STEAM COMMUNICATION WITH THE
NORTH OF EUROPE.
On Saturday afternoon a party of gentlemen left
Lowestoft on board of the new steamer Prince, of 600
tons burden and 200-horse power, on an experimental
trip to Djerting,in Denmark, prior to the new Northern
Steam Packet Company commencing active operations.
The steamer, which is commanded by,Captain Hart, was
built by Messrs. Wilton, of London, on the plan laid
down by Captain Andrews, the harbour-master of
Lowestoft, and managing director of a new company.
She is admirably arranged for the carriage of both cattle
and passengers—a large traffic in both being expected
to be developed by means of the new steam-boats and
the Norfolk and Eastern Counties Railways between the
northern ports of Europe, London, Norwich, Manches-
ter, Birmingham, and other parts of Great Britain. The
passage between Lowestoft and Hjerting and Ballum,
the nearest shipping places to the cattle districts of Den-
mark and Zetland, will, it is anticipated, be performed in
from 24 to 26 hours. Upon the cattle being landed at
Lowestoft they will be received into sheds or stables
prepared for them, immediately adjacent to the harbour,
which, by the by, for coavenience of arrangement, can-
not be excelled by any harbour in the kingdom; and
thence, having been properly refreshed after their sea
voyage, conveyed to the London and provincial markets,
as may be deemed most advisable. We understand that
the greatest interest is felt by the Danish and other
Northern Governments in the success of the undertak-
ing, as it will open up to them a direct and certain com-
munication with England, totally independent of Ger-
many. It has already been arranged that the mails shall
be carried via this route, and the first post. bag will be
dispatched by it from London at five o'clock on Saturday
afternoon next, and reach Hjerting about one o'clock on
Monday morning, whence it will be conveyed to Copen-
hagen, where it will arrive on Tuesday. The vessel
will leave Hjerting with the return bag on Wednesday,
reach Lowestoft on Thursday night, and the letters be de-
livered in London on Friday. Irrespective of the saving
of time and the improved state in which the Danish
cattle will be brought to the market by means of the new
company, it offers many other advantages, not the least
of which to a large portion of the British public will be
the opening up to the tourist an almost new and untrod-
den district, rich in antiquarian remains, and offering to
the sportsman of every description—whether a disciple
of the gentle Izsak, or an admirer of the more exciting
incidents of the chase—ample opportunity of indulging
in his taste. How much this route is likely to be pa•
tronizA by our northern brethren is shown by the fact
that already, even before the first vessel has started
upon its public duties, some 50 or 60 Danes, Sweeds, and
themselves Norwegian Norwegians have aironexthpereirssiendtetuhder

third class, 11.
