Boston, New York and Newport Steamboat Company.—Those accustomed to the conveniences and comfort of the old Fall River route, between New York and Boston, will be glad to learn that the new Company, into whose hands this popular line has recently passed, have spared neither pains nor expense in increasing the elegance and convenience of their boats. The Metropolis has been thoroughly refitted, enlarged and refurnished at an expense of $100,000, and the Empire State is soon to be hauled off for similar improvements. Mr. E. Littlefield, the Agent of the Company in New York, has his office at No. 72 Broadway.
Hudson River Navigation.—Trips up the river have been resumed by the favorite steamer Mary Powell, under the charge of the popular Capt. Anderson. The boat will leave Jay street daily at 3½ o'clock p.m., stopping at West Point, Cold Spring, Newburg, Cornwall, New Hamburg, Milton, Poughkeepsie and Rondout.
The National Loan.—Seldom has any loan been so welcomed by the monied world as the United States 10.40 loan. In one month 33 millions were subscribed for, and there is no doubt but every dollar the Government wants will be got at 5 per cent. interest, payable in gold. It is the best investment of the day.
