In an article headed " Old Scraps" the Baltimore
Patriot publishes the following extracts
CINo1SSATI, May 80, 1s11.-Ship Neues.-Arived
at this place Sunday, 29th inst barge Cincinnati
Bealc, commander, from New Orleans, with cargo
from New Orleans on the Sd of March arrived at
the Falls on the 9th of May-6S days: remained at
the Falls days, and sailed from there on the 18th
inst. ~
This is the first rgged vessel that ever arrived at
Cincinnati from below She is 100 feet keel, l6 feet
beam: rugged soop fashion, and burthen 60 tons.
She was warped over the Falls by eighteen men, in
half a day..
June, lS44.-The steamboat Buffalo, of 2S5 tons
has been launched at Pittsburg. She is designed to
ply regularly between that place and Louisville once
month, and as she will draw, when all her machi-
merry is on board, but two feet six nches it is ex-
pected she will run all summer. If. however, she is
found too large, other boats less bulky will be built
and she will take station below the Falls in the line
to New Orleans a
The steamboat Enterprise, built at Bridgeport, on
designed packet between that place and the Falls
of Ohio. Her power was highly approved she was
tried against the current of the Monongahela---
usually high and rapid for the season-and made
three miles and half an hour! ,
BROWNSVILLE, May Sd, lsl5.-By letter from an
officer of the steamboat Enterprise, of this place. we
are informed that she was at Natchez on the 24th
March, having subsequent to the 14th January made
from new orleans De trips TO tne BallZe and one to
the rapids of Red river Her last trip from New Or
leans to Natchez was made in four days, distance
of BIB miles against the current of the Mississippi
without the aid of sals-her rigging having been pre-.
viously laid aside. -. -. ....f --..r--.'D
July 1.-The Enterprise worked up from New Or
leans to Bardstown, nearly 1900 miles, in twenty-five
days .5l a.
It is calculated that the voyage by steamboats, from
New Orleans to Pttsburg about twenty three hundred
miles, will be made in Mty.sir days
How do the rivers and. canals Of the Old World
dwndle oinsignfcance compared with this, and what
prospect of commerce is held out to the immense
regions of the West by the of these boats 1t is

LATER FROM BuESos AYREs.-The Ne" York Daily
Times. of the 10th inst, has received dates from
Buenos Ayrcs to the 7th Of August, from which we
copy as follows:
The Government has submitted to the Chambers
the draft of law authorizing the sale of one hundred
square leagues Of public lands situated north Of the
river Sa!ado, at the minimum price of $500 the
square league and fractions of Il league in the same
proporton-the purchase price to be paid within
three months from the day of sale. OF the proceeds
of the sale the law requires that ten per cent shall
be destined for the school fund in the locality of the
lands in question and twothrds of the remainder
the redemption of the bonds Of the loan contracted
. in London. The Government Las passed a note to
the Chambers, mpessing upon them the necessity of
making immediate provision for meeting the deficit
in the rcycnUe. The 500 900 in the bank, cores
ponding to the public funds, have already been cX-
pended, aud though the works Of the new custom
house have been reduced to the lowest scale and the
subscriptions to the railroads suspended in the ntail
time, the balance i'll hand on the 4th Of August.

Great Wing Ratification Meeting in Boston,

THE CRADLE OF LIBERTY FULL OF New ESGLAND's s
SoSs.-The Wings of Massachusetts held q great
mass meeting i'll Faneuil Hall, Boston, on the evening
of the Sth nst for the purpose of atifyng the dongs
Of the Wing National Convention at Baltimore. The
demonstration the largest and most respectable
held in Boston during the canvass and the speeches
were worthy of the occasion.
The meeting was organized by the appointment Of
J. Thomas Stevenson Esq, of Boston, President and
seventy-fve distinguished citizens from the State at
large, Vice-Presidents
The President explained the objects of the meeting.
He was followed by Hon. George Lunt, who though
aborng under severe ndisposition delivered speech
that will survive the occasion. Hon Otis P. Lord Of
Salem. succeeded Mr. iunt on the stand, and spoke
for nearly two hours The Courier says that he might
have spoken all night and still had listeners, had he
wished. for no man spoke to more approving
audience His reasons for the faith that was in him
were stated boldly and his review of the Republican
party was the ablest ever heard in that State.
After Mr.. Lord had closed his remarks, Hon George
S. IiiIlard was loudly called for and came forth ac-
cordngly but the ateness Of the hour made it ueces-
say that he should defer his remarks until some future
occasion.
The old line Wings may well be proud of this de-
onsration for nearly all the greatest ntelleets of
Massachusetts, were engaged in it.
