the establishment of line of steamers between Europe
and the Chesapeake Bay, has been received, and sim

your counsels.
This is step in the right direction. 1t is an import
ant movement and promises to be practical In its results
We have been inactive long enough We have spoken
and written on this subject until begin to fear may
be considered people of words but not of deeds Our
conventions have met have debated have resolved and
have adjourned to meet again. But what has been the
result Trade continues within its accustomed channels
The producer seeks the markets where his products
where the best bargains be obtained and each resorts
to those reach the places of exchange which
offer the greatest advantages. No conventions

people abrogate this law of trade
New il Mr. Mann shall establish the proposed line OF
steamers from the Chesapeake Bay to Europe, and thus
offer the facilities to travellers and to
merce as are offered elsewhere he will entite himself to
the patronage and to the gratitude of the southern
pie and should be slow to believe that he wouid not
receive the good will and favor of EVERY patriot in every
portion Of the country
There is at this moment tide of prosperity flowing
