BALTIMORE AND PORTLAND STEAMERS.
Until recent visit to the end of Central wharf.
to witness the effects of the late collision between
two OF the steamers running between this city and
Portland, we were not aware of the immense amount
OF business done by the boats of the Portland line
and those of the Merchants and Miners Transpor-
| tatlon Company, which run between Boston and
| Baltimore. The latter Co. have two first class
steamships, of 100 tons each, commanded by those
experienced pilot Captains Howes and Hallett which
| leave Baltimore and Boston every Saturday after
noon. a short time since, goods destined for the
far West were subject to the numerous changes and
delays incident to railway transportation, where
dozen different roads have to be used. These ships
with their connection with the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, can dispatch freights direct to all the
| Western States.
On Central wharf we saw bales and boxes of
| goods gong on board, marked for nearly every
city in the Central and Western States from Mary
land to Kansas. The steamers are also doing a
| large business in the way of passengers as the
route is of the most beautiful ocean trims that
| can be enjoyed in the summer season. The officers
are very popular Judging from the solid evidences
! which we saw in the wheel-house of the William
Jenkins, in the form of testimonials presented to
| Captain Hallett by his passengers after late trip
Of foka
wharf daily by the Portland boats and the weekly
steamships to Baltimore, can be taken evidence
! OF business, it would seem that season of pros
| perity was about dawning on us. We hope the
success of these lines will induce other companies
| to establish steam communication between Boston
and Southern ports.-Boston Transcript
