TEXAS NAVIGATION COMPANY,
and haTiag.now the command of a number
of Stoamboata, Barges and Toga, ia pre-
pared to afford the most ample meana of
Tcan^ortation from Galveston Bay to the
City of Houston. Thia Company offers
every inducement to Shippers to adopt
their lino, from the fact that they avoid
on%H Direct Freight from New York and
other Eastern Cities, all charges at Gal-
veston for wharfage, receiving and for-
warding, or for advancing on freights by
their line, and there are no charges for
receiving and forwarding freights sent
them by vessels not in their fine, whether
from New Orleans or elaewhere. Freight
intended for the interior of Texas, upon
annual at Houston, is forwarded to the
consignees on the fine of these roadá with-
out incurring any charges at Houston to
the Rail Road Depots.
Where «liipmenta are mado from New
York by their vesaels to Houston, there is
but a alight excess of charge over the price
of freight from New York to Galveston,
and all charges at Galveston are avoided,

This Company having invested a large
and sufficient amount of capital in this
enterprise to meet all the demands of this
trade, are prepared and determined to
make it an entire success, by offering in-
ducements to the whole interior trade of
lucements
the Státe.
This Coi
xuu Company w prepared to take Cot-
ton at the city of Houston by thia line and
whether intended for Galveston or else-
where, to save the shipper at least 33 per
cent, of costs of shipments by any other
mode.
_ There will be no charge upon or deten-
tion of Cottoa coming over any of the
Rail Soads to Houston, except dray age—
it will be promptly transferred from the
road to their boats and barges,

ouston Direct Navigation Com-
pany," and pledge their individual repu-
tation to afford satisfaction to thp public.
All consignments will be made to
