EDrToRs JOURNAL Wabash River falling
slowly, with four feet on Nine Mile. The
Union is aground at Belle Grade.
1.-The following items we find in the
Louisville Courier of the 28th:
The River continues falling quite rapid
", with only eight feet water in the canal
last evening by the mark. On the falls
there were six feet in the pass, or Ky. chute,
decline of two feet in the previous forty
eight hours at the wharf, and some six feet
at Portland The weather has turned quite
cold, and freezing hard, with the wind in
the west.
1.-THE w. II. Langley was sold at
Memphis, Thursday, by order of the clerk
of the Common Law Court, to Captain
Hughey, for the sum of 50, 1916.
..The Wabash retains a very respecta-
bic stage OF water, for navigation 10y light
craft. One or two boats have lately visited
our landing, and we notice by the Evans
vile Journal the departure Of others from
that port, with full cargoes of groceries
for the Wabash Wabash Express.
SUsPENDED.-The local inspectors of Gin
cinnati have suspended tue license of John
W. wilkins, pilot of the Prairie Rose, for
six months, for causing a collision between
IF Ia nd riA at
Sugar Greek on the 4th inst.
-...At Pittsburgh, Thursday, Captain
Shepherds new side-wheel Lexington made
trial trip. The Economy was loading for
Cincinnati, Mary Cook for Nashville, and J.
W. Mailman for Nashville.
SUNNY SIDE sunk AND RAISED AGAIN
DAMAGE LIGHT.-Saturday evening the
Sunny Side Capt Frank Maratta, on her
way to New Orleans from upper ports, while
descending the falls, struck on the right
hand reef in the pass which knocked three
holes in her bottom, causing her to sink at
the New Albany wharf in seven or eight
feet water. The Captain with his crew
went vigorously to work, and by 4 o'clock
yesterday, Sunday morning, they had her
ahOat again, all safe, with most of her
freight on shore or transferred to the ferry
Excelsior, which had been sent to her assist
ance. The holes in her hull were along
the starboard knucke, forward of the boil
ers, and fore and aft bulkhead had to be
built from the matches to the after EMO of
the boilers. A marine pump, of Mr..
Hooper's at New Albany, was used in
pumping the boat out.
The cargo of the Sunny Side consisted in
part of 600 barrels -four taken on board
at Lawrenceburgh, and a lot of pork from
Cincinnati, all of which was insured in
Cincinnati. The damage will be light The
boat, last evening, came mp through the
canal and will, we believe, be hauled out
on the ways at Madison.
