Lint c vvning a numerously attended public meet-
ing of owners of property sad residents of Hammersmith,Sarum, Kansingtos, Berland, lAdbroke, and VA stbourne,
wee held at the Windsor Castle Tavern, Hammersmith, to
take iatn ooneiderstion a project for the construction of a line
of railway to traverse the above districts, and extending
from the railway atat/on oa &rasa Common to the Poet-officer,
St. Martine-le-Grand.

reed letters from Mr. H. Pownall and Mr. W. Bird, mils-
trate", expressing their inability to be prevent, but their ap-
proval of the object of the meeting.
Mr. P. BROAD moved the first resolution —.That the
Metropolitan Railway is a project of the greatest general
cemmontal Importance, and of paramount necessity as
hatter treat, forming the only available metes of atom
der these western suburbs at present wholly deprived of
seaway assammicetioe with London, and coneequently
Iherstiy eseireasly depredated in value and position."
Mr. T. 11. Cowan suppretsd the resolution, and dwelt

eithbeerheede by railway accommodation, instancing, in
egged of his rsmerits, Camden-town, which had bees
lergely bombed by the North London Railway. Instead

12sede leafiest would he erected. and the whole
washbe meek Improved. if they had railway
cominemlaatkis. Would they, then. allow the opportunity
which was sowallind thins to pass without availing them-
selves of If they did they would probably not have
another, sad it would certainly be a source of great regret.
The Maw wait is their own hands, by itubeeribtag tor the
