90 the flats opposite this city, on her sso'clock
trip this morning, and remained there all
day.. to the great discomfort OF those on
board, who could not be approached from this
side Of the river, in consequence Of the inter
veni1g ice, nor from the Maryland side, because
there were no boats on that shore The Baltl-
more, Aqua Greek and Currioman boats, due
here yesterday evening, all arrived, though
considerably behind time. The steamer Ex-
press, which left. here on Saturday morning
last, for Baltimore, is reported aground in Port
Tobacco creek. The steamer Virginia, OF the

TnE WASHINGTON FERRY.-It is difficult
task to satisfy the tickle and (astidious tastes OF
the travelling public. Many have undertaken
the lib, but few have ever succeeded in accom-
plishing it. Difficult as is the undertaking, it,
however, has nevertheless, as was stated in the
Gazette day or, two since, been entered upon
by the Potomac Ferry Company, who have
contracted with Mr.. Joseph Belknap, of New
York city, for the building Of two elegant boats,
bearing the names Of the City of Alexandra
and City of Washington. The reputation of
the builder, add the care taken by the company
to contract for boats that will com bine every
needed requisite, is a sure guarantee that moth,
ing will be wanting to,secure safe, commodlous
!. and elegant boats. 1t is confidently expected
that these two steamers will take their places
on tho line between Alexandria and Washing
ton by the first Of March next; and being con
structed on the plan Of the Staten Island boats,
with fine upper saloons, and engines OF sufficient
power to propel well constructed boat through
the water at speed that will reduce the trip
between the two cities within the period OF 25
minutes, the company feel assured they will
