American Republican and Baltimore daily clipper. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1844-1846, 1846-06-01
We stated a day

Chesa peake Rltleman, now confined to bed by
illness, would be sufficiently recovered in few
days to join his company, in the Mexican cam
paign. We had, on Saturday last, an inter-
view with Doctor Kemp of Eutaw street, his
physician, from whom we learned that on the
| 25th Capt. SIS life was in great peril, from an
| attack of very acute inflammation of the bowels,
! with serious involvement of his brain, brought
on, in the opinion of the Doctor, by the great
fatigue and exposure endured by Capt. S. du-
ring the drilling of the company and, his repea-
ted travelling to Washington and Annapolis in
effecting the arrangements for their entrance
into the u. S. service. This attack requiring
most prompt and vigorous measures for its sub
dual, must incapaciLate the Captain for any ac-
tive exertion or camp exposure for several
months to come. Capt. S. is now convalescing,
but his condition is still critical. 1t may not be
uninteresting to our readers to state, that Capt.
Steiner, is the sun of the gallant Col. Stephen
Steiner, who took an active part in our late
war with Great Britain, and rendered his coun-
try much service in the field.
.Neao State Tobacco Warehouse. The Amer-
can states that Gov PRATT, in pursuance of
authority vested in him at the last session of
the Legislature, has purchased a very eligible
lot for the purpose of erecting thereon new
Tobacco Warehouse This lot is situated on
the North East corner of Charles and Conway
streets, fronting on the former l54 feet, and on
the latter 299 feet. On the North side it binds
on Perry street, not yet opened, and on the
East side on a twenty feet alley. The price Of
the lot is S25, 900. The Warehouse to be built
will not, of course, cover the whole ground,
but building of such a size will be immediate
ly erected, as, 1t is hoped, will accommodate
this valuable and highly important branch of
our citys trade.
