LONDON AND ' PORTSMOUTH PROPOSED INLAND

NAVIGATION. -
AT a Meeting of the Proprietors and Occupiers
of Land, between Tortington and Portfmouth, through
which the Navigation is intended to pars, held at the Norfolk
Arms Inn, Arundel, on Thurfday, the 3oth day of September,
1802, in cord-titmice of an Advertifement for that purpofe,
Sir GEORGF. T.FIONIAS, Bart. in the Chair,
It was Refoled—That it appears to this Mcctirg highly in-
confiderate and improper to apply to Parliament for Powers to
ma'.le any Canal or Navigation, which mutt !weal-drily cut,
and very materially injure the Property of Individuals, before
it is afcertained that the Public will ultimately be benefited
thereby.

NOTICE to the CREDITORS and DEBTORS of the the late
GEORGE HEMING, Efq. deceare4.
ALL Per-loos who have any Claims or Demands
on the Eitate or. Effeds of GEORGE HEMING, late '
of Wcddington, in the County of Warwick, but afterwards of
Itavenllonc, In the Counties of Leiceltcr and Derby, Efq. de-
eeafcd, and who have not Arcady delivered in their Accounts,
in purfuance of former Advertikments for that purport:, are
hereby rcfpedtively informed, that unlefs fuch Account; arc
delivered to Mr George Greenway, Attorney at Law, Nun-
eaton, Warnickfhire; or to Mr. James Nicholls, Attorney at
Law, No. 41, Great RulTel-ftrcet, Bloomfbury, London, on
or before the laft day of October next, that they will be ex-
cluded all Benefit arifing front the Elite and Meets of the Paid
deceafed.

That it is highly impolitic to attempt acv Inland Navigation,
which mull necrifarily grcatiy dice and injure the Coalting
Trade, which haireecr been deemed the belt Nurfery for our
Seamen, and confc.qttently prevent or greatly impede the man-
ning of our Navy in time of War.
That at a time when the growing Population and a recent
Scarcity, evince the ncceifity of converth:g into Tillage every
Acre which is capable of Cultivation, it would be highly de-
trimental to the Fablie We;rare. to transrorm into an ufelefs
Ditch, a very confidcrable Portion of Land, which is not fur-
paffed in fertility by et y in the Kingdom.
That it dors not appear to this Meeting, that the intended
Canal from Torrington to Chiehefter and Portfmouth, can pof-
fibly be of the leaft Etta& to either of thofc Places, b:eaufe in
time of Peace, Goods and Merchardize may be fent to and
from London by Sea with Safety and Expedition, at a much
Cheaper and caller Rate, than they can potfibly be by an Inland
Navigation, fo circuitous, tedious and expenfive; and in time
of War or Emergency, the Carriage by I.and will be more cer-
tain, quicker, and his •x}.enfive.
That it appears to this Mectis,g, that if an Inland Navigation
between London and Portfmouth i. any °bird to Government,
which it is not conceived to be, it trill be obtained at a much
calla Rate by the London, Portfmouth: and Southampton
Canal, now in contemplation, which will be infinitely 'hurter
than the one propefed by Chichefter.
That this oppofaion is intended only to the Canal from Tor-
tington to Portfmouth.
