!. The local packets all brought in fair trips
yesterday.
The City of Providence, en- route from st.
Louis to Natchez, passed here yesterday with
big trip
President CLEVELAND has signed the bill
appropratiug 100000 for marine hospital
at Evansville, Ind.
THE Oakland, from New Orleans, with a
tow OF model barges, passed here yesterday
morning on her way to ST. Louis.
THE Buckeye State in command of Capt
II. J. Vinton, is the Tuesday packet for Gin
clnnati and all way points on the Ohio
river.
The Rosa Lee for Osceola, Coahoma for
Friars Point, and the Kate Adams for Ar
kansas City all depart this evening at
o'clock.
THERE will be two boats by the name of
Rhea next season in the Cumberland river
trade, the b. 5. and |. T. Rhea, named for
father and son.
THE City Of New Orleans passed down
from 81. Louis TO New Orleans yesterday
morning with full load She transacted
very little business here.
NINETEEN years ago Capt Ben Howard. of
the City Of Monroe, lost a silk umbrella at
the Cairo wharf. On his arrival there last
Wednesday the identicle article was restored
to him, considerably the worse for wear, but
with his name still traceable upon the silver
handle.
CoMMoDoRE p. p. MASIoN and Capt Harry
Brolaski are figuring on the erection of a
new boat for the excursion business at ST.
Louis next season. 1t Is intended To make
the vessel very large one, capable Of carry
ing 1900 passengers. They are negotiating
with Paducah parties for the construction OF
the hull. They intend 10 run two boats in
the excursion business there next season.
OWING 10 the demand for cutters ON the
rice plantations there is scarcity Of labor
on the river at New Orleans, and the roust-
abouts are taking adyantageof the situation
and are trying to gougc the steamboats,. The
coast steambOatmen, however have come TO
the conclusion that $40 a month, with three
square meals n day, is very fair pay for
roustabouts, and rather than give more they
threaten to lay their boats up.

a Mexican Snake Story.
A family in San Luis Potosi possessed a
very fine rattlcsnake. They had captured II
by means OF forkcd stick when II was a
baby, and succeeded in DEMONSTRATING 1t. In
the course Of years IL grew TO bc fourteen
feet in length, and became tame and playful
never showing the slightest symptom Of anger
when handled by the children, but IL would
not allow its rattles to bc touched. Il bc.
came very much attached to its master, and
would follow him around the house like a
dog. During the recent storm In San Luis
many of the houses were struck by lightning.
The bolts wcrc falling fast about the dwell.
Ing, which had sheltered the snake from
childhood. Nobly determined to die for its
bencfac,ors, tho serpent crawlcd up the out
side walls Of thu house, and mounting tho
roof II stood on Its head In perpendicular
position for the space Of several minutes,
shaking It's rattlcs violently at the heavens,
like Ajax. dcfying the lightning. The cleo.
tricity, attracted by the living lightning rod,
reduced to ashes the noble animal and also
the house.
There is no use In letting tho American
papers have monopoly Of these snake
stories Two Republics.
