death has suppressed, at this time, that

sional brethren. and renders appropriate
now only the expression of their deep sor-

street. setting forth the scope of the Misss-
sippi Valley and Brazil Steamship Com
pany. 1t shows the advantages of opening
a reciprocal trade with Brazil, by establish
ing line of steamships between New Or
leans and Rio Janeiro, touching at inter-
mediate ports. A vast commercial trade
can be opened between these ports and the
States of the Mississippi valley. 1t is stated
as a fact that produce from Brazil goes
costs forty-eight cents per hundred more
than if it went by way of New Orleans,
which is a thousand miles nearer.
Hon. Joseph NJ. Kinds, United States con-
sui at Rio Janeiro says: II am thoroughly
convinced the line could be made one of the
best paying steamship investments in the
world"
The enterprise is one deserving of the
careful attention of our merchants. The
steamships contemplated to be built for
this line have already been modelled, and
will be expressly adapted for the tropical
climate of the Brazil trade. They will carry
$500 tons freight, on draft of sixteen feet,
enabling them to cross the bars OF the Mis-
sisslppi passes at any stage of water, and
will make the passage, including all stop
pages, in twenty-five dayso They will have
a new method of ventilation, completely
preventing any damage to cargo from
damp, mildew, or souring. The cabins are
to be all on the upper d9cks, and expressly
fitted and arranged for fresh air and
comfort.
By the charter of the company, the cap
ital stock is fixed at 100000 and it pro-
vides for the opening of subscription books
in all the principal citie9 of the valley
States. The company is to commence busi-
ness as soon as $500, 900 is subscribed, and
it is contemplated to put two chartered
steamers on the line by December nex@o to
run until the company steamers can be
built@
