In old steamboatm IN. thoroughly conversar
h the subject, speaking Of the last mail lin
the Lower MISSISSIPPI, yesterday, gave ui
Rnee to the following: In reference t. til
er mail service 1t Is perfect folly for sen
e men to talk of making four day trips be-
zen st. Louis and New orleans. In the frs
be. II you will take the time to Hgur
out you will find that If a wheel
In diame'er was placed on soil
bstanca and rolled over 1t at u
b of twenty revolutions per minute II woul
Verse but small fraction over twenty mi 8
hour. Now. place a wheel Of the same siz
water, give it the same velocity, and the Dis
&c travelled will be diminished at least one
1. Say there are only 240 mail landings
Ike between st. Louis and New Orleans. H. WI
uire an average OF twenty minutes to make
ding under the most favorable eircun
hoes from this 1t will be seen that the lane
alone would require eighty hours OF tim
ny one way. How would 1t do 70 send Nv
Us at he same time. one to run through an
other to make the landings
