This Company has been formed for aving the Metropolis
and twenty miles round, with wood. Specimens of the prin-
ciple have been laid down at WhitGhall, Buckingham Palace,
and part of Oxford-street, below Wells-street and Newman-
street, which have proved its superiority over every other mode
0/ wood pavement hitherto adopted. From authent►c returns,
it appears the paving-rates in the Metrop&is alone amount to
200,000/. annually—the repairs in Oxford.street are 5,0001.
per annum.
The economy of wood paving on this principle, compared
with every other model, ensures to this Company an ample
remunerat►on per square yard ; and, that their operations may
be carried to any extent, ►t is only necessary to state that the
roads in the 111etropolis now paved with stone and Mac-
adamised comprise between five and six millions of
square yards, for which there is no doubt wood will be sub-
stituted, removing, as it effectually does, so many long-
eomplained-of nuisances. The nresent orders received by the
Company amount to 20,000/. 'Negotiations are pending for
other work to a great extent.
Models and reports as to tne merits of the invention, by sur-
veyors and other competent persons, may be seen at the offices
of the Company as above.

To the Directors of the Metropolitan Patent Wood Pavement

Company.
Gentlemen—As Surveyor to the Commissioners for Paving
the Regent's-park, Regent-street, and Whitehall districts, by
hid
order the wood pavement on the above principle has been
*id down at Whitehall, and in reply to your note requesting my
opinion of its merits, I have to inform you that the work has not
only given me and the Commissioners entire satisfaction, but has
excited the admiration of the public generally. I have no
doubt but this mode of pavement will be universally adopted,
as it is not only free from noiso and mud, but the wear and tear
of public and other conveyances will be greatly reduced. The
Wood pavement laid down at Whitehall stands firmly, and is in
as good condition as the first day it was laid down.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,

To the Directers of the Metropolitan Patent Wood Pavement

Company.
Gentlemen,—ln reply to your application to me for a certi-
Seats of my opinion of the Wood Pavement laid down by your
bearing
in various parts of London, I have much pleasure in
Dearing testimony to its evenness of surface, as well as to its
compactness and solidity, and I am sure when it comes to be
generally adopted, the wear and tear of horses and carriages
will be greatly reduced. As Manager of the London Convey-
ance Company, who are Proprietors of Omnibuses, running be-
tween the Nightingale Tavern, and Elephant and Castle, I
have remarked that the draft is ess for horses, when going over
Your experimental pavement at Whitehall ; and I think the
Dente sort of paving would be found much superior to all others
ba stable stalls and yards.
Hoping to see it generally adopted,
I remain, Gentlemen, your most obedient servant,
