The barge Excel, towed by the steamer
Ceres, brought down from the upper Sacra-

Captain Page, with the barge Mammoth,
| brought down over 1900 sacks, the total

some other barge has brought down over

bring as big a load as any of them, doubt
less, but it is not often that barge can Sc
cure just the right sized lots of grain to
make her load equal to her capacity, and
then there is the shoal river to be consid-
cred.
