    The Steam-boat built at Pittsburgh, so long expected here, arrived on Monday evening last with several passengers, after a very remarkable short passage.  This Boat, it is said, is intended to be a regular packet from this place to New Orleans, and will make a trip down and back in from 5 to 7 days.

Made possible by the Rivers Institute and the
History Department of Hanover College.
