The advantages of railway communication bath to the country through which it passes and to the projectors, when prudently undertaken and carried out, are too well known and appreciated to need any arguments in its favour. This Railway will be 25. miles in length, and is intended to connect. the important towns of Hastings (including St. Leonardo), Rye, and Tenterden, with the South-Eastern Railway at Headcorn, and the forms required by the Standing Orders, preparatory to applying for an Act having been com plied with, it is intended to go to Parliament in the ensuing session for the necessary powers to carry the undertaking into effect. . _ _ _ the POPULAR LECTURES whieh will be delivered during the Week is suspended in the Hall of Manufactures. Hollo way's original CRAYON DRAWINGS from RAPHAEL'S CARTOONS, numerous MODELS in MOTION, DIVER and DIVING BELL. Conductor of tho Band, T. Wallis, Mus. Doe. A single line of raffle will be quite sufficient for lho antici pated traffic of the proposed railway, and Mr. Errington, on behalf of Mr. Locke, having examined the plans and sections, has estimated the expense of constructing a single line, in cluding bridges for a double line, and stations and sidings, at 345,000/. The Provisional Committee, from their knowledge of the district, and from the best information they can obtain, estimate the cost of land and compensation, Parliamentary ex penses. &c., at 55,0001., making a total capital of 400,0001., which. they feel confident will be amply sufficient for the con struction of the line. The Committee have made careful inquiries from the most authentic sources, namely, the proprietors of coaches and other conveyances on 'the line, the result of which is given in the traffic table annexed to the prospectus, showing a traffic of 7371. per week, exclusive of a considerable amount of private traffic, the returns of which cannot be ascertained. This traffic, according to the computation allowed by Par liamentary Committee as the result of the increased facilities of railway communication, and which is below the average, as shown by experience, would make the receipts on the pro posed railway amount to 1,4741. per week, making a gross annual income of £76,648 From which, deduct for working expenses 40 per cent 30,660 Leaving a net income of £45,983 or upwards of 11 per cent. on the estimated outlay. The Committee have the satisfaction to state that they have entered into an arrangement with t he Directors of the South Eastern Company, subject to the approbation of their Proprie tors, by which that Company will engage at any time within five years from its opening to take a lease of the Hastings line for 21 years, at such a rent as shall guarantee to the Proprietors 4 per cent. per annum on the cost of its construction to the ex tent of the estimate, with a moiety of the net surplus profits beyond the rental, thus giving to the Proprietors of this under taking the opportunity of working the contemplated line them selves fur five years, with the option, should it be deemed more advantageous at any time within that period, of requiring the South Eastern Company to - take a lease for 21 years, at a rental securing to the Proprietors a certain fair return for their ca pital with a proportion of the surplus benefits likely to arise from union management and a consequent reduction of expenses. The Committee have looked carefully through the last census and find that the population in the immediate neighbourhood of the proposed line amounts to upwards of 60,000. And upon examining the returns made .at the respective Custom Houses of Hastings, Rye, and Shoreham, the Committee find that the present exports from Hastings and Rye, exceed those of Shoreham, without allowing for any increase, which will un questionably be caused 'by the intended railway. Four months' notice will be given of all Calls, and not more than 21. 10s. per share, will be called for at one time. Power will be applied fur in the Act, to allow interest on the Deposits and paid up Calls, at the rate of 41. per cent. per annum. Applications for Shares, to be made to Messrs.

FOR STOPPING DECAYED TEETH. MR. THOMAS'S SUCCEDANEUM, Price 4s. Cd. Patronised by her Majesty, his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent. This valuable SOCCEDANEUM for STOPPING DE CAYED TEETH, however large the cavity is far superior to anything ever before used, as it is placed in the tooth in a soft state, without any pressure or pain, and in a short time becomes as hard as the enamel, and will remain firm in the tooth for many years, rendering extraction unnecessary. It arrests all further progress of decay, and renders them again useful in mastication. Prepared only by Mr. Thomas, Surgeon-Dentist, 68, Ber ners-street, Oxford-street. Price 4s. 6d., and will be sent free by post to any part of the kingdom. Mr. Thomas continues to supply the loss of teeth without springs or wires, and has introduced an entirely NEW DE SCRIPTION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, which will be found very superior to all others, as they will never decay, nor become discoloured, and their perfect resemblance to nature defies detection even by the closest observer. This method does not require the extraction of any teeth or roots, or any painful operation whatever. The charges will be found much less than most Dentists.

