Nautical Notes.
The British steamship Violauthe,
which has been lyiug so long at Gal-
veston "i i stream," aud came near
knocking a hole in her bottom in
striking the bar, was taken in tow by
the tug B. W. Wood and left for
Now Orleans last Sunday afternoon,
whore she will be thoroughly repaired.
The schooner John C Smith came
in last Sunday on a medium tide,
drawing 15 feet one inch. This will
hurt the croakers who are trying to
prove that there is considerably less
water there.
The schooner Kate Irelan, coal la-
den, came in after the Smith, having
been detained outside on account of
rough weather.
The Cresswell and Samuel Tyzack
are still delayed at Tampico. *Tlie
former will leave there about the28rd,
arriving here on the 20th, and the
Samuel Tyzack a few days later.
It is predicted that a steamer will
be brought hero just aftor the annual
rise in the river and loaded down to
her summer freeboard Atlantic line
inside the bar, or about 10 feet and go
to sea without being lightered. This
event will be properly celebrated as a
fitting windupto the seasons triumph.
The schooner Anna, loaded with
barbed wire from Washburn Moen
Maufacturlng Co. is due in a few days.
The schooner Benjamin Hale, from
Boston, Mass., March 31st, with still
another cargo of wire, is due here
about last of this mouth.
Eight thousand copies of The
Times were printed last week. The
Times is ail right and in a few months
will have a circulation that any week-
ly paper in the state could bo proud
of.
Father Murphy of Houston, will be
here and hold services Tuesday eve at
8 p. m. and Mass Wednesday morn-
ing. Also holy communiou to those
who are to mako their Easter duty.
