The Effect.

New York, March Is. The two weekly
lines Of steamers between this port and New
Orleans, run by Mallory & Go. and f. Baker,
have discontinued their trips, leaving only one
regular line 10 the trade. The agent of that
lice when questioned as to the cause of the
withdrawal Of the other two, said it had been
brought about by the great depression of trade,
politics 10 Louisiana aud the fact that most of
the cotton which formerly fouud its way to New
York in transit for Liverpool is now shipped
directly 10 steamers to Europe from New Or
leans New York is rot as great receiving
port for cotton it used to be. As things
stand at present there is not work for more
than one steamship line. Sailing ships have
cut up the trade. Freights are low and should
matters not take more favorable turn, steam
ships will not succeed in making more tina o
running expenses. The steamship trade to
Savannah has of late decreased to half its for
mer extent.
