THE CHAIN PIER,

Captain S. Brown, has arrived here this week,
for the purpotte of inspecting the Chain Pier, to which ex-
tensive alterations and repairs are about to be ntarle. Snmo
of the piles at the extremity, and also, it is thought, Drilla
third dump, are affected by the worms; and it is in con-
sequence, intended to renew the lower parts. The wdrks
will be commenced very shortly; and it is expected they
will be finished in the course of the ensuing spring. 'On
Saturday last Mr. Hume, M.P., who holds shares in 'the
Chain Pier, came over frost Worthing, and, in company
with Captain Brown, visited the Pier, when the lion.
Gentleman expressed his 'entire concurrence in the pro-
posed arrangements.

We undeTstand that a plan bas been submitted to Cap-
tain Brown, with he view of converting the Pier into an
effectual bieak water, by filling up the piles at the end
With clan and atone, and lengthening the outer bead 20
feet to the south, and 30 feet westward. This would add
greatly to the benefit which the Pier has already conferred
upon the town, since it would not only afford, in stormy
weather, a safe point of embarkation for 'the stlittn-packeti
(the necessity of which has be proved on steveral reient
occasions), hut would also enable Royal yachts, and item
frigate, to come alongside, the depth of water being amply.
sufficient for that purpose. The cost would, however,, be
considerable, and no determination hart yet been come to
upon the subject.

We coatis that we feel touch interested in the prosperity
of this beautiful structure, which flame one of the prin-
cipal attractions of the town, and has long been a theme
of admiration with foreigners, Although it has been inti-
toted upon the contineht, the instances are far from nume-
rota' and it remains a proud monument to the talent of
its coustnietor. We have learned with much *astir*
that the recent investigations have satisfactorily proved
the stability of the Chain Pier ; and but fur the wanton
injury inflicted upon the esplanade by the groyne' erected
for the protection of their new sea wall, which has entailed
upon the Company an expence of 1,1001. or 1,200!. the
shareholders would this year, we are assured, have received
five per cent. interest on their shares. It has always sp-
ppeared to us that much might be done to increase she re-
ceipts of toll, by finishiog, from time to tint*, some ad-
ditional attraction. As present, the ateam-psckets, the
number of persons they draw to the pier, add greatly to
its revenues; and the same etiect would fhlluw sailing
matches and other things of a like nature. This is
scarcely, however, likely to be done, unless the pier were
in the hands of a person who had a snore urgent interest
to increase the amount of its receipts. This object, it Oc-
curs to us, would be best attained by farming the toile;
and we therefore throw nut the hint to the Coupiny fur
their consideration.—BristAton 6uzette.

which were constructed so long back sts 1821, and were the
first made upon the Continent. At Puts there are also two,one
of which Is fur carriages, the other the foot passengers only.
