The Berlin correspondent of The Shout. wal wrote on the 18th September -
The Nordeutscher Lloyd at Bromen has just published a little passphlet containing In 1842 the history of its development. the first steunshi, the Washington, lets Bremen for New York, thereby opening up regular steam communication between the Continent, and the United States, Tan years later the Norddeutscher Lloyd Com. pany was manised, under the mangement of the late Herr Meier. Beginning with stall stermark, plying between Gorniany and England, it belered four large steamera from England and Scotland for a service New York. Its first Transatlantic steamer, the Branog seven hundred-horsepower, left Bremen on June 1, 1858, with vue cabin and ninety-three steerage passengers, and a cargo of pup hired tons. She was three hundred and thirty-four feet in leogth, and forty-two lect in beam. This first voyage took abous împarteen daya and a ball,

Since the oloupation of Kisechas, the two: greatest German Stextship Campanica, the Norddeutscher Lloyd at Hamburg, havo ombined to organise steam Lavigation on the Tang-ise River and along the Chiness cuarts, to the detriment, it is believed, of the English steamers, which are said to have abandoned all competition with the German engs. This is the more strange, Since it is a well-known fact that Germany is neither officers nor seamen enough to an all the ships of her Asiatic lines" axxl had to petition the Imperial Goromvent for leave to retain the services of English officers and men. One of the main tasks of the Society of German Cadet Ships' is to remedy this deficiency in the German Mercantile Marine.
With the introduction of swift storesers in 1881, by which the voyage between Bromer haven and New York nos recced to sight or nine days, the Norddeutscher. Lloyd entered into a new spoch of its history. In 1882, the twenty-fifth anniversary ofits exis tence, the Company's flest musterentwenty nine Transatlantic and seven Europea steamers, fourteen riverstanders, and forty || eight lighters: a total of ninety-seven ships with capacities varying from one hundred to five thousand tone. As far back as 1860, the steamers were trusted by: the English and the Oiled States Postel Adutinistrations with a portion of their maile; and they have curtel German mais since 1884.
