RIVER lNTELLlGENCE.- have re-
pcatedly said that the worst point of naviga-
ton now OH the Ohio, was few miles above
this place, at what is called the Sisters, and
we have repeated proofs of it. The New
Hampshire started from Pittsburgh on Tues
day morning, with full load of passengers
and sixty tons of freight. After sticking at
Beaver Shoals and Browns Island, she arriv-
ed at the Sisters on Wednesday night, could
get no further, and was lying there at our last
dates. Her passengers came on yesterday, and
shipped on other boats for Cincinnati and st.
Louis.
The Cambria, Aliquippa and James Ross,
which have lain at the Sisters almost all sum-
mer, got off with the last rise, and are now all
aground at Beaver Shoals, where they must lay
up for another rise. We assure passengers
and merchants that their only safety i'm any.
like a low stage Of water is TO come OF ship "a
Wheeling. BY so doing they will insure
speed and economy.

few days ago at Hudson, N Y. Whether on

that he had been guilty OF latitude of speech,

knock the naughty words back again with his
elbow. Mr. jordan returned the blow by one
with his fist which hit the Attorney General
in the back Of his head. They both rose from
their seats, faced each other and exchanged
several blows. This was all done with great
rapidity, and Judge Edmonds instantly order
ed both 10 take their seats, and ordered the
sheriff TO take them both into custody. The
Judge, after brief con ,ultition with his col
leagues, announced their determination TO
punish so fragrant violation of order. He
directed the clerk to enter an order committing
both the gentlemen to the common Jail Each
OF the gentlemen apologized for their disgrace
