Jt would be a work of supererogation to point out at the presont dav the vast importance of railway communication in India . Fully to develop tho rich and varied productive resources of that country , railways are indispensable ; and in a political point of view , it would be difficult to estimate too highly tho importance of such lines of communication . Recout events have too clearly shown the necessity of providing for the rapid concentration of troops on any point where their presence may bo required . Among the several undertakings of this nature , which British enterprise and capital have called forth , none offer a fairer prospect of success than that which is now submitted to tho public . Tho commercial advantages to ho derived from opening out tho Valley of the Godavcry , and the Berar and Hyderabad territories , were pointed out to tho local authorities many years ago by tho late Lord Metcalfe , when Resident at Hyderabad , and moro recently by Colonel Cotton , of tho Madras Engineers , in his valuable publication , "Public Works in fndU . " In tho " Appondix to Minutes of Evidence tak on before Select Committee on tho Government of Indian Territories , " in J 803 , at pago 101 it is stated , " If bv moans of railroads tho groat cotton-field of Boror , situated within tho dominions of the Nizam of Hyderabad , were placed nearly on an equality , in point of facility of transport , with tho maritime cotton districts , then a breadth of land , sufneienfc for tho growth of a quantity equal to tho full demand of Groat Britain , might at once be made available It is , howovor , only by moans of a railway that the territory of Borar can bo placed in a position to bocomo a cottori-oxporllng country . " Cotton , tho groat staplo of Berar , would bo Drought down to a port of shipment at a very reduced rate of ohnrgo . That grown in tho vicinity ofOhanda is considered tho boat in India . Wheat is another valuable product of Borar : its comparative cost in the intorior and on tho coast is as 31 to 00 , or a difTuronco of 113 per cent . ; while rioo , and salt , sugar , Ac Ac , which aro tho products of tho coast , are respectively 175 aud 200 por cent , dearer In tlio interior , owing to tho oxpouso of transit . ( Sue Cotton , pj > . 88 , 100 , 273 , 274 . ) Extensive , forests of valuable timbor would also become available , affording an ample supply of Bloopers for tho coutrfruotiou of the railway . Teak , of tho largest dimensions , might bo brought to market at a much cheaper rate than that which is now importod into Oorinea from the opposite coast of Rurmah . , Tho port of Gorlnga , filtimtcd at tlio mouth of tho Godavory , on tho eastern hIcIo of tho ponlnsula , and midway botwoon Calcutta and Madras , is tho only harbour on that coast . Ships of largo A > imlen have boon liiuUt there ; and it lias every facility Cor loading and , dlHolmrglng cargo , being froo from tlio surf which renders tho Coromandol coast gonorally so Inaccessible . It is proposed to carry tho prolootorl railway from tho port of Oornigiv , via Ohluoor and Olnnidft , to Naienoro , with a branuh lino to the olt . y of HyilombndiQnd . uHmmtoly to
