals of the best quality
may he supplied to Settle and the northern district of the
West-Riding of Yorkshire and Lancashire in any quan-
tity at from 10s. to 12s. per ton.
The want of direct means of communica
e Ports in the N- h

between
orth of England and thedion towns of Li-
verpool, Preston, Fleetwood, and Manchester, has been
long felt ; the importance also of a system of easy railway
communication around Manchester, extended to a much
larger radius than at present is occupied by any lines
towards the North, has been fully explained by the Board
of Trade, as affording a greater choice of sites for the
erection of mills and factories.
The important local elements of traffic in slate, lead,
ironstone, freestone, and lime, which will be derived from
tie immediate vicinity of Wensleydale and Swaledale,
and the other great mineral valleys along the line, are
sufficiently obvious to all who are acquainted with the
district, independent of the traffic in cattle and agricul-
tural produce from Durham, Darlington, Richmond,
Settle, arid other grazing districts, which is now very
considerable. It is believed that these sources of profit,
together with the through traffic already alluded to, will
yield a most ample return on the proposed capital.
A preliminary survey has been taken of the line, and
the sections are nearly completed. The length of the
line between Preston and Richmond will be from seventy
to seventy-five miles; and as no peculiar engineering dif-
ficulties exist, the capital determined to be raised has
been estimated to be more than sufficient for the comple-
tion of the works.
The liability of each Shareholder will be restricted by
Act of Parliament to the amount of his subscription, and
power will be applied for in the Bill to allow interest at
£1 per cent per annum on all calls from the passing of
the Act until the opening of the line.
Arrangements have been made with existing railway
companies now in connexion with this undertaking, by
which a portion of the capital will be required to be re-
served for them. Further arrangements are pending with
other companies ; the Provisional Committee, therefore,
reserve to themselves the right of making such extensions
of this project and of increasing the capital for carrying
out any such extensions as they may consider advantage-
ous, with the view of forming a comprehensive system of
railway communication from the Northern and Eastern
coast with Liverpool and Manchester and the manufac-
turing districts generally.
Applications for shares must be made to the Solicitors,
of whom also Prospectuses may be had, and should be
made in the annexed form, accompanied by a reference to
some member of the Provisional Committee, one of the
Solicitors, or a Banker. Applications from persons lo-
cally interested will have a preference.

The distinction which Aberystwith has obtained as a
watering-place will now be consideradly a nhanced. The
principal part of that splendid and lovely scenery for which
Wales is so justly celebrated, and which has attracted so
large a number of visitors almost from time immemorial,
will be found in the immediate vicinity of this linc.
The surveys satisfactorily wove that the gradients of
the line will be easy, and the expenses of construction
unusually low. The Directors have every reason to anti-
cipate that a return of from 10 to 12 per cent. may be ex-
pected. The sanction and support of the landholders and
others locally interested have been largely conceded.
In addition to the foregoing important objects, the plan
of this company comprises one of great national interest,
namely, the improving the port of Aberystwith, and the
formation of a hat beur of refuge for St. George's Chan-
nel. This subject has long been felt to be of great and
vital importance by shipowners and nautical men in gene-
ral ; it is also known that the question of establishing har-
bours of refuge has for sonic time past occupied the consi-
deration of Her Majesty's Government, and great assist-
ance and support is anticipated from the Admiralty. The
coast immediately contiguous to Aberystwith presents
great facilities for the accomplishment of this design,
Woich will be carried out at a comparatively moderate ex-
pense.
Arrangemenss are now in progress (which it is intended
shortly to announce) fora convenient communication, not
only with Worcester, but also for the accommodation of
the Golden Valley district, Peterchurch, &c.
Applications for Shares may be made (in the form an-
nexed) to the Solicitors, Mr. G. P. HILL, 21 A, Soho-

THE proposal of the lines of the London, Worcester,
and South Staffordshire Railway through the district
to the W(st of London and Birmingham Railway, has
called for the revival of a line in connection with the Lon-
don and Birmingham and Midland Railways, from the
point of junction between those lines at Hampden-in-
Arden to Warwick and Leamington, for which plans and
sections were deposited by the Birmingham and Derby
Railway Company (now united with the Midland Com-
pany) in 1841 and 1842, with a continuAtion of such line
from Warwick and Leamington to join the London, Wor-
cester, and South Staffordshire Railway, the necessity for
which was specially referred to in the prospectus of that
undertaking, issued last autumn. This junction will be
effected by two lines—one to the neighbourhood of South.
am, and the other following the Valley of the Avon till it
joins the Stratford and Moreton Railway, near Stratford-
upon-Avon, which crosses the London and Worcester
line. To complete the communication with Cheltenham
a branch will be made out of the London and Worcester
line from Evesham to Ashchurch, on the Birmingham
and Gloucester line.
These objects are considered of so much importance by
the local interests, that their full support has been ob-
tained for carrying them into effect.
The report of the Board of Trade in favour of the Lon-
don and Worcester line states so fully the peculiar advan-
tages of that scheme that it is unnecessary to repeat them
here. The reasons there given for the adoption of that
measure apply, in a great degree, in favour of the present
proposal, as compared with any rival scheme, and the
lines now proposed are so connected with the London,
Worcester, and South Staffordshire scheme, and with the
system of railway communication which the Board of
Trade have recommended in their report, that the success
of that scheme may be considered to render certain the
badoption of
the the present project. Allasion may, however, .
mad to great importance of the junction at am-
ton, in connection with the Trent and Churnet (Valley
line, by means of which a direct and uninterrupted com-
munication will be established with Lancashire and the
North.
The London and Birmingham, Midland. and London
and Worcester Companies unite in co-operation with the
local interests, to ensure the most effectual completion of
the objects in view.
A guarantee will be proposed by the above-mentioned
Companies, and a due proportion of the shares will be re-
served for local interests.
Careful surveys of the whole of the country have been
made under the direction of Air. Robert Stephenson. and
application will be made to Parliament for an act in the
next session.
The applications for Shares having already exceeded the
number for allotment, no further applications can be re- 1
ceived.

Wales Railway Company, and I do hereby undertake to
accept the same, or any less number you may allot to me,
and to pay the deposit of £ per share, and all future calls
thereon, and to sign the Parliamentary Contract and Sub-
scribers' Agreement when required.
