flour; 3,000 bushels of wheat; nine barrels of ashes; 30 barrels of
whiskey, and 248 barrels of pork, equal to 220 tons, drawing ten feet.
"When Erie, or any other port on the Lake clears as large a cargo,
we would thank their papers to give due notice of the fact." (1)
2322 - H&G May 14: 2/3 - Thirty-seven boats arrived yesterday by the
canal, the greater part of them from below Roscoe. Today, they are
coming in as fast as it is possible for them to pass the locks into the
river, all loaded with pork, flour, wheat, whiskey, bacon, lard, &c.
Business on the river is unusually active this morning. A large
number of schooners are taking freights, so our New York friends may
soon look for the staples of Ohio in greater abundance than before
this season. (2)
2323 - H&G May 14; adv: 2/5 - The steC!mer BUNKER HILL, D. P. Nickerson,
master, will leave port this evening for Buffalo, touching at the intermediate
places.

2324 - H&G May 15:2/3 - Thirty-seven canal boats came in yesterday, each
freighted with from 30 to 45 tons of the staples of Ohio. Our marine
list. large as it is, shows only a part of the lake business, as we have
no account of the shipments made by the steamboats dai ly, which are by
no means inconsiderable, as the single instance we give today shows.
The arrivals of brigs and schooners in the last 24 hours have been 11;
clearances, nine. (2)
2325 - H&G May 15; ed:2/4 - We got a glance a few days since of the
RHODE ISLAND, a new, snug craft. and were pleased to observe "Detroit
and Cleveland Packet" on her wheel-houses.
"The enterprise of running steam packets between this city and Detroit
should be encouraged. and we hope the owners of the RHODE ISLAND, (E.
Morse & Co. Detroit) may be amply remunerated for their outlay." (3)
