further, that the existing lines are entirely inadequate for the proper development of our commercial position, and that sufficient efforts have not been made to encourage that busiuess which should naturally seek Canadian channels.With the view of meeting this recognized public want, it is proposed to form a Company in England, under the Limited Liability Act, for the purpose of establishing a line of Screw Steamships, of large capacity, to run between the ports of Liverpool and Montreal.It is also intended to put on a fortnightly or monthly line between the ports of London and Montreal, as may be required by the extent of the trade between these ports.It is believed, in accordance with the manifest opinion of the merchants of this country, that the policy of the Government will hereafter offer much greater inducements to Steamship enterprise ; and, as the subsidy to the existing line will be reduced to about one-half in April next, this monopoly, which has hitherto prevented competition, will no longer interfere with the success of another line to Liverpool.Montreal is now the second port of export on the Atlantic seaboard.The trade returns show an increase of nearly one hundred per cent in eight years, and yet, since the establishment of the weekly line to Liverpool, there has been no incrza.se whatever in steamship tonnage to meet the wants of this large and annually increasing trade.In the year 1856, the total Imports and Exports of Montreal amounted to less than twenty millions of dollars.In 1862, the exports of Breadstuffs alone, by Sea, amounted to nearly Seventeen Millions of bushels, while the total Imports and Exports, by Sea, for the same year, amounted to nearly Thirty- nine Millions of Dollars, showing an increase of nearly one hundred per cent.Liverpool received a larger proportion of these Exports than any other Port, and it is from Liverpool that about four fifths of the Imports of Canada are shipped ; and, yet, while there are two unsubsidized Steamship Lines running to and from the Port of Glasgow, there is only one Line between Liverpool and Montreal.operation In the pronfuttrordr cMS'bürœryfisb; nr~ûiaj^db Ye&KFifbi/Vilâir;\tsê&H\\P tained at unnecessarily high rates, solely in consequence of an absence of wholesome competition.In order to show this, it Is necessary to refer to the complete monopoly hitherto enjoyed by the existing Company, to the detriment of the interests of the whole Province, but more directly to those of the Importers and Exporters of the country.While this Company were constantly obtaining full cargoes from Liverpool to Montreal, it was found cheaper to send Goods rom London to Glasgow, and thence per Steamer to this Port, than to send them Liverpool, or even direct from Liverpool itself to Montreal.And, yet, as may safely be nferred, from the fact of the owners increasing the number of their Yessels, these two Glasgow Lines continue to prosper, on comparatively low freights and no subsidies, on a far inferior route, both as regards Passengers and Freights, and by which no profits are to be derived by the carriage of mails.It may, further, be instanced, as a fact detrimental to the interests of the Province, that European Goods are brought into Canada by Steamship via New York at lower rates than those charged by the shorter and quicker St.Lawrence route.It is well-known that the profits of Steamships running to this Port, during the past few years, have been very large, and there can be no doubt, from the extensive patronage of which this enter-prize has already been assured, that, by careful and economical management, the earnings of this Company will also yield a very profitable return to the Shareholders.In forming this Company in England, where it is intended to seek the larger portion of the Capital required, it will be the object of the Provisional Board to secure the services, as Directors, of the leading men in Liverpool, London, and Manchester, connected with the Canadian trade ; but, in order to secare the best English interests and assistance, and, by inspiring confidence, to ensure the complete saccess of the Company, it is deemed requisite that a Subscription of Stock, say to the extent of £100,000 Sterling should be obtained among the Merchants of Canada, before bringing out the project in the English Market.It is not proposed to enter into undue competition with the existing Line, and the first-class passenger traffic which that Line is specially adapted to carry, will not be interfered with by this Company.It is proposed to build a fleet of Screw-Steamships, of about 2,000 to 2,500 Tons, of large capacity, and of moderate power.Such vessels can be built at a relatively much smaller cost than when high speed is required, can oe sailed much more economically, and, at the same time, offer equal advantages to shippers of Merchandise, and Steerage and Intermediate passengers, who, it is well known, from their greater number and their less expensive mode of transport, are much more profitable than First-Class Passengers.It is intended to commence a fortnightly service each way, to be increased to a weekly Line, calling at a Port in Ireland, as soon as the vessels can be got ready.Until such time as the ships are built, it is believed that there will be no difficulty in chartering suitable vessels, so as to enable the Company to go into operation in the Spring.As many of the supporters of this Company are largely engaged in the Import Trade of this Country, the Directors have every reason to anticipate a steady and very great success to this undertaking.It will be the policy of this Company, by a liberal system of remuneration, to secure the services of the most efficient Commanders and Officers.Suit of Livery Livery Oreat \u20acapes - ¦ -\t- -\t24.00 Coatj wiib -\t- $20 to 40 ON HAND.BIaACK J1L.AHKETS, iltASII FJMEZE.ï3\"Eyery other deacription of Garment equally Cheap.N.B.\u2014TERMS CASH.December 3.\t1m 288 TE8ÛE8S FOB 300 CORDS OF MAPLE FIIEIIOD.THE undersigned will receive from this DATE to the FIFTEENTH DAY of January next, inclusive, at his OFFICE, at St.Vincent de Paul, TENDERS for Three Huiidred Cords of Green Maple Firewood, (French Measure,) ot the best quality, and all split, said WOOD to measure three feet from point to scarp, and to be delivered in the YARD ef the REFORMATORY PRISON on or before the 1st day of July next.Parties tendering will require to name two responsible parties who are willing to become security for the due fulfilment of the Contract in the sum of $300 each.Refokmatory Prison, C.E.)
