STEAM NAVIGATION IN Ri SSIA. {Prova the Aazeiger Zeitung.) Weare enabled to communicate the following authentic data relative to steam navigation in Rus- sia. Since the year 190%, when Fulton introduced | the first steamer into North America, this dis- covery was speodily brought into general plica- tion, y fer coasting service. In St. Peters burg the first steamer was built in 1810, by Charles Nikolajewitsch ; it was constructed in our own manufactory, and was at first employed merely for conveying passengers across to Cronstadt, and oe: casiovally for taking ships intow. From this riod steam navigation was more and more veloped in Nureig, and is now employed to a large extent in the Baitic, the Caspian, the Sea of Azov, the Black end White Seas, the Pacific, &e. St. Petersburg alone has thirty-seven steamers, which trade with Cronstadt, Veterhof, Oranienbaum, Scblusselbeurg, level, Helsingfors Abo, Stock- holm, Lubeck, Copenbagen, Havre, and London. In the year 1545, lished Between i! steamers, under the Russian flag, traded on the Neva and coust of inland ; since I¥46 the line be ettin and St. Petersburg is traverse mer.

In the year 1830, not a single steam vessel of any doseription was to be found connect- in this country. Two steamers, and only two, at that time, belonged to the ‘Turkish navy, and there were alwost coustantly laid up i port. They were English built vessels; had as coasters betwee: yd and Scotland, carry- ing passengers und freight, uatil they were consi: dered entirely out of date, and were nearly worn out, when thi x we brought out bere aad sold to the Turks! The evens speed at which they could possibly be driven, [have been told, was five miles an hour! Astbhe Turks showed no disposition to embark in the enterprise of running steame;ss for sngers and freight between the different ports in their own country, Derete ef other nations had to commence it for them. The !inglish and the Aus- trians were the first to lead the way, and so foreign nations are concerned, the business continued chiefly in their hands ever since. the year IS3-, two bo: this service—one in Trieste. IN TURKEY. 8 wore built expressly for ingland and the other in nople and Smyrna. It was a great era when these two ports were thus connected by steam, though many doubted whether the enterprise would suc- ceed. Hofore, owing to the current in the Darda- nelles, the paaeae from Smyrna to Constantinople often required thirty days. Now, it could be per- formed to a certainty in thirty-six hours! At first, however, only the European merchants resident in the country were willing to incur the extra expense of sending freight by steam. The natives, with whom time bas never been considered as money, still continued to put their goods in sail vessels. Gradually, however, they began to learn thai there was a real pecuniary advantage in getting their | goods thrcngh in one day anda half, rather than | run the risk of a delay of thirty days, and soon more and larger steamers were called for, to do all the businers that offered; nor was there much delay in bringing them upon the ground. had succeeded so well between Smyrna and the capital, it was argued would succeed be- tween the capital and other important ports of the empire. ‘be number of steamers has, therefore, been steadily increasing from year to year, (and their size also,) until there are, at the present time, lines connecting Constantinople with princi- pal seaports in the Black Sea, the Sea of Marmora, und the Mediterranean. The great Austrian com- pany alone, (call he Lloyd,) runs steamers regu- ly from Cor inople to (jalatz, and up the Danube to Vienfff to Trebizond, touching at the intermediate ports; to Smyrna; to Nalonica; to Beirit and Alexandria; and to Trieste. The Turks, seeing the proftableness of these va- rious steamboat lines, have recen mbarked largely in nterprise themselves. tive com- panics have been formed, and steamers have boon partly procured from Eegiand, and —_ made on the ground, (the engines being [nglish,) and now they also are running in all directions. At first, after such companies were formed, sove- ral attempts were made to prevent foreign steamers from running between Turkish ports—but what right have the Turks to monopolize the carrying trade, even on their own coaste, while foreigners so earnestly desire to share the profits with them, and have so many powerful ambassadors and govern- ments to enforce their claims. Even in the short and narrow strait of the horus, along the ehore: of which the suburbs of metropolis extend, English and Russian steamers vie with the Turkish in carrying the native merchants, the bankers, and even the officers of government, back and forth, every morning and evening, between tacir dwelling houses and their ree of business. The harbor of Constaxtinople is now alive with steamers. Besides the Austrian, inglish, and Turkish already alluded to, thero are Russian steamers connecting this port with Odessa; there peg _ of French steamers connecting it with a three lines of ee ines (two of them serews) connecting it wit!

