The long-contemplated steamship line betwe:n this city and Liverpool has at l o wa been eStablithecl, in a very quiet s ad unostentatious manner; but it is sup raated by influences and commercial cora l-Ina:ions that will, we think, insure its perrcanence and prosperity. The old line of steamships was for a time well sustained. Our importers patronized it liberally, and the business of our Custom-house was much increased. But the loss of the ill fated City of Glasgow, the wreck of several other vessels on our coast, and, finally, the temporary withdrawal of all its steamers for the use of the British Government in sending troops and supplies to the Crimea, destroyed confidence in that enterprise, and rendered the subsequent efforts to re-estab lish it unsuccessful. Another drawback at that period was the difficulty of obtaining outward cargoes. This obstacle, however, has now been nearly removed forever, and a proper effort on the part of our merchants 'will erasure for the future of Philadelphia a }sigh rank as an exporting city. The new line is now composed of the Bosphorus, the Gambia, the Propontis, and the Hector ; but it is probable the present steamers will hereafter be substituted by two other foreign vessels, and two steamers built in our own city, to be called the Fair mount and the Southwark. They sail from Liverpool to — oston, discharging their passengers and a portion of their freight in that cis ; then, coming to Philadelphia, they receive their outward cargoes here, and proceed direct from this port to Liver pool. The first vessel that sailed was the Cambia, but a derangement in its ma chinery compelled it to return for repairs. The Bosphorus, with a full cargo aad seven hundred emigrants, sailed next, and it was the first to arrive, It obtained on its return trip about two hundred and fifty aeoond class passengers, (it has no accommodations :for first class passengers,) and a full cargo of freight, consisting in part of quercitron bark, provisions, tallow, oil-cake, etc. The Bosphorus, soon after leaving England, had the ill.fortaine to run down a fishing smack, which sunk, with five of the men on board. The remainder of its crew was saved. No other disaster marked the voy age of this pioneer of the new line. It hal acarealy left our wharves before the Gambia (which was speedily repaired) made its appearance. The tonnage of this vessel is • Smaller than that of the Bosphorus, but it lies the advantage of state rooms and first class accommodations for passengers; so that it supplies the facilities which are de ,manded by the large class who desire to Beek recreation and pleasure in Europe. Another vessel belonging to the new line Was announced to depart from Liverpool last week. The best assurance of the success of these steamers is to be found in the improved railway facilities Width have marked the interval that has elapsed since the abandon ment of our former attempts to establish direct steam communication with Liver. pool. Gradually and silently, step by step, little by little, Philadelphia has completed all the huge labors and forged all the mighty iron links that were necessary to ensure her the benefits or her advantageous geographical position, and to make her the most convenient and economical, as she is the most natural, outlet for the granaries of the Great West. These improvements have been of &local as well as of an extended scope.

But these are only ac_ cessories of the gigantic and magnificent railway combinations that have been com pleted. We have tife shortest and best routes to St. Louis and Chicago; and, what is more to the purpose for the object under discussion, we have now a line that is daily sending and receiving large quantities of freight to and from both those cities, with out a single change of cars. For speed and convenience, this is almost as great an im provement upon the old railway system of loading and unloading freight at the termi nus of each separate road as the locomotive is upon the Conestoga wagon. Western produce is forwarded here with wonderful celerity. Perishable articles, like butter and eggs, are transported almost as rapidly as passengers. The Union line requires little or no more time to bring our edibles from Illinois than an old-fashioned huckster-wagon consumed on a journey from Lancaster county to the stalls of Market street. Cars, loaded with wheat or provisions in the distant Western States, need never have their packages handled until they are placed on board the new steamships en rotate for England. This is an advantage, we believe, peculiar to this city, and one that should be promptly im proved. But we have not merely this marked su periority. The completion of the Phila delphia and Erie railway, after a long and wearisome struggle against adversity, gives ue the nearest and best route to the great internal seas of our country, and places in our keeping a key to the vast Lake trade that has so wonderfully en riched New York. We are now in a position to win the prizes; which our business men of former limes pined for in vain. We have not only equal, but greatly superior facilities for enlarging our internal trade with the fertile region that lies west and northwest of Pennsylvania.