cation by large boats since June, and closed with ice
without having flied, so that John Raniolphs de-
nunciation of it as a stream dry onchalf the year
" and frozen the otter half" was nearer true this
year than ever before. Meantime the down.river re-

Pittsburgh has thus nearly her whole summers pro-
duct on hand, with no chance to move it, and is now
paying exorbitant prices for provisions, which sho
usually obtains remarkably cheap. Some of hsr
Iron-nssters say they would have been ruined but
