always enable them to defy all compe-
tition in the management of those great
branches of commerce that requires a
great capital for their transaction. The
united valuation of Philadelphia and
Baltimore in l849, was but one hundred
and forty millions. The East India and
Pacific trade excluding the vessels
bound to California, employsat the pre-
GENT time 259 ships, and l05 barks, Of
which not hardly vessel is owned in
Philadelphia or Baltimore, and with the
exception of few vessels owned in
Salem, is entirely controlled by New
York and Boston--New York having n
majority of the China trade. and Boston
controlling nearly all the Calcutta, Ma
Mia, Batavia, Sumntra, Cape Of Good
Hope, and Chilli and Peruvian trade. 1t
will be seen from these statements, that
the principal commercial operations of
this country are directed at the two
great northern cities, and that no
others can successfully onter the lists
with them. Both Philadelphia and Bal
timore greatly exceed Boston in popu-
lation, and are destined probably to ex-
ceed in far greater proportion than ut
present, and nothing can hinder those
cities from being great and fourishing
marts of t-ade, but they will always be
greatly inferior to Boston, in their rank
md position in fIreigu commerce..

COMMERCE. OF THE AT.
LANTIG CITIES

AS we glance our eyes over the At
lnntic seaDoard, and see the fiourishing
and populous marts of commerce and
trade at different points, we naturally
wish to know the relative commerce OF
each port, and what cities are destined
to lead the race for commercial supre-
macy, The four leading commercial
ports are Boston, New York, Phil
adelphia and Baltimore. The cities
Of Charleston, Savannah, Mobile and
New Orleans arc great shipping ports
for the products of the South and West,
but the amount Of tonnage owncl At
those places is inconsiderab ad thoii
import trade is small, consequently sc
shall not incinde these ports in our con
sideration Of the commerce Of the coun-
try.
OF the four principal ports New York
takes the lead, and her Imports are con-
siderably more than all the rest of the
country Next comes Boston, with about
one fifth Of the commerce of New York,
then Philadelphia with considerably
less than one half and Baltimore with
about one fourth OF that Of Boston. New
York imports about $50, 100000 Of goods
Boston S30000,000 20 $4,000, 900, Phil
adelphia Sl4000,000, and Baltimore
eS,0O0,000. Although the latter named
cities have n very respectable foreign
trade, yet the commerce Of this country
may be said to be controlled by the
cities of Boston and New York. These
are the only ports that have Il general
and extensive commerce. Philadelphia
and Baltimore export tobacco and bread
stuffs to various ports, and have quite a
largo trade with several Of the West
India Islands, South America, and Eu-
rope, but at many important ports their
vessels are never seen. Tho vast Enst
India trade is entirely controlled by the
merchants Of Boston and New York, so
is the trade with Russia, the Medltter.
ranean, South Africa, South Pacific,
Sandwich Islands and California. The
narrow and somewhat restricted COM
mcrce Of both Philadelphia and Balti-
more must always cause them to be tri-
butarY cities to their northern rivals,
and they can never take their places in
the front rank as great commercial cities,
while they have to buy at second hand
from their neighbors. Of course for the
sale of innumerablo articles, Of which
hey are the sole importers, the mer-
chants Of Boston and New York have
the decided advantage The immense
wealth of these two cities amounting TO
the enormous sum in the aggregate Of
6ve hundred millions Of dollar viii

HISTORY OF THE Kossuru MAMA. .--
Tho following private letter, written by
Baltimore gentleman to friend in
England, and published in ono Of the
London papers, may be read as a COM
pendious history of the doings Of kossuth
in the United States. 1t is a summary
of the whole matter, equally compre-
hensive, clear rational, and impartial
" We have had very pleasant little
excitement with your European adven-
turer, kossuth. He is certainly clever
talker but, ! fancy, nothing more, for
his mistakes have been Of very serious
character. If he had acted with iudg-
mcnI he might have given us trouble.
Had he proceeded modestly and quietly
to Washington, on his arrival in the
country, ingraliated himself with the
leading members of Congress, and the
Cabinet, he might, under color of pro-
vision for himself aud his comrades in
exile, have obtained large apprcpria-
ton OF money, which he could have used
for the purpose which he has so much
at heart always supposing that his pro-
icsslon be sincere. But instead of doing
this he has begun with the most arrc-
CANT pretensions personal and political;
has made the most iucendiary appeals
to tho people, in anticipation of the de-
clsion OF the government on the question
of Intervention in European affairs has
assailed the settled policy of the United
States, criticised the wisdom of Wash
ington and has ended by revolving the
good sense CT the country from his cause,
and in great measure from all sym,
pathy with himself Later than at the
eleventh hour he has discovered that
theAmorican people, besides their power
have character which their intelli-
gencc teaches them is we'll worth pre-
serving and in single word he has

THE JAPAN EXPEOlTI0N.

