The Steamers of this Line are all new, and their
remarkable speed Is due to their construction, the
most approved modern models of the fast Hudson
river steamers having been adopted.
The superiority of their models gives them n great
advantage over the boats of the old STYLE of naval
construction and the newness of their hoilers and
safety.
It is hardly necessary to inform our patrons that
with their powerful machinery and fine water-lines
ey dq not REQUIRE the slightest approach racing
TO enable them to attain much better rate of speed
than any boats in these waters.
The New LINE is composed of the following elc-
Saloons and Single and Family State-R Rooms:
GEORGE LEARY, Captain Brakeman.
JAMES 7. BRADY, Captain Lands.
