NEW LINE OF STEAM COMMUNICATION.—On Se-
turday afternoon the fine screw steamer European left Lance •
field-quay for the Thames, on her first trip in connexion
with a regular sea communication with London, which it is
proposed to establish. It is announced that she will here-
after sail from the Clyde every alternate Saturday. She is,
we believe, expected to make the voyage in three or three
and a half days, taking the passage either north or south,
as may at the time of departure appear most favourable.
Whichever way is chosen, the distance to be traversed must
be more than 800 miles. The direct railroad route is only
about 400. The idea of a competition, therefore, wears at
hlitat\o-i having
rgettr)oedms carriedbered. without
any first sight a somewhat hopeless aspect; but in judging of
the feasibility of the scheme, the moderate expense of screw-
power, geouogf
any change of conveyance,f • trial '
at all events, have a airextended to it.—Glasgow

an inquest was held in one of the governor's private rooms at
