Text: Deptford, a large old town on the south bank of the Thames, in the county of Kent, about 3 miles from London Bridge, has two parishes and an ancient dockyard, used as a Royal dockyard, established by Henry VIII, who also first erected here a storehouse. It has since become a victualling establishment, and, recently, a capacious naval storehouse, with batteries of biscuits for the Royal Navy, the very ingenious machinery for which, and for other purposes, has been constructed by the Messrs. Rennie. The finest machinery in the world is employed in Deptford Dockyard, for spinning hemp and manufacturing ropes and cables for the service of the navy. The whole detail of this machinery is to be found in Vol. 8 of the Papers of the Royal Engineers. A striking proof of the relative superiority of rope manufactured upon Capt. Huddart's principle over that made by the old system, in point of strength and durability, was formerly afforded in the instance of the London and North Western Railway, employing it to propel the engines from Euston station to Camden-town, by an endless rope.
