C.aELEssLY COMPLIED STEAMBOAT MANIFEsrs. |
FjnSng fault is at best dissgreesble business, |
but eniy will sometimes compel US to do it,. In /
jhs present instance we have to complain of the |
Eese.al Of our river steamboats,. In particular the
cefxs have got into the bad habit of late of |
reporting different articles as "pkgs;" and In |
somc instances "packages of mdse. - instead Of
DESIGNATING the proper number, kind of pscfage,
and esme Of article. Did steamboat captains and |
clerks know the Inconvenience and trouble in.
flcted by such carelessness on parties who keen
records, we feel sure they would be more careful
We trust this matter will be attended to BY those
whose duty IL Is to give correct statements 10 their
patrons as well as TO the public.
