The project of establishing line of steamers
between Baltimore and Savannah, has met with
decided success. learn with pleasure that the
Company has already CONTACTED for the steamer
Granite State, new and superb propeller, owned
in Philadelphia, and that she will be placed on the
line at the earliest possible moment, to be follow
ed by another steamer as soon as occasion acquires.
This is the first decidedsIep towards enterprise
of great moment. The trade between Baltimore
and Savannah has been increasing so rapidly, that
some better mode of conveying freight has become
absolutely necessary. The new steamer of the
Baltimore and Charleston line will soon be ready

1t It's matter of high graduation to find that

with great earnestness in the New York canvass,
presents its readers with the following choice e&-
tracts from the speeches of some of the free-soiI
leaders in New York:
THE FREE-soIL HARMoNIsTs.
"The impuGent leaders who have gotup bogus
ticket for the purpose of defeating the regularly
nominated true democratic ticket, exhibit want

"In 1874, Nmong hundreds of like assertions,
John Van Buren, solemnly declared, If ever cast
vote for slavery, may die forsaken of man, and
accused by God.'
ssJohn Cochrane, the man who now speaks by
authority then declared that 'the opposers OF

Cochrane said at Syracuse, that they oil came
there to endorse it
