Consecration of Two Bishops.
Rev. Drx. Atkinson, of Maryland, and Davis, of
South Carolina, were, this morning, consecrated to
tbe Episcopates of North and South Carolina, at St.
John’s Chapel, which wis as full as it could bold—
Tbe ground tloor was appropriated to the members of
the Convention and their families, and to such others
as there was room for, tho deputies beiug accommo
dated. The galleries were thrown open to.tbe public
without rwtnctlon.
The scene was exceedingly Imposing. Over thirty
bishops In ttaefa robes, two of them English Bishops,
were present; tho greatest number ever before con
vened In au American church. Beside these there
was a greal array ol minor clergy, many of them in
surplices, and among them were Arohdeacon Sinclair,
of Middlesex, England, and Rev. Messrs. Cassell and
Hawkins of tho English cbarcb.
The two Bishops elect sat in front of thfi chancel In
Miiipte win*© «owua, nr rockets, and in tho pews on
either side sat Presbyters of tho dloccsses or South
and North Carolina. Some of the Bishops occupied
the interior of the chancel, and others sat in chairs
directly In front
Morning prayer was said by tho Rov.Drs. Ilanckel,
of South Carolina, and Watson, of North Carolina,
both membera or tho general convention. The ante
communion Bervico was commenced by tho Bishop
(Hopkins) of Vermont, the Bishop (Smith) of Ken-
tacky reading the epistle, and Bishop Spencer, of the
English cbarcb, the gospel.
The services of the day (Te Dcum and Bcned ictus,)
were simply chanted by the choir and congregation.
Tho sermon was preached by Rt. Rev. tho Bishop
of Frederickton", from 2 Tim., cb. i. v. 5, Oond 7:—
" Wherefore I put thee in reraerabranco , that thou
stir up tbe gift or God, which is in tbeo, by tho put
ting on of my bands; for Ood balh not given ns the
spirit of fear, but of power, and ot love, and of a
sound mind. ’’
This was a most elaborate and learned discourse,
delivered with great plainness and earnestness of
-speech, and was listened to with the deepest atten
tion by the large congregation present.
It was a defence of the Episcopal doctrine of the
apostolic right, power, and authority of the Bishops
of that church, and a searching analysis of the duties
. of those called upon "to do tho office and work of a
Bishop. ” The preacher's address to the candidates
for consecration was very eloquent and aflbatlon&te.
The sermon being concluded, tho Bishop elect,
(Davis) of South Carolina, was presented to the pre
siding Bishop, by Bishops Green and Freeman, and
tho Bishop elect (AtkiitBon) of Maryland, by Bishops
WblUlngham and Cobbs.
Koch of them promised conformity to tho Protest
ant Episcopal Chnrch in tbe usual form.
Tltci testimonials of the diocesan and general con
ventions were read by tho Secretary of the House of
Bishops, and then tho solemn oeremony of tho “ im
position of bands,” in which the American and Brit
ish Bishops united.was performed; after which tho
Holy Communion wa* administered—JVeut York

