"We aiso took in our passage, the crews of
four different boats that were lost in the late
storm, who informed ne that there were many
more lost between Memphis and Plum Point.
Mr. Charles Smith, who came passenger with
us from Raleigh, informs us that there were
two coal boats sunk at the mouth Of the Wa.
bash, the crews Of which, thirteen in number,
were all lost, except one man, by freezing and
drowning. Some succeeded in reaching the
timber on the Island, but il being overhowed.
they hung on the trees until they froze and
dropped in the river. Five miles above, ano.
ther boat with five men, was lost with al on
