The trade is made to look at tractive to newcomers by reason of the magnificent cargoes which are louled on the coast, but it is not easily realised. that to steam up and down the coast discharging and loading cargoes often involves entering as many as ten or a dozen ports, and steaming about twenty-five hundred miles. The ot penses of the voyage are consequently very heavy.
