1900 The Weather, yesterday, was cool
and pleasant. A genial rain on Sunday
night with heavy rains along the line of the
Ohio and Mississippi road yesterday, cooled
the atmosphere to pleasant temperature,
and rendered the transaction of business on
the landing, quite agreeable. Business,
consequent upon the rise in the River, was
quite animated. Several Wabash and Green
river packets were in port discharging and
receiving freight, and the Republic and
PeytonG were also completing their loads
for New Orleans.
.'.'''There was considerable freight on
the landing yesterday morning, but the Re-
public and Peytond, two huge steamers,
thinned it out to a great extent. We did not
learn that the rates had materially de-
clined.
1.-The Kate French departed yesterday
forenoon with a very light trip.
----.. The Dunbar left at noon, also
light. 1.-THE GreenUiue went out in the af-
ternoon with small ...'..The Lac
EaUes left for Pond river.
1.-THE John Tompkins brought fine
load out of the Wabash. Her clerk, Mr..
OBryan, will accept our thanks for mani
fest.
1000 barrels of pork brought by the Tomp-
kins were re-shipped on the Republic.
...... The feet and popular Charley Boso-
en- is the regular packet at noon this day.
Capt. Dexter, who has an eye to the interest
of our city as well as his own, should meet
with the hearty cooperation of our business
men, and he should never be permitted to
withdraw his boat from the trade for lack
of support. The Charley is a popular little
packet, and is Differed by as clever fellows
as ever shipped on board of boat. We
trust the Charley will be favored with full
load of passengers and freight.
$500 The Kate Sarehet presented her IA
miliar countenance yesterday morning. Her
cargo was not so extensive as usual. The
Peytona took a portion of her freight.
1.-THE MeLeLtan passed up Sunday
morning. About two miles below our city.
she ran foul of snag, which rendered her
almost an entire wreck. Her guards were
torn up, and chimneys knocked down. For
tunately, no person was seriously injured.
......It is not definitely settled-we are
told-whether the GREY Eagle will continue
in the New Orleans trade or once more enter
the Henderson and Louisville trade.
By a private letter from Capt Hall,
we learn that several radical improvements
have been made on the SiIper Star. Her
chimneys have been heightened and en-
larged !; Il texas of sufficient capacity to ac-
commodate all of the officers and crew, has
been built; her wheel has been enlarged !;
and the entire boat repaired outside and
inside. Capt. Hall informs US that she
will be at the landing Thursday morning,
and will depart on the same day.
1.-THE Lue EdUes was detained some
time, yesterday, by the wind, but finally
got off.
1.-The Republic arrived yesterday. She
re-shipped her freight on the Grey Eagle
and commenced loading for New Orleans.
'..."Capt. Lancaster informs us that he
intends placing an additional boiler in the
Gen. ID. II. White, and one more engine.
Additions will be made to her cabin, and
after she is made very nearly a new boat he
intends running her in the Henderson and
Newburg trade, making one trip a day.
