The Ocean Carrying Trade.

The steam carrying trade on the Atlantic
has increased within the past few years, with
1apidity which the most sanguine friends of
steamship enterprise have never dared to
predict. In the year 1859 the tonnage of for.
eign-going steamers entered inward at Liver
pool was 188, MS tons, while In 1868 it was
595, ,999 which, In the year ending June, 1858
had Increased to 756, 40 tons. Ii about ten
years the foreign steam &rade of that port
has more than quadrupled There are ut pre-
sent eight distinct lines Of Atlantic steam
ships, si1 Of which have contracts for carry
ing the mails. They owu In the aggregate
6ffy-fTe vessels, and new vessels Of m i'm
proved character, and Of greater power and
capacity, are being constantly added to the
List. We have recently had the prospectus of
new line to be established BY the National
Steam Navigation Company" with capital
Of two millions sterling, having for Its object
to run fleet OF screw steamers from Liver
pool and London to New York; Of large size
md great capacity. Three steamers Of that
class have already been secured, and con-
tracts have been entered into for the building
Of others Of about 8, 500 tons each. The i'm
petus given to the trade has induced the
Cunard and Dale or Tor 1nman) lines to run
extra steamers at stated times, and the Ini-
tiatory steps have already been taken for the
establishment Of new lines. It Is noteWor-
thy fact that the screw ships are fast SUPER
seding the more expensive and cumbrous
slde-Whee1 steamers. The Cunard Company,
it is said, freely admit that their screw ship,
tho China, which is Of such eize and power as
to admit Of fair comparison with drst-elass
sfde~Wheel steamers, Is the least expensive
and most useful vessel Of their line.
