The object of this Company is to establish Docks for the
IXpress use of Steam-Vessels, with all the accommodation for
Passengers and goods, which that rapidly-increasing class of our
luereantile navy now demands.
The site of the proposed Docke comprises the River frontage
between the Royal Dock-yard and Deptford Creek, where the
River is deeper than in any other part : hence the largest class
of Steam-ships may arrive or depart at almost any period of
the tide.
There will be a communication by a Junction Railway to
that of the Greenwich, by which a great saving of time will be
!fleeted to the passenger, as well as freedom from risk of acci-
dents in the Pool, which are so frequent and appalling in their
extent and effects. The Junction Railway will also smite the
Crovdon, Brighton, and South-Eastern Railways.
The prospectus and plans, with every information, may bo
Ibtained of the Sect etary, at the Office of the Company,