Railroad Schemes.
Itwonid scorn from Msj. Young’a letter, coupled
with the statoment of tho Republican which callod it
forth, that in tbo conversation and correspondence
between the parties in reference of tho union between
the Savannah and Brunswick Railroad enterprises,
some misunderstanding occurred. This wo regret—
However, we hope that it will not be the means of
opening again the controversy between tbo vival in
terests.
For ourselves wo hold to tho position long since
taken by os—let both roads be built. Each company
claims to have within its reach abundant resources—
Lot them then both build—and our word for it the
public will gain thereby. Tho immense region of
country lying between Savannah and tho Gulf of Mex
ico, and south of the Central and South-western road,
will, whou its resources are fully developed, furnish
freight and travel enough to siutaiu both. So at
least we think, or if anything be wanting it will be
supplied by tho through freight and travel on these
great routes from tbo Atlantic to the Gulf of Mexico.
As regards the great body public interested in these
works—who will number perhaps fifty to one of tbe
Btockholda—it needs no argumeut to Bhuw that as to
them two roads will be better than one. With two
roads they are protected against a monopoly, awl the
abusca which a monopoly almost luvarlaUly begets.
They bavo ofibrod to them, or will have as soon as
Brunswick Is built up, two markets instead or one.—
Charges for freight and travel will be kept
down to a reasonable rate by competition. Add to
this the important fact, that the two running at an
average distance of thirty or forty miles asunder, tvill
furnish facilities of access to very many who would
be left at too remote a distance to avail themselves of
a single line, however located.
The platform then upon which wo stand is to har
monize all interests by tbe consummation oftboth
schemes. In place of any petty jealousy let there bo
a noble rivalry between tho two companies. Instead
of any eflbrta to injure tho other let ouch strive to be
first to finish its work. When completed, if tho ft’uits
of them bo not equally divided between tho two
places, Savannah and Brunswick, let them share in
proportion to tho advantages which they can offer to
tho public.
Arrival of tlie Royal Mall Steamship Con
way lit Distress.
Yesterday, aboutll A.M.',’the Royal Mail Steamship
Conway, Capt. G. W. Hicks, was announced os com
ing up the river. A few months since this fine steam
er was a regular visitor to this port, runuing between
here and Jamaica, toucliiug at various intermediate
island ports, but some time Binco discontinued her
trips, and became employed as a mail stcamet on
the Northern Island route between St. Thomas and
Demerara, consequently her arrival at this port at
tills time was as unexpected as it was uninokud for.
But an explanation was soon received. It appears
site left St. Thomas on the 3d Inst, for Demerara, via
her usual courso, when nt S.lfi, A. M. f on the 4tb,slie
struck heavy on tlie Beil Tate Shoal, situated on tho
North-west part of tho islaud of St. Kitts, loosing her
rudder and seriously damaging her keel, causing her
to leak badly.
Apprehending serious consequences boats were
immediately lowered, landing passongers, mails and
specie ; bnt at 5.15 P. M., the vessel drifted off the
reef, when a spar was got over for a rudder, with
wbiuh an attempt was made to Bbape her course for
bt. Thomas, but It was soon found she would not an
swer her helm, the new rudder proving wholly Inad
equate to manage her course. A new rudder was nt
once constructed on board, from tho topmast and
planks, which was got into place with all possible, dis-
patch and which with difficulty answered any useful
purpose, from tho split and shattered condition of the
keel. She finally reached Basse Terre, the principal
town and port on the Island of St. Kitts, where tlie
redder from a condemned ship was obtained and ad
justed, whereupon the vessel’s courso was set back
for St. Thomas, where she arrived at 3.40, P. M., on
the 7th, having oontinudU to leak so badly os to ren
der it difficult to keep her afloat, even by tho uso of
her powerful engines working tho pumps.
Immediately on her arrival at St. Thomas her cargo
was discharged and divers employed to survey her
bottom, wlion it was found that her keel had been
rent from tho stern post to tbe mainmast, with the
entire loss of her cutwater. Prompt measures were
considered necessary to save her from a total loss,
and it was determined to make for a dry dock. Su-
vannah being the nearest, and affording every facili
ty for speedy aud complete repairs, it was resolved to
cliooso this port instead of attempting to reach New
Yurk, notwithstanding the inconvonlcnce and possi
ble difficulties anticipated from leaving exclusively a
black or native crew to be landed and continued for
au indeflnited time iu tho port of s slavo State. Tbe
peril of tho vessel, however, rendored it desirable to
reach tbe nearest dock, at tbe expomo of ail other con
siderations, consequently the Conway sailed from bt.
Thomas on the 13lb,at 4, P. M., tho weather being line,
with light airs. On tbe 10th it becamo squally, with
a long N.E.8well. On tho 17th sqnatly and unset-

The steamship Palmetto, which reached Charleston
at 11 o’clock Friday nlgbt, was seventy-two hours iu
making tbo passage from Baltimore.
When abreast of Bull’s Island the Palmetto took iu
tow the schooner Mobile, from New Orleans, which
had lost her sails, etc., was out of water, aud leaking
badly.
The Palmetto reports os being off Charleston Bar,
one bark with loss of topmasts, and lower mast heads
and having her ensign union down; a brig with loss
of topmasts and lower mast beads, and a brigantine
with topmasts and lower mast beads gone. Tho brig
and brigantiue bad flogs or distress, also, flying. The
Palmetto could not makq out tho nalues of either of
the vessels.
Capt. Vardy informs ns that ho never was in such

who would have gladly gone to her relief even under
the peculiar circumstances in which he himself was

