7. A. Nelson, ESQ., President or the MsmPni1
Chamber OF Commerce;
Your committee appointed to collect
supplies for the destitute and suffering
on Inc Mississippi river and its tributa-
ries. beg leave 70 report that the most
feasible mode Of a~scertaining parties
who are in need, is through the ofheers
OF the various steamboats, that are plying
in our different packet trades. we cob
versed with a number of the captains
and officers of the steamers plying be-
tween our city and various ports below,
/ and they are willing TO convey pro-
visions free Of charge. They nave
the best opportunity OF ascertain
ing who is in want OF food OF
| clothing. We hope that our commu-
uity will hold themselves ready TO coy
tribute. as we have no doubt u Whas
there will be ample opportunity OF
ing our iberality to our suffering people.

| ised the committee that all cases OF
suffering that could be ascertaiDed
uTould he reported. The condition OF the
! river il such it would be impossible for a
boat TO reach those who are in need, and
the ONLY plan that can be adopted Is the
one we speak of.
Your committee conferred with the
mavor. and he informs US that he had
made no positive engagement with the
steamer Northwest, which requires pay
inc her officers, unless the boat hould

purpose, except that the boat can De
