Thu answer to this is simple. In the list place, the Belgian oval mad coke, though decidedly iaterior In quality to the English, enjoy the inordinate advantage of bet eg admitted into France at less than one-third of the dory paid by the letter; and is the seat place, it has the midi , tionot advantage of being carried to nearly all the great northern towns, and thole on the Brine and Paris, by mugs aid canalised riven, at a much lower rate o f f re i g ht, in eluding canal dam, han an be approached by the English. For the information of thus of our readers who are no: in. timely acquainted with the fees, we subjoin a statement of the rate of duty and freight respectively paid by the two competing anntries : Doty on B leen coal Ditto on English tool Duty on &L i lian cake ....• •• • 3 30 „ —or 2.. 9d.

If we are, .as la said. on term of saleable alliance with the French Ratios, we ask, ia the nun* of common sense, why we me plated is ets aatavourablet—we ought to say &grad' —a relative petition ? The ease is precisely u respects iron. As a purely runway qa the Pruett government were to levy an equal daty on tbe produce of both enuairies of four funs per ton on melt, sad eight francs on coke, they would derive an auguiewation of from this source of from four to dee millions of duns per annum, and by thus placing the competition on a mars tab and equitable footing, they would secure to their consumer the asiquistiosable advantages milkier from the duke of two powerful parties to pewees, the trade, instead of the leader musks of one oaly,who through undue prefennee has almost a monopoly. Most of the English coal now sent into France is foe the supply or government contracts, which paying no duty, leaves the Belgian competition without a thanes of maven even at the port of Calais. when the Magid, as we bays shown, is so comparatively low ; this fact of Eself is sufficient to explain what could be d o ns if the duty was eqwelimd. The question will naturally suggest itself, why this Ohneelleioll was ever made to the Belgians ? We can truly sewer it by nferring to the saved poicy of the late King Loafs Philippe, who stopped at any ssuilifie whore the siggrandieemset of his owa family was enneramd; we therefore believe the Belgians may thank their rood Queen for this extraordinary &lento's. In conclusion, we cannot too strongly recommend this question to the serious consideration of the eon-owner ; nor can we doubt that an energritio representation en the subject to our own governmeat from so influential a body would, if renamed in, be predaetive of beneficial muds. We dues this matter of so mash Importanee, that we shall probably refer to it again. THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT AND THE ENGLISH COAL TRADE. Ws called the attention of our radon, ia •recent number, to the duties levied by the French goundseat on English and Belgian tools respectively. The object we had In vie w lan furaisking that information was more to wenn* the at tension of our cub/anus to ths actual relative position of the mounting parties than to distract that attention by dilating en what could have no practieal inflames on the question— ers refer more particularly to a ennimunittatian which will be found elsewhere—of the fact, of whit% we were perfectly cognisant at the time, that Belgian auk and auks are *ab ject to the tune rate of duty as English when imported by set; but as no such importations take pleat, or if any, they are so petfcetly insigoifi mut that we deemed it anima to com plicate sample statement of tuts, true 'sheet', by referring to a mere provision of the law, which, as fu m the Beglish coal owner is eoncerued, is of no rams value by way of equalise. tiou than though it had been omitted altogether. We re. peat, therefore, that, practically speaking, English coals arid coke are subject to a higher rate of duty on entering France of mom than two-thirds of that pald on Belgian. Why in thin, we ask spin. We trust the same question sill be asked by others infinitely more inflamed.' than ourselves. If the French_ government urge . as a pretext for that fa voiding the Belgian, to the prejudice of the Berlish pro dooms and French consumers, ;bat they have a direct in terest in festering, by reelection, their Inland navigation, we would have some right to salamis that they thought their sea-going merchant marine saftlefeatly Meowed in the myst..nes of scummy as to be able to compete with the teacher ships of otter nations on the broad and legitimate bases of " equality ;" but let us see, then, how far the facts bur out this assumption.

