Louisville-Canal, &c.


A dry dock is now in progress of construction at the recess of the canal, for the use of steamboats when it becomes necessary to examine or repair them.


. The fees per ton for a steamboat, through the canal, is 60 cents. The number of boats which has passed through at different periods, is as follows :-

The Canal Company divided 8 per cent. last year, on their investments.


A Bridge is in some forwardness over the Ohio. The abutment on this side, is already completed, and it is intended to proceed with it in the ensuing spring. It is all under contract. The site of it is from near the upper end of the canal basin over the shoals above Corn Island, striking the main land, on the Indiana side, about three- fourths of a mile below Jeffersonville. It will cost $250,000.


she has 30 transverse state rooms in the main cabin, with two berths in cach ; the pannels of all the state room doors are faced with mir- rors; and large pier glasses veneer the bulk heads at each end of the cabin. The carpet is of rich Turkey material; and splendid cut glass chandeliers, pendent from the high vaulted ceiling, with their sconces supporting tapers of variegated colors-to say nothing of the rich damask drapery, and mahogany furniture, with which the cabin is otherwise set off-will give some idea of the appearance of the whole on entering it at noon day, as well as of its brilliancy, resembling a sea of mirrors, when lighted up, at night. This boat is intended as a passenger vessel between Louisville and N. Orleans.

Louisville continued-Corporation-Its latitude and longitude- Progressive population-Statistics-Manufactures-Exports-Im- ports-Miscellaneous-Cards of Merchants, Manufacturers, and other business men.


LOUISVILLE, Feb. 16th, 1837.


Louisville was incorporated into a city, 13th Feb. 1828, with extended powers of government. It is in lat. 38° S' N. and lon. 85° 26' WV., the seat of justice of Jefferson county, a post town, and a port of entry. In 1788, it contained only 30 persons ; in 1800, the popu- lation was 600; in 1810, 1,357 ; in 1820, 4,012; in 1830, 10,336 ; in 1835. 19,967 ; and at the close of the last year, it would number, according to the ratio of po- pulation of the five preceding years, 23,812 : the compu- tation, by many who have a better data on which to form an opinion, is, that the population of Louisville amounts at present to 25,000 persons. The business of the place was formerly more westerly ; at present it is tending easterly, and real estate is increasing in value along Bear-grass creek. The Frankfort rail road, and the road from Bardstown, enter the city at the eastern points. - The place is alike healthy ; and those ponds and pools of stagnant water, formerly the sources of the fever which afflicted the few, are now all filled up, and the many enjoy uninterrupted health.


The streets, on which the heavy business is done, are the three next to, and parallel with, the river ; and six cross streets extending back at right angles with it .- Some of the warehouses and stores are of great capacity, especially the former for the storage of heavy articles. Some of these commission houses are 205 feet deep, ex-

Louisville, ( Ken. ) in 1837.


tending from street to street, all of brick, (in fact nearly all the buildings in the city are of brick,) 4 or 5 stories high, well fastened, and apparently fully capable to withstand any pressure. The stores on Main, (2d para !- lel) street, are likewise of great depth, and capable of containing vast quantities of goods : this is not the sea- son, however, to see, to be able to form a correct opinion of the importance of the place with reference to its busi- ness in business seasons. The number of 1st, 2d, Sd, and 4th rate stores, transacting business last year, was 195 ; 60 of groceries and spirits; 96 of spirits alone ; 20 of groceries alone ; 20 of confectioners ; 50 coffee houses ; 10 taverns. The number of hacks (licensed, and rates established, ) 68 ; of wagons, 53 ; of carts, 124 ; of drays, 132 .- Rents are high-and all kinds of manual labor in demand : mechanics receiving from 2 to SS per day, and laborers $1.25. The rent of a store on Main street of only ordinary capacity, in a good location, will command $1200 per ann. - others, more.


Here are 4 Banking institutions : The Bank of Ken- tucky, with a capital of $5.000,000, of which John J. Jacob, is Prest. and G. C. Gwathmey, Cashr .- The Bank of Louisville, with a capital of $2,000,000, John S. Snead, Prest. and Alfred Thruston, Cash .- (this is one of the Government deposites ) -- The Louisville Sa- vings Institution, with a capital of $96,512, of which Gen. W. Meriwether is Prest. and J. M. Campbell, Treas .- and a brauch of the Northern Bank of Kentucky.


Louisville contains 12 Churches. viz. : 4 Presbyterians 3 Methodists, 2 Baptists, 1 Episcopal, 1 Roman Catho- lic, and 1 African.


