We have asked our merchants to take $10,000 of the stock of the new vessel; thus, you see, we have the ahippera-on this end and those to whom- sblpannts are made at this end ot the route, owning stock In the boat, and specifying that all freight shipped to thorn shall bo shipped by this particular boat.
