It is in contemplation to take into consi- 
deration a plan projected by Mr. Rennie, for 
the junction of the Medway, Rother, and 
Stour, “by means of navigable canals. The 
line of the canal proposed for the junction of 
the Medway and Rother, 1s from the Med- 
way at Yalding to Horsmonden, thence by 
Frittenden to Galiows Green, near Tenter- 
den, and from thence to the royal milicary 
canal at Stone, which connects it with the 
Rether. The tine projected to unite with 
the Stour is proposed to branch off at Middle 
Quarter, near High Halden, which in its 
course will embrace Ashford, and be conti- 
nued to Wye, from whence it may without 
difaculty be extended to Canterbury. The 
total cost of this last line, twenty-seven 
miles in length, is estimated at 109,744/. of 
the former line, near!y thirty-four miles in 
length, 190,688/. Jf then the advantages to 
be derived from this proceeding ere so ob-

(June 1, 
vious to the landed interest of the county, of 
how much consequence is it to the trading 
interest of Canterbury, that some immediate 
steps should be taken to obtain a navigation 
from thence to the sea; and as the enormous 
expense of land-carriage may not be within 
the knowledge or conception of the trade of 
that city, we give, as an instance, that of 
the carriage of coal only, during the last two 
years. In the years 1808 and 1809, the 
guantity of coal brought into Canterbury, 
and on which the pavement coe of 1s. per 
chaldron was paid, was 18,250 chaldrons, 
being an average of 9125 yearly; which, at 
the rate of 15s. per chaldron, (the price ae 
for land carriage,) gives 59511. 5s.5 a sum 
capintent to discharge the interest of 
120,0001. more, by one-sixth, than 
the estimate of the whole cost of canal, har- 
bour, &c.. It is to be observed hee that 
the carriage of coal only is calculated; if 
then that of hops, timbers, stone, wool, lea~ — 
ther, grocery, shop goods, &c. is added, and 
which in 1802 was estimated at 13,000 tons 
annually, and calculated to cost 72501. it 
will be found that the saving to the public 
wiil be more than one-half of the present 
price paid for land-carriage of every descrip- 
tion. 
A project is in Contemplation to construct 
an harbour at St. Nicholas Bay, on the north- 
eastern coast of this county. It originated 
with some merchants in London, with a view 
of obtaining a shelter for thoge vessels which 
in the winter season are so much exposed on 
the Kent coast. It is proposed to make the 
harbour capable of receiving vessels of 500 
tons burthen.
