This Railway, commencing by a junction with the line of the Lon-
,oll and Brighton Railway at Brighton, and terminating at Saint
Leonards and Hastings, is projected as the most eligible Line that can
‘ •
executed for connecting with London the fashionable watering-
Places of Hastings, Saint Leonards, and Eastbourne, the market
`9ln of Hailsham, the county and assize town of Lewes, and the
t.
withagricultural districts of East Sussex, connecting all these places
"th each other, and with the important town of Brighton.
It, is adapted to become a portion of an important national Line,
tra
ersing the coast, and connecting the eastern and western ex-
hies of Sussex. The Shoreham and Chichester Railway, for
Which an Act of Parliament is now being applied for, forming an-
other link of this important chain.
Between Brighton and Lewes, a length of 7i miles, it is proposed to
Ma,
a double Line. Between Lewes and Hastings, 24. t miles, a
Single Line only, with bridges and land for a double Line throughout.
Two several plans have at different times been proposed to connect
Hastings with London by Railway in a northern direction, by either
twhich the distance is 81 or 82 miles ; at the same time involving
ne serious engineering obstacles necessarily interposed by the nature
0,, the countr • in that direction.
The distance by the proposed Line is 82 miles, and the country is
Der..caliarly 'adapted to the construction of a Railway.
coLlie.details of the traffic have received the careful scrutiny of the
ttee, and also of the Directors of the London and Brighton
"ra3- Company, and the estimates of the Engineers are of that
ample
character, that Contractors of the highest stability are prepared
• , (with responsible sureties) to complete the Railway, including all
'ontingencies, and the maintenance for twelve months atter the open-
kg of Line, for a less suns than the amount of such estimates.
't
The Passenger traffic alone, with the small portion of the traffic in
11 2,„.,which has been taken into consideration, after deducting 40
Der cent. for the cost of working the line, indicates a return of up-
ward
-s of 8 per cent. upon the proposed capital.
n order to place the undertaking upon a basis of complete sects-
,t •tty it
'Promoters have sought for nd obtained Use cordial co-opera-
' tton Of the Directors of the London and Brighton Railway Company ;
sl€l the Directors of that Company have agreed to ,guarantee 4 per
,
•Per annum to the Shareholders in this undertaking (subject to
7 ' confirmation of their Proprietors at a Meeting to be held on the
th
! • 3,,„ Fedn-uary next) upon the proposed capital, Mr a period of ten
thenext after the opening of the line—together with a moiety of
„",.` Profits which may be realised over and above such 4 per cent.';
"wl further, that in case, upon the completion of the proposed Rail-
'‘l'aY. its Proprietors should prefer testing the productiveness of the
°Tile prior to granting the proposed lease, they should have the
I,,,v`J°ll or so doing, and the Directors will undertake the carrying of
"a traffic 'upon fair and reasonable terms, and be still pre-
Pared,, to take the proposed lease for the then residue of such term of
after:',',,Years from the opening of the line, at any time within five years
the opening.
ha he necessary notices have been given, plans and sections, Sze.,
