The port et Boston affords the readiest outlet for exports fern 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 cannot be over-estimated.
Leicester has, or shortly will have, direct communication with
Birmingham, and all the other important towns in the midland
fistrict.

The Midland Railway Company is extending the communication
to Melton Mowbray, by means of its branch ftom Syston to Peter-
borough, which passes through that place. There is also a couplets
line of railway about to he established from lsiottinghana, through
Grantham and Folkingham, to Boston, as well as to Spalding, Nis-
beach, Lyna Yarmouth, and other important towns in the cuter
counties. _ _ _

The Leicester, Melton Mowbray, and Boston Direct rnion Rail-
way, by forming a line from Melton Mowbray to Folkinghans, will
supply the only link wanting to complete a direct through communi-
cation from Birmingham, Warwick, Worces'er, 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 sot exceed twenty-six miles ;
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 can-
not fail, it is confidently expected, to command a large return, both
in passengers and in goads traffic.
The Company will be in a situation to deposit the Parliamentary
plans and sections in ample time for complying with the stanging
orders, and enabling them to apply for their Act in the ensuing
session. • _ _ _