Tho Japan expedition, about to sal.
under command OF Commodore Perry
will not be tho first American armament
to unfurl the star-spangled banner in
those remote waters, nor will it be n
demonstration, even, comparable so far
as the number Of guns is concerned, with
that made by the feet under Commo-
dore Bidd.e, in 1916. The present ex-
petition will not exceed seventy guns,
we are told, whereas that under Com
modore Biddlc, as most OF our readers
who take an interest in these matters
Will probably remember, had one hun
dred and fourteen guns OF large calibre.
The complement of men, however, we
arc informed, will be about the same.
The nature of the interesting busi-
ess on which Commodore Perry is about
to be dispatched, and the important
commercial, political, and scientific re-
suits that are expected to flow from it,
have been the occasion Of extended re-
mark in these columns hitherto and we
have but little to add now, in further
explanation, beyond the fact that not
only Japan, but tho East India Archi-
pelago in general, is to be a field of use
fulness for the squadron which is not to
be left unimproved should circumstan-
ccs afford the requisite facilities to a
profitable prosecution of the ends in
view.
The adding an expedition of this char.
acter, Of two steamers and Il storeship,
to the force we have already in the East
Indies, will enable us to cover an ex-
tent Of cruising ground that will give
us a better knowledge than we have at
present Of the ports on the Corea and
the Yellow Sea, hitherto not often Wis
tied. Nothing will be done, that we
arc apprised of to excite justly the ap-
prehension Of the inhabitants, yet moth
ing will bc left undone with view to

and our countrymen The japanese
are warlike race, and such Of our un.
fortunate seamen as have been thrown
upon their inhospitablc coasts by the
winds and the waves, as we all know,
are ready to testify that their concep-
tions of amity and friendship for foreign
nations are not those which are supposed
to govern nations less barbarous. To
meet as should be met any disagreeable
contingency that tho Expedition may
have to encounter from any such hostile
manifestations di played towards itself,
or as exhibited, towards American sea-
men cast on their coast, Com. Perry
has prudently taken with him few
guns, which the most enthusiastic mem
ber of the Peace Society may rest as
surod he will never needlessly, incau-
tiously, or inhumanly employ. For our
own part, we have every confidence
that, ere the Commodore returns, much
will be done to remove the stubborn
prejudices of the semi-barbarous races
that occupy that portion of the earth
preparing the way for civilization and
enlightenment where all is now igno-
rance, barbarty, and heathcnism, and
20 that extent benefitting them as they
have never before been benefited. The
extended and extending commerce of
our country in the Pacific, of late years
greatly accelerated by the settlement
and organization of California, is sadly
in need of ports to enable vessels, par.
ticularly whalers navigating those wa
ters to refresh and re6t. This is de-
sideratum, in q mercantile point Of view,
alone worthy the Expedition. And when
we superadd the desirable extension Of
our know edge of Northern China, and
the innumerable rich islands adjacent,
we think it will be agreed on all hands
that the field to which the Expedition
is sent IS noble one, and one that, view
it in whatever aspect we will, morally
politically, or commercially, has fruits
in store for us we'll worth the compara-
lively little trouble and expense it costs
to gather them,
A great deal has been said of late,
we remark, by certain presses, in dis
paragement Of this Expedition some on
the hypothesis that This Government con-
templates waglnS war against the Ja-
panese rs merciless and unjust as that
which Great Britain has waged in
China. Others, again, moved by the
petticst prejudiccs, have uujustly sought
to throw discredt on the EXPEDITION as
an unwarrantable assault upon a de-
fenceess people In either case it is
hardly worth while saying, nothing is
farther from the truth The law of hu-
mnnity, the law of nationo, the common
law of self-protection and sclf-preserva-
ton all justify the enterprise : and let
it be added we find none objecting to
it or carpins at it save only those who
make it their business to find fault with
this Administration for whatever it does,
in development Of that enlightened and
patriotic policy which has ever dist,n-
guished it's management Of the foreign
relations Of the colntry-N. Y Express
