ST.. LOUIS TO LIVERPOOL VIA
CHARLESTON.

On Tuesday last MIR. j. Adger
Smyth, the Commissioner of the
Charleston Chamber of Commerce, ap-
peared before the st. Louis Board of
Trade on behalf of the project for es-
tablishing a line of ocean steamers be-
tween Charleston and Liverpool. His
presentation of the advantages that
St. Louis would derive from this i'm
~portation route, was cogent and ex-
haustive. At present st. Louis imports
its European and tropical mer-
chandise by way of New
York, Philadelphia and Baltimore,
paying Of course much more of costly
railroad mileage than any of its rivals,
such as Chicago, Cincinnati Of Louis
Vile. Importation by way of Charles
ton would give it a seaport as near or
nearer than either of these cities
possess. The practical difficulty in es-
tablishing a line of steamers heretofore
between Charleston and Liverpool, has
been that while the vessels always en-
joyed ample outward freights of cotton,
rice, naval stores, ETC., they
could obtain very little return freights
for the inward cities-the great
West and Southwest still continuing
their exclusive patronage of the North
ern railroads to Northern ports, which
was first adopted as a necessity of the
late war. 1t will be seer that if st.
Louis, Memphis and Nashville patron
ize the nearer port of Charleston for
their foreign goods, the proposed line
of steamers will have freight both ways,
enabling them to offer as cheap rates
across the ocean as the New York lines.
The icebergs and fogs of the Northern
ocean route make it much lore dan
gerous than the Southern route, and so
circuitous as to be almost the
same distance practically. The st.
Louis Board OF Trade endorsed the
project very cordially, as did also the
Union Merchants Exchange of that
city. We saw yesterday a private let
ter from Mr.. Smyth to n of our lead
ing merchants, in which he speaks with
much qualification of the manner in
which this important enterprise has
been received. Its Inauguration would
be Of immense benefit to u Southern
lines of railroads, which at present
run trains to the cotton States
laden with corn, bacon, mules
etc, only to return empty. Full
traffic both ways would enable them &c
lower present rates materially. AT the
same time, it would relieve the over.
crowded Northern roads to some extent
and the competition would be likely t.
compel a reduction Of their tariffs also
Such projects as the one under consid-
Grafton viii go farther toward securing
an equitable adjustment of the trans
portation question, than all the tinker
ing of Congress fora generation.

THE NelC York Tribune makes this
point: "When the Simmons trouble
began, it was reported that Judge Rus
sell gave up the Boston Collectorship
with the understanding that he should
have a South American mission. He
resigned in the language of the pol
iticians, and Simmons was confirmed.
Soon after, Mr.. VIM. A. Pile, Minister
TO Venezuela, also resigned Yester-
day the President sent to the Senate
the name of ex-Collector Russell as
Minister to Venezuela. This seems to
be a fair trade all around; but what is
to become of Pile?"
