The New R. E. Lee.
New Orleans Picayune, Aug.

New Orleans Picayune, Aug.5.l
The new steamer Robt. L. Lee
received a royal welcome yester-
day evening on her arrival at the
wharf. She presented a magnif-
cent appearance as she came down
the river escorted by two tugboats,
the Charles W. Wood and n. NJ.
Jones. As she glided gracefully
up to her wharf she was greeted
with the cheers of not less than
five thousand people and was sa-
luted with the thunder of cannon
under the charge of the Battalion
Washington Artillery.
The ting boats in the river and
the steamers along the levee joined
in the welcome by displaying flags
and by prolonged whistling. Hard
ly had the beautiful boat been
moored to the landing before the
people crowded on board of her,
eager to inspect her elegant cabin
and staterooms. For nearly two
hours the throng was 80 great
that it WAS almost impossible to
g& on board or off of the boat.
The Lee is, indeed, fitted up in a
manner well worthy of her name
and reputation. Not only are her
carpets, mirrors, chairs, etc, of the
finest manufacture. but her china,
glassware and crockery, furnished
by Navra & Offner, of this city,
are of the finest order. This is
the first instance that a frst-class
steamer has been furnished with
her china, and crockery outfit in
this city.
The steamer and everything
about her show that no expense
has been spared to make her the
finest boat on the liver. Her trip
down the river was a perfect ova-
ton. At all Of the principal towns
great crowds gathered to meet
her, and she was greeted with the
firing Of artillel y and other demon
STATIONS of pleasure. From Car
rollton down to Canal street the
levee was lined with people, all
anxious to show their admiration
for the Robert E. Lee. She YVES
brought into port by Captain John
Cannon, her owner. She brought
with Der, conspicuously displayed
between her chimneys, the first
bale of cotton picked in the Valley
States in 1876.
