The object of this undertaking is to open a direct line of rail-
way to connect the Northern, Eastern, and South Essex Railways,
by meant of a steam ferry from Tilbury Fort to Gravesend, with
Tunbridge Wells, Levee, and litighton.
It is contemplated to proceed from the Eastern Counties Rail-
way at or near Har'ow station to Tilbury, crossing the river
by a steam floating.br:dge to Gravesend, passing by Cobham,
Snodland, Mailing, and Hadlow to Tunbridge, thence by the South.
Eastern Railway to Tunbridge Wells, passing Uckfield t• Lewes,
and thence joining tke Erighton. Lewes, nd Hastings Railway to
Brighton.
An inspectiob. of the map will clearly show the sweat import-
ance of this railway, whether considered in a local or national
point of view, forming as it will a most useful chain of local com-
munication for the fertile and ,populeus tracts through which it
passes.
It will bring the Northern and Eastern Counties, the mouth of
the Thames, and North Kent, into direct communication, by
way of Brighton, wit's Dier.pe end Havre, and thus form, in con.
junction with the railways sow in progress on the Continent, the
shortest possible route to Porte and the Mediterranean.
By this railway the large population of the North Eastern Own-
tics, numbering nearly two millions, will have a direct and easy
communication With the whole of the populous and important
counties of Kent and Susses, without going round to London, and
thereby avoiding the Inconvenience arising from the unconnected
lines Borth and south of the metropolis.

effected; and as such, the project has been received with the most

ficient to fulfil the requirements cf the undertaking; but a large
accession of valuable traffie cannot, tail to be the result of the
increased accommodation thus alotrded to the public, and rendering
