source of income to the Company.
This undertaking presents the additional and important advantage
of competing with no line at present established ; on the contrary,
it will be the means of connecting and feeding the several lines enu-
merated, and several others that are projected ; and the engineer
reports that it passes over a particularly easy country, and will be
capable of construction at about 16,000/. per mile ; and the laud-

This railway is projected to form a direct communication between
Brighton and Tonbridge Wells. It will commence at a point of
junction with the Brighton and Lewes Railway at the town of
Lewes, and proceeding by the Valley of the Ouse, pass by Uckfield
and Rotherfield, thence following the valley to Groombridge, proceed
to Tonbridge Wells, and there form a junction with the Tonbridge
Wells branch of the South-Eastern Railway.
The length of the line will be about twenty-two miles. The neces-
sity and advantages of this line of railway are self-evident—it will
connect Brighton immediately with the populous and fashionable
neighbourhood of Tonbridge Wells, and more mediatcly it will con-
nect Southampton, Portsmouth, Chichester, and the ports of the
western coast of Sussex, with the important towns of Maidstone,
Chatham, Rochester, Canterbury, and Dover; thus effecting the
greatly desired object of the shortest and most rapid communication
between Dover and Southampton. The internal communication
between Kent and Sussex will be thus rendered complete. .
The following towns and populous villages are in constant trading
communication with Lewes anti Brighton, and will be accommodated
by this line :—Barcombe, Ringmer, Isfield, Little Horsted, Uckfleld
afaresfield, Frampfleld, East Iloathly, Mayfield, Withyliam,Wadhurst,
Newhaven, and Harbour, Waldron, Fletching, Buxted, Rotherfleld,
Lamberhurst, Frant, Ticehurst, Groomblidge, Hadfield, Asliurst.
The 'existing local traffic will thus be alone sufficient to prove
highly remunerative, exclusive of the great passenger and goods

cessary accommodation is afforded. Detailed traffic tablesarceoinii.
