The Ohio river as likewise the Mississippi & its numerous large tributary streams are becoming a vast scene of commercial importance about 20 steam boats are already employed on their waters & as many more are now building some of which will measure about 500 tons & cost when completed upwards of 50000 dollars a single Freight from Orleans will amount to 25000 provided they carry only 250 tons of goods at 100 drs a ton which is 20 pr cent lower than is now paid from Philada and which voyage can be accomplished in 30 days. Passengers will pay expenses & the return freight will be considerable - …" </p> books
