The advantages of railway communication bath to the country
through which it passes and to the projectors, when prudently
undertaken and carried out, are too well known and appreciated
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.
Leonardo), 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. . _ _ _

way's original CRAYON DRAWINGS from RAPHAEL'S

A single line of raffle will be quite sufficient for lho antici-
pated traffic of the proposed railway, and Mr. Errington, on
behalf of Mr. Locke, having examined the plans and sections,
has estimated the expense of constructing a single line, in-
cluding bridges for a double line, and stations and sidings, at
345,000/. The Provisional Committee, from their knowledge
of the district, and from the best information they can obtain,
estimate the cost of land and compensation, Parliamentary ex-
penses. &c., at 55,0001., making a total capital of 400,0001.,
which. they feel confident will be amply sufficient for the con-
struction 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
traffic table annexed to the prospectus, showing a traffic of 7371.
per week, exclusive of a considerable amount of private traffic,
the returns of which cannot be ascertained.
This traffic, according to the computation allowed by Par-
liamentary Committee as the result of the increased facilities of
railway communication, and which is below the average, as
shown by experience, would make the receipts on the pro-
posed railway amount to 1,4741. per week, making a gross
annual income of £76,648
From which, deduct for working expenses 40 per cent 30,660

Leaving a net income of £45,983
or upwards of 11 per cent. on the estimated outlay.
The Committee have the satisfaction to state that they have
entered into an arrangement with the Directors of the South
Eastern Company, subject to the approbation of their Proprie-
tors, by which that Company will engage at any time within
five years from its opening to take a lease of the Hastings line
for 21 years, at such a rent as shall guarantee to the Proprietors
4 per cent. per annum on the cost of its construction to the ex-
tent of the estimate, with a moiety of the net surplus profits
beyond the rental, thus giving to the Proprietors of this under-
taking the opportunity of working the contemplated line them-
selves fur five years, with the option, should it be deemed more
advantageous at any time within that period, of requiring the
South Eastern Company to-take a lease for 21 years, at a rental
securing to the Proprietors a certain fair return for their ca-
pital with a proportion of the surplus benefits likely to arise
from union management and a consequent reduction of expenses.
The Committee have looked carefully through the last census
and find that the population in the immediate neighbourhood
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.
Four months' notice will be given of all Calls, and not more
than 21. 10s. per share, will be called for at one time.
Power will be applied fur in the Act, to allow interest on
the Deposits and paid up Calls, at the rate of 41. per cent. per
annum.

FOR STOPPING DECAYED TEETH.
MR. THOMAS'S SUCCEDANEUM,
Price 4s. Cd.
Patronised by her Majesty, his Royal Highness Prince Albert,
and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent.
This valuable SOCCEDANEUM for STOPPING DE-
CAYED TEETH, however large the cavity is far superior to
anything ever before used, as it is placed in the tooth in a soft
state, without any pressure or pain, and in a short time becomes
as hard as the enamel, and will remain firm in the tooth for
many years, rendering extraction unnecessary. It arrests all
further progress of decay, and renders them again useful in
mastication.
Prepared only by Mr. Thomas, Surgeon-Dentist, 68, Ber-
ners-street, Oxford-street. Price 4s. 6d., and will be sent
free by post to any part of the kingdom.
Mr. Thomas continues to supply the loss of teeth without
springs or wires, and has introduced an entirely NEW DE-
SCRIPTION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, which will be
found very superior to all others, as they will never decay, nor
become discoloured, and their perfect resemblance to nature
defies detection even by the closest observer. This method
does not require the extraction of any teeth or roots, or any
painful operation whatever. The charges will be found much
less than most Dentists.

