" In conclusion, while expressing our sense of the courtesy of
bis Excellency in Council, in furnishing us with the remarks in
question on our memorial, we cannot but again lament that the
existing Government appears resolved to disregard the deliberate
opinions of the whole mercantile community, and sacrifice to a
fallacious appearance of present prosperity the just claims of the
colonists and the real intererts of the settlement,--We have the
honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servants,

The port et Boston affords the readiest outlet for exports hem the
manufacturing districts to the north of Europe, and the importance
of direct communication from the midland counties to a place se ad-
vantageously sitaate cannot lie ever-estimated.
Leicester has, or shortly will Stave, direst communication with
Birmingham, and all the other important tewis I. the midland
district.

The Midland Railway Company is extending the ceramunicatiea
to Mellon Mowbray, by means of its branch from tiystoa to Peter-
borough, which passes throegh that place. There is also a complete
line of railway about to be established from Nottingham, tkraugh
Grantham and Felkingliam, to Reston, as well as to Spalding, Wis-
beach, Lying Tarnteath, an other important towns is the eastern
counties.

vv
The Leicester, Melton Mowbray, and Bostos Direct Unica. Rail-
way, by forming a line from Melton Mowbray to Folkinghars, 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 meals of
existing and projected railways from Wales and the Bristol Channel,
to that seaport.
The length of the proposed line will sot exceed twenty-eix miles ;
and as it will pass through a country ♦ery 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
is passengers and in goods traffic.
The Company will be in a sitaatios to deposit the Parliamentary
plans and sections in ample time for complying with the standing
orders, and enabling them to apply for their ♦ct is the ensuing
session.

This first-named project undertaken with the sanction and in con-
nexion with the South Wales Railway Company, has for its object
to connect the well-known harbour of Milford Haven with Haver-
fordwest, and both with the South Wales Railway at Fenty Park
Mill, and by Means of the northern branch of that railway with the
midland counties and the north of England, and by the other
branch with the southern counties and London ; thus for the first
time realising all the advantages of the finest harbour in this
country.
The second-named project is also undertaken with the sanction of
and with the promise of every assistance from, the South Wales
Railway Company, and will connect the romantic watering-place of
Tenby and the harbour of Saundersfoot with the South Wales Rail-
way Company at or near Reynalton, and by means of that railway
wills Bristol, Gloucester, London, and the whole of England. The
line passes through the very centre of an anthracite coal-field of the
best quality, and the immediate neighbourhood of the line abounds
with the very best deserp,tion of ironstone and limestone, which, by
means of this line, may be conveyed to any part of England.

plans, the ensuing ses-
sion is already published in the " Gazette," all sections, or
necessary documents will be deposited, as required by the standing
orders, before the 30th instant. The Directors have also much sa-
tisfaction in stating that most advantageous arrangements have been
concluded with the Saundersfoot Railway and Harbour Company for
the purchase of their line and works, which will considerably lessen
the cost of this undertaking remove all Parliamentary opposition,
and secure a return on the ca' pital immediately on the Act being ob-
tained.
