Tuesday. October 9. 1878.Arrivals.

'Isabel. Emma Irvine, Belloe. Mary Ida, Henry'•Tete, Fanchon, it. E. Lee, St. John, St. Mary,,Bastrop.

Departures.Alvin, Rico Farmer. Belle, Eva, Edward J.

Gay. To Arrive.Isabel. Alvin, lower coast; Ouachita Belle,

Edward J. Gay, Bayou Sara Belle, Rlic, Farmer.upper coast; Eva. Lafourche; Frank Pargoud,Greenville.

Yesterday was cloudy and warm.Business very fair.The Trenton is In the Ocean Dock. undergo-

Ing an extensive repair; entire new guards arebeing put on her, besides everything else to puther hull in first-class order. As soon as readythe Trenton will take the Eva's place in the.Bayou Lafourche trade.The Henry Tote brought 71 bbls new molasses.

The monarch Robt. E. Lee arrived yesterdayfrom Vicksburg with 3385 bales cotton and willreturn to-day, as usual. From her officers welearn that the people at some points on theriver are taking fresh alarm from the fever. Onthe Mississippi side she was not permitted toland between the quarantine at Natchez andStamps' landing, a distance of fifty miles.

The Gold Dust. from St. Louis, arrived atsome point near Kennerville Sunday, put off alot of freight and started back. She was met bythe Lee yesterday morning twenty-five milesabove the city.

The Edward J. Gay started on her first tripyesterday. Her skylights arrived by the St.John. and a number of men were busy puttingthem in. They are very handsome.

The St. Mary was turned over to Capt. JoeDalferes, who came down on her. Capt. Joe in-tends to put her in fine order and start her outa soon as possiboe for the Lafourche.

The Fanchen, Capt. H. H. Broad, arrived yes-terday from the Atchafalaya with a fine trip andwill return to-day as usual, promptly, at 5 p. fa.Mr. Theeo. Johin htls charge of the office.

THE ST. JOHN.-Another competitor for thepatronage of the coast trade is at the upperlanding, having arrived yesterday fresh fromthe builders' hands. We refer to the boat whosename heads this article. The St. John is ownedby Capts, J. P. McElroy andlE. O. Melancon andwas built under the personal supervisionof Capt. McElroy, by the famous Blarmore, of

,Jeffersonville, Ind.. to replace the old St. Johnin the Baton Rouge and coast trade. She is asstaunch as good materials and skilled workmencould make her, has an easy, graceful model.with plenty of power to back, it and presents ahandsome exterior. Her cabin arrangementsare perfect, and we are sure that when a pus,songer cnce enjoys the comforts that aboundon her the temptation to try them again will beirresistible. The name chosen for this fine boatis a happy one. It is taken from one of thefinest and richest parishes in the State (St Johnthe Bar tist.) given to her predecessor by Capt.W. It. Greathous5. the renowned coast captain,whose death was so sadly lamented at the timeand whose memory is still green, and it is asynonym of good luck, a good boat and trips ofunexceptional regularity, for never has a boatlanded here that was better handled or mad.more regular time than the old St. John. Capts.MoElroy and Melancon are both clear-headedbusiness men, fNo. 1 steamboatmen and accom-modating gentlemen, and if they do not suc-ceed in walking right into the affections oftheir old patrons with the new boat, in shortorder, it will be something wonderful. The St.John will leave Friday at 1o a. m. on her firsttrip to Baton Rouge. and until Capt. McElroy,who remained West on business, returns, Capt.Melancon will command. The St. John toweddown the hull of the old boat and left it atBaton Rouge.

For yesterday's proceedings of the Steamboat-men's Relief Association see our local column.

We have received a copy of the Marine Jour-nal, edited and published in Cincinnati byFrank Baker & Co. In his salutatory the editorsays that the Journal "Is designed to be spe-cially devoted to the steamboat interests ofinland waters." Mr. Baker was formerly theriver editor of the Cincinnati Times. He is afluent writer, possessed of any amount ofenergy and goahoaditiveness, and judging bythe first effort, his paper should and will re-ceive liberal support from the steamboat in-terests.

Capt. J. M. Tindel Is due to-day on the Bas-troo. Capt. Tindel returns from the Clara S.for the purpose of starting to the Ouachita Sat-urday next the light-draft steamer D. Stein.We have been requested to announce in this