The vessel In . question to ce lied tit? Gemini, and is, in fact, two iron boats Join , d together and having the propul‘ive power in the eters in the shape of one gegontie p eddle-wneel. Twin boats have loeg been used in river and nasal navigation both in this country an.t in ATOCTiCPI, but their semen hen ben greatly obatratted by the (91fleoltics which their ounstrootion pleciA is the w..) of the great desideratum, speed. It bad always been found that the concentration of what is technically called the back water, i e., the risottos caused by the rotation of the paddle-wheel in the centre of the body to be moved, was a serious obstacle to proems., as by its conrantly 'urging up, it seriously impel d the smite of the wheel. Thia defect, the patentee of the present vessel (If r. Peter Borne) has stught to remedy by making his two vessels, as it were. sectiocrof one, sueh sections, by their division and the inters, ration of the paddlewheel, *iliac a greater amount of deck-room than in vessels with external paddle whirls, and *inter steadiness of motion then cou'al be ob. tined under the old system, while the peculiar construction of their inner bilge diminished the chance of frieVott with the water. Another, and moat important point to be achieved by the new construction, was the avoidance of any lateral disturbance of the supporting fluid, so aa to adapt the viral to narrow river, or canal navigation, where the modes of a Wismar is ussielly found to womb away the banks. With respect to thee:pertinent of yesterday, the appearance of the decks cm dec gels g aboard, rand that the first object had been achieved.

Bn4—Fi sre adial tbe in r e nn i c r ip in al etthek district grased I in which Sas sex heart. deter mined to hoped one of the best herds of this breed. With that view 'came to Beckley, on the borders of Sum, where Mr. Samuel Salines, of Knell Farm, long kept a large heed of Sussex cattle, which have attained much more than local celebrity, though the breed has never feted favour much beyond the con fines of Kent end Sussex. On the eastern side of the Weald of Keat, bounded by the English Channel, lies the extensive and rich grazing district, Romney Marsh ; and the same sort of land erns& into Sumer by Rye and beyond Winchelses. It has evidently been Awned by the receding of the sea, which recession is still going on. Around Rye, Winchelses, there are extensive tracts of sandy land which bears at present a little scanty herbage, but which would by and by, in the progress of time, also become grazing ground. I oonld not h e lp t hi n ki ng t h at t hi s l and might be improved at ate by the use of the same means by which similar sandy wastes in Belgium have been fertilised end brought into cultivation, namely, by sowing bro3m, *parry, and other green crops, for the purpose of ploughing them in, and so giving to the soil vegetable matter and consistency; and I was told that Mr. Jeremiah Smith, of Rye, one of the largest farmers and hop growers in Sieve, has very success fully improved this sort of land, and brought it into a very productive state. Some portion of this level tract is still protected from the inroads of the sea by an embankment be tween New Romney and Ilythe, called Dymcburch Wall, which is more than three miles in length. The is maintained by a rate levied on all the marsh lands. That portion of the climb which is eituated in Kent is about twelve miles in lecgth, and about eight miles is its greatest width, end contains 44,000 acres. There is a large extent of marsh lend, part of the same level tract which extends in Sussex about half as many acres u in Kent. This marsh land varies a vod deal in composition and fertility. Much of the border of the marsh adjoining the uplands is heavy, stiff, and wet, while much of that near the seas is light and trendy, and liable to burn during the summer. The but pas tures lie between the two, sal on these beasts and sheep feed rapidly and to a great teem Much of the ninth land is in arable culture and produces large swots of grain and roots; and I apprehend the greater portion, perhaps all except tee brat feeding pastures, would be most profitably converted into arable land. Spiny of fresh water are met with in certain parts of the marsh, but generally there is a deficiency of water, which forms an additional reason for convert ing as much as possible of this level into loge. Driining is r quired upon much of this marsh land, by which it would be greatly im proved. The system of cropping the arable and marsh land is to take wheat and beans in alter nate yam, occasionally substituting oats or turnips for the beans. As may be supposed, where this course is purened.witliont ample supplies of ma nure, es is too generally the cape, even the naturally fertile alluvial soil is not in high condition ; though with every disadvantage such is the abundance of straw. at all events grown, that this year u much as ler.. per acre was required