Loss OF a Hundred Millions.

TIE loss of slO0, ,OOO, 600 paid on freight
to foreign vessels each year, is The first
item OF long list OF losses pointed gu. by
special committee of the Chamber OF
Commerce yesterday as the result of the
decadence OF American shipping A long
list OF recommendations for the restora-
ton OF our flag to its former place on the
high seas was also presented, and the
Chamber Of Commerce is to hold sPec,a
meeting January 10 to give them the CON
sideration their importance deserves.
Undoubtedly there are many burdens in
posed upon American shipping which the
ships OF no other countries bear, and their
removal is ademand of common prudence.
There are sharp differences Of opinion as
the question whether subsidies should be
granted TO steamship conparies;, but
there ought TO be no difference cf opinion
as to the removal Of enormous port charges
and needless condition. which hamper our
shipping Tie Chamber of Commerce Is
performing an excellent serrica in pointing
out some OF the reforms which need most
to be made Bat We think its members
should not be content riisuch an achieve
ment Ii IS not probable that tire restn-
ration of American shipping woald be
rapid were every one Of the recommenda-
tons presented yesterday adopted. The
Chamber of Commerce should formally
encourage individual enterprise and mge-
nuity in the construction of steamships Of
a better pattern than any now atiott-
1t is upon such schemes as those recently
put forth Tor the establishment of fast
American steamships between New York
and London that the country must rely
for the restoration Of our Shipping. Not
only must the thiugs wh;ch now hamper
our shipping be removed, bat American
ingenuity must also devise improvements