The subscription is now placed on so moderate a scale as to e no object of consideration, in proportion to the conveniences „ffered, which are set forth in the above Prospectus ; and the Board are of opinion, that without interfering with any of the existing establishments appropriated to specific branches of rade, these conveniences may be found available by a very large body of persons in the City of London—by parties visiting ondon occasionally on mercantile affairs—and by gentlemen from the Continent and other foreign ports. GEORGE LARPENT, Chairman. • JOHN CATTLEY, Deputy Chairman. N. B. A Coffee-room is now open for the accommodation of the subscribers. which the worlehas evidently been got up cannot but recommend it to very extensive public patronage. A considerable quantity of matter not contained in its predec ssors has been added to this publi cation, and the whole is neatly and cleverly printed." Morning Post, December 9, 1843.—" The new edition of the Post Office London Directory' 'for the ensuing year has just been com pleted, being the 45th annual publication. It contains the names of a vast number of new. people engaged in commerce and trade of every description. No relaxation appears to have taken place in the efforts ofthe proprietors to render this a most useful and inaispen sibh,, volume, The amMgam ition of the nobility, gentry, merchants, and traders in the Street Directory' is a most excellent plan, and the Law Courts and Parliamentary divisions have been corrected up to-the most recent possible date; the latter, epecially, are brought down lo a perio t as recent as the Salisbury election. The Postal Directory' contains the latest regulations, and appears to have been arranged in a form at once comprehensive and easy of reference." Morning Herald, December 6. 1843 This Directory may be considered a ne plus ultra in its way. Like Aaron's rod when changed into a serpent, it has swallowed up all that resembled it, its principal antagonist, the Directory of Robson, having officially suc cumbed to its superior size and enlarged c intents. When we men tion thit it contains nearly : , ,000 closely printed pages of reference to every conceivable subject that can of the necessities of the London resident or visitor, we _have only indicated a small part of its value, which, to be properly air, reciated, must be examined with more minuteness -than we have space to detail. To one new feature we we ir ay i however, iirect attention—viz., to that part which contains the Postal Directory,' where a digest will be found, compiled from the in at authentic sr urces, of the recant treaties with foreign Powers. The list entitled Universal Rates' of Postage' is a most successful attempt to produce th, m in a rorm at once comprehensive and easy of ri ference. Kelly's Directory is, indeed, not only the largest that we have ever seen, but, without question, the most perfect.' Morning Advertiser, December 8, 81.1 Ihe 45th annual pub lication of (his most useful work h s just appeared, and, having made a careful examination of its contents, we feel it to be an act of justice to the proprietor to say that the statement made in the preface as to the great exertions wh-ch have been made to render the edi tion for 1814 worthy of the largest commercial city in the world, is fully borne out. Great additions hare been made in the present edition as compared with its in mediate predecessor, albeit the latter itself was on so vast a scale. The inc i ease applies chiefly to the Street,' ' Commercial,' 'Trades," Law,' and Court' Directories. It would be difficult, indeed, to give an idea of the gigantic propor tions now a sumed by the Directory, and, as for the accuracy with with which it is compiled, all we can say is, that, after testing it, as already described, we have got been able to discover one single iris. take_ Every information passible connected with a work of this nature, will be found in it. It is accompanied by an admirable map of London...* • Weekly Dispatch, December 10, 1.943.--•• The excellent manner in which, fur years past, this Directory has been conducted, has at length entirely superseded its contemporary, Robson's London Di rectory,' but although the managers have no competitor to stimu late their exertions for superiority, they have not ceased to devote their best exer' ions to justify the patronage they have received, and in the number just published for the forthcoming year, we find that the Street Directory' is largely increased, and that it has an en tirely new feature—viz , tables of the universal rates of postage, compiled from official sources, comprehending an easy reference of the postal arrangements contained in the treaties with foreign Powers. This, and other information which the work contains, could only be obtained by those who possess the same advantages as the gentlemen who manage the' Post-office Directory,' and so long as they continue to devote the same care and attention to the work that they have hitherto done, their Lbours will be appreciated and rewarded by the pablie." Globe, December '7, I'43.