Small notes and small change con-
tinue very scarce, indeed; this is made
particularly so by the non-connection Of
the incoming express trains this morn
ing bearing the regular currency pack
ages for the several banks. While ths
heavy country orders-incident to this
season Of the year-have greatly reduced
the amount Of currency on hand, tSe
prospect of an early return Of the pres
ent outflow causes a healthy feeling to
prevail in financial circles. Our banks
generally, however, are pursuing a safe
policy and keep themselves in a good po-
sition. Short time paper is taken in
moderate amounts at s to 10 per cent.
Exchange quotations remain unchanged.

Captain John Peters, secretary

ceived a telegram last evening from
Captain ]. j. Darragh stating that
he would leave Cairo to day for
Memphis with the Illinois and
would arrive here Monday morning

Captain Darragh spent nearly $4,000
in repairing her and has put her in
splendid order, being reprinted in

the appearance of a new steamer.
The untimely accident to the
Belle of Texas will be a severe loss
to Captain Milt Harry in his bust

She will be Immediately repaired
and new guards put around
her. AS soon as her repairs are

Of the interests of the patrons Of
the Cheek, as well as the steamer
he represents, while his assistants,
Platt Rhodes and Thomas Huse,
are untiring in their efforts to
please and accommodate all. Capt.
Tom Caldwell, who has charge of
the lower deck, is also an acquisi.
ton to the boat, while Mr.. Ike
Leonard, her celebrated caterer, is
making her popular with those fond
of good living. The Avalanche,
in referring to this vessel, says
"She is doing an improving bust
ness, both in freight carrying and
passengers. This encouraging fea-
ture is extremely gratifying to her
owners and shows that the people
along the river below appreciate
their efforts to keep SO excellent a
packet on the line for their mutual
accommodation and interest"