Wo are indebted to Parser MoKknny, of tlie
Charleston and Savannah steamer Calhoun, which
vessel arrived hero last evening, for the fallowing
items, viz:
At an early hour yesterday morning a schooner ar
rived in Charleston harbor, and anchored in the
stream, with masts gone. No name or other particu
lars learned. Soon after a Bark, with main-topmast
gouo, and otherwise Injured by the receut storm, ar
rived. At about 8 A. M., a dismasted Brig was towed
into port by a steamer. On crossing tho bar, in com
ing out, another dismasted Brig was seen in tow of a
steamer, making port. When about Qflccn miles
south of tho bur, outside, the Calhoun fell in with tho
Brig John Dutton, of Boston, in a dismasted condi
tion. Ou qpeaklng her it was ascertained she need
ed no assistance. Sho made far Charleston.
We learn from a roveuuo officer who was on board
tbe IVm. Gaston, wbich weut down the harbor last
night to look after tho Alabama, then momentarily
expected, that tho hermaphrodite brig Steward,
from Baltimore, was met inside Tybeo light,coming

Native produce was high and scarce. Business ex
tremely dull. The changing tho Island from a Repub
lic to an Empire has no totter security to life, liberty
and property. Taxes were accumulating and much
discontent created by lliv arbitrary power of the Era-

The cases of yellow fever number 89, or whom 9

Business Prospects of Columbus.
Wo wore gratified iu reading’the following account
of the tUrlving condition of onr sister city, Colum

by tho lost rapil. The intelligence, hospitality and
noto fully {twi^koned enterprise of Columbus, uiuke

" By a contluunnco of the public spirit and enter
prise of our citizens, Columbus bids fair to realize the
hopes of the most sanguine. Binco the completion
or our railroad/a new Impotua is glveu to every de
partment of trade. More cotton will come to us this
season, than ever heretofore. Oar buyers, by tho ra
pid facilities for transportation, are enabfod to give
tbe highost prices. Our merchants receive tho heavi
est goods per railroad via Savannah. Wo are depend
ant no longer upon tlie high water of the river; but
day by day hundreds of bales »f cotton arc scut off,
and goods received. We are thus enabled to pay tin*
highest prices and sell at tho cheapest rates and very
reasonably- - for goods are not now forced to remain
in the warehouse at Apalachicola to accumulate stor
age, and commission, and insurance bills : nor cotton
and other produce to lay by tho month In our ware
houses. Our city is full of life and activity. One
day last week, 1,000 bales of cotton were brought to
market; our streets are crowded with wagons. It is
truly interesting to take a look towards tlie end of
Randolph-street. vast mountains almost of cotton
bales, and goods loading uud unloading; the arrival
and departure of trains; the animation aud zeal man
ifested everywhere and by every body, gives a fair
prognostic of our future.
" It is in onr power to extend these advantages.
The completion of tho Girard and Jfohlle road ; the
connection with Eufauia.and tlie Opnlika branch will
pour into our laps a load of wealth. We were tardy
in making Ufa start—let ns profit by our brief expe

