From the Globe-Democrat OF the 18th:
| "MovING GRAIN THROUGH THE JETTIEs.-To-
day the steamer Leopard will leave for New Or
leans with the largest single tow Of grain that
ever left st. Louis, embracing $4,000 bushels
bulk corn and 10000 bushels oats in
sacks, shippedg by Messrs. Mccormack, Adams
& Arlington, to be reshipped to Liverpool.
These gentlemen intimate that when the jetties
have channeled the river to the desired depth tor
\ ooSk ho fhnv uill ho Oh tn
| furnish cargo or two for Europe every week. As
soon as Capt. Eads's work is thoroughly consum-
mated, not only st. Louis merchants, but ship
pers throughout the length and breadth OF the
valley will have learned how cheaply and expe-
ditiously they can get their grain to Liverpool
| or the continent through this improved outlet
The rate of freight on this grain was not made
public, but understood to be bed-rOck-in fact,
| low enough to meet the views Of those inte-
rested, and induce shipments by way of this
route.
The Thompson Dean, from Memphis and the
bends, is due to arrive and will return on Fri.
The Memphis Avalanche Gays:
"Every steamer passing here going South, or
leaving port in the local trades, carries away
| from q dozen to ten times as many mules for
plantation work in the valleys. The tillers of
the soil are everywhere fixing for another huge
crop. Price or no price, there is going to be an
| immense area planted in cotton, corn and other
Southern productions, but especially cotton"
| Capt. John N. Skunk has purchased an interest
in the Mary Miller, and will take command of
| her.
Capt Fred Ford and NJ. X. Rodgers have been
| appointed United States Inspectors, with head
quarters at Gallipo'is.
Paul Boyton made the trip from Jeffersonville

to Cincinnati on the 17th, that the Ashland would
leave there in the evening with 500 bales cotton
I and $500 bags wheat, and adds that he will

ceives on the lower part OF tbs river
The Iron Mountain and bargea, loading at
