UNITED STATES MAIL STEAMSHIP
COMPANY.


lA THE public will be Rratifed 20 learn
1NEr that the United States Mail Steam
ship Company are enabled 20 an
nounce that their arrangements are now complete
for sending passengers through from New York 10
san Francisco and back.
In the first attempts Of thi, company to meet the
wants Of travel to California, by providing ships
the Pacific in counexion with their ships from New
York TO Chagres, they were prevailed upon, at the
urgent solicitation Of the great number then dcsir-
20 out, TO sell tickets for through passages
from Panama in advance, for their ships then 20.
ing round. This was done from a desire 10 accom-
mOdate those who could procure passages in no
other quarter, and by which, whatever might be
the detention, they would reach San Francisco
sooner than by any other line. Unforeseen ditH
cultics, and the prevalence Of fever at Rio Jauciro
at the time, prevented their ships from reaching
Panama soon as was anticipated, and caused de-
tcntion at the lsthnus which increased by the
impotence OF the passengers in going forward,
against the advice Of the company, at an earlier
day than the ships could possibly reach Panama.
These interruptions are now all removed. Three
Of the four shps Of the company, intended for the
Pacific service, have arrived at Panama, and sevc.
raj Of them have performed trips 90 San Francisco
and back; that the company are now able to
give the public the assurance that the voyage
through from New York TO San Francisco will be
performed with regularity and despatch
The Pacific Line, from Panama TO San Francis
co, consists Of the

OHIO, Captain schenck, L. s. "
FALCON, Captain Hartsteiu, L. $. y.
The connection between the two lines will be
carefully and regularly kept up 90 that no delay
beyond the usual stay Of the ship in port al Psns
ma will arise.
Their large size, well known speed, and superior
accommodations of their New York and Chsgres
line, and the speed and accommodations OF the
ships Of their Pacific line, offer the most certain,
rapid and pleasant through passage to California