to power and progress."
Governor of Tennessee.
The Honorable Andubw Johnson, the recently
olocted JJaiwcratic Governor of one of tlie four
States which last full voted against Pierce, was in
augurated last Monday. His inaugural address main
tains tho character which he had established far him
self in Congress, as a down right, earnest and thor
oughgoing Republican.. It is thus analysed by tho
Noslivillo American :
" 1st. Gov. Johnson believes it the duty of the
Democratic party, at tho present momentous crises,
to recur once more to first principles, and confine the
‘govL-mncnt within the ancient landmarks, ns laid
down by Jefferson, and the other great founders of
tlie Deinooratlo party. He insists upon a strict con
struction of the Federal constitution, and an appeal
to tlie States, iu all cases of doubtful power, far an
express grant of such power, if deemed compatible
with the public interest.
•• 2d. He favors a well regulated and judicious sys
tem of Internal Improvements by tlie btate, • intend
ed and calculated to give all reasonable facilities to
the Mechanical, Agricultural aud Commercial pur
suits of tlie country.’
" 3d. On the important question of the power of
the Legislature to grant tlie right ol way, through
the real estate of individuals, to companies author
ized to construct works of internal Improvements,
Gov. Johnson suggests that, at an early day, some
boundary sbpuld be Uxed by the Judicial tribunals or
the people themselves, and that such boundary, when
fixod, shonld bo tto public necessity, aud not the
mere assumption or public convenience.
** 4th. Tjie education or the groat mass of the peo- cr *. and a copy ’bonded me :
pie, and the elevation and remuneration of the labor- *■— —— -
er, are subjects which have long engrossed Gov. John
■on’s^atteution and eulisted the tost wishes of his
heart. In this paper those subjects are recurred to,
and enforced with eloquent ability.
"5th. On the subject of tho Public Domai Gov,
Johnson believes it should bo consecrated to 1 ao high
and beiicflcient purpose of providing homes or tlie
peoplo. This policy would augment the national
happiness nnd wealth iu time of peace, and in time
of war it would raise up tho only kind of a standing
army whieh cau safely bo relied upon and trusted iu
a republican government.
" Sueharo tho lending topics discussed in tho first
paper of the new Governor. They are handled with
uncommon ability and iu that earnest spirit which is
characteristic of its author. Tim whole document
should be attentively rend and pondered upon. We
ruay have occasion again to refer to it, and discuss at
length somo of its suggestions.”
On the subject of Internal Improvements by tho
General Government, we give somo of Gov. John
son’s remarks:
Georgia IVatchman. and wore surprised to I turn uj
the annonaxmont therein raado, that any negotia
tions were pending between the Baronnah and Alba
ny Railroad, and Brunswick and Florida Railroad
companies, with a view of concentrating their Inter
ests and uniting iu building a common Road, west-
wfrd to tlie Gulf. Upon inquiring into tho facta,
we have tbe moat positive assurance from the Presi
dent ol tbe Savannah and Albany Railroad Company,
that no arrangements have been made or are even
likely to be made or entereil into, for the anion of these
roads. " There are no negotiations ponding between
tto Brunswick and Florida Railroad Company and
tho Savannah aud Albany Company, with a view to
bring about a compromise between them.” The
conditions or the organization of the Savannah and
Gulf Railroad Company under the Albany charter
are (to construct a road to Albany and through tlie
Southern port or Georgia to Tallahassee, for the tone-
fit of those soettens of country, Independently of, and
without referenoo to the Brunswick and, Florida Rail
road. This company have no proposition to submit
to tho Brunswick company, and although they may
to willing to receive propositions from tlio Brunswick
company, wo beliove that aa yet no formal proposi
tions have been made by tho Brunswick company to
tho 8nvannuh and Albany Railroad Company, far tho
purpose or uniting their Interests and tboir efforts.—
Wo havo thought it our duty to make these state
ments, in order to place the matter in Its true posi
tion for tho information of parlfas interested, at homo
aud abroad."
This statement may be true, but it U not the whole
truth, and therefore docs me injustice. Iu my letter
to tlie Board, I said to thorn:
" Since my interview with you In tho city of Now
York, I have had tho pleasure of a conference with
tho President and oue nr the Directors of tho Savan
nah and Florida Railroad Company, relative to tho
union aud concentration of the efforts of the two
Companion far tho purpose of connecting the Atlan
tic and Gulf waters, by means of a road throagb
Southwestern Georgia. The result leaves me with
out doubt, that you will, in a abort time, receive from
tbe proper source such proposals as will meet your
approbation and acceptance."
The belief so confidently expressed by me in that
letter wus based upon what I then thought to ho good
reasons, nnd which it is duo to tho Brunswick Com
pany nnd mvself should bo made kuowu. On my
way to New Vork, iu August, I called u|K»n Dr. Scre
ven, President, and Mr. Roberts, one of tho Directors
of tho Savannah and Albany Company, and conversed
with them on tho subjuct of a compromise between
onr roads and a union of Interests. Both of these
gentlemen then seemed not only willing, bnt very de
sirous that such a union should be liau. We agreed
very nearly upon the basis of a compromise, but no
formal proposals wore mado, ns I had no authority to
represent our Company, and they had then only a
“ provisional organization,” and in my usual plain
mode of dealing, I did not suppose any mere want or
farm should prevent my relying upon those conver
sations sufficiently to propose action npon them, ns I
felt bound to use my efforts to bring about a union
upon tlmt basis, and believed that these gentlemen
were actuated by tbo same spirit. When I readied
New York I met Mr. Nightingale, another of our Di
rectors there, and addressed tho fallowing joint note
to the Board:
New Yokk. Sept, 7th, 1853
Tho nndorsignod, citizens of the State of Georgia,
and Members of tho Board of Directors of tho Bruns
wick and Florida Rail Road Company, having had
several interviews with prominent and influential
citizens or the city of Savannah, who are now engag
ed in forming u Company to construct a Rail Road
west to somo point on the Gulf of Mexico, being satis
fied from the communications of those gentlemen as
well as other circumstances, that there exists on tlie
part of the citizens of Savannah nu earnest and sin
cere desire to co-operuto with tho Brunswick Rail
Road Company In constructing Roads from eacli of
the above named places, npon just, fair, and equita
ble terms, tog lervo to ask ot this body, to place
themselves in a position to entei tain and act upon any
proposition tho citizens of Savannah may submit to
them.
(Signed) P. M. Niqiitinoalb.
E. B. Young.
To tho President and Directors of the liruuswick and
Florida Rail Road Company.
Upon this letter and tho verbal statements made
by us iu accordance with what passed between my
self and these .Savannah gentlemen, the Board of Di
rectors adopted tlio following resolution :
Mr. Dexter offered the following resolntlon:
Voted, Tlmt tlie whole subject matter now present
ed to thin Board, by tlio letter of E. R. Young aud P.
M. Nightingale, Esq’rs., and fortified by their re
marks, is received with favor and respect by the Di
rotors : that it to roferr cd to tlie President of tho
Company, and Messrs. Paine and Davis us a Commit
tee, to receive any formal communication which the
citizens of Savauiiah may now, or hereafter, propose
to this Company within a period of three months
from this date; and to act upon the same, reporting
tho result of their negotiation, when concluded, to the
Company for confirmation and ratification.
Having received a copy of tills resolution', on my
return to Savannah, I again called upon these gentle
men, and after a full discussion of the points to to
settled by negotiation, at the request of Mr. Roberts,
I furnished them with a statement which is embodied
in tlie fallowing memorandum drawn off by Mr. Rob-
Medal. As Socretary of tbe AcjuW of Selene*, to
bad a vast field for research, and published many no-
tires of new applications and discoveries. He was a
member of nearly all tbe scientific societies of Europe
and of some In this oountry.
It was not alone as a aclentlflo man that Arago
achieved celebrity. He was distinguished iu litera
ture, in oratory end In politics. Daring tto brief ex-
lstonoo of the Provisional Government In France, iu
1848, be held the Important poet or Minister of Ma
rine, and obly discharged it* duties. Tbe passing
away ot such a man may cause less Immediate sensa
tion than tho death of a King or an Emperor, but all
the crowned heads of earth ooald not fill tbe real void
caused by tbe withdrawal of so learned. last and no
ble a spirit (him tho fields of science, and uni
men.

