TRADE WITH fHE NoRrHwRsT.

"a In the river column Of yesterdays paper we
chroniced the arrival at this port Of four basges
from St. Louis, loaded with twenty five thousand
sacks of grain, which were towed from that city
to this by the steamer " New Orleans" Large as
this city is, and great as is the consumption Of
grain, the arrival of go large quantity has had Q
sensible effect on the market, and prices have CON
siderably receded. The city of New Orleans has
saved by this shipment very respectable sunl OF
money, consequent upon decline in the price Of
an article Of general use and prime necessity. u
We cannot but hope that this enterprise will
lead to others Of the same and similar kinds and
that the commercial alliance between the West
and South may grow stronger and more intimate.
New Orleans ought to be the importer Of foreign
goods for the whole mississippi valley, and, on
the other hand, she ought to not only be heavy
consumer herself of the agricultural productions
Of that valley, but the medium through which
they seek the markets Of the outside world. To
bring about such result one Of the most impor-
tant agencies is cheap transportation. In former
times, before the days Of steam, fatboat trans
portation was costly only On account Of the time
consumed in making a trip. But now, under
barge and towagesystem, by which cheapness Of
transportation is combined with rapidity Of move
ment, there ought to be many such enterprises as
that to which we are abiding, and full return
freights ought to encourage the people of the
Northwest to extend their commercial intercourse
with the lower Mississippi valley. "A e
But, independent of the commercial interests in
volved, there is a growing tendency to political
combination between the West and South, as
| means Of protection against the Unsuitable de-
mands Of Eastern capitalists, merchants, shippers
and manufacturers. The West, no less than the
South, is plundered by high tariffs and monopolies
of every description, and the principle Of self
| protection requires thai the two should unite
against their common political enemy That an
increase Of the commercial ties between the two
would lead to closer political afiliation is evi-
dent enough. And that good would result in both
respects is equally plain. With "a great natural
highway like the Mississippi to say nothing Of its
tributaries, to serve as the path Of commerce be.
tween the West and South, and with New Orleans
sitting at the gate which opens into the ocean, the
great highway of nations, there is nothing which
should prevent the closest reciprocal, trade rela
tons, in the interest of both sections, and thus
1 sever those Eastern connections which are com
| mon burden to BOTH . 0. ni
