Tie Boston Trar,1ter mskes the following suz
gestions relative 10 California shipments from this
City. They are worthy Of attentions:
'fOur ffisnds at Neu-York, engaged IN shipments
IN California REFUGE 10 have published in full the n
gots OF heir ships but in m,cy instances large
part Of their shipments are reported in he shipping
is;s "a 90 maDy bsles cases boxes, Casks and .r'
rels OF merchandise Oar Boston carsoes, on the
contr,ry, are ulinuely described and sPecthed. Is
are all the other exports and Imports OF his city
We can ASSURE The merchants of New 1"rs eogageI
in this business that such course not only unit
to Boston but Is absolutely luxurious 70 Their snip
mente, end in most cases results in loss to the n,
rather thsn in profit Take the folio wing instance n
an example and proof: large ship loaded 10 New
York with an enormous assorted cargo. When she
cletred al the CuEtOn House her cargo WAS prhci.
pally described unspecified merchandise in elf
ferent lots A. the same tins Il )ston chip Tas,ad-
ing at this port and she sailed week or tao after
the New-York ship, and as the cargo Of tbs New
York vessel could lot be ascertsined, the Boston
chip was loaded without reference to her cargo
THE Boston ship arrived frst, with larger qu,n-
titles Of similar goods TO the New Yorker, which
were tod, yielding bandsome profit to the damage
Of the New ork Shippers whose goois arrived after
ward on full market. lad the b stcn mer Ia ants
known the New. York cgrgo in detail, they would
perhaps have not sent the same articles or at least
in tuch large quantities consequently the New io:k
shippefe wOulo have had the market TO themse.vzs.
umerabie instances might be given where this p N
of coDcesliDg shipments cannot help irlurioy the par
ties that withhold this needed inform atom from tue
mercantile community. The trade to San Francisco,
AZ lie well known, is almoft enrey from t.is port
and New York, and we want to zee a perfect conf
dence exist between the shippers in both cities Let
the csrgoes be published in the papers in dtaI aad
then the shippers will know the gus stity Of each
article on The way, and will be enabled TO axe much
j1dicious ventures than a. PRESENT. Nothing is
gain ed in the end we believe, by cOlcs ament I'd
we are in hepss that the New-York merchlots will
take broad aud liberal vie Of this matter aud will
perceive that il as often operates against them SO it
in their favor. Let the merchants Of each city,
well as thOse in San Francisco kn0r rh0t is osng
hPped and in the end il will prove beneficial to al
concerned"
