United states NJ all Steamship Company are en-
abled to announce that their arrangement are now
complete for sending passengers through from
New York to San Francisco and back.
In the first attempts Of this Company to NEE,
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 go out, to sell tickets for
through passages from Panama in advance, for
their ships then going round This was done
nom desire to accommodate those who could
procure passages other quarter, and by
which, whatever might he 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 hom reaching Panama az soon
Ms anticipated, and caused detention at the 18TH
mus, which was increased by the Impotence Of
passengers in going forward, against the advice
OF the Company, at an earlier day than the ship
could possibly reach Panama.
These Interruptions now all removed.
Three of the four ships OF the Company, intended
tor 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 he performed with regularity and des-
patch.
Their Pacific Line, from Panama to San Fran
CISCO, consists OF the

GEORGIA, Capt. PORTER, u S. N.
OHIO, Capt. SCHENCK, U. S. NJ
FALCON, Capt. HARrsrEN, u. S. N.
The connection between the two lines will be
carefully and regularly kept up, so that delay
beyond the usual stay ofthe 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.
