We would suggest to the City Council the, nrnnrietv. and indeed the absolute neeessi-. ty, of designating a portion of the wharf "fbrfh landini and loeaJfion? of fiatboat 'and barges. As it now is, aridliasWeh for years, flatboats and barges He all along the wharf. Ro that it is almost impossible for Fteamboats to find landing. This is not a good plan, and not -only militates against the trade of the city, br i often Involves vpiRtions and expensive law suits, one or ", two of which are now pending in the Cir- cuit Court of this county. Let a location 1 for flatboats and barges be designated, and 1 make it a finable offence for them to lie ' anv where else alone the wharf. Steam- .boat owners will no doubt rejeice that ' V pilots have agreed to a reduction of wages A,vheellng pilots have reduced their de- dcLouis pilots are now charging ?12T. for the ' i rcron nd trip from CJnei nna tl to St Louisand ! st .return, whereas they charged $2.50 before.
