OUR STEAM MARINE.

Smiling of the Guiding star-One More Effort
to Revive American Shipping-Thc Guiding
Stnr's Mission.
Perhaps the war left behind 1t no more serious
Injury to any branch Of commerce than it did to the
shipping business. Before the rebellion the United
States did all its own carrying trade between here
and Europe, and was not dependent. as now, upon
the ships Of foreign nations for the commerce OF the
country with European nations. BY degrees the
trade dwindled away until 1t has been wiped out
altogether, and shipping business Is now thing Of
the past. The first great blow which our shipping
interests sustained was before the war; when Collins
line OF steamships burst up. From that time to
the present no successful effort has been made to
revive branch OF commerce which the whole coun-
try feels soreiy should be fOurishine. 1t would not
seem likely from the present aspect of AFFAIRS, that
there Is much chance at an early day Of our ships
being upon the sea in large numbers Two causes,
It is said win enectually prevent tnis:-First, we
cannot possibly compete with Great Britain in
building ships; secondly, when we have them built
we cannot compete with her In sailing them as
cheaply The import duty on iron and shirbuilding
materials IL heavy that our shIpbuilders cannot
build ship for double the money 1t costs
an English shipbuilder. And, again, owing
to similar cause, ship built in an American dock
yard will consume from eighty to ninety tons OF coal
cess OF using steam twice over, can economic to
consumption OF coal not exceeding from forty 10 fifty
tons day: Hence II lollows that our shpyards are
s neglected almost entirely in this country. In proof
Of all this 1t 10 only necessary to glance back at the
