SUMNER ARRANGEMENT. the accommo-
dation OF residents OF the Coast from here to
Baton Rouge, Capt. Allen Jumel. SO long
and favorably known, has secured the fne
and fast steamer Carrie A. Thorn, leaving on
Wednesday next at 10 A. NJ, and regularly
thereafter every Saturday and Wednesday
throughout the summer. The Thorn is in
prime order, having been docked, thoroughly
repaired and painted from stem to stern and
is equal in every respect to bran new boat 1
Capt. Jumel is known by everybody, and
without doubt will meet with the success he |
deserves. Mr.. Chas. Brusle, who is to pre-
side in the Office, is thorough business man
and a most courteous gentleman. Under their
Joint administration the Thorn will meet with |
favor, we are sure.
From st. Louis papers of the 5th we learn |
that meeting of the heads of the different |
lines, running to and from st. Louis South |
ward), was to be held for the purpose of cur |
ing the ruinously low rates. AS all hands will
act together, the meeting will certainly result
in general increase of the rates Of freight,
and will go into immediate effect. Shippers,
therefore. to Memphis, Cairo and St. Louis
will, in all probability, have this their last
day to ship on at the present low rates. The
John F. Tolle, leaving to day. offers this OPP
portunity, and those who do not want to be
caught, had better ship on her to-day. See
her advertisement ir another column.
The GAINESVILLE lays at the head of Custom
ON the Mississippi and Arkansas rivers from
Vicksburg to Fort Smith. The only boat in
the trade, besides carrying freight less than
by any other route, an inducement is offered
to both buyers and shippers, which they will
assuredly appreciate. Capt. Jones is live
man, wants to keep his boat in the trade, and
will do SO if our merchants here will aid him !
to the extsnt of their freight.
The Leslie Taylor was receiving freight !
quite lively yesterday ftr points on the Qua /
chita and Black rivers.
tierce of hams belonging to the cargo of
the Mary Houston was bored yesterday noon, !
fromlbelow the wharf, and ten or twelve hams I
extracted fy those pests, the river thieves. II
the sufferers from these depredations could
only catch some Of them and mete to them
summary justice it would have very salutary /
effect.
The John F. Tolle arrived early yesterday
morning with an immense cargo, some 1000 /
packages, from St. Louis. The Tolle leaves n
at p. M. to-day, James Mellon. 81 Grayier I
street, agent !
The Mary Houston, probably the most pep
ular packet that runs to the Ohio River, &
leaves to day at P. NJ AS this is the only 5
chance travellers via Cincinnati and Louis
vile will have for four or five days, we expect

cargo and cabin full of people, is coming, =
and will be here in time to leave on Tuesday,
The 18th. 8
