The last issue of the Nautical Gazette, speak
ing of the amended steamboat law, says:
''Congress will be called upon this session to
take some action upon the amended steamboat
law, as demanded by the National Board OF
Steam Navigation. For nearly four years the
steamboat interest has labored almost in vain,
for law which, while it will fairly protect the
travelling public, will not lay upon the steam
| vessel owners onerous and uni ust burdens. For
years this interest has been legislated against,
and, in most cases. In the interest OF patent
right cormorants, who have bled the steamboat
men and lined their pockets very literally. This,
to some extent, has been checked: but there yet
remain traces of this nefarious business which
must be blotted out. The law, as 1t stands to-
day. is a mass of incongruities and is, withal, 8
very unjust and burdensOme one on an interest
already heavily taxed and depressed. Congress
men, upon the whole, are becoming more fami-
liar with the subject, and we hope. In the future,
will see more clearly the business OF the claims
made by the steam vessel interest"
