Movement Of Boats.
Business at the landing and elevator
was quite active yesterday, and al
though but little was done generally in
mercantile circles the amount of
freight shipped on the four local packets
to go down the river was fully up to that
sent on the corresponding day last week.
Notwithstanding that the election en-
crossed the attention of nearly all
classes, the White, Cleburne, Little
Rock and st. Francis had fair trips out,
and the I. ii. Allen deferred her de-
parture for White river until to-day,
when she goes with John Edison in
command, and our good looking young
friend Ned Outlaw at the desk. The H.
S. Turner came up in the morning from
New Orleans, and after putting out q
up with a cargo of Havana
sugar. The Joe Kinney, from Vicks-
burg, went up at daylight, putting ont
one hundred and thirty-One bales cotton
and one hundred and eight sacks seed
here. The Dardanelle, from the Arkan-
sas, brought ninety bales cotton and put
out one hundred and n~inety-five bales at
the mouth of White river for New Or
leans. The St. Joseph came down before
noon, drawing five feet, and had three
hundred tons produce, which she was
discharging at the elevator at dark. The
Belle Memphis, with four hundred tons,
arrived after dinner from st. Louis, and
had not commenced ~diseharging when
our reporter visited the elevator at dark.
She also had acabin well filed with peO-
pie. The LaBelle arrived from New Or
leans during the afternoon with a light
cargo, making the trip in four days, and
returns at noon to-day with cotton and
oi-cake. The Katie will probably be
here at noon to go back tomorrow.
