That it comprises a territory of thirty-three, acres, upon which are extensive warehouses, mostly new, a grain-elevator nearly completed, with a capacity of 1,000,000 bushels, extensive wharves, and the finest dock, confessedly, in the city, for commercial purposes. We hope, at some future day, when the season is more advanced and the weather is more propitious, you will examine for yourselves, and decide whether these " other advantages " are properly adjusted or not. Cer- tain things over the...re are within our own control. No charge is made for wharfage on merchandise which has come or is going over our own road. We take all ocean-bound freight the additional distance to East Boston at Boston rates. We have bonded our road " to encourage imports " into the port of Boston, which some gentlemen think we should not have done. We receive, weigh in, store ten days, deliver and insure while ' in the elevator, all grain for one and one-fourth cents a bushel, which is one-half a cent a bushel less than is charged by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, whose arrangements are so highly complimented by the Committee upon the improvement of the South Boston Flats, for liberality to the merchants of Balti- more ; and I presume, though I do not know the fact, that their higher price does not cover insurance.
