Who BUILT THE FIRST FREIGHT BoAT.-We
believe the credit belongs to our fellow citizen,
Capt. VIM. Dean, for the following reasons: Capt.
was exclusively a freight boat, carrying no pas
sengers. She was afterwards sold to Capt. Robt.
Greenlee, who after running her awhile sold her
to Cspts. j. G. and f. x Reno. She was very
successful and made lots Of money for all her
owners. In 1850 Capt. Dean built the Navigator
another freight boat. She was very successful
He alec sold this boat to Capt. J. G. Reno, who
made lots Of money with her. The next freight
boat Capt. Dean built was the Clara Dean, in
1858. This boat proved great success, and,
what is most singular, Capt Dean sold the Clara
Dean to John q. Reno, who, after running her
awhile, sold her to Capt. s. Cadman. Now, if
there were any exclusive freight boats built be-
fore this we are not aware OF the fact. Capt.
Dean is still hale and hearty, and is one Of our
best citizens.-Pittsburg Commercial.