and given for cuttimr the wheat crop. From four to five quarters of wheat per acre is said to be the average produce, the quality not being very good. Large crops of oats are grown here, and turnip, radish, and mangoll seeds are grown for the London Beadsmen. An immense number of sheep are bred and fed in these marshes; the second rate land, which will keep hem two to three ewes per acre during the winter, and about twice that number in the summer, being need foe breeding pur poses ; while the fattening land will carry four or five sheep per acre through the winter, and feed them in the summer. About 30s. per acre is the rent of the breeding land, and 40s. and upwards are paid for feeding land in the marshes. These sheep are entirely of the Kent or marsh breed. It is a white-faced, long-woolled breed, with large frame, somewhat high on the legs, and a heavy but not well-shaped carcase. The wetbers at twe wears old will when well fattened weigh about 12 stone. Some efforts have at various times been made for the im provement of this breed; in particular, Mr. Richard Goold, of CAshall Farm, near Milton, commenced in 1795 the creation of a flock which has attained some local celebrity as " new Kents." In that year he selected nine ewes and a ram from Rom ney Mania, and, with the exception of using a few rams afterwards obtained from Mr. Wall, a careful breeder of such stock, be preduced many thousand sheep ; he adhered strictly to the principle of in and in breeding. Mr. Gaold has retired from bungee., but his flock is maintained by his successor, Mr. Fullegar. It is said that the improved Kents come early to maturity, have a large carcase, are broad on the boa, and deep bodied, and that their wool is both long and fine. The marsh grseere, however, have not adopted this breed to any extent, it being objected that it is too delicate for mach exposed situations as they are kept in. Recently several of the Kentish flockmuters bare used Cabrera rams for their Kent ewes, and the improvement is the stock front that crop is very great. The Cotswolds are well fitted to correct the sunk and mis-shapen carcase of the Kenn, and are as well calculated to bear exposers as the Kent. them selves. The Kent sheep are long-legged animals, not very straight in the back, and have heavy pot-bellied carcasses, indicating slow-feeding qualities and mach offal ; their hardy constitution being one of their chief recommendations. But that hardihood doss not seem to imply a vigorous appetite ; for I was told that Kent sheep will starve on pastures where Southdowas will thrive : and, as I know from expensese that bath Cotswolds and Leicester. will do well on pastures which are too bare or too much run over for the Southdowne, I had a tolerable measure of the real hardihood of Kent @beep. Bat the system of the Romney Marsh flock masters seems to be one not much ealcolated for the improvement of sheep. They depend almost exclu lively on the paeans load for malarainiag them through tbe wiater,as well as in the seamier, sad it is only during very severe frosts, or when snow is on the ground, that their old sheep litter bay or a few turnip.. Such treatment cannot, of course, be borne by the lambi; eenseqaestly, from the beginning of eeptember to the begisalng of April, all their lambs are sent kag diatoms, up the country to be wintered. The prise paid for the winter's tee, b about 51. a 603 f., aid in the majority of eases they are very badly kept, returning to the marshes is the spring is a half starved condi tion. So weak are these poor creatures that great slumbers die on being put on the rich mush pastures. Than is no doubt that by better provision In the mesh district, such as the erectile of yards and Asa; the cultivation of roots, and perhaps the plant et trees or hedges for shelter in very exposed sttiatieier • tired many of the lambs bred in the mein be wintered there. It is admitted that thigreithinftsatmtish breeders are want of care and atbetilmitteelestiagthebreedingsteckand insufficient feed is resrlag the lambs. I met with instances in which the following arrangement is made, vie.: the lambs when put out to keep are valued; and re-valued i n the spring when sent home, the owner paying the taker-in the difference, whatever it may be, between the valse of the lambs in spring and is autumn; if Hap is no human of value or a deterioration, the taisse-in gets nothing for the winter's keep. I did not bats, however, that this plan his been extensively adepted. Mani_ lambs are taken in to keep by bums in the Weald end other parts of Kent and Mum who have literally no other provision tor Hsu Van wheat, oat, or clover stubble., with as 01111111inal change to the meadows; and after Christ en tiny live principally oa the hedges and sews. It is mid that they often go horns rag"with nearly all the wool of their necks to elessldses, and partially from the body,! nand by _their habitual resort te the hedge row for fool.

