Sugar was exported from New Orleans and sold along the river.[120]
West India goods were sent in barges by way of New Orleans to
Louisville and Cincinnati.[121] In the early part of the year 1811,
sugar, hides, logwood crates, and other articles were shipped to
Cincinnati from New Orleans.[122] Nashville exported bales of cotton
to Pittsburg in large keel boats requiring nine boatmen.[123] Lead
prepared at the mines was deposited at St. Genevieve, Louisiana,
from whence it was sent up the Ohio as far as Pittsburg, and down
the Mississippi to New Orleans, and distributed from these places
through out the United States.[124]
