held until the opening of the next
term, GU the first Monday of April.

STEAM FERRY.-The lessees of the
river ferry at this place have accom-
plished long mooted enterprise By
the purchase of steam ferry boat,
which arrived here Thursday noon
from New Orleans. The boat is Il
propeller, of the class designated as
"tugs," As feet long and about 9 feet
wide, built for ferriage purposes and
having facilities for seating twenty
five or thirty persons, with standing
room for nearly as many more. She
bears the name of Little Minnie, runs
well, making 8 or 10 miles upstream,
has machinery of the most approved
pattern, which recently stood the test
of a thorough inspection by the off
Gals charged with that duty, aud is
in all respects "a staunch, seaworthy
aud trim little craft. The owners are
giving her thorough overhauling
and Il pretty coat of white paint, in
which new dress she will make de-
but tomorrow. The boat will not
run daily, however, but will be used
only on Sundays until further notice

Mr.. Apologize, an inspecting engi-
neer from New Orleans, came up to
Donaldsonvillle last Sunday to obtain
particulars of the explosion of the
steamboat Dot. He received all the
information desired from residents of
this town, and hence did not find it
necessary to visit the scene of the
accident. From Mr.. Apologize we
learn that the boiler and machinery
of the Dot had never been inspected
as the law requires, and circumstances
occurring just after the building of
the boat warrant the conclusion that
her owners did not make application
for such inspection because they be-
lieved certificate of the soundness
of the machinery could not be pro-
cured. One of these parties, Mr.. j. (.
Smith, was guilty of misrepresenta-
ton concerning the matter. He per-
sonally assured us that the inspection
had been made aud certificate given !;
while we have since learned that he
told other parties that the inspecting
engineers informed him no examina-
ton was required in cases where the
value of the vessel was less than $1,000.
1t is useless for us to indulge in any
dissertation upon the criminal failure
to submit the Inflated Dot to the
proper officers for examination; the
violation of law has produced its own
terrible lesson i'll the catastrophe which
hurled six human souls into eternity
without moments warning.

New York and Eastern demand, buying
at par and selling at ic premium; New
Orleans buying at 4c discount and selling
at par. Street rates fer money are no
q per cent. per month. The local stock