—"The present handsome volume, to which a large Plan of London is prefixed, and which unites the characters of a City and Court Directory, must be acknowledged to be worthy, in the comprehensivene• s of-. its contents, of the greatest centre of wealth and commerce in the world. It is stated in the preface that 40,000 names appear in this volume, which either have not been in print at all, or not at the same addresses ; and that the 'Street Directory,' which in the edition of 1843 was comprised in 366, in the present volume extends to 466 pages. The Postal t ;irectory' furnishes new tables of rates of postage, in con formity with the treaties lately concluded with foreign Powers. On the whole, the volume is the most complete collection of local infor. mation that ever before was adapted to waists so enormous in local range." Britannia, December 9,1343.- 1 ' This wonsterfui volume—for truly wonderful it is in every respect—it this year augmented to near 2,0(0 pages, and, what we do not always find to be the case, its value is in. creased in greater proportion than its bulk. 7he merit and use fulness of any work of this kind depend very greatly on the corn ; leteness of its details, and on its comprising all the information which the merchant, trader, or any other person engaged in business in London can reasonably expect to find ; and, by extensive addi tions, and the most laborious attention to minute de'ails, this Direc tory is now made .o per feet, accurate, and comprehensive, as to leave, as -we imagine, no room for the exercise of further ingenuity in the way of improvement. Every department has been so enlarged as to render it certain that the required information will be found, and the system of classification is so well digested and carried Into detail, that; large as the volume i', any single name, or any item of Intelligence, embodied in its multifarious contents, may be found without an instant's loss of time. Another merit is, that the information required is never given imperfect. If, for instance, you look for the name of any banker in the United Kingdom, you will not only find it with the proper address, but also with the house added with which it has connections in London. So in every other d partment ; you miss nothing you want, and find much you could not reasonably expect. Among the judicious im provements of this year are the addition of r.:0,000 new names ; a valuable enlargement of the ' Conveyance Directory,' which now comprehends (very kind of transit made up to the latest date, an I the most recent regulations in the Post Office, with tables of the new rates of f -- reign postage. In its complete shape, with an exec'. lent map, a dozen direciorics in one, with every dwelling in the metropolis and suburbs marked, with the nacre of every house. holder recorded, and the occupation of every merchant and trader defined, it presents an example of what may be effected by the union of enterprise, capital, skill, and industry when they have the dissec tion of a city like London for their object, and the certainty of is universal patronage for their reward—the certainty, because in truth the volume is a public b',on, and as necessary to all persons engaged in trade as the commonest implements of the counting-house or the shop, as a day-book, for instance, or an inkstand." Shipping and Mercantile Gazette, December 14, 1813.—" This huge annual has again made its appearance. The volume for 1844 PUBLICATIONS. is larger than the Est. This is caused in part by the late increase of buiLlings is London, but in a greater degree by additions to its use fulness. The Commercial, Court, Street, and other Directories are considerably enlarged, and so classified as to cause no loss of time in reference. .The Parliamentary Directory' embraces the latest changes in the repr sentation—namely, those of the City and Salis bury. The • Postal Directory' furnishes new tables of rates of post age, in conformity with the recent treaties with foreign Powers. Besides the Banking Conveyance, and Official Directories, the coun try inns throughout the provinces are given; indeed, every kind of information that it is possible to expect in such a work is supplied in the Post-office London Directory.' A proof of the importance of this monster book is that it annihilates all rivalry. Its presence, like that of Polypheme, is a signal for the disappearance of all who venture upon the same ground; for we learn from a memorandum attached to the volume that ti!e Proprietors of llobson's London Directory' have declared their Malady to compete with the Post-office volume, and have consequently ceased to publish it. Thus the metropolitan, like the pastoral monster, has flung the fatal rock upon its most formidable rival. We should not forget to name that tho volun - c bet' , •re us is prefaced by a good modern map of London." Ilerapath's Journal, December 9, 1813 —" Of the extraordinary productions of the present day, probably this is the one most calcu lated to excite astonishment. If those ignorant of the mysteries of typography are puzzled to