Steamship Companies which ply between New York, Boston and European ports have been having a lively time of it and the cutting of rates has been general.
Now the Canadian lines, Allan and Dominion live3 are following suit and are reducing their rates of fare.
The Dominion Line announces that here" after the first class rate between Canadian ports and Liverpool will be $50 in place of $55 and $60 as tormerly..
tates from Boswon will be $60 in place of the former rate of $75.
The 2od Claes rate on the Dominion Liners Boston-Liverpool service has beea reduced from $40 to $37.50
The second class rate between Canadian ports and Europe will remain as heretofore $35 00,
Allan Line has reduced its minimum rate between Canada and European ports to $50, the same as the Dominion Line has beea, and has met the cut of their competitors at all pointe,

Sir,—I am glad to see the people on the south side ,of the river are making @ move ia this matter, and if they kesp at it there will be good results. More power to them ; they will bave the support of every merchant in the city. I would here call their attention to a matier of far greater direct importance tothem, that is the necessity ef having the boilers of the steamers inspected. Fer yesrs past there hae been no Government inspection of the ferry steamer and I think I am safe in saying that there is not another steamer in the world that ie left inthisstate. The boilers may be ali right; but they are gett- ing old and they may be ell wrong, and some day, with a lot of passengere and teams on board, the boilers may blow up» and thev where would the passengers be? The people who cross in the Rocky Point boat are in a worse box in this respect than the others, as the boat is older. It ie time the people spoke on the matter and they shoud speak with mo uneertain sound. By all means get the bridge built; but meaowhile don’t taxe the risk of having twenty orthirty people blown to pieces some day on the Southport or Rocky Poiat ferry by the boilers blowing up-
