OFFICE OF THE PANAMA RAIL-ROAD CoarAsr,}


OFFICE OF THE PANAMA RAILROAD COMPANY,
NEW YORK. July 20, 1857.
~ The Panama Railroad Company takes this method
ASNAN Of informing those interested in the Whaling bust
NEH& ness, Of the advantages oher-d by the Railroad
~ across the Isthlmus Of Panama, for the shipment OF
Oil from the Pacific to the United States, ard for sending out
fits and supplies from the United States to Panama
The Railroad has been in regular and successful operation Tor
more than two years, and its capacity for the transportation OF
every description of merchandise, including Oil, Provisions, &C.
has been fully tested. The attention Of several Captains of
whaleships has recently been turned to the subject of shipping
their oil from Panama to New York during the present season,
and the Panama RAILROAD Company has made arrangements
to afford every facility which may be required for the accom-
plshment Of this important object A Pier, $50 feet long, has
been built in the bay Of Panama, to the end of which Freight
Cars are run to receive cargoes from lighters or vessels lying
alongside, and deliver the same alongside of vessels at Aspin-
wall. Vessels of from 200 to 800 tons can lie at the Pier with
safety, grounding in the mud at low water.
The vessels to and from Aspinwal are fast-sailing Drigs, be
longing to the Railroad Company, and the Company is pre-
pared to receive oil at Panama and deliver it in New York,
under through Bills Of LadinS at the rate Of seven
cents per gallon, il received at the Pier, and eight cents per gal
lon if received in the harbor from ships tackles, charging for
the capacity of the casks, without allowing for vantage. For
whalebone, one and one-haf cents per pound. This charge
covers every expense from Panama to New York, in case
Of the Panama RAILROAD Company, insurance excepted. The
freights may be made payable on the Isthmus or in New York
at the option OF the shipper.
The vessels of the Company sail regularly semi-monthly, and
the average passages to and from Aspinwall are about twenty to
twenty-five days. The time occupied in crossing the Ishmus is
four hours. Oil, during its transit across the Isthmus, will be
may be assured that every care will be taken to prevent leakage.
Several cargoes have already been conveyed to New York with
out the slightest loss.
Oil or other goods consigned for transportation to the Super
intendent of the Panama Rail Road Company, or to w lillian
Nelson, Commercial Agent Of the Company at Panama. will
be received and forwarded with the greatest despatch.

Nh. EDITOR IL read with much interest the dis

American paper, in your last issue The remarks Of
the several speakers in that discussion express the

"Paper Money..Its Effects on the Com.
merce Of the Country,

By own Reporter.
merce Ofthe Country.'
Such was the title of the second Lecture
delivered by Ex-Gov. W. A. German, before
the St. Paul Mercantile College, on Saturday
Evening, from which we give few condensed
extracts:
The Lecturer commenced with the origin
of the word. Bank" 1t is of Italian origin.
In the infancy of European Commerce the
Jews in Italy were in the habit of meeting at
the principal cities, and taking their seats on
bench, ready to lend money, and the word
bank is derived from the Italian word 6anco,
bench. When one of them failed, his bench
was broken-hence the word bankrupt.
Gold and Silver being inconvenient to trans
port, bills of Exchange are used instead
Thus the deposite of coin remains untouched,
and instead of having to 60 to your creditor
in New York and carry him bulky amount
of coin, you send the draft and save the ex-
pense of travel, and loss of time. This facili-
tates commerce.
These bills of Exchange, said the Lecturer,
are the SEEMING origin of the use of Banks of
issue and circulation. Money is plenty in
the country when no more can be pro6tably
employed in active productive industry. La
borers arestoo abundant likewise when there
is not enough employment for them, and both
money and labor 60 where employment can
be had. When productive Industry is idle
for want of laborers, that kind of capital is too
scarce.
Paper money will not only increase the
price of production, but stimulate to excessive
importation, and the currency leaves " 10 pay

THE U. 8. SENATOR QUESTION.


UNITED STATES SENAroR.-.While the quesss
ton of the u s. Senatorship is up for discus
sion, it may not be inopportune to express our
own preference and what we believe to be the
preference of most of the Republicans of this
vicinity, and in doing so, we have no intention
of disparaging the claims of others who have
been mentioned in that connection. Hon. Da-
vid Cooper is our choice, believing him to be
a man eminently qualified to honor the posi-
ton, and reflect honor upon the State. The
names of Hon. D. s. Norton, Hon. NJ. S. Will
kinson, and others have been mentioned in
this connection. We are pleased to learn that
Gov. Ramsey is not candidate not that we
would not like to see him in tho Senate, but
we need bis ability in redeeming the State
from the embarrassment into which it has
been plunged by Democratic mismanage-
ment
