The New Orleans Delta Of Thursday says:
Business on the leYee was anything but brisk. The
only departure for Memphis was the Alonzo Child. with
her bonnie blue flag, and a good freight There was a
report on the levee yesterday that some steamboat cap
tain had lost bis grip at the present prices, and was en-
gaging freight at one dollar and twenty-five cents Der
barrel, and twenty i've cents per hundred pounds. We
hope this is not true, as boats at the Cd prices were
scarcely holding their own, and any fall on feirhts viii
compel most of them to lay up. The Ed J. Cav and
VIM u. Morrison had 70 lay over until this evening in
consequence of the rain. The Vieksburg. meetinr Win
an accident 10 her machinery, will not be able 10 leave
today and that the Ed J. Gay viii take the mails aud
attend to her business.
