STEAMBOAT SUNK.-On Monday tho steam
er Bridgeport, Capt. Holiday, left this point
Tor st, Louis with a full cargo, and when
about ten miles below here, crossing
over from Dodges' Point" struck what is
supposed to be q snag, which smashed in her
hull badly. She made all haste for the Iowa
shore, but before landing sunk crosswise the
stream, and now lies there with about ten
inches of water over her lower deck. Capt.
Holiday is one of the Oldest pilots on the
river, aud, though he knew the channel per-
feotly, had no suspicion of any obstacle where
the boat struck. But the water is very low,
and it is said thai the Canada ''.humped" in
the same place few day since. This is un
fortunate for the owners as it will keep then
from doing large amount of very remunera
tive freighting.