London, September 1, 1843.
The BOARD of SUPERINTENDENCE of the " HALL
:f COMMERCE" take leave to draw your attention to this
Institution. _

It has built and established at a very great cost, by a
Ingle individual, for the convenience of the Commercial Com-
munity of the City of London, with a degree of public spirit
worthy the metropolis of the world.
The subscription is now placed on so moderate a scale as to
e no object of consideration, in proportion to the conveniences
„ffered, which are set forth in the above Prospectus ; and the
Board are of opinion, that without interfering with any of the
existing establishments appropriated to specific branches of
rade, these conveniences may be found available by a very large
body of persons in the City of London—by parties visiting
ondon occasionally on mercantile affairs—and by gentlemen
from the Continent and other foreign ports.

which the worlehas evidently been got up cannot but recommend
it to very extensive public patronage. A considerable quantity of
matter not contained in its predec ssors has been added to this publi-
cation, and the whole is neatly and cleverly printed."
Morning Post, December 9, 1843.—" The new edition of the Post
Office London Directory' 'for the ensuing year has just been com-
pleted, being the 45th annual publication. It contains the names of
a vast number of new. people engaged in commerce and trade of
every description. No relaxation appears to have taken place in the
efforts ofthe proprietors to render this a most useful and inaispen-
sibh,, volume, The amMgam ition of the nobility, gentry, merchants,
and traders in the Street Directory' is a most excellent plan, and
the Law Courts and Parliamentary divisions have been corrected up
to-the most recent possible date; the latter, epecially, are brought
down lo a perio t as recent as the Salisbury election. The
Postal Directory' contains the latest regulations, and appears to
have been arranged in a form at once comprehensive and easy of
reference."

Morning Herald, December 6. 1843 This Directory may be
considered a ne plus ultra in its way. Like Aaron's rod when
changed into a serpent, it has swallowed up all that resembled it, its
principal antagonist, the Directory of Robson, having officially suc-
cumbed to its superior size and enlarged c intents. When we men-
tion thit it contains nearly :,,000 closely printed pages of reference to
every conceivable subject that can of the necessities of the London
resident or visitor, we _have only indicated a small part of its value,
which, to be properly air, reciated, must be examined with more
minuteness -than we have space to detail. To one new feature we
we ir ayi however, iirect attention—viz., to that part which contains
the Postal Directory,' where a digest will be found, compiled from
the in at authentic sr urces, of the recant treaties with foreign Powers.
The list entitled Universal Rates' of Postage' is a most successful
attempt to produce th, m in a rorm at once comprehensive and easy
of ri ference. Kelly's Directory is, indeed, not only the largest that
we have ever seen, but, without question, the most perfect.'
Morning Advertiser, December 8, 81.1 Ihe 45th annual pub-
lication of (his most useful work h s just appeared, and, having
made a careful examination of its contents, we feel it to be an act of
justice to the proprietor to say that the statement made in the preface
as to the great exertions wh-ch have been made to render the edi-
tion for 1814 worthy of the largest commercial city in the world, is
fully borne out. Great additions hare been made in the present
edition as compared with its in mediate predecessor, albeit the latter
itself was on so vast a scale. The inc i ease applies chiefly to the
Street,' ' Commercial,' 'Trades," Law,' and Court' Directories.
It would be difficult, indeed, to give an idea of the gigantic propor-
tions now a sumed by the Directory, and, as for the accuracy with
with which it is compiled, all we can say is, that, after testing it, as
already described, we have got been able to discover one single iris.
take_ Every information passible connected with a work of this
nature, will be found in it. It is accompanied by an admirable map
of London...* •

