STEAM BOATS.—These. vosels, ivbieh have.;
hitherto heen confined chilly to river navigations„:
will probably soon come. into very general nse
for packets and passage vessels employed in deep
'Water. Within these two or three weeks one of
the steam boat:.went from This
.conotry, and nn-
vigated up the Seine to Paris, to the great sur-
prize of the !'Frisians, who already anticipate in-
numerable benefits from this mode of bavigalion.
In one word, the natural Inferiority of the Seine
to the Thames is to he compensated by the
powers of steam, and Paris, tire !Ong, is to. rival
London as an en(porium of ueneral commerce.
