Description
Full Text

Although but ten days have elapsed since the ice left our harbour, yet during that time a fleet of from 40 to 50 first class Lake Schooners have arrived in port all deeply laden principally with flour. A number of Barges have been already despatched by our forwarders, with flour, produce, &c., for Montreal via the St. Lawrence. On the opening of the Welland Canal, the down freight business will be greatly increased. --- Kingston Chronicle, April 28.
