the products Of your orchards, and Of your gardens
Don't presume that any animal, or proa1c'' you
NAV own is inferior to others that will be here,
and be thus deferred from bringing them, as 1t is
only NV comparison that the relative merits OF any
thing can be determined. The safer presumption
for YOU to arrive at, will be that what you have
is as good, II not better than that Of others, and
that II behooves you to gallantiy enter me ilst OF

THE public will be grati6ed 70 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 6rst attempts of this Company TO meet
the wants Of travel to California, by providing
ships on the Paci6c, in connection with their
ships from New York to Chagres, they were pre-
vailed upon at the urgent solicitation Of the great
number then de6rous TO 60 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-
lence Of fever at Rio de Janero at the time, pre-
vented their ships from reaching Panama soon
mus, which was increased by the impatience OF
passengers in going forward. agaiast the Adxics
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 and des-
patch.
Their Pacific Line, from Panama to San Fran
cisco, consists of the
REPUBLIC, Capt. HuDsos.
ITHMUS, Capt. HITcHCccK.
COLUMBUS, Capt. PECK.
ANTELOPE, Capt. AcKLEY.
Their Atlantic and Gulf Line, from New York
to Chagres, Of the
GEORGIA, Capt. PORTER, U s. N.
OHIO, Capt. ScHENcx, U. S. NJ
FALCON, Capt. HARTsrEN, us. 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.