AEI he eiße, that trittitil the la 4t tw9:YriCr lit h lesi 18,000 actes won this system. is adopted, and Iri bond that on farms where two or three thou mead chsep . might have been permanently well kept, after the wintered lambs had been seat away, there were not more than two or three hundred sheep belonging to the occupiers, and I was not surprised to heir that gassing in Romney Marsh has been for some yeses pest considered bet an indifferent business. This gentleman, a farmer and surveyor of great expe rience, distinctly stye that fifty years ago, when the Weald farmers used to wean and bring up Sussex bred calves, keeping a sufficient number as oxen to do the work of the farm, and supply the hill farmers and hop growers of Kent and Suers with good oxen and steers of alleges, the condition of their farms tend supply of manure were better than at present. And all I observed leads me to believe that the substitution of sheep for cattle has not proved beneficial to the fanners of the Weald. In this pert of Sussex the arable land is chiefly cultivated in a three-course shift: 1. Wheat; 2. Oats; 3. Seeds, beats, or peas, and the greater part a naked fallow. On this fallow lime is the chief manure used, though in many places it costs more for carnage than the first cost of the Tine, and having been now too often repeated, produces little effect. There are many parishes where this system is pursued in which 18 to 20 bushels of wheat and 20 to 24 bushels of oats have been taken u the average pro duce for the purposes of the tithe commutation. Here there is much inferior pasture lend which might be usefully broken up if properly cultivated afterwards ; but where such a system and such results as I have mentioned exist I am not surprised to find landowners unwilling to permit their present tenants to break up pastures. Yet some of these farmers persist in main tainirg hop gardens front which they do not grow more than 8 cwt. or 9 cwt. per acre on an avenge, and have to compete with growers who predate from 15 cwt. to 20 cwt. to the acre. Whet can be the use of continuing such unequal competi•ion ? And yet the term is robbed of the little manure that can be obtained to supply the hop garden. Thi■ is the kind cf hop-growing which bete brought the occupation into disrepute. I have nowhere met with so little of hopefulness or helpfulness among the ordinary class of farmers as in the Weald of Kent, and the adjoining part of Sussex, where the soil and system are similar, and I meet say that unless they can find means to em Ploy more capital I do not see how they can continue their occupation". As a person in the neighbourhood observed to mo—" they seem cowed ;" and I confess with such crops as they grow it appeared to me that the sooner they take fright and abandon their occupation altogether the better. That there is good farming in Sussex is cer tain, but the standard of cultivation amongst the ave rage f amen is a low one, and without energetic aid from the landlord', I do not see how it can readily' be raised in the lands of the actual tenantry. I found on arriving at this plan that Mr. Selmer bad lately retired front business, and that his farm had been taken, with all its stock, by Mr. Tilden Smith, the present occupier. Mr. Smith - bu the entire herd of Susan cattle, which Mr. Selena during a long life brought to great perfection, and the a .me attention they received from their former owner they appear to receive from Mr. Smith. I was not lucky enough to find Mr. Smith at home, but his son showed me the I greater part of the stock, and explained to ins the system of management. The farm consists of twelve hundredacree,of which the larger portion is rich marsh pasture land; the remainder rather stiff arable. The arable land is'wellcultivated,and produces an average of four quarters of wheat to the acre. No wheat has been threshed of this year's growth, so that I conl4 not learn the proportion it bears to last year's crop, which was admitted to be beyond the usual avenge; but several of the workmen who had worked for many on the farm told me that they bad never before seen so Ilarge a crop of straw grown on the term. This ti what I have everywhere noticed on well-cultivated i clay land this year. The course of cropping pursued Mr. Smith is, lit, part swede turnips fur feeding his busts during the winter in yard., remainder a bare Mow, part of which is manured and part limed for wheat; tad, wheat; 3rd, oats; 4th, sects, chiefly mown once. The supply of manure derived from the feeding beasts keeps the land in good condition. There are several large and apparently productive hop-gardens, which