The Adams Mail Line

Comprises three boats-the 0uachita
Belle, g. W. Cheek and Dean Adams.
The 0uachita Belle is in charge of
Captain NJ. r. Cheek, while the Office
is managed by Captain A.. L. Cum
minis. Both officers have made them.
selves popular in the trade, and to
their exertions is largely due the pop
u%larity which this line enjoys. The
Belle makes semi-weekly trips to Ar
kansas City, connecting with the new
side-wheeI steamer Dean Adams, for
Vicksburg. The Adams is a new and
fast side-wheel boat brought out dur
ing the summer. She is commanded
by Captain Matt Williams, who built
up that trade, and is very popular
with the merchants and shippers
along the line. The G. w. Cheek, at
present running in place OF the 0uach-
ita Belle, will be withdrawn in a few
days to give place to the latter boat,
and the Cheek will be placed in the
Memphis and Terene trade as soon as
business improves. This line has
been very successful during the past
season.

Although Warren county is the
stronghold Of the Wilson party, / find
here a noble little band Of patriots
who are determined to make a stub
born fight for state credit and state
pride. In an interview with Colonel
John Savage last night, he said four
iiths OF the voters Of Warren county
would cast their ballots for Wilson.
Subsequent interviews with promi-
nent state credit men confirms this
statement-looking at the matter from
the present standpoint. The state
credit faction, however, are hopeful Of
turning the tide, by means Of an active
and persistent campaign, SO far in
favor of Wright that the estimated
low tax majority will be reduced one
third. How this is to be accom-
plished with Savage and the New Era
leading the opposition remains to be
seen.
l lind a strong determination on the
part OF the state credit men here, in
the event that Wilson looms up as
the probable successful candidate, to
bolt the party and cast their strength
for Hawkins. l find that the same
spirit prevails to some extent among
the state-credit democrats at Tulla.
homa and Manchester. The former
place has a voting population Of 100,
Of which, Colonel Savage says, Judge
Wright will get 100, and the rest will
be dividedbetween Wilson and Hawk
ms. The democrats OF Manchester,
from all that can be learned, are
about equally divided between Wright
and Wilson, with the Guardian news
paper) vigorously supporting state
credit.
10 sum up you may put Warren
county down largely for Wilson, and
Coffee cOunty-not so large.

General Trade.

The value Of cornmeal, feed and
other commodities appears to be
slightly demoralized and unsettled, all
owing to a light demand in a whole
sale way and the expected arrival Of
several barges in tow of the Beaver,
now five days out for st. Louis and
destined for here. 1t is understood
that this barge includes 5000 barrels
of meal, all sold, to arrive also sew
eral thousand sacks of bran and oats,
with some hay, -four and, perhaps,
other articles. The improved condi-
ton in the Ohio is a source of some
qualification, though, at present, but
little produce is coming from that d.
rection. The river, from st. Louis to
Cairo, continues troublesome and is
down TO six feet. while mpny cross.

detention to steamers.
