ACTING Exam/Ea—Mr. Richard Dixon, Codalming, Surrey.
CossuvriNa ENGINEER—Joseph Locke, Esq., 20, Adam-
street, Adelphi.
SECRETARY—Mr. John Fowle, Mint-street, Rye.
Capital, 400,0001., in 16,000 Shares of 251. each. Deposit,
3/. per Share. 21. 10s. for the deposit of 10 per cent. re-
quired by the Standing Orders, and 10s. for Parliamentary
and Engineering expenses.
The advantages of Railway communication, both to the coun-
try through which it passes and to the projectors, when pru-
dently undertaken and carried out, are too well known and ap-
preciated to need any arguments in its favour.
This Railway will be 25 miles in length, and is intended
to connect the important towns of Hastings (including St.
Leonard's), Rye, and Tenterden, with the South-Eastern
Railway at Headcorn, and the forms required by the Standing
Orders, preparatory to applying for an Act having been com-
plied with, it is intended to go to Parliament in the ensuing
session for the necessary powers to carry the undertaking into
effect.

A single line of rails will be quite sufficient for the anti-
cipated traffic of the proposed Railway, and Mr. Errington,
on behalf of Mr. Locke, having examined the plans and sec-
tions, has estimated the expense of constructing a single line,
including bridges for a double line, and stations and sidings,
at 345,0001. The Provisional Committee from their know-
ledge of the district, and from the best information they can
obtain, estimate the cost of land and compensation, Parlia-
mentary expenses, &c., at 55,0001., makiag a total capital of
400,0001., which they feel confident will be amply sufficient
for the construction of the line.

The Committee have made careful inquiries from the most
authentic sources, namely, the proprietors of coaches and
other conveyances on the line, the result of which is given in
the annexed traffic table showing a traffic of 7371. per week,
exclusive of a considerable amount of private traffic, the re-
turns of which cannot be ascertained.

The estimates allowed 4 Parliamentary Committees, from
the increased facilities of railway communication, are double the
previous actual traffic. This, which is below the average result
as shown by experience, would make the receipts on the pro •
posed Railway amount to 1,4741. per week, making a gross
income of £76,648
From which deduct for working expenses 40 percent.,
being above the usual average

--
Leaving a net income of ... £45,988
.or upwards of 11 per cent. en the estimated outlay
The Committee have looked carefully through the last
census, and find that the population in the immediate neigh-
bolrhood of the proposed line amounts to upwards of 60,000,
and upon examining the returns made at the respective custom-
houses of Hastings, Rye, and Shoreham, the Committee find
that the present exports from Hastings and Rye exceed those of
Shoreham, without allowing for any increase which will un-
questionably be caused by the intended railway.
Two months' notice will be given of all calls, and not more
than 21. 10s. per share will be calleti for at one time.
Power will be applied for in the Act to allow interest on the
deposits and paid up calls at the rate of 41. per Cent. per annum.
Applications for Shares to be made to Messrs. Amory, Sewell,
and Moores, Throgmorton-street, London; Mr. Fowle, Mint-
street, Rye; and Mr. Shewell, Stock and Sharebroker, 25,
Tokenhouse-yard, London.