think how it has been accomplished, all accustomed to literary labour, and therefore able to appreciate the difficulties of the task, must be infinitely snore so. The various classifications have been wall considered. Of all the merits of this— it may be fairly termed—National Directory, not the least is the ex treme clearness and simplicity of its arr angemen t ; larger than the largest ordinary work of the kind, it can throughout be consulted with the same facility as a dictionary. This has been of by judicious sub-division appropriate headings—good indices—and strict alphabetical arrangement. The book is divided into twelve subj;:cts, each complete in itself, and yet all more or less connected with each other. We will take the first :—An arrangement of all the inhabitants of every street, square, court, and place within the metropolis, and for some miles round, from Clapham to Ball's-pond, and from Stratford to Not ting-hill. This list is, as, indeed, may be said of very many others in the volume, unique. It Ores the inhabitants of every place, nobility and gentry, merchants and shopkeepers, all at one view. This is a thing that, for obvious rea , ons, no other work has attempted A description of the locality is likewise fur nished, and as in each street those which intersect it are accurately described, the entire, a , well as being a copious Directory, partakes cf the character of a general map. We have heard before of Mr. M'Adam, the colossus of roads; but this may be truly called the colossus of streets. Had such a thing been in existence alter the fire of London, a general and available registry of property would have been at hand, and, should it happen that a copy survive the metropolis it so well describes, the future historian or statistician might ft om its psgcs obtain an excellent idea of the weaqh, extent, and magnificence of the greatest commercial city the world has yet s en, and of the pursuits of its inhabitants. We observe that in the Conveyance Directory several thousand new places have been intro. .isced, with all the newest railway information. The cost of the production of such a book must have been enormous, and to repay the energetic proprietors the sale must be very great indeed. Of this there can, however, be little doubt, as in any place of real business it cannot t e dispensed with without continued inconvenience." Mining Journal, December 9, 1843 This Directory for the forthcoming year, evidences the exercise of indefatigable research in the procuration of an immense mass of valuable in forn ation, and of great talent in its classification and arrangement, so as to be of the utmost use, and readily available. It presents a complete Post-office vade mecum, and abounds in particulars of such univer sal importance as to become an indispensable requis to for the office of the banker, merchant, or tradesman. The accuracy and perfect arrangement of this work are deserving of the highest praise, and the sale must indeed b e cons id era b le to compensate f or the expense and labour entailed on its production." Spectator, December 9, 1541.—" This immense volume still con. Wines adding to its facts and information, though the addition of new features seems to have stopped at present from the exhaustion of subjects. To what extent additional minutia: are added, may be guessed by upwards of s'oo piges more of large and closely-printed matter being given in the present volume." John Bull, December 23, 18(3.—" Nothing less than a Monster Review ' could do complete justice to this' Monster Volume,' which is indeed a remarkable monument of labour, industry, and accuracy. Among an almost indefinite number of other useful things, it com prises a complete Official Directory,' Street Directory,' Com mercial Directory,' Trades Directory,' 'Law Directors,' Court Directory,' Po tal Directory,' City Directory,' ' Conveyance Directory,' Ranking Directory,'&c. In short there is nothing con. nected with this huge metropolis in the way of direction which will not be found here. It is mentioned that 40,000 names appear in this volume, which either have not been in print at all, or not at the same addresses, whsle the Street Directory,' which last year was comprised in 366 pages, now occupies 4:38 pages. In the ' Postal Directory,' the latest regulations have been arranged in the pai t headed' Universal Rates of Postage,' in a form at once comprehen sive and easy of reference."

Not only does its bulk give an idea of the enormous increase of the metropolitan population, but the many improvements in its arrangem , nts are such as to impart the most important facilities in the expeditious dispatch of business. The discontinuance of the practice of making class distinctions in the Street Lists' will be found a great convenience. The information given on the subject of the Post-office arrangements has been greatly simplified, while the Map of London, which accomnanics the work, and which has been prepared expressly for it, extends to a radius in cluding the immense suburbs of the metropolis, with its most recent improvements."

