ocean Steam Navigation-lr. CoIlins-Ths
| New Line OF Steamships.
As soon as the great problem of ocean steam navigs
tion was satisfactorily solved and the feasibility Of
connecting the old wcrld and the new by steam
muniostion was prsctkcatly demonstrated it became
apparent that II the United States desired to mansin
the supremacy which she had for a great number Of
years previously enjoyed in the Of pas
sepgers and valuable freight between this country
France, England and Germany by her splendid packet
ships she must arouse herself nd enter upon q rsv
ned Of enterprise and competition in order to
much In OCEAN steamships she had in her sailing
vessels OF packet ships Notwthstsn ding thst 1t wa
to us new busipe that con. tructed But one
or two stssmships Of any magnitude ou enterrrsing
merchants boldly launched into this Of eater
prize. Their first productions were the steamships
washington and Hermsnn, Of the Bremen line N.
though these vessels not successful as they
were expected to be- and ell anticipated they would
be, they were, nevertheless highly creditabs to our
skll and enterprise and have neted handsome profits
o the company which own them. Their average pas
ages have not equslled those Of the Cunard lne Il
must be admitted; but on the other hand they have
made some runs as quick any that have ever been
made by the steamships Of any country These were
the first two steamships that the United States turned
cut
Since the building Of the Hermann and Washington,
~~N-
Il which are engaged in the coasting and Cafor-
MIA trade They embrace all the modern improve
ments In their hulls and.euginss, and are emnently
uccessfu In every point Of view not excepting speed
In which respect think they will compare fsvorsby
with any The last vessels that have been undertaken,
are the Atlantic the Pacific, the Artic and Antarctic
which, when completed will ply regularly between this
mort and Iixs,noo, Tb.y .ra h.,,a .,..,.,, -.