The other public buildings consist of a Courthouse and Jail, both presenting rather an uncouth appearance, espe-

cially the former ; 2 Market houses ; a Museum, (in the wane ;) a Theatre; Marine Hospital, founded by the state, the United States contributing $500 annually towards its support ; an Orphan Assylum, and several other Hu- mane Institutions, which do credit to the benevolence of the citizens of the place. Here are also 8 Fire com- panies, the engine houses tastefully constructed-4 In- surance companies-Louisville and Portland Canal Com- pany-Ohio Bridge Company-besides a Rail Road and several Turnpike companies. The city, however, is without a Water company ; that from pumps or the river, being the only water used in it ;- and the streets are not lighted at night. On the subject of education, I can say nothing.


Three newspapers are published daily, and a (weekly) Price current. A chamber of Commerce has existed for several years.


The markets are indifferently supplied with vegeta- bles, although no better soil, or better situations for gar- dens, are not to be found in any country. The lower part of the city is a common ; and the great number of steamboats, constantly in port, or arriving and departing, would afford a handsome market for the produce of these fertile spots, (if -- horticulturists were to be found of suf- ficient industry to grow and take such articles to market. But there is industry on the opposite side of the river, and on the farmers and gardeners in the vicinity of Jef- fersonville, do the people here measurably depend for vegetable supplies.


Below Louisville, at the lower end of the canal, are Shippingport and Portland, two villages, appended to each other.


-

361


Statistics of Louisville, ( ICen. )


Shippingport* and Portland are kind of out-posts to Louisville ; passengers frequently embarking or debark- ing at them.


The municipal government of Louisville is vested in a Mayor, and a board of ten councilmen ; two of the latter from each, of the five wards of the city, and the Mayor, are elected annually.


Real estate, assessed for taxation, last year, exceeded in valuation $13,000,000. The taxes or tytheables, white and black, are $1.50 per head.


The spirit of manufactures is not manifested to a great extent. Bagging and Bale Rope are made in many places in the state, and become articles of considerable export at this place, whence they are shipped to cotton growers to the southward, who use annually large quan- tities. All those branches of mechanical trade in which the furnishing of steamboats with metalic articles are in- volved, carry on a heavy business.


The Louisville Foundry, owned by Messrs. Bridgford, Ricketts & Co. has one engine of 6 horse power ; con- sumes about 30, 000 bushels of coal annually ; converts in the same time about S00 tons pig metal and 150 tons of copper into various kinds of castings. At this esta- blishment, between 30 and 40 engines were manufactur- ed last year, principally for milling purposes. From 30 to 40 hands are annually employed.


*Here resides probably the tallest man in the United States. His name is Cooper. I saw him standing with other persons of common stature, and his shoulders were above their heads-I should think he was above seven feet : he is said to be 7 1-2 feet high. The circum - stances were such, that I could not ask him the questions I wished. He appeared to be above 40 years of age, and in good health, but not proportionably in size to his height. He owns hacks and horses, probably a livery stable, but this is unimportant. 33

The Jefferson Foundry is owned by Messrs. Beatty & Curry, at which was consumed last year about 20,000 bushels coal; working up at the same time about 400 tons of pig metal, and giving employment to 75 hands.


The Washington Foundry is owned by Messrs. Schnetz. & Baldwin-consumes about 15,000 bushels of coal annually ; has 2 engines ; uses about 300 tons pig metal, and 100 tons boiler iron-employs SO hands.


The Louisville Woollen Factory is owned by Messrs. W. & C. Fellowes, and is put into operation by steam power. It employs upwards of 60 operatives, and con- verts about 250 lbs. of wool per day into what is termed Kentucky Jeans. The coarse article, for negro wear, is manufactured by the power loom; the fine, by hand. Both whites and blacks are employed in the establish- ment; and it is thought the account of the latter is turn- ed to as much advantage to the proprietors as that of the former-no difference being perceptible. This factory went into operation about five years since, and its pro- gress has continued annually to increase, until last year, when its operations were much more productive than in any previous onc.


The Louisville Saddle Tree Manufactory, of which Messrs. E. & W. II. Stokes are the Agents, employs 50 hands. The machinery is propelled by steam power, and at it are daily manufactured from 100 to 200 saddle- trees. The manufacture of hames is also extensively carried on in the same establishment.


The amount of business, transacted in this city, last year, is estimated at rising $29,000,000. This infor- mation was elicited through the agency of a committee of merchants appointed for the purpose, and the result handed in to the Louisville Advertiser :

The quantity of flour inspected in 1836, was 15,309 bbls. The quantity of whiskey, inspected same period, was 17,597 bbls.
