Resolved, That we will severally and jointly use every exertion and influence. both directly and indi- sooty, in effecting and sustaining whatever plan of de- fence or measure of protection may be agreed upon by the citizens of Lavaca, and adopted, as the most likely, Fuccessfully to oppose the evils of a monopoly, disre- of every consideration but its own immediate terest. Resolved, That in order the better to effect our ob- Jeet, ‘8 committee of thirteen be appointed by the Chair, whose duty it ehall be to collect aud present. in the shape of a report, to an adjourned meeting of the citizens, to be on Saturday evening next, at sevon o'clock, P.

Hensury, Secretary. a REPORT. ‘The undersigned committee, acting under a re- | solution adopted at a meeting of the citizens held on the 21st inst., have given to the subject submit- | ted to ther consideration all the attention and in- | vestigation allowed by the shortness of the time, and ask leave to present the following report, with the resolutions attached, and recommend their adoption. _ ii F The committee present the following positions, oe they think susceptible of being fairly esta- ed t— First. That the amount of fresh and passage money coming to Lavaca Bay is fully sufficient to sustain, with profit, a line of boats between New Orleans and Lavaca Bay direct. y Second. the merchants and citizens of the town of Lavaca, for themselves and their corres- ae in the interior, say in Victoria, Gronzales, guin, San Antonia, Castroville, Fredericksburg, Austin, Bastrop, Goliad, Halletsville and Te: and neighboring settlements, pay nine-teaths of the freights pee Lavaca Bay, exclusive of the amount paid by the Quartermaster’s department of the U.S. army. Third. That a very large majority of the persons arriving and departing by the present line of steamers, leave by way of Lavaca, and arriving, seek that as a landing —. if not prevented from reaching it by obstacles purposely throwa in the | way, by the proprietors or agents of the present hne of steamers. Fourth. That the amount of trade to and through Lavaca, us well as the amount of travel, is rapidly increasing from causes easily understood, fa- amiliar to all the extension and enlargement of .ettlements in north western and western Texas, i direction ef travel and e: ation to New lexico and California, by way of the sources of the Colorado, to Paso del Norte, and by the opera- tions of the military department of the govern- ment upon the northern and western line of our } State. Fitth. That for all purposes of the coasting trade by songung sateen, the depth of water up Lava- ca ay, to town cf Lavaca, 18 tully sufficient. Ju Aidence of the first position, the committee ‘have obtained from each of the torwarding mer- chants, the emount of freights paid by them re- epectively, since the Ist of May last, a period of about six and a half months, which sums up in the aggregate $24,415; it to this sum be added for pas- Baye money, an average of tea passengers each tip, We have for the space above named $3,000 ; to which sums may safely be added fifteen per cent for persons paying their own freights, em- grants and deck passengers, producing the turther amount of ora sum total for the six and a hait mouths of $33,825; and deducting tor New York Sdgne, say $5,825, we have ia round num- bers €20,000, or about $60,000, contributed by La- me alone, to the anaual support of a line of pats. r Having no reliable data, the committee can make no estimate of the amount of freights con- tributed by Saluria, Matagorda and Indianola, and by the government for the transportation of army wipplies end munitions of war; that the sum is considerable, however, there can be no doubt. To the ebove sources of support for a boat or boate, adapted to the nature of our trade, may be also added the exporty of Western Texas, which, though small now, are rapidly increasing. The cotton crop of the present year will be largely over 2,000 bales. In 1847, the quaatity shipped was avout 600 bales, and in 18ts, 1,200; @ oe other articles shipped ia L648, may be mentione 40,000 bushels ot pecaus from Lavaca alone. From all the shippiug points in the Bay, the quan- tity could not have been short of 50,000 busnels, the freignt on which was equal to $12,000. The committee bavieg no information before them as to the cost of sailing the average clas of seagomg steamers, can arrive at no o¢ eclosion as to the amount of net revenue which would be derived from the various sources referred to, but that a line of boats, consiructed with an eye to the particular nature of the trade, would pay the owners handsomely, they think is clearly es tablished. “ ts ‘ In proof of the second position, itis sufficient to fiate a feet which cannot be disputed. It is this— that ith the exception of the goods for some of the Victoria merchants, and perhaps the same nomber of small dealers in New Brauofels, every barre! of freight for Goliad, San Antonio, Goa- zales, Seguin, Lockaart, Liallettevile, and Texana, as well as for some two or three houses in Austin arriving by steamers, of ocherwise, 1a Lavaca Bay, | is landed at the town of Lavaca, and forwarded thence to is destination; taking the number o eons, Who, ae merche do their baguness at | + waca, and atall other pots oa the bay below, | inclading ladianola, as 4 rule for estimating the | amount of business done by the several places named, aud the p ition will be fally as 6045 am favor of Lavaca t Lavaca contributes, thus, nearly MlOcns of the private support givea to the Present tine of sterner ja the eptaion of the committee, fully and faul Own. As rr, the accval aod departure of pa’ gers, it is @ mater of pudiic notonety that the tail ig brought im toar horse etages regularly, onee a week, to Lavaca, and that one of more extra stages are held in readiness to lake possen- gre tv San Antonio, and other places ia the in- terior Whilst to no other pount on the bay below, either to Indianola, La Salle, or Saluriia, is there & feguler communication tor the accommodation of Gave Liers, ¥ kind; and persons payiag their srege in N w York, Orleans, ot Gaivestea for Savers, when driven from the boats, at the na- chorage below, or landed at Indiaola against their will, and in violation of thetr rights, are il compelied to come to Jthoagn email open boats, exposed to every annoyance cold, wet, and hese facta are av well known, that the committee ¢: it wnaecessiry to dwell longer Upon Lis port.

