United STATES MAIL STEAMSHIP
CoMPhNY--THROU P.4SG7GE TO
CALIFORNIA

| rst' = i MAIL j = n M q II l.
COMPANY THROUGH P.aS1aGE no
| CALIFORNIA.
VVHE public will be gratifed to learn that the
| 4 United States Mail Steamship COMPANY are en-
abled TO announce that their ents re 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 desuous to 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 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-
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 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
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 and des
patch.
Their Pacific Line, from Panama to San Fran
cisco, consists of the
REPUBLIC, Capt HuDsoN.
TTHMUS, Capt HIrcHcoCK.
COLUMBUS, Capt PECK
ANTELOPE, Capt. AcxLEr.
Their Atlantic and Gulf Line, from New York
to- Chagres, Of the
GEORGIA, Capt. PORTER, U. S. N.
OHIO, Capt. SCHENcK, u. S. N.
FALCON, Capt. HARrsrEIN, U. S. N.
The connection between the two lines will be
carefully and regularly kept up, so that no delay
beyond the usual stay 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.

promote these interests, keeping entirely aloof
from party or party politics. A complete foreign

vocate. The proper steps have been taken in
Europe and America to lay the foundation of
direct foreign trade at the South, and to introduce
our coarse manufactures into the continental Eu-
ropean market. Ono object of the "CoTroN
PLANT" will be, as the organ Of direct trade, to
stimulate the South to carry out this important
measure.
We call upon the Southern merchants generally
to send us their business cards, that we may lay
them before the country, to enable the friends of
Southern commerce, manufactures, &C., to dis
crmnate properly in their desire to promote South
ern enterprise.
of location for such journal, especially in regard
to opening foreign correspondence and promoting
our foreign relations, is apparent. The opportu-
