   (extracts of marine news)

              The CHAMPION has changed her days of running,
            as will be seen by the advertisement in another
            column. The close of a profitable season for
            this popular boat is drawing near, and while
            Capt. Howe may congradulate himself upon his
            success, the public will properly estimate his
            services. There is not, probably a better sailor
            on the lake than the master of the CHAMPION, and
            he knows how to choose the very best of officers
            and men. We would not mind doubling the Cape with
            him, provided we had any business that way. We
            hope to see him on the route at the opening of
            navigation, in command of one of the "floating
            palaces" of the Central Rail Road line. Not that
            the CHAMPION is not a good boat - there are few
            more seaworthy - but, if she is too small for
            the trade now, what will she be then?
            
            PROPELLER ROSSETTER.
              We regret to hear that this favorite steamer
            has met with some serious damage. We learn by
            a letter from the forwarding house of A. A.
            Smalley to a gentleman in this town, that she
            left Green Bay on Thursday, and returned to
            that place late Saturday evening, having been
            on the rocks in Sturgeon Bay. She is now under-
            going repairs. This accounts for her non arrival.
            
              It was the gallant CHAMPION, Capt. Howe, to
            land the first Printing Press at Manitowoc. The
            CHAMPION could not have done the County a more
            important service, and we hope our enterprising
            fellow citizens will appreciate it.
            
              The schooner JANETTE was driven "high and
            dry" on the beach near the mouth, during the
            gale of Wednesday night, and the GLEANER was
            near being driven upon the breakers. So much
            for the want of a harbor appropriation.
