We notice that Mr.. T. Greenfield in his
semi monthly circular of yesterday calls
the attention of our Western friends to
the advantage of shipping through this
port, as follows: The mild and
serves to keep the article in case, and dur
ing the season we have comparatively few
days when it can not be sampled and han
died without injury. To this, which alone will
be appreciated by dealers, must be added
the well established fact that the value of
European shipments is materially enhanced
by their taking this route, the course of fer
mentation through which they pass during
the voyage through the gulf and gulf stream
ter highly desirable when in the course of
final maRufactnre. This is SO well known
and appreciated by European dealers and
the directors who represent the various gov
ernments as to establish q decided prefe-
renee for tobacco from this pOrt and l