require and receive large dressings of manure, a cart-load being applied to every five hills. and there are, I was told, twelve thousand hills in a garden of eleven acres. In the she cp management of this farm there was nothing peculiar, the lambs bred on the marsh being put out to keep, as is usual with other occupiers of marsh lands. In his Sussex cattle Mr. Smith eertaitly passeests a herd, the inspection of which will repay any breeder fur a visit to this district. Their late owner, Mr. Selmer, some years since challenged the late Lord Althorn to show a certain number of short horn oxen against an equal number of Mr. Selmes' Sussex lames, and though I believe the short burns were successful in the competition, I am now satisfied the challenge was tot quite so rub as it would perhaps be generally considered. In fact, however, no true competition can take place between a herd of Sussex and • herd of short horns ; they are animals of eseentially different characterietice, and adapted for entirely different systems of management. For early maturity the Sasses beast cannot apprea.th the short horn ; but, as a beast of draft, to be after wards fattened when nine or ten years old, I appee bend an cox of Mr. Smith's herd might safely chal lenge the world. The herd is a large one, to less than forty calves being nand annually, and all are kept until sold off fat. Each calf runs with the cow till three mnmhs old, Iwhen it is weaned, fed for a short time with a little oilcake and put into good grass. Some of the oxen, and each of the heifers as mho calving, are fed off at early ages; bat others of the oxen are worked until eight, nine, or ten years old, and then fattened for two years on the marsh, and sometimes finished in the yards on railcar, hay, and turnips. The heifers and steers are kept on the marsh during the winter, hay being given in severe weather. I saw 22 two-year old in-calf heifer., of good sire, and some of them of very great beauty. I noticed, however, considerable varesuon of colour, some beirg of that dark red which denotes hardihood and pure blood, while others were of a light red colour. This is attributed to the very close breeding adopted by Mr. Selmer., chiefly because he could seldom find a bull of this breed fit te match with his own stock. The majority, however, are of the tree deep red. Amongst the older cows there were several which in breadth of hip, straightness of back, and ferias of the thighs, might compete with short-horns; one in particular. the dam of a boll Mr. Smith is rearing, I should like to as brought oat at the Royal Agricultural Society's show. A fat ox, ten years old, and a fat cow, eight years old, beat of which will proba bly make their appearance at the next Smith field Club fat stock show, in London, are worthy of the best attention of stock kr epere. This ox has been worked in the team, and this is really the strong point of the Sussex cattle. Mr. Smith works a team of eight oxen, breaking them in at three years old, and feeding them on grass only in the summer, and on straw and turnips in the winter. These working beasts are in good condition, and oxen so well suited to the purpose I never saw; though I could scarcely understand :the necessity :for using eight in one team at plough. It seems that Mr. Selmes used many more oxen for work than Mr. Smith does, who, until be took Knell farm,',used horses exclusively; and it struck me that the only substan tial reason for working oxen at all was to allow some of the largest and best of the Sussex beasts to arrive at their full maturity and development. The _question whether or no it is desirable to promote the improve ment mod extensios of this truly fine breed of stock, de vends upon tie prellidelsesse or otherwise of employ ing oxen in farm laser. With the exception of certain localities, the agylegtaril speentanity has decided in favour of the realer prolltablestess of horse labour bat I am by no maim sere that decision is final. I know several farmers who have recently begun to um oxen, since railways have enabled them to convey most of their prodigals to market, and who find ex labour cheaper and not lees eMeint on the farm. Should that practise =had, this Seem stook might to come in for a larger• share of Roth* than it has lately received. After working four or five years, the Sussex beast may be fattened to a great use, though, even then he is I inspect a large con. suer, es sub aa twelve pounds of oil-sake • day being give* to him when feeding in the yard. That Is one-&m.th more than a short horn ox would require. And Sarsex cows are bad milkers, a fault which has Probably prevented