Weekly Dispatch, December 10, 1.943.--•• The excellent manner
in which, fur years past, this Directory has been conducted, has at
length entirely superseded its contemporary, Robson's London Di-
rectory,' but although the managers have no competitor to stimu-
late their exertions for superiority, they have not ceased to devote
their best exer' ions to justify the patronage they have received, and
in the number just published for the forthcoming year, we find that
the Street Directory' is largely increased, and that it has an en-
tirely new feature—viz , tables of the universal rates of postage,
compiled from official sources, comprehending an easy reference of
the postal arrangements contained in the treaties with foreign
Powers. This, and other information which the work contains,
could only be obtained by those who possess the same advantages
as the gentlemen who manage the' Post-office Directory,' and so
long as they continue to devote the same care and attention to the
work that they have hitherto done, their Lbours will be appreciated
and rewarded by the pablie."
Globe, December '7, I'43.—"The present handsome volume, to
which a large Plan of London is prefixed, and which unites the
characters of a City and Court Directory, must be acknowledged
to be worthy, in the comprehensivene• s of-. its contents, of the
greatest centre of wealth and commerce in the world. It is stated
in the preface that 40,000 names appear in this volume, which
either have not been in print at all, or not at the same addresses ;
and that the 'Street Directory,' which in the edition of 1843 was
comprised in 366, in the present volume extends to 466 pages. The
Postal t ;irectory' furnishes new tables of rates of postage, in con-
formity with the treaties lately concluded with foreign Powers. On
the whole, the volume is the most complete collection of local infor.
mation that ever before was adapted to waists so enormous in local
range."
Britannia, December 9,1343.-1' This wonsterfui volume—for truly
wonderful it is in every respect—it this year augmented to near 2,0(0
pages, and, what we do not always find to be the case, its value is in.
creased in greater proportion than its bulk. 7he merit and use-
fulness of any work of this kind depend very greatly on the corn-
; leteness of its details, and on its comprising all the information
which the merchant, trader, or any other person engaged in business
in London can reasonably expect to find ; and, by extensive addi-
tions, and the most laborious attention to minute de'ails, this Direc-
tory is now made .o per feet, accurate, and comprehensive, as to leave,
as -we imagine, no room for the exercise of further ingenuity in the
way of improvement. Every department has been so enlarged as to
render it certain that the required information will be found,
and the system of classification is so well digested and carried
Into detail, that; large as the volume i', any single name, or any
item of Intelligence, embodied in its multifarious contents,
may be found without an instant's loss of time. Another merit
is, that the information required is never given imperfect. If,
for instance, you look for the name of any banker in the United
Kingdom, you will not only find it with the proper address, but also
with the house added with which it has connections in London. So
in every other d partment ; you miss nothing you want, and find
much you could not reasonably expect. Among the judicious im-
provements of this year are the addition of r.:0,000 new names ; a
valuable enlargement of the ' Conveyance Directory,' which now
comprehends (very kind of transit made up to the latest date, an I
the most recent regulations in the Post Office, with tables of the
new rates of f--reign postage. In its complete shape, with an exec'.
lent map, a dozen direciorics in one, with every dwelling in the
metropolis and suburbs marked, with the nacre of every house.
holder recorded, and the occupation of every merchant and trader
defined, it presents an example of what may be effected by the union
of enterprise, capital, skill, and industry when they have the dissec-
tion of a city like London for their object, and the certainty of is
universal patronage for their reward—the certainty, because in truth
the volume is a public b',on, and as necessary to all persons engaged
in trade as the commonest implements of the counting-house or the
shop, as a day-book, for instance, or an inkstand."
Shipping and Mercantile Gazette, December 14, 1813.—" This
huge annual has again made its appearance. The volume for 1844

PUBLICATIONS.

