N.B.—Existing lines give no communication whatever
either to Doncaster or Gainsbro'. The following particu-
lars must also be borne in mind, viz :
As REGARDS DISTANCES: First, that the same advan-
tage over the Sheffield and Lincolnshire (as stated in the
last column) from Sheffield is conferred by the Manches-
ter, Midland, and Grimsby on all places west or north of
Sheffield.
Secondly, that the same advantage as stated from Man-
chester accrues to all places west, northwest, and south-
west of Wortley (a station on the Sheffield and Manches-
ter), including Thorncliffe, Penistone, Chapeltown, Holm-
firth, Huddersfield, Halifax. Bradford, Glossop, Ashton,
Oldham, Todmorden, Liverpool, and the whole of the
manufacturing districts of Lancashire.
Third, that the same advantage as stated from Rother-
ham applies to Wakefield, Normanton, Leeds. York, and
all other places on the Midland line north of Masbrough.
It may also be added that the Manchester, Midland, and
Grimsby Junction gives, by its junction at Doncaster
with Goole and Doncaster, a direct communicution from
Chesterfield and the south, and from Sheffield to Goole,
while the Sheffield and Lincolnshire does not accommo-
date that very important traffic at all.
As REGARDS NUMBER OF MILES: To make and ob-
tain an act, for it is quite clear, from the above table, that
the Sheffield and Lincolnshire stands in a strikingly in:
ferior position.
WITH REFERENCE TO VESTED INTERESTS—a right
Parliament justly regards so much—
First, Rotherham has long enjoyed the advantages of
having one of the best cattle markets in England, there
being frequently as many as 350 fat beasts and 7,000 to
9,000 fat sheep per week, in addition to which there is a
very good corn market. On the other hand, Sheffield has
not a market worth naming, and the effect of the Sheffield
and Lincolnshire Railway being wade would be almost
entirely to annihilate the Rotherham market.

Secondly, if it be desirable (which no one can doubt)
that a railway should, if equally convenient to the public
and profitable to the shareholders, be carried as near as
possible to the estsbii'he.► and accustomed route, then it
is quite clear that the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby
Junction should have the preference, as the coaches, por-
ters', and carriers' carts, &c , from Sh-ffield to G iinsbro'
or Lincoln, invariably run by Rotherham, Maltby, and
so on, being the same line laid out to be pursued by the
Manchester, Midland, ar►d Grimsby.

Fourth, the Sheffirl.3 and Linc,)lnAiire runs parallel for
some distance with the Cht•sterficAki Canal, thereby, in the
event of that act being obtained, involving the probability
of total ruin to that und=rtAking, but which powerful
Company have, to protect therruvtivea, lately brought
forward an adverse Line, running the same course as the
Sheffield and Lincolnshire for halt its entire distance,
viz., the sixteen miles from Gruusbro' to Worksop.
Fifth, some of the most influential landowners in the
district through which it passes are vehemently opposed
to the Sheffield and Lincolnshire, whereas the noblemen
and gentlemen of the largest property on the Manchester,
Midland, and Grimsby Line are warm supporters of it.
COALS are some shillings per ton cheaper at Rotheram
than at Sheffield, which, together with the &honer carriage
by the Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby, must make it
very desireable to the inhabitants of the very important
county of Lincoln that the Sheffield and Lincolnshire
project should succumb to the superior merits of its rival.
As REGARDS THE POPULAR FEELING: It is a noto-
rious fact that, even in Sheffield, the feeling of the
inhabitants (and it has been expressed at public meetings
on more than one occasion) is very decidedly against the
Sheffield and Lincolnshire scheme. We may, therefore,
consider that where "'Tie best known 'tie least liked.'
Tile BOARD OF TRADE have expressed themselves very
decidedly in favour of the Manchester, Midland, and
Grimsby, as compared with the Sheffield and Lincoln-
shire.

However a concealment of facts may be necessary to
bolster up a weak cause, the discerning public cannot
easily be induced to swallow the paragraph (advertised by
authority) in the Sheffield papers a few days ego, whi▪
ch
states, that "there is no residental ground of objection"
to thb Sheffield and Lincolnshire. For a pretty sufficiently
damning reply to that assertion let the report of the oppo-
sition of George Savile Foljarnbe, Esq., and Hutchin-
son, Esq., before the Committee of the House of Com-
mons, be read.
In conclusion, the public may rest assured that the
Manchester, Midland, and Grimsby will go to Parliament
with every prospect of success on its own very superi▪
or
merits, and with that success rendered everything but a
dead certainty in consequence of the very powerful tiny-
port guaranteed, and friendly alliance entered into with
the most highly influential party of the day.
The public are wished to understand that this advertise-
ment is not issued for the purpose of inducing applica-
tions for Shares, as it would be useless to apply, it being
generally known that all the Shares in the Manchester,
Midland, and Grimsby are allotted to highly respectable
parties, except a very small number reserved for land-.
owners on the line solely.

SECRETARY.
Mr. Francis Parker, Rotherham

BANKERS

Sheffield and Rotherham Banking Company, Rotherham
THE object of this Undertaking is to connect the
Sheffield and Manchester, Huddersfield and Sheffield,
Midland, and Great Grimsby Railways—the Ports of Li-
verpool and Birkenhead on the Western, and Great
Grimsby on the Eastern Coast, affording accommodation
to all the important intervening Manufacturing and Agri-
cultural Districts—in fact, to open the shortest and most
direct communication between the Eastern and N 4 esters
Counties of. England. It is proposed io commence at
Woriley and run to the Midland at or near Masbrough,
affording an outlet North and South—and thence forward
to Gainsbrough.
There are abutting on the West end of the Line the
West-Riding of Yorkshire and Lancashire, with a popu.
lation of 2,321,958 —and on the East end Nottingham.
shire and Noah Lincolnshire, with a population of
431,485.

