The port of Boston affords the readiest outlet for exports from the
manufacturing districts to the north of Europe, and the importance
of direct corinounication from the midland counties to a place so ad-
vantageously situate cannot be over-estimated.
Leicester has, or shortly will have, direst commanication with
Birmingham, and all the other important towns in the midland
listrict.

The Midland Railway Company is extending the communication
to Melton Mowbray, by means of its branch from Systoi to Peter-
borough, which passes through that place. There is also a complete
line of railway about to be established from Nottingham, through
Grantham sad relkingham, to Boston, as well as to Spalding, Wis-
beach, Lyan Yarmouth, and other important towns is the eastern
counties.

The Leicester, Melton Mowbray, and Boston Direct Union Rail-
way, by forming a line from Melton Mowbray to Folkinghara, will
supply the only link wanting to complete a direct through cenunini-
' cation from Birmingham, Warwick, Worcester, Coventry, and the
manufacturing districts generally, to Boston, as well as by means of
existing and projected railways from Wales and the Bristol Channel,
to that seaport.
The length of the proposed line will cot exceed twenty-six riles ;
and as it will pass through a country very favourable for engiseer-
ing purposes, the expense of construction will, it is expected, be less
than the usual average. The admirable position of this railway can-
not fail, it is confidently expected, to command a large return, both
in passengers and In goods traffic.
The Company will be in a sitaation to deposit the Parliamentary
plans and sections in ample time for complying with the startitng
orders, and enabling then to apply for their Act Ia the ensuing
session.