" Having now, however, in view, tho many impor
tant works, about wbich there in ho much solicitude
on tho part or a large portion of tlio peoplo nr the
United States, and which is now occupying tlie at
tention of thetloncral Government my own deliber
ate opinion is',' that before the General Government
advances another step in the works of Iutornul Im
provement, at least those of a doubtful character,
there shonld bo au appeal made to'the several States
composing tlie compact, to definitely fix and accurate
ly describe tho utmost boundry of power intended to
bo exercised by the General Government in the con
struction of Internal Improvement. Tbe Govern
ment, on u subject so grave and deeply important as
the ono now^igitating tlie publio mind, should move
within limita well ascertained, both ns to tlio power
and amount of money to be raised by taxes, and to
bo expended in the various projects of Internal Im
provements, which may hereafter bo projected. IJ
tho States Intend that tho General Government shall
embark in n gizantic scliemo of Internal Improve
ments, let tho power to conferred as provided in tlie
Constitution of the United States. If not, let the
General Government at once to arrested, and con
fined within tlio written command of tho States who

In Wall street financial circles, the opinion prevails
founded on special advices, that no war will take
f ilacc ; that oven a Turkish declaration of war, while
t would satisfy tho feelings of tho Turkish population,
would only hasten a settlement; that tbe tnree north
ern powers, onco perceiving any spirit of determina
tion to act on the part of Turkey aud her sunporlers,
would themselves yield. This, they say, is also the
feeling of English large capitalists, altliongh tho
English fands have declined.—AT. Y. Eve. Post, 18th.