The ‘Turkish, the nglish, and the Austrians have each large boats steamers could be well supported. ‘The mystery is that with such opportunities for money making, the Americans, as yet, have not ventured into the arena of competition. We have one American steaier in these waters, owned at — by a Turkish company. She formerly run tween called the old Bangor when she was brought out here, many years ago. She was superannuated in America, and in a state of decrepitule, came out to try her fortune among the Turks. And she still survives and has made a good deal of money; and having lately renewed her youth, she has etart- edout atresh in the workl, with apparently very good prospects. J wish, however. we could have here @ specimen ofa first rate American steamer. She should be built under the direction of some one who knows the wants of the country; should have very little ¢abin roow, but a capacious hold and capacious dceke, nnd should run at least fiftecn miles an hour, Few of the natives of this country ever take a cabin paseaze, oven when abundantly eble to pa; They prefer the open air above to the confine below. All they want is room to rug flat on the deck, upon which they # time axd sleepin the night. For those ever, @ firet and second cabin are necossary, each of them with berths say for twenty-four persons. In the first cabin there should be state rooms, hand- comely finished.

Corco phody of London, 0; that Dr. Gardiner had left a letter of orcoran & Riggs, in favor of his brother, credit on for $10,000 ; that the residue of the funds realized | by him from the award were deposited, in part, in ; the bands ef Corcoran & Rigs, and princi, ally with the Life and Trust Company of New Yori and that the government, bebore receiving the.e accusations, had caveated the funds ; they | were held subject to this investigation; anJ | that the Doctor could not touch a dollar of them, oxcept by the consent of the govern- | ment; that the following extraordinary resaits ensued, viz.:—That upon a mere cxparte a3 | cusation, a man’s whole fortune had been taken out ofhis bands, so that he had neitherthe means | to indemnify his bail, nor to prepare for his defence —a defence which involved the bringing of witnesses from Mexico, who could not be reached by the | cess from this court, nor exported hy thotr rive evidence; that under these own government ‘og circumstances he thought it proper, more than a month since, to appeal to the President of the United States, who, after Keeping the matter under | advisement, had agreed that so much of the fund as might be neces: to indemnify bail, =e he specially deposited for that object. Mr. Carlisle submitted this letter, with the written assent of Dr. Gardiner endorsed pon it. |_ Mr. Woodward, for the U. S, examined the ; letter which tae Vresident bad written to Mr. Carlisle, and said that if the bail were sufficient, no | doubt this would be suflicient to indemuity them. | And he asked that the means of Dr.Gardiner should | be exhibited. It Spraared from the evidence, that the greater art of Dr. Gardiner’s award, which was between woand three thousand dollars, had been left by him in New York, and had boon caveated by the | President, and was held subject tothe verdict; that | the remainder—about eighty thousand dollars in stocks—was in the hands of Coreoran & Riggs; that exclusive of what they held in collateral for the two letters oferedit, they thought the stocks gufficient for them to guaranty $10,000—not more. The Judge was of opinion that at least $50,000 should be required upon this basis. Mr. Bradley remarked that the are were worth probably as much as had been paid jor them, bat | that the only question was asto the ability to give bail. The government hold the whole of the Doc- tor’s fortune, and this humane agreement of the President only transferred a part of the funds from the caveat to the recognisance; so that, with regard | tothe government, the amount was unimportant. However, as to the defendant, it was all-important that the bail should not exceed forty thousand dol- lar, as this amount was proven to be all that Cor- coran & Riggs could guarantee, without receiving commission, upon these stocks. He expressed the opinion that it should not be forgotten that in re- juiring the whole amount of these stocks to be used t bail, the defendant was left without means to prosecute the defence. sates Cronteen remarked that the bail ought Not to be less than $40,000.
