s Tuesday Morning Januars {, lst2.EsS
The weather yesterday in its pleasant character
atoned in some degree for its misdemeanor of the
previous fort. eight hours. The atmosphere was
scool, with q clear blue sky.
Business on the levee was enlivened BY this pro.
pitious condition of the weather and fair degree
Of activity was exhibited. Since our last Issue the
Magenta and Alonzo Child have both arrived from
Memphis! they leave on their return trips to-day.
The Alonzo Child will get OF at an early hour, and
we would advise shippers to hurry down, their
freight. The Prince Of Wales, having received a
full trip, left for Memphis yesterday. The Clara
DolseD, being unable to get her freight on board,
could not leave; she leaves this evening for Column
bus and way landings. The Ed, j. Gay and Ma
tonal will be found at the landing receiving. The
Robert Fulton, from Red river, we learn, passed
Baton Rouge yesterday; she will be receiving this
morning, and leaves this evening on her return
trip.
The Memphis Appeal of thet5th says:
There was very little change ia the condition of
the river yesterday. Business on the landing was
very dull. The weather was dark and rainy.
