CINC1NNAT1, Mrch 2I-John Sherman
was elected u S. Senator this afternoon,
by the Legislature III joint convention.
ST.. LOUIS, March 2I.-In convention
yesterday, the third resolution was adopted.
The Dunbar will leave for Paducah
to-day at o'clock. As freight and pas
senger packet she is not excelled on the
river for the trade in which she runs. She is
offcered by very clever fellows, who take
great delight in making passengers enjoy
themselves.
80. This is the proper day for the little
Grey Eagle, but we do not know that she
will be down. We have not heard that her
repairs have been finished.
..'.' The new low-pressure boat, A. J.
Gotten, passed down yesterday. We were
on the lookout for the celebrated pelican
flag on which the Courier has harped so
much. 1t was not to be seen. Whether the
Captain was ashamed oft in these latrtudes,
or whether he desired a little freight at this
abolition port this deponent sayeth not.
-..... The u Aion on her way to the Wa
bash, was deserted by her crew at Hender-
son. They complained of unfair treatment
on the part of the cook. This was on We'd
nesday.
1.-THE Louisville Courier of Wednes-
day has among others the following items:
The River continues to fall rather fast
with eight feet water in the canal by the
mark, at dark last evening. On the falls
there were six feet water in the pass. Dur
ing the previous twenty-four hours it had
fallen four inches at the wharf, and twelve
inches at Portland. The weather is rather
pleasant, though freezing cold yesterday
morning.
Capt. Thomassen of the Admiral has
sold back TO Capt. Baird the half interest he
held in that boat, which is now command
ed and wholly owned by Capt. Baird.
Southern Republic is the name of q splen-
did, first class boat, now plying the Alaba-
ma rivers, below Mobile and Montgomery.
She was made in Mobile
The old High Flyer was towed over the
Falls Monday by the Pink Marble No. ,,
to be used, we understand as a boarding
house or floating hotel at the canal enlarge

thera-In the most virulent stages of this malig-
naut disease of the throat these medicines expert
enced the most successful results-while thousands
succumbed to the violence of this disorder, not a
single decease occurred among those who used these
remidies, thus presenting 90 oasis of practical
experience, mid the desert of death of speculative
theory. The Royal College of Surgeons awarded
them the palm of victory the only antdote for
