The R1vER.-T The ice has broken up, and
the river has risen several feet within the
past week. 1t is now in excellent boating
order for the largest class of boats, with a
fair prospect of still greater rise. Busi-
ness is beginning to assume its wonted ac-
tivity, and, as the season of navigation must
necessarily be short, and as freights have
been constantly increasing during the sus-
pension, we look for greater activity in river
business than has been known for years.
The value of products for shipment at this
point alone cannot fall short Of half mil
lion of dollars. sI
Very few accidents have occurred at this
point thus far. The steamer Wae was
sunk at Coalport, while loading coal, last
week. We have not learned the particu-
lars. The ferry boat, between Pomeroy
and Mason City is sunk in front of our Of
fee; but the probability is that she will be
raised and repaired in few days. These
are all the accidents Of which we have any
knowledge. 30
The weather was quite clear and pleas
ant until Saturday evening. Sunday and
yesterday were the most disagreeably dark
cloudy, rainy, cut-throat days we have
known for aiyear past. .1ia
From above, we have news to Friday
evening. The Allegheny was not yet bro
ken up to its source. At Pittsburg there
was nine feet water in the channel, and bu
little ice running.
