Lorenz,
Tuattas.—There was a splendid house at the
Theatre on Saturday evening, and the performances
were received with much applaince. A very entertain
ing bill is presented for this evening, which will, we
have nodoubt, draw a large audience.
The St Loui■ Reporter of the Bth, on the au
thority of the Missouri Herald, says:—"The Gover
ocieliasibeen pueblo to procure from the bank and
branches. the whole of the sum authorized to be
borrowed of that institution. Ten thousand dollars
of interest on the State bonds fall due in a few weeks,
sod them is not money enough to pay it, either on hand
or likely to be received in season."

BUREAU Or COIIST'N, EQUIPIN'T AND RET•111,
April 18, 1845.
SEALED PROPOSALS (endorsed proposal. for
hemp) will be received at this Bureau until the
Slat day of May next, for furnishing and delivering at
the navy-yard, Charlestown, Massachusetts, on or be
fore the first day of July, 1846, four hundred tons of
water-rotted hemp.
This hemp must be equal to the Riga Rein hemp
wow at the navy-yard, Charlestown. In deciding upon
offers, preference will be given to American hemp, if
offered at equal nr lower price than may be asked for
foreign hemp. The hemp must he subject to inspec
tion and approved at the navy yard, Charlest own, Ms.-
sochasetts, by persons to he appointed, by and under
instructions from this Burns t, and none will bereceiv- I
ed which shall not pass such inspectior.
Persons who may wish to furnish hemp perfectly
tree from tow, and ready for spinning, can forward
separate proposals for such hemp; which hemp, if the
proposals should be accepted, most, like the other, be
andject to inspection and approval at said navy-yard
before it will be received.
Persons making offers most mare the price waked
per ton of 2,240 pounds, delivered at said aavy-yard,
and must forward v.itit diem an obligation from two
persons of sufficient property to become sureties for
the fulfilment of the contract to bee/Juiced Into, in one
third the amount of said contract.
To diminish the hazard to contractors of forward.
ing hemp from the western States, which may not be
of proper quality, or sufficiently well prepared, the
Secrettrry of the 'Wavy has appointed two agents, who
will, when requested, inspect hemp that mly be pre
pared and intended to fulfil contracts to be male undor
this advertieement. One of the agents will inspect
the hemp that may be sent to Louisville, Kentucky:
and the etiterthat which may be sent to St. Louis, in
Miasmari, These agents will be famished with sam•
pies of the Riga Rein hemp, excepting for hemp fully
prepared fur spinning, and with the means of testing
the strength of hemp, and will be ready to give all in
formathas in their power, to enable to connectors have
their hemp property prepared, and to ascettain the
strength and character of it, before the expense of send
ing it to the navy-pod is incurred. It must be die
tinctly anderstood, however, that the inspection and
opinion of these agents is merely to diminish the risk
to contractors, by furnishing useful information. The
only inspection by which the hemp min be finally re
ceived and paid for will be that at the navy-yard where
it is to be delivered
In addition to the bonds which will he required for
the faithful pertirtunnce of the contract, ten per cent um
will he deducted front the amount of all bills for de
liveries, and retained until the completion of the con
tract, as ndditional security for its pet for mance. The
remaining ninety per centum will be paid within thirty
days after bills, duly approved. shall be presented to
the navy agent at Boston, Massachusetts.

THE public are respectfully informed that the pro
prietors of the Steam Boat Lake Erie have from and
after this date changed their hours, and in future will
leave
Pittsburgh for Beaver at 3 o'clock, P. M., and
Beaver at 8 o'clock, A. M. daily, (Sundays excepted.)
It will appear manifest upon examination, that the
owners of the steamers Michigan and Wisconsin, are
determined to drive from the trade the Steamboat Lake
Erie ; their course has been and now continues in full
vigor to monopolize the whole business; they were not
satisfied with having the lion's share of trade and
choice of hours in leaving Pittsburgh and Beaver, but
now publicly and plainly say they will drive the Lake
Erie from the river—a generous public will decide.—
Freights and passengers furallports on River and Lake,
carried on reasonable terms as heretofore. Apply to
