'Phe spring Of the year is the best season for travelling by water; the Ohio river is then in the best stage for navigation. At Pittsburg you will find numeroussteam boats, destined fur dificrcnt places on the western rivers,. Oo on board all the boats destined for the place you intend to visit, or call at; the ac commodations are generally good, and the price of fare will not vary much; but choose a boat whose captain is affable and genteel, nut habitually profane. You will get a cabin passage to St. Louis for $2O, and in proportion for any other dis tance. When you have selectee) a boat, Register your name and .pluce of destination; arid as .the dunce of berths is allowed as the names are registered, choose one as far back in.the cabin as you can; examine the '‘roles" and regulations” uf.the boat, and observe them. , In all the western fuwns and cities there are,good boarding houses, where you will 1 be well served for or f,95 per days—at the "principal Hotels, it will cost you more.. To travel through Ohio, you may go by Steamboat from Pittsburg do’wn the river to Portsmouth; thence by land stage to Colum bus; and then brand) olf as you may desire, or continue down the river to Cincinati; thence by canal to the Maumee, and thence to lake.

The mouth of this river is 18 miles'above St. Louis. ~ The Mississippi- river, bordering (he,east, side of lowa, affords an opportunity to reach that Territory; and, by the same river the South west part of Wisconsin. .The common fare on Steam boats up stream is from S to 5 dollars for every hundred miles, lessening as the distance you engage increa! ses. .
