Steam Boats or the Western Waters
Our friend John Ii. Wood, has just publish
ed a table, showing the name of all the
steamboats, navigating the western and south
western waters-aso the tonnage of each
boat and the time and place which each one
was built.


This i. a useful and interesting table, and
is, no doubt, as accurate as it is practicable
to make one. II is handsomely printed on
a full sheet of fools cap paper, and ought to
be in the counting room of every business
establishment in the city We believe it is
TO be had at all the book stores.


1t appears from this table, that there have
been built altogether 397 boats, for the west
ern and southwestern waters-Of these |
was built in IS26-3 in 1921 in 1880,
3 in 1890 in 1926 in lS33-36 in
1880 in ls35--I00 in lS36--9I in
1887 and 81 in 1888.


The largest number was built at Pitts
burg. and the next largest in Cincinnati, viz:
i32 in the former, and l02 in the latter. In
Wheeling there we're 10 built, in New Al
banv 20, and in Louisville only 6. The
rest were built al Cincinnati, and embrace
a larger amount of tonnage than those built
at Pittsburgh.


The whole amount of tonnage of all the
oats is $500 tons.


March 81, 1893. Ig-5m.
