EXTENSION of the SURREY IRON RAILWAY.

AT a Meeting convened by ptiblic Advertife-
ment, and held at the King's Arms Inn, Croydon, on
Tuefday the 23c1 day of November, 1802,
HYLTON JOLLIFFE, Efq. in the Chair,
Refolved, That it appears to this Meeting, that the prefent
Iron Railway from Croydon to the Thames-at Wandfworth,
and the prefent Canal from Croydon to the Thames at Rother-
hithe and Vauxhall, are fully adequate to all the purpofes of
communication between this part of the country and the me-
tropolis; and that, confequently, any branch from the prefent
Railway to London is wholly unneccffary.
Refoteed alto, That upon more mature confideration of the
projected extenfion of the Surrey Iron Railway from Croydon
to Reigate and Godßone, it is the opinion of this Meeting that'
it is advifable to defer any further proceeding refpedting the
fame, until the pradicability of making a Canal through that
country to Portfmouth, (hall be afcertained by a report daily
expo :led from Mr. RENNII on that fubjed.
That thefe Refolutions be printed in the fame Papers in
which this Meeting was advertifed. And
That the Thanks of this Meeting be given to the Chairman
for his impartial condudt in the Chair.

PHILOSOPHY CORRECTED BY PHILOSOPHY.
ON the return of Peace, and, it is to be hoped, ,
of a difpofition in Europe to liften to the Voice, and to fol-
low the Inveftigations of Reafon, it is thought, that a regular
and philofophic revifion of thofe general Truths and general
Errors, the hoftilities of which, like thofe of the Gods and Ti-
tans, have nearly involved the World in defolation, might, be
extremely ufeful, poffibly, in the produdion of new Truths;
probably, in diminifhing the expedients of Error and the re-
fources of Impofture ; and, certainly, in furnifhing fubjeds of
profitable meditation to the members of a Britifh Parliament,
fummoned to their auguft duties at a period highly important to
the charadter and happinefs of the United Kingdom.—lt is there-
fore propofed to publifh, periodically, a Paper, or May, entitled
EGERI A;
Or, ELEMENTARY STUDIES on the Progrefs of Nations

in Political akenomy. Leglflatlon, and Government.
