Excerpt from The Civil Engineer and Architect's Journal, Vol. 2: Scientific and Railway Gazette, 1839

Another year has been added to our labours, and it is again a pleasant duty to lay before our readers a brief account of the progress of the two professions, to the service of which we are devoted. It will naturally be expected that in a year of severe financial embarrass. Ment, succeeding also to one so fertile in important results as was the last, there must necessarily be a falling off in the amount of what would otherwise have been effected, and a delay in the execution of many works, the completion of which is thereby retarded. Our own exertions, however, we have not suffered to flag under circumstances so dispiriting, but trust that so far as has depended on us, the present volume is worthy of its predecessor, and of the patronage with which our endeavours have been crowned.
