The port of Boston affords the readiest outlet fir exports from the
manufacturing districts to the north of Europe, and the importance
of direct communication from the midland counties to a place se ad-
vantageously situate unmet be over-estimated.
_ .

Leicester has, or shortly will have, direeicemmanicatiiii with
Birmingham, and all the other important towns is tke midland
district.

The Midland Railway Company is extending the communlcatioa
to Melton Mowbray, by means of its branch from Syston to Peter-
borough, which passes through that place. There is also a complete
line of railway about to be established from Nottingham, through
Grantham and Felkingham, to Boston, as well as to Spalding, Wis-
beach, Lynn, Tarntoatk, and other importaat towns is the casters
counties.

The Leicester, Melton Mowbray, and Roston Direct Union Rail-
way, by forming a lino from Melton Mowbray to Folkinghara, will
supply the only link wanting to complete a direct through communi-
cation from Birmingham, Warwick, Worcester, Coventry, and the
manufacturing districts generally, to Boston, as well as by moans of
existing and projected railways from Wales and the Bristol Channel,
to that seaport.

The length of the proposed line will not exceed twenty-Mx Telles ;
and as it will pass through a country very favourable for engineer-
ing purposes, the expense of construction will, it is expected, be less
than the usual average. The admirable position of this railway mul-
let fail, it is confidently expected, to command a large return, both
in passengers and in goods traffic.

The
Company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentary
plans and sections in ample time for complying with the standing
orders, and enabling theca to apply for their Act in the ensuing
session.