is larger than the Est. This is caused in part by the late increase of
buiLlings is London, but in a greater degree by additions to its use-
fulness. The Commercial, Court, Street, and other Directories are
considerably enlarged, and so classified as to cause no loss of time in
reference. .The Parliamentary Directory' embraces the latest
changes in the repr sentation—namely, those of the City and Salis-
bury. The • Postal Directory' furnishes new tables of rates of post-
age, in conformity with the recent treaties with foreign Powers.
Besides the Banking Conveyance, and Official Directories, the coun-
try inns throughout the provinces are given; indeed, every kind of
information that it is possible to expect in such a work is supplied in
the Post-office London Directory.' A proof of the importance of
this monster book is that it annihilates all rivalry. Its presence, like
that of Polypheme, is a signal for the disappearance of all who venture
upon the same ground; for we learn from a memorandum attached
to the volume that ti!e Proprietors of llobson's London Directory'
have declared their Malady to compete with the Post-office volume,
and have consequently ceased to publish it. Thus the metropolitan,
like the pastoral monster, has flung the fatal rock upon its most
formidable rival. We should not forget to name that tho volun-c
bet', •re us is prefaced by a good modern map of London."
Ilerapath's Journal, December 9, 1813 —" Of the extraordinary
productions of the present day, probably this is the one most calcu-
lated to excite astonishment. If those ignorant of the mysteries
of typography are puzzled to think how it has been accomplished,
all accustomed to literary labour, and therefore able to appreciate
the difficulties of the task, must be infinitely snore so. The various
classifications have been wall considered. Of all the merits of this—
it may be fairly termed—National Directory, not the least is the ex-
treme clearness and simplicity of its arrangement; larger than the
largest ordinary work of the kind, it can throughout be consulted
with the same facility as a dictionary. This has been of by
judicious sub-division appropriate headings—good indices—and
strict alphabetical arrangement. The book is divided into twelve
subj;:cts, each complete in itself, and yet all more or less connected
with each other. We will take the first :—An arrangement of
all the inhabitants of every street, square, court, and
place within the metropolis, and for some miles round,
from Clapham to Ball's-pond, and from Stratford to Not-
ting-hill. This list is, as, indeed, may be said of very
many others in the volume, unique. It Ores the inhabitants of
every place, nobility and gentry, merchants and shopkeepers,
all at one view. This is a thing that, for obvious rea, ons, no other
work has attempted A description of the locality is likewise fur-
nished, and as in each street those which intersect it are accurately
described, the entire, a, well as being a copious Directory, partakes
cf the character of a general map. We have heard before of Mr.
M'Adam, the colossus of roads; but this may be truly called the
colossus of streets. Had such a thing been in existence alter the
fire of London, a general and available registry of property would
have been at hand, and, should it happen that a copy survive the
metropolis it so well describes, the future historian or statistician
might ft om its psgcs obtain an excellent idea of the weaqh, extent,
and magnificence of the greatest commercial city the world has yet
s en, and of the pursuits of its inhabitants. We observe that in the
Conveyance Directory several thousand new places have been intro.
.isced, with all the newest railway information. The cost of the
production of such a book must have been enormous, and to repay
the energetic proprietors the sale must be very great indeed. Of this
there can, however, be little doubt, as in any place of real business it
cannot t e dispensed with without continued inconvenience."
Mining Journal, December 9, 1843 This Directory for the
forthcoming year, evidences the exercise of indefatigable research
in the procuration of an immense mass of valuable in forn ation,
and of great talent in its classification and arrangement, so as to be
of the utmost use, and readily available. It presents a complete
Post-office vade mecum, and abounds in particulars of such univer-
sal importance as to become an indispensable requis to for the office
of the banker, merchant, or tradesman. The accuracy and perfect
arrangement of this work are deserving of the highest praise, and
the sale must indeed be considerable to compensate for the expense
and labour entailed on its production."
Spectator, December 9, 1541.—" This immense volume still con.
Wines adding to its facts and information, though the addition of
new features seems to have stopped at present from the exhaustion
of subjects. To what extent additional minutia: are added, may be
guessed by upwards of s'oo piges more of large and closely-printed
matter being given in the present volume."
John Bull, December 23, 18(3.—" Nothing less than a Monster
Review ' could do complete justice to this' Monster Volume,' which
is indeed a remarkable monument of labour, industry, and accuracy.
Among an almost indefinite number of other useful things, it com-
prises a complete Official Directory,' Street Directory,' Com-
mercial Directory,' Trades Directory,' 'Law Directors,' Court
Directory,' Po tal Directory,' City Directory,' ' Conveyance
Directory,' Ranking Directory,'&c. In short there is nothing con.
nected with this huge metropolis in the way of direction which will
not be found here. It is mentioned that 40,000 names appear in
this volume, which either have not been in print at all, or not at the
same addresses, whsle the Street Directory,' which last year was
comprised in 366 pages, now occupies 4:38 pages. In the ' Postal
Directory,' the latest regulations have been arranged in the pai t
headed' Universal Rates of Postage,' in a form at once comprehen-
sive and easy of reference."
