The New white River Packet, Hard
Cash. -..
RIVER EDITOR APPEAL-I am now
building, at Pittsburg, the steamer Hard
Cash, stern-wheel boat, expressly for
the Memphis and White river trade.
She will probably be the most perfect
combination of speed, durability, light
ness of drsught, and carrying capacity
that was ever on White river. The
steamer Hard Cash will leave Memphis
on or about the second Tuesday in Sep
TENDER next, and will continue in the
trade as regular Tuesday packet during
the entire season. With many thanks
for past favors l remain, yours truly,
