The J, P.Webb left about noon, with
a. very fair trip, The case Of
the Webb, which was detained at
Cincinnati last week on account
of some .irregularity in her papers,
has been laid before the Secretary of
the Treasury, and we. have not the
slightest doubt that her officers will
be exhonorated fromrany blame. She
was regularly ipspectedand passed by
Coli Guthrie, Supervising Inspector,
who having no blank certificates Of
inspection, gave her a written permit
to proceed to Cincinnati and return.
! Col. Guthrie's permit was wholly
disregarded, by the Cincinnati Off
Gals, who were, hungry for a fee,
and the boat was detained, and Capt.
Lancaster was compelled to bond her
llout, after iucurring heavy expense.
Such monstreus injustice will not GER
tainly be sustained by the Sccretaryof
hthel Treasury:....The Ollie Sullivan
