afternoon of that bright summer day
the two magnificent and swift packets
Robert f. Lee and Natchez, lay at
the upper wharf, with super-heated
steam up and ga niger squat on their
safety valves to hold them down, all
fully prepared to start out, Hmbered
up, on the celebrated race through to
St. Louis, a distance of l,24O miles
There was a lively hustle heard aboard
and the respective engineers, Andy
Pauley of the Natchez, and Chief
Perkins of the Lee, were the cynosure
of all eyes and attention. Capt. Can
non Of the Lee was moving about,
sporting genuine suit of hand-wove

incidents of the great race start Up
through the Mississippi valley the con-
tagion spread like wildfre, while fresh
bulletins and a stream of kilograms
kept all interested with additional
news of the boats, that remained
close together at Vicksburg, yet the
first twenty four hours run.
After a couple of exciting days the
racers passed over the better part of
navigation and, finally on reaching
Cairo, slackened their tremendous
speed. From there to st. Louis the
channel was both tortuous and grew
narrower. After long run of three
DAYS. eighteen hours and twenty-slx
minutes the Lee landed, ahead, at the
St Louis wharf, about noon, July 4.
The populaee of that city were partle-
