Lincoln boats here.
--A steamboat loaded with cannon, muskets and men, landed at our wharf at the foot of Third street last evening.
It was from Cincinnati, and is the flag boat of an extensive fleet of steamers and barges.
Some ten other steamers, each towing ten barges, are in the river above, and will reach here in few hours.
The expedition was purchasing chain cable and anchors in this city yesterday, and all things combined, seemed to indicate the making of a bridge across the Ohio or Mississippi as formidable as that on which Xerxes contemplated his marvelous deeds.
Some of the boats are loaded with men, some with cannon, and some with chain cable.
In addition to those barges, some thirty or forty barges went through the canal yesterday so that the whole of the barges must number 150--quite enough to bridge the Ohio, or to be sunk in the Mississippi.--Louisville Courier,Sept. 15.
Visiting St. Louis. St. Louis, Sept. 15.
--Postmaster General Blair and Quartermaster General Meigs were here on yesterday.