the extension of the stock beyond Kent and Salem. To oorrest this they are crossed with the Jersey and Alderney breeds, and at Beckley I saw five heifers bred by Mr. Rossell,• small fanner, by o Spier: bullomt of half bred Sussex and Jersey cows, which were very neat and promising either foe the stall or the pail. Mr. Smith usually sends off 30 tat beasts at Christmas, chiefly of his own breed ing, and then fills up their places in his yards with Welsh rents. Notwithstanding the perfection to which his herd of Sven cattle has been brought, I bAteive that unless he has a demand for them as breeding stock—which I Aid not learn to be :he cams —or unless he can make them more profitable warkera than hot e!e, Mr. Smith would find a good herd of short horns more profitable on his very useful farm than Sussex stock. lie would feed mere in numbers, bring them oat fat at an earlier age, and produce besets of higher quality from short horns. It may be said that with snob a herd as Mr. Smith's he can scarcely be expected to change it at perhaps some considerable cost ; but had I that herd—always assuming that pure bred Sussex stock of the best type is not in demand for breeding purposes at good prices—l would at once use short horn bulls; in a faw generations a most valuable herd would be the r set. A MIDLAND COUNTIES FARMER. THE ENCUMBERED ESTATES OF IRELAND. No. IX. (From a epeeist Corresiendent of the Daily Num) GALWAY. It is necessary that I should pause in my descrip tioa of oncember.ll treated in order to say something respecting the town of Galway. At the present mo ment the hopes and expectations of Western Ireland may be said to be centred in this place. It is, as it were, the key to the Irish fu'ure; a-.d there can be ro doubt that those who purchase estates in the western partoflrchnd will find them proportioned in value to the extent of the improvements in this important port. For Galway, as a town, lam able to say little. It is placed in a sort of hollow, between the bay which bears its name and L,ngh C rrib, which pours its waters into the tea by a ricer which purees through the town. Like many towns which have the advan tage of being uncommonly well washed and watered, the washing and watering is confined to its exterior wall=. A dirtier place than Galway it was never my lot to eater iu any country : dirtier to sight, to smell, or to touch. Take a back menet at Rome, the worst portions of a Gorman barrack, a F renc h tiAing village, ar.d a narrow court in Shorenitch,—imagine a comb:w.tioa of all their filthinesses, and you have an idea of Galway. WS is the less ext usable bv cause it is obvious that the town authoriti.s, unaaa'sted, might reality correct the evil. If necessary they might turn Lough Conib tbrongh cve.y street in Galway is the amine of a week; and certainly for fifty pounds they might construct at the side of the wooden bridge, in the very centre of their town, the finest bathing and washing place that could ever he devised, with a stream of water muting through it at tl.e rate of twenty miles an hour. Wnen the Count Strzelecki was administering the funds of the British Association in Ireland, he hid down a rule for the schools et which he supplied relief, that no child should have breakfast until he had been washed. If these who direct same cf the large schools which do so much ernlit to the town of Galway would act upon a somewhat similar rule, they would greatly km fit the population; and any plan may be commended to them that would enforce the convenience and duty of personal cleanliness. Galway is a town of gnat ateivity, which may account for the irregular way in which its strews and housed are disposed. There are a few houses wh;ch still retain signs of the ancient magnificerce of the place, but the hand of time has premed heavily upon most of its old buillinge, and those which are now terantable at all are crammed with poor iababitarta The streets ran in all directions, and have been built, as far as I can make Ole, without any regard to the position cf Galway as a seaport. To got to the har bour from the square which forms the centre of the town, you must turn through half a dcrm streets, west, south, and east, until at last you find yourself at point which, in a strai 4 ht line, would certainly not be four minutes' walk from where you started. Tte harbour, when arrived at . , is certainly a fine one. Ir can receive vends apparently of any torn age. Although well protected from every wind, it opens almost at once into the beautiful bay of Galway —a bay which might afford anchornge to all the fleets that ever have bern or that ever shall be. This harbour