The TOLEDO Blade announces the arrival at that port of the steamer COMMERCE direct from Quebec. The Blade says the COMMERCE is an elegant and fast-sailing steamer, of 237 tons, with a low pressure engine of 10 feet stroke and a 32 inch cylinder. Her cargo consisted of 100 tons Scotch Pig iron, 350 bags of fine Liverpool salt, 42 barrels of Seal Oil, and 40 casks Brandy and Port Wine, for Cleveland, and 400 barrels of Fish for that port.
