boat late on Friday night last, and there is no
room to doubt but she fell overheard and drown

spirits at that tims and at II o'clock she was
missing. The Capt, being indisposed, had re-
tired, bit his wife not appearing at this hour, =,
be got up to look for her and she was gone. 1t
appears that she was in the habit of sitting on
the rail on the main deck, in the rear Of the la
dies cabin, before retiring, and enjoying her
pipe She would sit on the rail with her feet
resting on chair. The chair was found in its
accustomed place, which left no room to doubt
her sad fate. Two persons on the boat heard
noise at about the time the accident must have
occurred. which they now suppose was occa-
stoned by her falling into the water She had
been deprived of her accustomed rest for several
nights, and while smoking. probably became
drowsy and fell from her seat. The night was
very dark and there was a rapid current in the
river. Saturday morning search was COM
menced for ths body. During Saturday and
Sunday the river below where the boat was tied
up, as far down as the eddy extends at the end
Of the dock, was dragged with hooks and
stone seine, but the body was not found. 1t

with great dexterity and exactness. The

will find cordial reception at the hands of our
citizens.