meeting held by tho Directors of tlio Brunswick
and Florida Railroad Company, held in Now York,
September Oth, 1853:
Wliich statement is explanatory of tho subject mat
ter entertained by tbe Brunswick and Florida Rail
road Company as proper for negotiation, between
tbo Savanuali and Albany Railroad Company and
tlio Brunswick and Florida Company. The resolu
tion passed, In New York, says:
" The whole subject matter now presented to this
board by the letters of E. It. Young and P. M. Night
ingale, Esqre.. nnd fortified by their remarks, U re
ceived witli favor and respect by tbe Directors.”—
Now, in ns much as the extent of tlie subject matter
for negotiation is a limited one, and not set farth In
the resolution passed by the meeting of tbe Directors
in Now York; and it is desirable to ascertain tlie ex
tent and nature of tbe subjects to be negotiated, by
and between these two Companies, It is deemed de
sirable that Mr. Young should make a statement, as
tbe basis of negotiation, wbich lie does os fallows :
K. It. Young. Esq., states, that the Brunswick and
Florida Rail Road Company are disposed to negotiate
with tlio Savannuii and Albaliy Rail Road Company;
terms and conditions tlmt will tend to aid each of
them with their contemplated Rail Road schemes, as
followsthat is to say—tlie Brunswick company Is
willing to submit the proposition of continuing a Rail
Road from Savannah nnd a Rail Hoad from Brunswick,
wcstwardly to some point to be agreed upon, there
tlie two Roads to unite nnd continue on to such poiut
connecting with the Gulf of Mexico—aa may bo selec
ted—and the proposition is to bo entertained wheth
er the entire Roads are to to ono cummon stook.or
whether there shall be three seperate divisions of
Stock nnd three seperate divisions of interests
these are the mniu subjects mentioned at tbe meeting
of Directors of tbe Brunswick and Florida Rail Road
Company at their meeting in New York, September
9th, lm
Dr. Screven informed mo then that he intended
going to New York very soon, enquired tbe address
of our committee, and stated that he would see them
there.
Pending these proceedings, Dr. Screven addressed
me tho following letter:
Savannah. Sept. 14, 1853.
Dear Sir:—Having bad several informal conversa
tions with you on tbe subject of Railroads, in wbich
your section of country and Savannah are interested,
but as they can lend to no practical result, I have to
nay tlmt Savannah is now represented by an organi
zation based upon the Savannnh ami Albany Rail
road Charter, and tlie Directors of that Company
will receive any propositions you may bavo to make
from tlio Brunswick Railroad Company.
Very respectfully,
Your ob’t servant,
Jah. P. Screven,
President 8. and A. 1L Company.
Mqj. E. R. Young.
1 mado no formal proposals in reply thereto, that
new authority, aa tho proceedings showed, rested Iu
a committee, but as in onr conversations, the points
of difference as to a compromise wens but trivial, as
I knew the liberal views of tb© Bvuaswtak Company,
and supposed these gentlemen were in earnest In
their desires. I felt fully authorized in the belief
that upon Dr. Screven’s arrival at New York, terms
could readily be agreed on. Believing tbns, and
knowing that, in the event, Savannah ought to have
a representation in the Board. I sent in ray resigna
tion. This was all done in a spirit of kindness to
wards Savannah, and with tbo confidence that it
would be raet in the some spirit.
The President of tbe Savannah road states that'no
arrangements have been made, or are even likely to be
made, or entered into for the union of these roads."
This may bo truo now, and J trust is, but Dr. Screven
knows that then were reasons to Indnce a different
opinion not long since. The 8avannah Company
propably feels Itself strengthened by tho prospect ot
tho ton millions of dollars from England, sad. tho
Florida subscription so that she bos no desire fora
onion now, but even these may yet turn oat as did
her Baker Coanty subscription ofa million aud a half
of dollars to this same rood.
I fully admit that bat a short time since. I was de-
slriuas of this anion with Savannah, bat that desire
oxist no longer. Our Brunswick Company have am
ple means to build onr own rood. We have the noar-
est and straigbtest route which can to bad to connect
our Atlantic coast wUl the best Golf port Onr road
will seoure a large amount of thought and way travel
and more valnoble local trade than any other can,
