He increased facilities in the conveyance of mails, passengers,
specie, kind merchandise between England, via Harwich, and
the portS of Rotterdam, Hamburg, Antwerp, dm.
A traffic arrangement for a term of years has been entered
lido with the Eastern Counties Railway Company on advan-
tageous term's, and the Directors have secured the co-opera-
tiot'of.the authorities of the Dutch-Rhenish Railway Cora-
Pally, arid the other inland navigation and railway establish-
• ' mental in Holland and Germany, all of whom are so convinced
of the advantages to be derived from , this line. of communica-
' tion, ass. the most ,desirable for passenger traffic, and the
speedy conveyance of merchandise and perishable goods. that
they are anxious to promote the views of this Company to
the fullest possible extent.
The_town of Harwich is 68 'miles from London by railway,
and its port is the•most convenient for direct communication
between London .and all the great seaports in Holland and
Belgium, and thence to the northern and central parts of the
• ; ,contfeent of Europe.
• Nesengers proceeding to India via Trieste, by Harwich,
Rotterdam, -and the Dutch-Rhenish Railway, will effect a
. sailing 0f,48 hours, as compared with the route via Marseilles;
the line from (Rotterdam to Trieste being on the eve of com-
pletion without a break.
The harbour of liarwich is safe, commodious, and easy of
access in all weathers and states of the tide- advantages
which no other port possesses on the eastern coast south of
the Humber.
By the opening of this route via Harwich the dangers and
delays of the intricate.navigation of the Swin and the month
• of the River Thames are avoided, whereby a saving of time
is effected to Harifburgh, Rotterdam, and Antwerp of from 10
toil henrs; whilst 'the route to Oberhausen and thence to the
nOrthern parts of Europe is four hours and a quarter less by
-' Hitraieli rind Rotterdam than that by Dover and Ostend, as
per tabular statelherit; and thus the former must become the
direct route of postal communication.
