FOR CALIFORNIA.
UNITED STATES MAIL STEAM SHIP
COMPANY-T,HROUGH PASSAGE TO
CALIFORNIA,

THE public will be gralifed to learn that the
| United States Mail Steamship Company are en-
abled to announce that their arrangements are now
complete for sending passengers through from
New York to San Francisco and back.
In the first attempts of this Company to meet
the wants Of travel to California, by providing
ships on the Pacific, in connection with their
ships from New York to Chagres, they were pre-
vailed upon, at the urgent solicitation Of the great
number then DESTROYS TO 60 out to sell tickets for
through passages from Panama in advance, for
their ships then going round This was done
from a desire TO accommodate those who could
procure passages in other quarter, and by
which, whatever might be the detention, they
would reach San Francisco sooner than by any
other line Unforeseen difficulties and the preva-
lence Of fever at Rio de Janeiro at the time, pre-
vented their ships from reaching Panama as soon
as anticipated, and caused detention at the 18TH
mus which was increased by the impatience Of
passengers in going forward, against the advice
of the Company, at an earlier day than the ship
could possibly reach Panama.
These Interruptions are now all removed.
Three of the four ships OF the Company, intended
for the Pacific service, have arrived at Panama,
and several of them have performed trips to San
Francisco aud back. So that the Company are
now able to give the public the assurance that the
voyage through from New York to San Fran
cisco, will be performed with regularity ana des-
Their Pacific Line, from Panama to San Fran
cisco, consists Of the
REPUBLIC, Capt. HUDsoN.
ITHMUS, Capt. HIrcHcocK.
COLUMBUS, Capt. PECK.
ANTELOPE, Capt AcKLEr
Their Atlantic and Gulf Line, from New York
to Chagres, Of the
GEORGIA, Capt. Porter, U. S: ~
OHIO, Capt. ScHENcK, U. s. N.
FALCON, Capt. HARTsrElN, U. 3. N.
The connection between the two lines will be
carefully and regularly kept up, so that no delay
beyond the usual stay of the ship IN port at Pana-
ma, will arise.
The large size, well known speed, and superior
accommodations Of their New York and Chagres
Line, and the speed and accommodations of the
ships of their Pacific Line, offer the most certain,
rapid, and pleasant through passage to California

NEw-ORLEAEs Sunday, Feb. Q.
When wrote you last, Spring was smiling at
the departure of Winter; but while we thought
her beauties were blooming, there came a FROST
bitter frost, and nipped her " in the bud" now,
again, it is warm-op preSsively hot and close
Southern hotels seemed doomed to destruction;
TWO in Mobile and the st. Charles here are heap
or heaps Of ruins. The St. Louis, at which we
now are, till lately untensnted and deserted, is
spacious, airy, and by the late essees of tho St.
Charles well conducted. 1t now accommodates
nearly four hundred persons.
Jenny Lind and Barnum are in town. followed
and sought after by 10000 strangers. The excite
ment is intense. The first sale of tickets realized
over $4,000.
The Custom House here is begun on graod and
magnificent scale-more SO than any other in the
United States. 1t seems to be progressing with
railroad speed, having a railroad all round 1t, the
more easily TO convey to their proper places the
huge blocks of granite of which it is being built.
Southern cities appear old and decaying when
compared with Northern. Building materials OF
all kinds decay much sooner here than at the
North. Pitchpine plRnks, of which the wharves
are constructed, last here, at the longest, but five
years; at the North they will keep some twenty
years.
Cotton market dull and Cotton declining.
Money market some what relieved bat not easy
