low Bella!re. a message from her own

on account OF the heavy Ice ice
King Booth and his Liberty did not

Captain Ed. MaucI. OF Cincinnati. has
notified Captain CTockara that the Bos-
tona on Wednesday and the buckeye

for Memphis. connecting e. the latter
port for New Orleans with the Anchor
line boats. The State OF Kansas Will
leave for New Orleans on Thursday,
February and the New South Will
follow for the same port on the 9th.
Many people from the upper river Will
make the trip To the Mardi Grls al
New Orleans on these steamers.
The Virginia. coming up the river
with the heaviest trip seen on the upper
river In ten years. did not reach Wheel

telegram was received from Captain
Calhoun yesterday morning. saying the
Virginia did not get away from Middle
port until n. m. yesterday. This will
put her In Wheeling about noon to-day.
