an arrangement made with the parties
to carry it during the low water She
has carried it regularly since that
time, and will continue to DO so dur,
ing the low water, and uutl the Cum
berland's owners want their days
again. I have the best, the newest
aud the fastest boat now in the line,
built at Evansville aud owned at
Evansville, and ! am LOH asking
only fair share Of Evansville pat
r0nage.
How IS it with Captain Dexter's
chartered boats? He is making
regular war upon my boat Not gat-
isfed with his own two days week.
he now tries, by doubling his trips,
or 0y turning back at any point he
pleases, to have the Phantom always
at the wharf to 60 out in opposition
to the Clara Scott. This Is no benefit
to the public, and no accommodation
to any one, and is exceedingly dan
gerOus to the lives of passengers who
travel on the Phantom Il charged
that the Clara belongs in Wabash,
and has no business nthIs mail trade.
l would ask IT she has not as much
right here as the other light
boats chartered by Captain Dexter
out of the Cumberland and Tenues-
see Rivers. She certainly has; and
although Capt. Dexter has magnani-
mously offered to allow seme other
boats to run on the lower Ohio on
condition that they would pay him
500 per week, and give him the mail
pay, l am not willing to concede that
the river belongs to him and that be
has right to hire the river out to
whom he pleases. The mail must be
carried on small boats while the river
is too low for the regular mail boats
that are now laid up at the bone yard
and / ask nothing but wha Is mine
and | run no opposition TO anybody

for the first bale Of new cotton sold
on the market, and raised in the Ten
ness River Valler Of course, Evans
Vile does not It TO compete
with any markeo south of ,his
for the ,6rst bale, but it does
US good, however, to Anow that
we get the first bale from the Ten
nessee Valley, and as this is the en-
tering wedge Of a new branch OF bust
ness to Messrs. Martin. Gardner &
Co., we hope they hope they viii be
fully successful in it as they have
been during the past season with their
tobacco trade, their sales OF tobacco
for the current year ending. having
been 2,951 hogsheads, for which we
know they feel grateful, not only to
the producers, but to the generous
eForts Of the most liberal Board Of
Tobacco Buyers in the West, and
hope by the same means to make
our cotton market equal to what
our tobacco market now is. 1. e.,
second to none in the West.
We can and we ought, from our geo
graphical position, and with our lacil-
tiles Tor receiving and delivering
goods, to make Evansville as a mar
ket inferior to none this side Of the
seaboard. Our merchants are not
only liberal, but they offer extra in
ducements to the buyer as we'll as the
producer, selling him their goods as
low as can be bought in other mar
kets, aud paying him as good prices
as he can realize elsewhere; and, as
most of our merchants are members
of the Tobacco and Cotton Boards,
they will readily give as full prices
for cotton as any other Western city.
They are using cotton and tobacco as
a medium of exchange between this
and the ports Of New York and
New Orleans. We know that
the producers Of all descriptions
will eventually learn that the nearest
market is the best, and that quick
sales with prompt returns are much
better than the slight advances of the
seaboards, waiting Indefinitely for the
accounts of sales and proceeds.

THE HEBREW FAIR.-The net pro-
oeeds Of the Hebrew Fair, recently
held in National Hall, footed up
little over $4,000. The managers ten
der their most hearty thanks to the
whole community for their liberal
patronage, and their especial thanks
to the beautiful gypsy girls for their
active and effective cooperation, and
also to Mrs. Hiram E. Read, who did
much to secure the success of the en-
terprise, and whose name was mad
vertantly omitted in a previous report
of the fair. The people Of Evansville
are proverbial for their liberal pat
ronsge ofChurch Fairs and Festivals.
