Excerpt from Natural and Statistical View, or Picture of Cincinnati and the Miami Country, Illustrated by Maps: With an Appendix, Containing Observations on the Late Earthquakes, the Aurora Borealis, and South-West Wind There are but two considerable rapids. The first, called Le Tart's, is' about 230 miles below Pittsburgh. It is a ripple caused by rocks - rather dangerous in low water, perceptible when the water is at a mean height, but net discoverable in moderate floods. The other, 560 miles below Pittsburgh, opposite the town of Louis ville, called, by way of pre-eminence, the falls, has a descent of 22 1-2 feet in two miles. The bed of the river consists of stratified, level, limestone. In low water, loaded boats cannot descend; in a medium flood, they pass down in safety, under the direction of apilot.
