STATES MAIL MSHIP
Y-THROUGH PASSAGE TO
C4IJEORNI7

V'HE public will be grati6ed 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 desrous 10 go out, to sell tickets for
through passages from Panama in advance, for
their ships then going round This was done
from desire To accommodate 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 difficulties, and the preva-
ence 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 impauence 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 and 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'
patch
Their Pacific Line, from Panama to San Fran

! 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,

T EONARD SCOTT & Co, No. 81 Gold str. /
/ 4 Nsio York, continue to publish the four lead
ing British Quarterly Reviews and Blackwood
Magazine; IN addition to which they have recent
ly commenced the publication of valuable Agr-
cultural work, called the
" FARMER's GuDE TO SCIENTIFIC AND PRAcrIoAL
AGmCULTURE,"
BY HENRY STEPHENS, T.. r. s., OF Edinburgh au-
thor of the Book Of the Farm, &c, &c; assisted
10y JoHN Z. NoRToN, M "A, New Haven, Professor
of Scientific Agriculture in Yale College, g. :, &c
This highly valuable work will comprise two
large royal octave volumes, containing over ,400
pages, with lS or 90 splendid steel engravings
and more than 600 engravings on wood, in the
highest style of the art, illustrating almost every
implement of husbandry now in use by the bes
farmers, the best methods Of ploughing, planting
hayIng, harvesting, &C., &c, the various 'domes
Tic animals in their highest perfection; in short
the pictorial feature of the book is unique, and
will render 1t of incalcuabe value to the student
Of agriculture.
The work is being published in semi-monthly
numbers of ia pages each, exclusive OF the Stee
engravngs, and is sold at 25 cents each, or IS foI
the entire work in numbers, Of which there will be
at least twenty-five.

The WESTMINSTER REVIEW (Liberal.)
AND
BLAcKwoop' EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
Although these works are distinguished by the
political shades above indicated, yet but small
portion ofther contents is devoted to political sub
jecs. Ii is their literary character which gives
them their chief value, and in that they stand con
fessedy far above all other journals ofther class

Christopher NORTH maintains its ancient celebrity
and is, at this time, unusually attractive, from thu
serial works o? hulwer and other literary notabes

States. Such works as ''rhe Caxtons" and an,
New Novel" (both by Rulwer,) "My Peninsula

of which numerous rival editions are issued by tn
leading publishers in this country, have to be re
printed by those publishers from the pages o
