We copy the following from the St. Louis

If any Of our readers doubted the truth of
the statement made to US by our Liverpool
correspondent the other day, that the great
Allan Line Of steamers-heretOfore plying
between Montreal and Liverpool via the
st. Lawrence river, are to be put into the
ST. Louis and New Orleans grain trade
here is further evidence Of the fact in the
shape of an advertisement clipped from the
Liverpool Shipping and Commercial! Express
of a late date:

steamship Lines.


Baltimore has demonstrated the posi-
bility Of maintaining an ocean steamship
line from some other city than New York.
1t has been done, too, without subsidy.
And now comes Philadelphia with four
grand steamships, viz: The Pennsylvania,
the Ohio, the Indiana, and the Illinois
The first named is nearly compiled, and viii
make her first trip IN January next The
Ohio was launched last week, and the other
two are in the ship yards, rapidly approach
ing completion. These are iron steamships,
and are American built throughout. Again
there is no subsidy. The Baltimore vessels
were built abroad. This enterprise is
backed by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad,
and the Philadelphia enterprise is. backed
by the Pennsylvania Central railroad. The
former demonstrated that a line between
that city and Europe would pay. Phila-
deIphia has followed the example, and its
line will pay also Therefore both will be
permanent, and thus the New York
monopoly is etfectualIy broken.
The West is interested in this business;
Baltimore is much nearer to the great West
than either Philadelphia or New York, and
Philadelphia is nearer than New York. 1t
is, therefore, much cheaper to ship produce
to Europe, or to receive European manu-
features by way of Baltimore or Phijadel-
pha than New York. This is great adj
vantage. The saving altogether amounts
to Twenty-Five per cent of the total cost Of
TRANSPORTATION. Besides, under our i'm
proved revenue laws sthe Cincinnati mer-
chant can import direct from Europe Upon
as good terms as the New \ OTk merchant,
and the Cincinnati merchant can also ship
produce to Europe much cheaper than 1t
could be forwarded through New York. In
Baltimore goods are delivered from the
ship to the cars, and vice versa. The same
arrangement will, no doubt. be made in
Philadelphia. Estimate the cost of transit
through New York city and the custom
house expenses, and the saving in tune and
money can readily be calculated There
fore, we say the West is interested in this
business, and 1t affords us pleasure to note
the success of the Baltimore and Philadtl-
Phia enterprises.
In regard to the latter it IS to be par
ticularly noted that line Of first class iron
steamships can be built in America without
a government subsidy. OfcOuTse the great
advance in labor and material in England
makes this easier of accomplishment than a
wear ago; but it has been accomplished, and
we shall have this to help us when we come
to fight the combinations that will make a
descentupon Congress this winter demand
ing subsidies in order to have a steamship
line sailing under the American flag. Phil
adelpha will have four mighty steamers
made of iron, sailing under tile American
flag. and no subsidy is asked.
Now let fellows who propose to rob the
treasury upon the pFeteXt Of restoring the
fIag TO the ocean stand aside. Thank you,
Philadelphia.

The Ontes Comic 0nern rrnnne.

The Memphis appeal notices the per-
formances OF the company in Plauchb g
operate extravaganza of FOrtunio." The
burlesque is full of the most striking and
extraordinary situations, while the dia-
logue is comical and ludicrous in the ex-
IRENE. 1t is, however, delightfully."- en-.
Ilyened throughout with the rarest and
most beautiful gems from the operas Of
" MARTHA "IrOvatOre,' " Fra DiavOla,"
La Barbiere," intermingled with some Of
the richest D1OTcealtT, from the pen of the
ever-enjoyable Gfenbacb. These have
been arranged with rare excellence by the
musical director, Mr.. Frank Howson, and
are exquisitely rendered by Mrs. Oates,
Miss Kate Frazer, MIR. w. III. Crane, Mr..
Charles Drew, Mr.. John HoWson and Mr..
Pratt. Since her last visit to this city Mrs.
Oates has greatly improved in several re-
spects. She has acquired superior kn0wl-
edge Of stage business, and her voice, always
OF the very finest quality, seems to be more
completely under control, In the upper
register there seems to be a degree Of
clearness, while her lower notes are even
more round and full than formally. In
chic she has all of those rattling qualities
that enable her to carry her audience by
storm, and she sings with a grace spirit
and abandon that is really charming, and
which never fails to elicit the very heartiest
of applause. In the concerted pieces from
the several operas she shone pre-eminent,
while her exquisite rendering of a comic
medley secured her the compliment OF a
triple encore. In costuming Mrs. Oates
always displays the finest taste, and as
MyrtinG last night all her dresses were
most appropriate. Mr.. w. II: Crane
comedian well and most favorablE
known to the genuine lovers of
the comic drama in Memphis, appeared as
King AifoTite, and by his rollicking, gro
tesque acting and ludicrous style of sing
ing sundry extravagantly composed med
levs, was greeted with the most uprOariOus
laughter and shouts Of applause. NJ.
Charles Fl. Drew, the pleasant and ever re
liable tenor, who has ever received warm
welcome from the music loving citizens OF
Memphis, enacted the character Of Prince
Elfo with all the care and taste for which
he is so remarkable. He was in Very'tine
voice last evening, and highly distinguished
himself in the concerted music. Miss
Kate Frazer. who possesses a mezzo-
soprano voice of superior quality,
appeared as NdrESma1o, and executed a
little solo in a manner that must have
satisfied the talented lady that she had
rendered herself quite favorite with her
audience. Mr.. John HowsOn was the
Princess Fi11dicta of the burlesque He
sung well, and showed that his histrionic
powers are fully above the average. III g
other characters were all suitably rendered,
and the piece was placed on the stage with
due regard to scenic effect. Some ina
chine dOggerel" in the shape of local occur
rences was introduced into a comic song,
sung alternately by Mrs, Oates, Mr.. Crane,
Mr.. Drew and Mr.. HOWson, and created
much amusement.
The st. Charles Theatre will be gay and
Joyous next Sunday evening with all this
musical talent.

Prairie Mer Rouge, Mr.. James b. Williams
shot and killed one of the largest bear that
has been seen in our section Of the country
for years. 1t was very fat and weighed
four hundred pounds. Owing to the scar

our parish is sport that has long since
gone out Of fashion, but We learn that they
