BOAT BUILDING.

The new ferry boat Aid, built by Mr.. j. S.
Hoo, for the GRANVILLE ferry on the Wabash,
Is nearly completed, and will leave next
week, to enter upon her regular service
She is built upon peculiar model with her
wheel working in the centre of the hull,
where it Is protected from ice and drift, and
by its position, enables the boat to make
vary short and rapid turns. The boat is con-
s.ructed in very thorough and neat man
ner, and the work does great credit to Mr..
HUGO. Messrs. KRATz 81 HErLMAN furnish
the engine, which Ii equal to any of the
KIND and size that cal be procured else
where. The Aid has cost the owner about
Is ,50osnd is said to be a cheap craft at that
cost. This is the second boat Of the kind
that Mr.. HUeo has constructed this season,
both of which have given great satisfaction
TO the owners. Mr.. HUoo is ready for an
other job of the same kind, or would under
take the construction Of larger boat if he
had chance. The Aid will take freight to
GRANVILLE and intermediate points, and our
shippers ought to load her down as bounty
to the owner for patronizing Evansville me-
'chanics,
The steamer Grecnvillc building by Mr..
TnLsoS for the Green ISver trade, will be
launched in about q week. Her engines built
by KRATz & HEILxAS are ready 20 put up,
aud she will be completed in three or four
weeks. She is light ternwheeler, and will
not draw more than twelve inches light, and
will carry loaded about us tons Of freight.
Her cost when completes will be sbout 81 900.
The building Of the above boats will have
distributed about sll,o 900 during the fall
among our mechanics. and done some little
service in relieving the hard times among
workmen. This makes good beginning ~
boat building among us. The large saw mil
connected with Mr.. TLLsoN's yard will be
In operation in few weeks, which will afford
greater facilities for the business.

CANAL.

We learn from Capt. Lutz that the
canal has broke in several places, five Of
which he supposes have been by this time
repaired. The break one mile above Millers-
burg is forty or fifty feet long. The woods
in that vicinity are completely filed with
water, and Pigeon Creek is so much swollen
that the water is flowing back into the canal.
There is also another break above Kings
Store, and neither Of them can be repaired
until the Creek falls. rhe bridge at Morris's
Lock (the third lock from Evansville) Is
washed away, and Capt. Lutz had to swim
his horses across tho Creek to get them
home. -rr. frT

sistance made by the occupants of the claims
of Col. Fremont to his Mariposa Grant he
was received on his recent visit to 1t, with a
hearty welcome by the inhabitants, who
yielded rea"y obedience to the law. There
are upwards of $4,000 settlers Upon the grant,
and the town Of Mariposa has population
Of 5000. Though the people had SO loudly
threatened resistance to the enforcement. OF

that they yielded Mt once to its ministers,
