My Dear Ann, Again with pleasure I seat myself to answer yours of the 26th unclear, Which came to hand yesterday. I have perused it with cheerful feelings, Anticipating that I may soon see you.- We are getting along very well with our repairs, I expect to come off the Docks Tomorrow, and drop down to the landing ready to receive freight, on Monday or Tuesday next, I think I can load and be ready to leave here about the 10th inst, if the weather should prove favourable,- I think of running up as far as Alton, if I can engage freight enough previous, to justify doing so, - The notice you sent me of Mr Stickney's marriage settles the winning question, and I suppose puts all hearts at rest concerned, I expect him to arrive here soon, but as I have not heard any thing from him, I dont know how he feels about leaving his better half behind, Perhaps circumstances that I am not aware of may detain him longer than I expect.-
