Description
Full Text

No less than one hundred and twenty-seven eastern bound loaded boats collected in Rochester on Tuesday, in the space of ten hours. The scow WHITE DOVE, laden with wheat and corn from this city, sprung a leak on her way down. She sank near the third lock in Rochester. Her cargo is much damaged. So says the Union of last evening.
