. The growth of the foreign commerce of
this port,; as. haa beep shown; statistically,
time and again, in tbe Stab,' has been such
within a few, years , asjto dem bnstrate one'
fact beyond cavil: that proper effort will
enlarge it to dimensions which, before an
other decade, would give us a population
of at leaat fifty thousand souls. It was only J
me oiner oay.iaat one urmseot aoroaa ra
the barque George Davis a cargo which in-I
ciuoeu i,uiu paies cotton, z w oarreis
oakatavea, and 5,186 feet lumber. The
Norwegian barque FaUten cleared on the
stance are cited not because theyT ara:
jlated or unfrequent. hilt rather tcauae
soqahle endeavor such cargoes .Would ia
time become the rule rather than tbe ex
ception in the business Of our. port. ' . '
We do not depreciate the i value of our.
coastwise business relations; that will de
velop and increase in due' ,$mt as our In
terior connections by rail reach completion ;
but we hope to see special energy displayed
here in behalf of expanding foreign com
mercial transactions, for we have or' may
easily have ; facilities : for Increasing ". ,aif,
