We understand from very good authority that the
Occidental and Oriental Steamship Company OF
California have dispatched the wcll-knOwn White
Star steamer Oceanic from Liverpool to Hong Kong,
where she will take her place in the line to and from
San Francisco. The Gaelic and Belgc, sister ships,
nearly new, will follow her shortly, and together
form a regular monthly line across the Pacific.
These ships, though belonging to an entirely distinct
and independent corporation, will be run in CO.
operation with the vessels belonging to the Pacific
Mail Company making alternate trips with them.
The new line vessels are very large and are furnished
with great carrying capacity as well great speed
Ii is believed that the time heretofore occupied in
the passage between London and the Asiatic ports,
via the Pacific Railroad route, will be
shortened considerably, through schedule
of 40 days or lees being in contemplation
for passengers and mails. The Oceanic will
arrive out so as to leave China for San Francisco
early in June, and will be due in San Francisco by
about July with cargo OF new crop teas, silks,
&c. the other ships will follow at regular intervals.
Each ship is capable Of carrying 5000 TONS or suf-
cent to load up daily train of so cars for 10 or II
days. The through business of this line and the
Pacific Mail will all be concentrated on the Pacific
Railroad route. 1t was to develop the trade of East
ern Asia to much greater dimensions and to encour-
age the use of the overland line for this traffic the
new organization was started, and it is understood
the Central and Union Pacific Railroad Companies
are among the chief promoters of the enterprise. The
Company start their vessels under favorable
auspices, most Of the passengers between Europe
and China would prefer route equally speedy,
which avoided the perils of the Red Sea and Indian
Ocean.
The produce exports for the week ending to-day
we're $4,964, 1877, against $5,736.ss7 for the cor
responding week in 1874, and $7,51S.679 in 1873.
The total exports since Jan. /, this year, were
$s1 ,344, against $96,365,S2S for the cor
responding period in 1874, and $94641 1925 in 1873.

ket was dull and firm, with asking and selling
rates unchanged from yesterday. This days steamer
took out $4,000 specie, of which 1861 900 was
gold coin. The engagements for tOmorrow's steamer
amount to million, and for Thursday half million
These heavy engagements told on the gold premium
and the price, on the strength of them, advanced
from 1858 to 1853 on a small business. On gold
loans the rates were fiat and l per cent for carry

This and large increase in the assets has been
accomplished without in any way increasing the OBJ
legations of the Union Pacific, which company, am
happy to say, is without dollar OF floating debt
and has already earned it's first dividend.
Such mastery management commends itself 10 the
bond and stockholders of the Company, and to it,
well az to the intrinsic value of the property is due
the steadily growing faith in the securities of the
Company. SToCkHOLDER
