lehwasally formed for the commercial purposes of
-Ipinunication between France and Ports in the Indian Seas,
teliat slipper-built Sailing Ships, have been considerably ex-

, sailing capacity, with auxiliary propelling power.
ea„',ll° undertaking combines all the elements of success that
oe contributed by each country. The newly-developed
tarnercial requirements of France afford high profitable em-
Plop,

the Of England provides the best immediate means ; whilst
bot-hcaPitali mercantile connections, and nautical genius of
imps, countries are united in a common object of the most
:gitaut and remunerate character. Under such ancou-
ng circumstances the Company have arranged. to com-
4be„a_ec operations at once by a line of Screw Clippers, of
1e,14t 2,400 tons average register tonnage, to sail regu-
IV from Havre to Calcutta, touching at the Ile de la
De,,Tlion (Bourbon), and Each other intermediate Indian

et:l4l4aunication, upon an early day with the Brazils, and via
ate3razils, with the Cape of Good Hope. The ships will call
