The advertisement of the James W.
sGaf appears in to-day's issue. Dur
ing the low water season, while she
was compelled to lay up, the mechan-
les took her in hands. Her machinery
has been thoroughly overhauled she
has been reprinted inside and out, and
is in every way as good as the day she
was built. All the old crew is on
board, with the exception ofClerk w.
H.. Chopper, whose place is filed by
Mr.. james Surtees, late Of the Virgie
Lee. The Gaf is to leave here Friday
evening with a return trip for Cincin-
natl.
The name Of Capt. James Lee, SUI
perintendent of the Lee Line Of mail
packets, having been suggested as one
Of the five members of the Board Of
Public Works to be elected on the 9th
of January next, it is proper that
river men should urge and insist that
he allow his name to be used in the
coming election. He is by far one of
the best men hal could be selected as
he will not only keep au eye to the in
%terests Of commerce, but will see that
the business interests Of the whole
city are looked after, and that monop.
olies run her not in debt.
The new towboat Henry Lourey,
built by Hambleton, Of Mound City,
has proved a success. On her first
trip she made the following time: St..
Louis to Cairo, IS hours; Cairo to
Memphis, "a hours; Memphis to
Vicksburg, 80 hours; Vicksburg to
New Orleans, "a hours. She ran from
Bayou Goula, a distance of 800 miles,
in q hours. The boat will, when
everything is smooth and working per-
fectly, take three of the largest barges
loaded to their full capacity with a
fuel barge on a good stage Of water
make the run from st. Louis to New
Orleans in 4 days.
