,a5 la4 About one o'clock Saturday morn
4Iss, ing boats began to pour into our
far wharf thick and fast: First came the
-dcoi Lady Grace, loaded to the guards. en-
route to ST. Louis. In her. second
clerk we were pleased torecognize the
r-ads giant form of Lea Crane, late of the
"a s - Az " 81 III, Mo1Ic-H
late Of the Mayfower, was at her
Ia wheel IN a few moments the proud,
musical Silver Moon came dashing
into port from Memphis, and was
quickly followed by the Armada with
a very fine trip. The Moon was
pretty. light. Then came in together
the gay Ada Lyon and the famous
kB nRobE Roy. both with excellent trips
At 3 o'clock A. NJ. the great Indiana,
with a good trip of freight and peo-
pie, passed up. The new St. Louis
ferryboat, East st. Louis, arrived
soon after six, in search of coal. bat
the supply7was light. She is a beau
tiful ferryboat....."..The Kenton,
from st. Louis, passed up at 10 A. NJ,
loaded to the guards.-.".-The Tar
ascon arrived before twelve o'clock
looking as gay as a peacock.......The
Ole Sullivan left at IT o'clock for
Cloverport with a good packet trip.
.........From the officers Of the Rob
Roy we learn that the Champion
struck the same log that sunk the
Curlew at the foot of Chenault's
Reach, three miles above Rome,
about a year ago, and sunk to. her
boiler deck. She lies straight and
enFe easy, and can be readily raised when
va the water falls. She is loaded almost
exclusively with iron ore and pig
lead......The Morning Star took off
her passengers and all the freight
she could reach".-...The Tarascon
had a moderate trip....--...The Rob
Roy got an excellent trip out, inclad-
ing some fifty tons of pig iron from
Tennessee River, re-shipped by the
Sam. Orr. She had also a good pas
senger trip, among whom were the
family of Mr.. James HI. McNeeIy, of
this city, en- route to Northern Ohio
to spend the Summer. Lew. Mor-
ris is proud of his achievement on the
last trip up, but Capt. Barclay thinks
re mdON a olASul "AoOdAG u LIS 1Odb-
ment Of a gum bile.~..".The Indiana
had fair trip, and will be down about
ne- the middle of the week, and we hope
that all New Orleans freight not given
to the P. w. Strader will be reserved
for the Indiana.-....The Rob Roy
has been thoroughly repaired, and her
chimnies are as good as ever, and her
capital "R" looms up between her
ehimnies as of yore. She leaves Gin
cinnati again for this port on Wed
nesday, and all orders for goods sent
to her care will receive prompt and
careful attention.~.-".The Chatta.
nooga was receiving a fine trip for the
Wabash. One item Of the Rel
Roy's freight was 20 tens gas pipe fol
the Tennessee river.
