Cirtcaao, Dec. 80.—Amongst the editorfals in your paper of vesterday hu write an article called “ A New Departure {n Ocean Freights,” and wonld lead 'the publie to think that Mr. Vanderbilt had done a great, new thing for the country at large, and that he would sweep it of {ta fresghits far and near, ete. For some reason Fou overlook such matters when Cal. Beott {n- Augurates them. Finding recently that the American and Antwerp iines, salling weekly from Philadelphia (Antwerp line has alternate sallings from New York and Philadeliphla), did not provide sufticlent tonnage, ho dispatehed an agent to Furope wha secpred the services of another weekly line lrom {’Mlndclnhlm (four or five of which steamers have been loaded a¢ Philadelphla for Liverpool and returned,) This agent, who sectired the accond line of steamers, has also sccured the serv- fees of sl another line to start from Philadelphta March 1, which will gise to Col. Scott's road four large fron steamers ner week for Europe, in addition to the vessels which lond nt elcvators dailv at Balthinore for Europy, The steam cared for the service are all first-class iron steamers, and of an aver- age capacity of more thau 000 tons each. Phltadeiphia bus two large modern elevators at which the steamers receive and discharge thelr frelght, Two years ago Col. Scott's road built an elevator at “Baltimore of 500,000 bush- cls capavity. This was soon foum! to be too small Tor tho business, and they ars now rapilly bullding a_second elevator of double the ca- pavity of the firsc une. This 2ives to Col. Scott's roads four great elevators, with four lines of steamers (exefusive of the sail vessels which are rupning in connection with the elevator at Bal- tifltore), and four sailfngs per week. Now Mr. Vanderbiit fs simply following sult to try and save o propee share of tie great truflle for Eu- rope from the West—it he can, These vessels, entirely in the hands and under the control of the Pennaylvania Raflroad, will scarcely allow the New York Central to command the entire transportatiun (rom the West jntended for ex- vort. 1 can hardly think that you Intended to wrtf,: an article 80 ‘entirely one-skded and s entirely lu the futervat of "tho one—the New York Central—road, for, every dar in the year, Col.