is, and well it may be, the pride of Galway. It is its hope oleo, and not, it must be admitted, without good reason. The railway which will connect Dublin with the town of Galway—the eastern shores of Ireland with its utmost western extremity--is most rapidly pro greeaing, and will be completed in eighteen months, or, at latest, in two years from the nee:sent tim e . Now, by exptvsa intim., this railway will bring Dub lin within kur hours of Galway, Holy head within nine hourr, and London within eighteen. It will ' only require an electric telegraph under the channel between Holyhead and Kingstown to bring London and Galway into almost instan taneous communication. There eeems no reason why that telegraph should not be laid down G. miles under water as well as 25. Now, observe the conse quence. Four days will be saved in communicating with the United States. The moat unpleasant, and often the meat dangerous portion of the voyage will be saved. The navigation of the River Mersey will be saved. Steam-vessels will be able to rim from the wharf-aide at New York into the New Dock in Galway Bay, in, say seven days, with out once shortening their speed ; Galway is in fact the ocean port of the United Kingdom. Nature has desi,ned it for the plane of communica tion between the new world and this portion of the old. And if Galway thus became a port for America, it is not unreasonable to believe that it would once more losrome, to so.ne extent, a port for southern Eu rope. It is in the direct line with Spain, with which originally it had great commerce. Looking at its natural advantages, it is impossible to conceive but that, at some time or other, Gal way will be a moat important town. We see the fishing village of Folkestone rapidly rising into a place of considerable consequence because it shortens by a quarter, or at most by half, an hour the line of communication between the metropolis of England and the metropolis of France. The genius of steam communication, which is steadily revolutionising society and the world, effected this. Ara those de ceived who hold a confident opinion that the same genius will work wonders for the port of Galway ? I believe not, though I mast frankly confess to the opinion that the " when 'I depends 'Ton many points which I far the good folks of Galway scarcely ap preciate. In the first place, the Galway people must bear in mind that they have to contend against not only strongly rooted custom, but what's equally powerful, deeply vested interests. The American trade has rooted itself in Liverpool: great and deservedly esteemed commercial houses have risen up in that vast mart of commerce which have vested their all in the Liverpool trade with the United States. The packet business forme no unimportant branch of Liverpool trade : and it la a branch which Liverpool merchants will be slow to relinquish. Galway has therefore nothing to hope for from a diversion of the Liverpool business: has the town the means of form ing a commerce of its own P I fear no one who knows Galway will be able to answer that question in the affirmative. A verylauda ble, bat at the same time a very ill-directed and unfor tunate, effort was made a short time since to start a direct line of communication between Galway and the States. Some Ordway merchants fitted out a steam ship called the Viceroy, and sent her on a voyage to America. The shop was ill-chosen—she was mush toe -small for the navigation of the Atlantic, sad she sailed from Galway Bay so deeply laden with crab that it was evident to every unprejudiced mind that she must be so mate rially delayed on the very first days of her voyage that it was beyond the bounds of possibility that, even under the most propitious circumstances, she could make a rapid passage out. The event fulfilled the expectation: sad this, unhappily, was not the worst part of the expedition. On her voyage home ward, last July, the Viceroy was wrecked on the carat of Nova Scotia, when she was, as it is said in Galway, some 50 or 100 miles out of her direct coarse. Rumour in Ireland does not deal sparingly with some who were concerned in her navigation. But the stories which are afloat may be true or false—l hair& t no opportunity or inclination to decide on them. There is one thing, however, which the result of the Viceroy's voyage ought to teach the Galway mer chants. It should show them that they may do b.ttor than to rely upon their own undivided exertions for making Galway a packet station to America. may be unable to tempt Liverpool merchants to the port, but there are a class of traders with Great Bri- UM poniard of a that of steam ships almost as 91 Y.
