Steam Communication.

Capt. Paul of New York visited our
city last week TO ascertain how much
stock would be subscribed for a steamer
to run thrice weekly touching at the
various landings between here and Bel
fast &c. 4 boat can be had costing
some $50, 900, of light draft. good ac-
commodations. good speed and well
appointed every way. if sufficient en-
couragement can be had. This is one
of the pressing needs of our city, and
our merchants and business men should
encourage the enterprise. We must not
wait for a railroad for railroads cost
heaps ofmoney, and years Of time be-
fore contamination. Ii is easy enough
to see what would eventually be for the
