ARGENTINE AND THE SOUTH AFRICAN TRADE.
Messrs Houlder Bros, have inaugurated a line of regular steamers from here to South Africa (says the Buenos Ayrw correspondent of the " PastoraUsts , Review "), and four or five steamers will leave every month. These are fine (vessels, fitted up for passengers, with every comfort, capable of carrying large quantities of frozen produce. Another regular line just started is the South Atlantic Steamship Company, which will be a monthly service, I believe, to Capetown; so your readers will see we are doing a big trade with South Africa. Large numbers of mules are being shipped, and our breeders are receiving up to £26 per head on the station for realty good animals, which sell from £40 to £50 each in South Africa.
