MEMPHIS. November 2, 1872.
To the Merchants and Planters Of the White
River Valley:
Owing 10 extreme low water in White river,
and not having suitable boats, we withdraw
for the present from the trade. Of course we
would not do this If there were not plenty Of
light-draught boats already in the river TO do
the business. This being the case, we feel that
we are not justified in chartering boats and
running them at loss. Our side-wheel boats
will resume their regular trips on the first rise
in White river. In the meantime we will en-
deavor to have the United States mail deliv-
cred promptly by the light-draught boats.

TIE KATIE SUNK.-We learn by tel
egram to Capt. Dick Lightburne that the
steamer Katie, which left here last night
with 433 bales of cotton and $50 passen-
gers, struck the old wreck of the Lucy
Holcombe about two o'clock this morn
ing, staving in her hull and causing her
to fill with water and sink. That is the
substance of the telegram, which also
requests that the wrecker I. F. Eokhert
will be sent for at once; Capt. Light
burne is at this hour trying to secure
the Oil City to go down. The John
Kyle, now here, will also go down at
once and take her passengers and
freight.
The officers Of he Capitol City, down
last evening, report that on Wednesday
morning an accident occurred to the
John Kyle at Point Pleasant that re.
suited in the loss of 40 feet Of her lar.
board guard, and two head of horses
in the following manner: The
d. G. Yaeger was hard aground at
the point named, head up stream, and
in coming down the Kyle grounded
within thirty feet of the Yaegar, and
with her bow about amidships of the
Yaeger. The Kyle then set her spar to
shove of, and commenced backing until
her stern swung around and struck the
faegar terrible blow, and then sud-
denly releasing her bow from the bar,
she moved backwards, tearing away the
lsrboard guard and sweeping the stock
thereon, previously mentioned, into
the river. The Yaeger's injur-
les we're slight, but she was driven
further on the sand by the force of the
blow, and when the Capitol City passed,
the Kyle had gone to the bank to save
what stock swan ashore and repair her
guard. Having received no further in
juries, the Kyle will probably be down
to-day.
IiATER-The Kyle went down this
morning to the relief OF the Katie, as
mentioned elsewhere.

WASHING MADE EASY.

Last night, at the south end of the
hall, Mr.. Prescott cut up an immense
cake of soap into bars, and distributed
the same among the multitude. The
firm Of o. F. Prescott & Co., No. 80
Union street, are the Oldest soap manu-.
facturers in the Southwest. Their brand
Of German soap is superior article,
and is so recognized by all housekeep-
ers. 1t was amusing to witness the de-
mand for soap last night; at least two
thousand bars were given away by the
enterprisiug manufacturers. For a
week, at least, Memphis and the sur
rounding country will be represented by
clean faces and clothes. The fame of
Prescott & Co. has gone abroad. Their
motto, washing made easy" is most
appropriate. 1t tells the entire tale.
Visitors to the Exposition should call at
80 Union street, where they will find a
large stock of lamps, coal oil, chande-
liers, shades, chimneys, tinware, and
Japanned ware, etc.-in fact, every ar
ticle known to the lamp trade.
