THE CORNECTOR SHIP COMPANY WHITE";

Yesterday afternoon the Connector model shills
which has lately excited melt curiosity among the large
number ot persons who tremens the river in the adieu"
steamboats, made a racy 'weariful voyage (lowa the
Thames and up the Medway to Chatham. We gave MOO
description 4 this carious easel is the Daily Rep a few
weeks ago, when it wee moored at the Holmes of balls-
meet sad -Hungerford-bvidge. It is a model boat, intended
to represeot a class of vessel to be used for the couveyanee
of coal from Newcastle and various other northern
ports--the idea being to link together at lest
three boats, meta/thug cargoes of male, awe 4
which a calculated to hold something like MY
tons, so that the whole vessel would contain something like
I,OOU teas. The great advantage to be obtained is that
while three of the compartnesets are in process of loading
and three nolostring, three' can be on their journey, so
that DO time whatever would be lost. The Comm ~,
hems only a model of the shthe thth are to be built for this
traffic, can give uo oomtnesserkte idea of the molts whish
will be obtained ; but if the larger and loaded compeer
meets of the vessels to be built as be connected sad dim
cothected with the same facility with which the model WI
takes to pieces and put together tu the river Medway yes-
terday, there is no doubt that a complete revolution
will be effected in the mode of moseying coals to the metre-
poll, and that mach of the waste of power which now exists '
will be thud. The Cosseetor bad on baud yesterday, Mr.
!Meow. the inventor, Captain Britton. Captain Maven.