Under any circumstances, the intercourse between two
such masses of population must be great ; but in this case
it is much Leyond the average from the different character
of the country, and the pursuits of the inhabitants at the
two termini—Lancashire and Yorkshire having redundant
supplies of Coal, Ironstone Lime, and Manufactured
Goods of every description,while Nottinghamshire and Lin-
colnshire and the East are dependent on the former Coun-
ties for these productions—and send their large supplies
of Corn and Cent to the Yorkshire and Lancashire
Markets.—The Traffic in Goods and Passengers between
such important and mutually dependent Districts must be
unusually great. _ _

A glance at the Map of England will show that the
proposed Line will be, as nearly as may be, as/mg/Athlone.
A circuitous Line is an evil, and opposed to public policy.
The public suffer by being detained a longer time—by
travelling a longer distance—and by paying a larger fare
than is necessary—and the Proprietors suffer by being
exposed to the risk, or rather to the certainty, of their
property being destroyed at some future period by the com-
petition of a shorter and more direct Line. SIR ROBERT
PREL, in his ptare in Parliament, on the 15th March,
1845, upon this point said—" He would make no reference
to any individual Railway schemes, but he thought they
ought to look forward to the result of mechanical im-
provements as applied to those schemes, and they might
depend upon it (speaking of ultimate results) that the
SHORTEST LINES WOULD BE PREFERRED—(hear, hear).
The tendency of the Improvements which were almost
daily introduced, WAS DECIDEDLY IN FAVOUR OF THE
SHORTEST LINES."

It may also be observed, that the Board of Trade in
their detailed report, in reference to that part of the Line
from Rotherham to Gainsbrough (which was submitted
for consideration as a distinct scheme), state it to be
"DECIDEDLY PREFERABLE to the Sheffield and Lincoln-
shire, or the Sheffield Branch of the London and York."
And that " it affords a better connection, also, with the
important Market Town of Rotherham, and with the
North Midland Railway. AND GIVES AS DIRECT A COM-
MUNICATIoN AS COULD BE DESIRED WITH GAINSBROUGH
AND LINCOLN."

While so favourable an opinion is expressed upon this
portion of the Line, it may also be fairly granted to the
extension from Rotherham to Wortley. yßy the Sheffield
and Nlanchester, and the Sheffield and Rotherham Rail-
ways, the distance from Wortley to Rotherham is
miles, which by the proposed extension will be reduced to
9. That portion of the Line will also open out one of
the best Coal Fields in England, with inexhaustible
supplies of Park Gate and Silkstone Coals—besides the
Green Moor Quarries at Wortley,containing very superior
Stone for paving a,,d building purposes—while at 'lbw ti
cliffe and Chapel Town, there are already most extensive
Iron Works in active operation. At Rotherham and
Masbrough—and in the immediate neighbourhood—there
are large Iron and Steel Works, and other Manufactories,
requiring qualities of Coal and Ironstone, from which at
present they are almost excluded—on account of the
heavy cost of carriage.

It6therham is the great rattle Market of Yorkshire,
and likewise an important Corn Market, and one of the
objects sought to be attained by the promoters of this
undertaking, is the shortest route from the Manufacturing
to the Agricultural districts—and from the Agricultural
to the great Markets of Yorkshire, and the consuming
districts Westward. It will accommodate also the traffic
of the localities through which it passes—and possesses the
peculiar feature of following, as near as possible, the old
route in which the stream of traffic, and especially pas-
sengers, has hitherto been accustomed to flow.
Ihe district between Rotherham and Gainsbrough is
destitute of Coal, and there is no Canal or Railway from
which it can be supplied, excepting by a very circuitous
route—in fact, the supply between Rotherham and Bawtry
is entirely carted along the Turnpike Road. The cele-
brated Grindstones at Wickersley, with an immense
quantity of the finest Freestone, from the far famed
Roche Abbey Quarries might also be sent—the former to
Sheffield, Manchester and Birmingham—and the latter
to every part of the Kingdom, were an easier and cheaper
mode of transit established.
It is needless to remark, that any Line of Railway com-
manding the advantages referred to, and connecting Lan-
cashire and West Yorkshire, with the Trent and the
Humber, must prove a very ample Investment fir Capital
indeed the returns of the existing traffic are highly satis-
factory.

Surveys have been taken, and the Landowners gene-
rally are favourable to the project. The length of the
Line is about 353/4 miles.
There will be a clause in the Act of Parliament, limit-
ing the liability of each shareholder to the amount for
which he may subscribe, and power will be taken to allow
Interest at the rate of 4 per Cent, per annum upon the
paid-up Capital, from the obtaining of the Act until the
completion of the Railway.
By the Subscribers' Agreement, authority will be given
to the E'rovisional Directors to vary or alter the Line, or
to enter into any arrangement which they may think ex-
pedient, previous to applying to Parliament in the ensuing
session,

The Directors congratulate the Shareholders upon their
,very satisfactory position, having secured the valuable co-
operation and assistance or several influential companies.
