Broad-stroet-buildings , Tt would be a work of supererogation to point out at the present day the vast importance of railway communication in India . Fully to develop the rich and varied productive resources of that country , railways are indispensable ; and in a political point of view , it would bo difficult to estimate too highly tho importance of such linos of communication . Recent events have too clearly shown tho necessity of providing for tho rapid concentration of troops on any point where their presence may bo required . Among tho several undertakings of this nature , which British entorpriso and cnpltal have called forth , none offer a fairer prospect of success than that which id now submitted to tho public . Tho commercial advantages to bo derived from opening out tho Valley of tho God . ivory , and tho Borar and Hyderabad territories , were pointed out to tho local authorities many years ago by tho lafco Lord Motcalfo , when Resident nt Hyderabad , and moro recently by Colonel Cotton , of tho Madras Engineers , in liia valuable publication , "Public Works in India . " In tho " Appondix to Minutes of Evidonoo taken boforo Select Committee on the Government of Indian Territories , " in 185 U , at page 161 it is stated , " If by means of railronds tho groat ootton-flold of Borar , situated within tho dominions of tho Nizam of Hyderabad , woro placed noarly on an equality , in point of facility of transport , with tho inaritimo cotton distriots , then a breadth of land , sufficient for tho growth of a quantity equal to tho full demand of Great Britain , might at once bo nindo available . It is , however , only by means of a railway that tho territory of Borar can bo placed lu a position to bocomo a cotton-ox porting country . " Cotton , tho groat staple of Berar , would bo wrought down to a port of shipment at a very reduced mto of ohnrgo . That grown in tho vicin ily of Chanda is considered tho bost in India . AVhoat 1 h another vulunhlo product of Borar ; its comparative cost lu tho in toil or and on tho coast Is as 31 to 0 ( 1 , or a differonco of 113 por cant . ; while rioo , and salt , sugar , iio . Ac , which aro tho jproduots of tho coast , aro respectively 175 and 200 por cont , ( Jonror lu tho interior , owing to bho oxponso of transit ; . ( Boo Cotton , pp . 88 , 100 , 373 , 274 . ) Extensive forests of viUnnblo timbor would also bocomo nvailablo , affording au ample supply of sleepers for tho 3 ou « truotion of tho rnilwny . Toak , of tho largest dlmonjlonB , might bo brought to market at a much cheaper rato than that which is now imported into Corluga from tho op- ' [> osito coast of Burmali , Tho port ofCoringn , flltuatod at tho mouth qf tho Golavory , on tho oaatorn sldu of tho peninsula , and midway jotweon Ca 1 cv \ tta and MiuJIrns , 1 h tho only harbour on that ioast . Ships of larg « bunion havo boon built thoro ; and It ma ovory facility for loading and discharging oargo , bolng roo from tho surf which renders tho Qoromandol coaat golorally soinaoQossiblo .
