- The beautiful and swift Belle Sheri.
dan arrived here yesterday morning at III
O'Clock from New Orleans. She brought up
dates Of the evening of the 22d, and was
thus lees than six days on her trip up. This
proves her a fast boat. She had no freight
for this place. Capt. Ned Montgomery was
on board. He authorized us to inform the
girls of Evansville he wanted their company
down to Henderson on his return, and that
they would find the Belle Sheridan ready for
their reception, and the officers disposed to
contribute in every manner to their enjoy
ment. After the delightful dance they had
on board the Belle Sheridan, while she laid
here on her last trip down, this elegant boat
10 their especial favorite, and Capt. Mont
gomery is their beau ideal of a steamboat Of
fcer. He says the ladies command the Sher.
idan when she lies at Evansville. By the
way, we thank Mr.. J. B. Bantam, clerk, for
favors. The Sheridan will leave Louisville
to-day, and be here Tomorrow morning. She
will take but little freight at Louisville, and
we presume intends making quick trip.
We learn from the Louisville Courier
that new packet for the Green River trade
is'daily expected there. 1t is called the w.
"A. caves, ander charge of Capt. Baird, and
is said to be the most complete boat ever
built for that trade. She will be welcome.
- The R. II. Winslow was here yester-
day morning from Cincinnati with large
freight. She remained here, however, four
or five hours taking in produce, and left laden
to the guards.
The fast Pike was down yesterday
morning with the mail. She always passes
at an early hour, her machinery having the
singular power OF turning her wheels remark
ably fast. The clerks forgot their usual fa-
vors yesterday.

following warning to tobacco chewers:
Besides the poison contained in the
weed itself, many of our tobacco ;chew-
crs arc absorbing into their systems
an oxyd Of lead, same which
Kills so many painters, and paralyzes
others. Lead foil is cheaper than tin
foil, and some Of those who put up to-
baccn for chewing, use the latter in
stead of tho former. The eounterfait
may be known by its dark blue or blu.

white. Tobacco ckewers who do not
wish to absorb two poisons at once.
