"NOTICES. We expect the fine ship Palmyra, Captain Barstow, to sail with passengers for New Orleans about the 9th of October. We feel assured that any persons who avail themselves of this opportunity for emigrating, will not regret the same, either for the accommodations of the ship, or the courtesy and gentlemanly conduct of the captain, which many of the Saints have before experienced. All parties going should be here at least two days before sailing. . . ."