On the Met of January, 1844, will he Published, The FIRST NUMBER of a MONTHLY NEWSPAPER. under the above title, to-be devoted exclusively to a RECORD OF PUBLIC EVENTS. . _ _ . . The object of the WiIiTICYYOSTv7iII be to give, in a carefully compiled and a closely compressed form, an account of all occurrences of interest, taking place in every part of the world, with the dates annexed in chronological order, so as to become a work of reference, and AN EPITOME OF THE HISTORY OF THE TIMES. A number of events occur in every month of which it would be useful to preserve some accurate record ; an object, at present, only to be accomplished by the labour of copying names, dates, and circumstances, or to be effected, hereafter, by the tedious process of referring to the cumbrous p!ges of an ordinary newspaper. It is to remedy this inconvenience that the Monthly Post will be established ; and as its price will only be 2d. per Alonth, or Two Shillings for the Entire Year, it is presumed there is hardly a family, or reader, in the kingdom that will be without so interesting and valuable a register. The Monthly Post will be handsomely printed on superior paper, of uniform size with the Post Magazine, and consist of 24 closely packed columns, in a form for - binding. A stamped edition will be published. Parties in the country, therefore, who may find any difficulty in procuring the Monthly Post Newspaper, through the agency of a bookseller or, newavender, or who may desire to receive it with the least possible delay, may be supplied with their copies, by post, for twelve months, by enclosing to the publisher, a Post-office order for three shillings, or thirty-six postage labels.

The earliest copy of the work has been but one mouth issued, and the following reviews have appeared in the leading metropolitan journals:— Sun, December 7, 1813.—" The present numl - er extends to 1,899 pages, and embraces a more comprehensive detail of the vast ma. chinery which London exhibits than any work of the kind yet pub li,hed. The compiler has confined his labours rather more to sim plifying former articles, with indispensable additions to which circumstances give rise, than to increase the work by new subj ec t s o f reference: in fact, these appear to be nearly exhausted. A slight glance at the index will show what a vast field is included in this multifarious work. V 1 e there find the following headings, and sub joined to these are branches extending to e , Assurance Companies,very department : —C our t of Chancery, Admiralty, Army Agents Banking Directory, C i t y Directory, Commercial an d P ro f ess i onal Directory, Conveyance Directory, Court Directory, Dock Companies, Law Directory, Parliamentary Directory, Postal Directory, Public Companies, Radways, Street Directory, Trades Directory, Universal Rates of Postage, and, in short, ever y s p ecies of information that not only men of business, but persons in all r an k s o f life in the country as well as in London , will find of great serv i ce in their daily transactions. It would be tedious to give specimens of the manner in which this valuable publication has been arran ge d, an d we may therefore say that, as regards the Street Directory,' the Postal Directory, ' and the Conveyance Directory, without including the varied information on almost every commercial transaction, it is the most copious and correct wurk of the kind yet published." The '1 lines, December 7, 1843.—" The London Post Office Di rectors' f r the coming year has just passed through the press, and now forms one of the most useful v..lumes which at this season make their appearance. Useful is a proper term wh en appl i ed to this pub -1 cation, but the term indispensable would be equally appropriate, for to merchants, bankers, and to all persons in business, the book is so important that to be without it is almost to be in a state of ignorance about what it concerns every man commercially connected or em ployed to know. This work, though it has little of the pretence of the " annuals,'•as they are called, has as much real merit as any of them, and though not precisely the book for th e b oudo i r or t h e draw ing7rpom, is.the proper annual for the counting-house and the shop. - It ha§ b'een got up with great industry, great labour, great research, and great expense, and the result is a book of reference for everyday life, and a mass of valuable and accurate information. The volume for 1844, in addition to all the intelligence conveyed in the volumes of this year and past years, contains in that portion of it called the Forel Directory,' a digest of the most recent arrangements in a • _ciliaprehensive form, so arranged t h at an easy reference can be made to whatever iiij - der that head the inquirer may want to find out. This ' is mote pirtfcularly to be seen in the tables of Universal Rates on •Postage.t There are other improvements which wi'l be easily seen if conaultingstlse various divisions of the book, and the whole is so well arranged that to discover what is sought for is a matter very easily accomplished. Accurar and fidelity, the great requisites in a pulsli cation of this kind, are visible throughout, and great credit is due to thecompilers." Morning Chronicle, December 18, 1843 —" This is the 45th year of the publication of this most bulky and most useful of the annuals.
