A NEW OBJEcT.-The Advertiser understands
that new project is on foot among our mer-
chants that if carried out will prove of vast i'm
portance. If the reader will take the map of
Portland he will see that the line of the wharves
and OF Commercial street, from Railroad wharf
to the Great Eastern wharves, is arched like an
angry cats back. 1t is well known that we
have not half enough wharf facilities with our
growing busine and trade-the publ cation Of
the statistic; of which, abolished since the fire
would astonish the reader, and VIII ch the
Board OF Trade propose to resume-and the
new proposition is to cut off the ends of the
projecting wharves and build out all the others,
SO that all shall be flush with the Harbor Com
missioner's line. 1t is then proposed to build a
new street parallel with the new wharf line,
south of Commercial street, which w.uld then
be used for the railroads, while Commercial
street would be retained for business purposes,
or vice versa. The project is a most import ant
one