- It forms One-third of the Union in popula tion and wealth, and progresses with such magical rapidity, that it must soon greatly exceed that proportion. We present to this whole magnificent empire, the best ave nues for its extensive travel and traffic, alike from the points requiring direct rail road communication and those from which transit on the lakes is available. Now, since we have a line of steamships to send abroad, what can be so profitably for warded here, we should begin a new era in our commercial history, and regain the po sition with reference to foreign trade that we enjoyed in the days of GIRARD. Vehicular. In Wi17449 7 Spirit of the Times, a well known New York journal, we find the fol lowing "We direct `attention to the fact that an enterprising Frenchman has este bliehed a number of one-horse cabs, or coupes, in this city, and that their stand for the present is in front of the liaison Dora', Union Square. They take the passenger for fifty cents to any distance inside the Eatery and Forty-fourth street, and go by the hour for a dollar. We bespeak public favor for the enterprise, and hope it will be supported, as the only means of escape from our abominable and extortionate hack system." Let us put in a plea of the same character for Philadelphia, where hack prices appear to depend almost entirely „ taa• V OS,. price is regulated by law, and an overcharge is promptly and severely punished. In Paris an elegant glass coach, or voi ture de remise, can be hired for $5 a day— the obligation being that the driver must take you to any part of the city and to any place in the suburbs, and be subject to your order until midnight. Next to this is the eahriolet voitUre tie remiss, the fare of which is two francs (forty cents) for the single trip or course; and forty-five cents per hour ; after midnight five cents more are payable, and the same if the vehicle be taken outside the fortifications. Still cheaper is the voitsire de place; the fare, by the drive or course, is twenty-five cents, and, by the hour, only thirty-five cents. That is, if one or two persons are to be taken; if four persons use the voitere the fare is thirty cents for the drive or Course, and forty cents per hour. After the first hour, you are charged for the portion of the hour you may have the carriage in use, and not, as with us, for the full hour. There is an extra Charge of four cents for each trunk or large packet ; a hand valise or travelling bag is not charged for. The driver usually receives a small present, (" povr Loire,") for drink, but this is only from five to ten cents. The Paris drivers have the reputation of being very honest, and anything left in one of the public car riages may generally be found at the Pre fecture next day. In London, the ordi nary street-carriages are broughams and clarences, on four wheels, and the "Han som" cabs on two. A clarence holds four persons ; the brougham and "Hansom," (so called after the patentee) carry only two. Eaeh of these carriages is drawn, as in Paris, by one horse. The prices are fifty cents per hour for one or two persons, and twelve cents additional for every extra person, and twelve cents for every extra quarter of an hour. The ordinary fare, by the drive, for one or two persons, is only twelve cents a mile. In London, as in Paris, there is inexpensive and almost im mediate adjudication upon any diepute as to overcharge or complaint of ill conduct, and the punishments vary from fines to im prisonment, which is accompanied by for feiture of the license to drive. 'Without expecting that we can realize the advantage of such low fares as the above—especially as we have got into the bad habit of submitting, however grum blingly, to the excessive rates generally exacted here—we submit that light, one horse carriages, like the English cab of "Hansom," or the French voiture de plate, might, advantageously be introduced into all our great cities. If a man has got to go a mile or two in a hurry, he now has to take a large and lumbering coach, drawn by two horses, and must pay heavily for the superfluity. It is an anomely that your travel from New York to Philadel phia, nearly one hundred miles, costs no more than, sometimes not as much as, your transit from the foot of Walnut street or the depot at Kensington to your residence "up town," which may be considerably east of the Schuylkill. Light " cabs, " in which two persons can be comfortably ac commodated, would not cost one-third of the present large hacks, and there would be a great saving, too, in the expense, one horse being less costly than two. Above all, the regulations of travel—fares and conduct—ought to be clear and decisive, and complaints should be adjudicated upon by aldermen, or any other appointed ma gistrate, so as to make punishment, when necessary, immediate and certain. The enterprising Frenchman who has started a line of cabs in New York, will have imita tore, here and elsewhere, if his speculation shall finally "pay." The Collection of Customs.
