w. ElKor We wish To Vet our Maine
boys, who are gclur ~ California, know a
ltlr something hnw certain steamboat com,
panics manage t. take the advantage OF pas
scugers. II 1t is found that ihcrc Is a great
rush, tie fare Is raised. aud their runrers, who
have induced persons tn come here, under the
impression that tickets can be purchased at
low rates, are missing, aud another bargain y
to b. made. We further learn from the mouths
ct passengers, that the land route 10y san Juan,
instead OF being only ~ miles, is over - miles
and that Of she worst kind of travelling while
IN making the last trip, near 100 passengers
and a great part OF the luggage were leA at
san Juan. Ia a word. To tell the whole,
things generally are not as prnmiscd to the
passengers.
II an agent, Who is responsible, could b. in
Maine TO scll tickets, 40 that persons will know
joe, what they have to pay before leaving
home, u would protect them from, the common
imposition praclised here. Mr. W. II. Bow

Y, We understand, proposes to go To Maine
Tor this purpose From our knowledge Of his
connection with California Steamboats,, and
OF his reputation, We would recommend every
son Of Maine Who is going oui, to purchase
tickets Of him Iewill select the bet berihs
aud provide the best means for passengers to
cross the lsihmus with their luggage.
We expect To leave next Tuesday, IN tho
