THIS important National Undertaking was brought
forward in the Autumn of Llst7Year, and was sus-
pended from want of sufficient time to comply with the
Standing Ordersof the Houses of Parliament; but, during
the period that it existed, a very large number of Shares
from Influential-Persons were applied for, and it received
'eminent Public %Support.
It will commence at King's Cross, near the North end
of Gray's Inn-road, and pass round Muswell Hill, through
or adjacent to ,Friern Barnet, Chipping Barnet, St. Al-
;ban's, Luton, Silsoe, Ampthill, Bedford, Wellingborough,
Kettering, Market Harborough, Leicester, Ashby-de-la-
.Zouch, Burton, ,Uttoxeter, Cheadle, Leek, Maccle,field,
and Stockport, to Manchester, with a Branch frona:the
Line between Cheadle and Uttoxeter, through Stoke and
.the Staffordshire Potteries to Crewe.
It is plannedmith a view to obtain a Grand Trunk Line
,between the most important termini in the Empire.
Manchester, the centre of the great Manufacturing
„District, comprising the Towns of Bury, Bolton, Ruch-
dale, Ashton..Oldham, Macclesfield, Stockport, &c., and
a.rnass of population, exceeding a-Million, actively engaged
an the pursuits of Manufacturing industry, will benefit by
every reduction of distance between itself and the Metro-
polis,. and requires a Direct, Communication, not a route
made up of circuitous segments• of various undertakings
already overworked, with a patch of new Railway between,
but by one continuous Railway.
Public Opinion, the Sentiments of Eminent Statesmen

and Engintersrand the Wants of the Commercial World,
have for some.tinle pointed out the necessity of a Direct
Independent Line.

Tins is not ail. Looking to themap of England, it will
be perceived, that the nearest route to Edinburgh is
through the very•C.entr•e of the Kingdom, by Manches-
ter; and, from the obstructions of the Firths of the Forth
acid Tay, Carlisle and Manchester must necessarily be
points in the intercommunicaii .n between London and
Glasgow, and the North and North-east of Scotland.
Whenever the Nor.thr rn Railways :ace complete, a very
great Fassr-nger Traffic, as well as the Goods at present
brought by Sea to Liverpool from Glasgow, will be added
to the present ;mount, and the necessity of greater expe-
dition, certain►y, and accommodation will be felt to be
more pressing.

if, then, From various causes, such as the continous
increasing traffic on the old lint s—the. Junction of many
new Railways pujected and in formation—the approach-
ing completion of the Scottish and Northern Lines—the
progression of Railway Communicatioo in Ireland, new
and immense sources of traffic will be necessarily poured
in on lines indirect and inadequate to general accommo-
dation ; there can be no abjection on Public grounds to
the construfion of a Direct Line between London and
Manchester. On the contrary, every reason for its ener-
getic support. _ _

From a point in the Tean Valley, near Cheadle, it is
intended to carry a Branch Railway through the Stafford-
shire Potteries to Crewe, and make this Railway the best
Communication, not only between London and Manches-
ter, but also between London and Liverpool.
The distance, under 177 Miles, will be accomplished in
about Three and a Hall Hours, and no exertion will be
f pared to complete the journey in the shortest possible
time.

This Line will therefore be completely independent of
other Lines, making, made, or to be made, and the delay
and inconvenience attendant on stoppages—the caprices
of Rival Companies, &c., will be thus avoided.

It will be
