The following from the St ouis RepuJi.a
is rather cugh on steamboat commanders
but with us the faux lies with shippers an
not with tie boats. InduceG ents are he,
out, freight promised at certain; time, an
as sensible men, orr captains advertise t.
leave on gi7en date When tx time arrive
they ere told that NJ. Jones, trcm Jonesvjlle
or Brown, from Snil htown, have not quit
filled their orders, and they are re- ueated to Ia
over and oblEe Jones nd Bro WI. We dom
say that this is the case in all cases, but tina
1t is II many we can vCuch.
The system OF advertising a boat to leav
this day, for two or three days before she
does leave, was well taken Off by an oil,
river captain a few daya ago. A passenger

OF a steamboatman if Your boat will leave to-
DAY ~ on NY honor as steamt oatman
SIR, sad the old &alt jshe will leave posi-
tlVely tins evening; but upon the honor of d
gentleman we Will not get eff il fou. or five

For months past the residents of tie Fourth
and Sixth Districts have been greatly incon-
venienced by the withdrawal OF tie steam
ferry boat that used to ply between the head
of Louisiana avenue and Hargeys canal on
the opposite shore. True, the bolt used
was a miserable affair, and her trips made
more to accommodate the brick yards above
Gretna than anything else, yet to many it was
almost II dispensable, especially TO those dis
ciples OF Ike Walton who make Bayou Is IRA
TARA their stamping ground (maybe we should
say waterl and pleasure seekers, who on
Sunday evenings, especially, used to delight
to take a ride over the river and ramble
through the cane and clover fields around
Harveys and lIlllaudon's, seeking few
hours recreation from the dust and heat OF
the city.
We are pleased to be able to inform all who
have put up with this with patience that they
now have 10 cause to mourn, as MIR. A. Y.

Little Minnie ION the route, and will, from

will make liberal arrangements with picnic
parties and excursionists.

Chas. Delmar, German, aged about forty |

Hall Point. Every possible eXe-tion was
made to save him, but without effect. The
deceased was employed as deck hand on the