Tampieo and Vera Cruz, and to the bet the recollection then here, - the boats named above seldom or never grounded, al- though at the time, there was go competent or re- sponsible branch pilot for the bay. Again, the Samuel W. jams, employed asalighter in the bay, mad ily trips to ‘the larger draft vessels lying below Ia an Point Bar, bringing up heavy cargoes, and without even the shghest difficulty from want of water, notwith- standing the prevalence during the winter of ’46 and ’47, of strong and conti northers, and consequently very low tudes. fact will be dis- tinctly recollected by all persong observant of such things, and who were employe ope § the period referred to on the northern of the Gulf. This same S. M.

Morgan & Harris. The Yacht was first put in the trade, and came up our wharves without difficult much as she co get, beth in and upon her, and not grounding on Gallinipper Bag, the only ob- acle inthe way of comig up ta Lavaca, more not unfrequently bringing up as han two or three times, em her lar con- tinuance in the trade, a period, we believe, of about eight months; and then, no&from want of sufficient depth of water, but of a pilot acquainted with the channel. The Yacht is @ sea-going steamer, and by judges, considered a safe, sub- stantial vessel; but being built more for speed than capacity of burthen, she did not, a Messrs. Harris & Morgan, suit the tr people of Lavaca were deprived of and advantages of the regular arrival ture of an ocean steamer at their wharv The committee deem that the facts we set forth are sufficient to convince even most sceptical, that sea-going steamers can arrive and depart from Lavaca with regularity and ty, and of sufficient capacity, for all the ends a safety, cemiort, and trade; but they think proper to go still further. In relation tothe depth of water on the several bars in the bay below, they present the following certificates:— On poarp THE BRIG Mataconna, Lavaca, January 19, 1849. At the request of Mr. KR. M.

NICHOLS, Branch Pilots, Pass Cavallo Bar. , Thus it is established, by the best possible autho- tity, that seven feet nine inches water, at average tides, can be had over ail obstructions in the chan- gel, up to the town of Lavaca. Upon this point, it would be useless to dweil longer, and your com- mittee will close this part of the subject, by stating that the following vessels, since the 25th of Sep- tember, have arrived from New York and dis- charged cargoes alongside the wharves, most of thore of the largest class, with fall cargoes, not one of which touched, either aoving or departing, any obstruction above Indian Point Bar. he vessels reterred to are :— Sebr. Hazard, 194 tons burthea, 2,000 bbis., and carries 400 bales cotton. cotton. ‘tland, 160 tons, 2,000 bbis , and carries 450 bal-» cotton. Brig Matagorda, 106 tons, 1200 bbls, and carries 300 8 cotton. Socbr. Ii L. Seranton, about 100 toms, 1,600 bbis , and carries 800 bales cotton, These vessels came up, drawing from seven feet to seven feet eight inehes; and, as before observed, meeting with no difficulty or delay. It is a fact now beginning to be generally under- stood and edmitted, that steamers, to be sale and ood wee-boats, do not require the same depth or old of the water, as sail vessels, being divested of “top hamper,” and having the propelling power near to the centre of gravity. ‘The succeestal navigation of the Northern lakes, by steamers ot the largest class but of light draft, say #ix to seven feet, has fully demonstrated the correctness of this theory. p The other branch of the subject to which tha attention of the committee has beea directed, is the manner in which Lavaca has been treated by the — line of steamers. ‘They pase over the first efforts of the command- er of the Yacht, under instructions, doubtless, from the owners, to break down the established customs of the place, and thereby subject the con- ape to unnecessary expense, delay, and trouble. The united resistance of the merchants succeeded, and the attempt was pot repeated, uatil the Yacht was taken from the line as a regular packet, and the larger class of boats contiaued their trips from Gulveston to Lavaca wt sending up their freight and passengers ina ai -lighter to be delivered at Lavees, according to established usage. This Practice contivued but a short time, when positive ipsiructions (as Was stated by the clerks of the boats,) were given to land all goods on one wharf, the necessary consequence ot which would have been, to have built o> an enormous business for one house, at the expense and rain of the rest of the forwarding merchants. For some short tume this course was persisted in, but finally yielded. The next step was the of the propeller Jerry Smith, to be kept m the bay, meeting the large boats at the gts | in the lower bay, and broging up the freight and passengers to Lavaca. ‘This plan seemed to provide a remedy for all evils, end likely to obviate all difficulti owners a to do = ulties _ to the ppere. £0 jong as a disposition ice to O bw gd be Lavaca was a ¢ propeller coming up wit! peskeetad eo fee ts and back freight.

