The NICARAGUA LINE. The San Fran
cisco Chronicle of August 18th, contains the
following;
We are credibly informed that another
line of steamships will be in operation be-
tween this city and New York and New Or
leans by the 9th of September, or the Goth
at the farthest. 1t will be on the same route
travelled by the ships of the Nicaragua Com
pany We are told that arrangements have
been completed with the Central American
States, by which uninterrupted travel across
the country of Nicaragua has been secured,
and all that is now necessary to be accom-
plishcd before the ships can be put en- the
route, is the supply of the different stations
with coal, which it is thought will be done
by the 9th proximo. This will be good news
to those who desire to pay flying visit to
their friends in the East, or wish to bring
their families to this country, as most un-
doubtedIy, as soon as the new line gets into
operation, the rates of passenger fares will
be ially reduced.

EASTERN PUBLISHERS AND CALIFORNIA
NEwsPAPERs.-The old customs of the west
ern country townspeople in " swapping "
and bartering for wares, and their habits of
trading cordwood, turnips, beeswax, and
other products, for "store clothes" and West
India goods, seems to have been adopted to
n certain extent by the eastern publishers
toward the California newspapers. We yes.
terday received per mail, n circular from
Messrs Childs s. Peterson, of Philadelphia,
which contains an advertisement nearly
equal in length with our columns, and n
proposition to US to publish it to the
amount Of .Gre dollars, and to pay us Tor the
same with picture of DR.. Kane, the Arctic
explorer, and copy of his biography when
that work is published. Now we certainly
wou like TO possess n good likeness and II
memoir of the lamented explorer, but we
certain y can't afford to publish the adver-
tisement for Messrs Childs Il Peterson at
any such losing rates, and they as intelli-
gent publishers ought to know it. We are
constrained to allude to this matter in con-
sequence of the frequency of such preposter
Gus ffers.
