The improvements in the mode Of conducting
commercial transactions, within the last few years,
have been of the highest Importance, and tend to
relieve those engaged in them, Of many OF the
and perPexites which, short time since, had to be
encountered by every commercial man.
The first Of these improvements, was the estab-
fishing OF what is termed express companies, for
forwarding merchandise in large and small quantl-
ties, jewery vauables, and every other species OF
properly that require care and attention in their
transportation Another of these improvements is
the magnetic telegraph, which has already laid the
foundation of a revolution in commercial matters.
which will probably astonish the most incredulous
before many years.
These improvements are Of modern date. and
from the advantages that have already accrued from
them, they are admitted to be necessary and highly
oenehclal to the Interests Of commerce. and the
veRlence and happiness Of the people.
We have, on former occasion, alluded to the rise
and progress Of the package express business in this
city, from the commencement Of the enterprise, by
one energetic man, until the present time, when all
the large cities are connected, and the whole coun
try intersected by them. These express lines are
OF incaculabe advantage to private individuals and
business people, from the punctuality perseverance,
and trustworthiness employed by their enterprising
proprietors, in the transaction of all business conf
ded to them, and the certainty there always has
been, OF the packages and merchandise received by
them, reaching their places of destination in the
quickest time possible and in an uninjured condi-
ton.
The following is correct list of all the express
companies now in operation in this section, to-
gether with the routes travelled by each:-

The CAPITAL OF WK SrArR.-The subject of
the removal OF the capital, which has been
discussed for a long time in all the papers Of
Western New York, was some time since refer
red by the Legislature to select committee, for
report thereon. The committee say, that should 1t
be decided upon to remove the capital, that Syra-
cuse or Utica is the best and most advantageous
place to have it located. There has been great
controversy between the citizens ofthese two places
for the honor, and the Recommendations Of the
committee will settle in the best manner possible
The plan recommended by the committee, Is TO
submit, in the rst place, the question Of removal to
the people at the next general election; and second
ly, II 1t be decided that there must be removal.
then, whether Utica or Syracuse Is to have the ho-
nor. This is certainly the best plan that could be
suggested and trust II will satisfy the citizens of
both these places. For our own part, we think il
quite immaterial whether the capital be removed
not, tor in these days Of steamboats, railroads,
and magnetic telegraphs, fifty or a hundred miles
can be easily travelled over, without much incon-
venience. We admire, however, the plan suggest
ed, for it is in keeping with the spirit Of our insu.
lions to submit every question Of general nature
like this to the judgment of the people at large
decision acquired in this way, cannot fail Of being
satisfactory to all parties.