Hut the worst fi e in the management of Deeers. Harris & Morgan's boats, 1s the treatment to passengers, paying passage for and destined to Lavaca.

Voluey E. Loward, who, with a sick lady and children, was refused permission to come on board the Galveston, we believe, some three trips ago, notwithstanding he had been hur ried off upon information said to have been sent ‘23 by the captain or clerk of the boat—the purport of which was that the paseengers must come down as soon as possible, as the propeller would not be upin time to connect with the boat, But the beeves were not yet on board, and our mem- ber to Congress was forced to beatback to Indian- ola against a head wind, with a seasick lady and children, and im an open boat! Inthe above case hames are given, in order, if the statement be in- correct, the accused may vindicate themselves. Such has been the course of the steamers for seme months past, 1n violation of the rights of pas- sengers and the published promises of the owuers, and without even the shadow of an excuse. But latterly subterfuge and deception have been re- sorted to in palliation of a public outrage; in proof of which the committee have only to refer to an advertisement taken from the New Orleans Picay- une of the 13th November.

Under this public contract the passenger embarks tor Lavaca, and oa the arrival of the steamer in the bay below, expects to be sent forward to his destination; but on the arrival alongside of the pro- pelier, the passengers are told that they can go on shore in the lighter. And then, if a remonstrance is made, and they require to be landed at Lavaca, the captain or clerk points to the advertisement above, in the conclusion of which, upon close in- spection, may be found these words: **The stean er Jerry Smith will go alongside and take passen- gers immediately to Indianola, and freight a passengers) to that pot and to Lavaca,” A plain interpretation of which 1s a confession by the owners, through their agents, of their own dupli- city and cunning. We have deceived and cheated you to get_your money, and now you may make the best of it. This is strong language, but warranted by the facts in the case. To the “reduced rates of freight,” the com- mittee will briefly advert. The established rates before the mtroduction of steam, were $1 per bar- rel, or 20c. per foot. Wet barrels, hhds. and terces being classed with measurement goods, and subject to a deduction of fifths. From Messrs. Morgan and Harris’ schedule, the following items are selected :— Carriages, $6 a $25; ale and cider, per barrel, 25; axes, per box, 37\c. (measuring but little over six inches), cider, per box, 40c.; castings, iron, lead, shot, and hardware, in pack: weigh- ing over 500 lbs., ge. per lb.; nails, per keg, 50c. demijohns, empty, 30c.; do. filled, el; shovels and apace, per bundle of 1 doz $1; soap, wine, cheese, per box, 374c.; raisins, and all packages of hke and smaller size, B5e hides, salted and dry, 25 a 30c. each! salt, coflee, and pimento in sacks, 80e.; fi 25, and flour, fruit, and other dry bbis., hds. bacon, $5; do. sugar, $6. From the above example of prices it will be seen at once by those familar with the subject, that the rates of freight, instead of being reduced, are augmented. | ‘our committee have thus presented facts fairly establishing these important points. That the trade of Lavaca Bay is sufficient to sustain a line of boats in a direct trade between New Orleans the town of Lavaca—that there is suflicient ih of water up Lavaca Bay to the town of waca for all the purposes of the coasting trade by seagoing steamers; and that the course pur- sued by ap) tegen line towards Lavaca, trom the beg’ the experiment to this date, has been cha: ized by continued efforts, directly and mare » to injure the business prospects of the place. if that this last position has been full and fairly established, the airase of Lavaca ion no time to lose.
