A NEW ERA-Low PRESSURE PACKET
LoU1svILL EAND New ORLEANs.-It is with
more than ordinary qualification that we an
nounce the fact that the most magnificent
steamer that ever graced the Western or
Southern waters is now under contract for
the Louisville and New Orleans trade. She
is to be a low pressure, after the style Of the
Daniel Drew and other clippers, on the Hud-
son river. With q steam pressure on her
boilers of only 80 or 40 pounds to the square
inch, barely enough to break an egg-shell,
she will achieve speed Of fourteen or fif-
teen miles an hour against the mighty cur
rent of the Mississippi. That would bring
her to this port from New Orleans in less
than four days, but, including half a day for
the usual delays, she would make her regular
trips in four-and-a-half days. Truly, new
era has dawned upon US.
The new low pressure steamer is to be built
by Captains ]. S. and R. E. Neal, part own
ers of the famous steamer Indiana. Her ex-
IRENE length is to be about $40 feet, with so
feet beam and feet hold The engines are
low pressure, the cylinders each 70 inches in
diamter, the largest on the Western waters
The bull is to be built at the ship yard of
Vance, Armstrong & Co., on the Marine
Railway of Alex. Temple, at Madison, Ind,
under the superintendent Of Alex. Temple,
one of the best practical builders in the
West. The machinery is in the hands of the
Neal Manufacturing Co., the cabin, upper
works, outfit, &C., all complete, is to be
furnished in Louisville, and the boat is to
ply the Louisville and New Orleans trade.-
She will have the best speed Of the wind, a
