A misunderstanding with parties im the ¢ity juduced Mr. Koster to apply for an annulment of the subsidy and @ grant thereof to himself’ The government re- fused; the proposed line failed. It was about this time that Mesers, Rutalino & Co., of Genoa, and Draper & Co., of London, applied to and obtained from the rardinian government the subsidy of the North American tine, with an additional dfty thou sand dollars per annum for a South American and [talian line. ‘The result was the construction of the four steamers— Victor Emanuel, Count Cayour, Turin and Genoa, Two of these steamers, finished before the Crimean war, were immediately placed on the line, baving for tormini Genoa and Rio Janeiro, The Genoa and the other steamer (f) made several trips; with what success may be conjectured, from the fact that the steamers were withdrawn from the line and with the two otbers char- tered to the government for transport purposes during the Crimean war. Indeed the company had in tho first year of its existence met with serious loss, duo principally to careless or incompetent officers, The Genoa had a vala- able cargo ruined, and came near sinking, through care- lessness of her engineer, who left the delivery valve open. The Count Cavour grounded near Cadiz, and had to dixpose of part of her cargo and tackle to lighten her, Another steamer ran down and sunk in the Bosphorus @ deeply laden merchantman. Thee accidents were Accompanied by their law suits, damages, Ae. ; per & Company, of London, ‘failed, and with them the Italian-American line of steamships. The pro pellers wore hanled over to the Now Mole of Genoa, to otherwise disposed of. ‘The third agitation in favor of an American-italian line of steamships was by Commander (then lieutenant) Edward Barrett, of the United States S Th 1859 this gentleman published a series of articles under the head of “Propellers ,”’ subsequently he published a pamphtet which cansed ‘considerable Interest to be taken in the subject. The Italian war, closely followed by our rebol- Non, checked the undertak ng; it was put off for a future co < day. Wo will hero remark that Count Cavour gave Lisuten- Ant Barrett the credit of being the one who had made it evident to him that a Mediterrancan line of #teainers would be a remuneralive undertaking. Marquis Zreanbio Palaviani wrote that he had obtained a quan promise of a subsidy when Italy should be at peace, The question of an ‘American Mediterranean Hine is again on the fapis, Messrs, Mackay & Co, figure in one of the contemplated lines; M.
