bar has formed at the foot of the incline of
the Mississippi Central Railroad, and until it is
removed freight cars can't be transferred. A |
Cairo correspondent of the Commercial says
The bar that has formed at the foot Of the |
incline at the terminus of the Mississippi Central
Railroad is proving serious matter to the road.
The transfer boat McComb can not get to the |
incline now with freight cars, and has to use
barge to carry the passenger cars on. Freight. |
therefore, goes by the river as Of old, and the |
daily accumulation on the wharf boats since the |
bar formed shows very plainly what steamboats, |
have been missing, and one OF the causes OF dull |
times in marine circles"
The Thompson Dean left Memphis with 100 |
passengers, 700 bales cotton and 1000 sacks oil |
cake. She will arrive to leave here on Friday |

an exchange asks:
"What has become Of the propeller Shsrrock,
building some time ago for the Mississippi Steam
Iron Barge Company? Charles johnson, of New
Orleans, the inventor of the propeller, asserted
that the plates we're all completed in England,
and about to be shipped to New Orleans, one
year ago or two. This propeller was to be 800
feet long and hold IA feet. Inasmuch as this was
to be st. Louis and New Orleans trader, some
people here desire information about her."
Who can answer?
The claim of the Illinois against the Mary Mil
Ter has been compromised. The Illinois receives
$500.
The Nellie Peck is above Little Rock waiting
for water to get out.
The Katie P. Kountz left Little Rock Wednes-
dav with 800 bales
