RIVER AND STEAMBOAT NEWS,

The RIVER commenced swelling on Satur-
day, and up to 8 o'clock yesterday amounted
TO about ten inches, which would give twenty
five inches on Harpeth Shoals this morning.
THE WEATHER has been rather cool and
clo1dy, with occasional light showers. There
have, probably, been heavy rains up the river,
and we may look for q very good tide.
ARRIvED.-Yesterday there were four arri-
vals-the Nettie Miller, Umpire and Month
cello, from Paducah, and the HartSoilJe from
GAINESVILLE. The Monticello reports nineteen
inches on the Shoals when she came over.
DEPARrED.-The Nettie Miller, for Paducah,
left last evening.
The Monticello, for Paducah, and the City Of
Huntsville for Memphis, are advertised to leave
to-day.
MEMORANDUM Of steamer Umpire-Nov. AT

light freights and report the refusal Of freight for

laid up Nov 3, passed DR.. Robertson, Huntsville
and Monticello at foot of Harpeth shoals waiting for

shoals. Nov f. arrived at Naahvle at 4! ?. NJ.
We copy the following items from the Gin
cinnati Columbian, Of the 3lst ult:
The river was falling all day yesterday, and
last evening it was still Withdrawing its boun-
diaries. The weather was mild and cOnsdera-
bly, indicative of rain early in the day, while
toward evening the appearances were less IN
favor of showers. Between this point and
Pittsburg so shallow is tie water at various
points, that it is perfectly impossible for heavi-
" laden vessels to pass. Downward bound
packets report several vessels as fairly lodged
until a rise occurs.
The landing WAS less alive with business yes
terday than the day previous, although not so
desperately dull as during the greater portion
of last week.
Light freight is offering quite briskly for up
the-rver ports, while for shipment below there
is no amount worth mention.
River men very naturally complain thereat,
and express themselves as earnestly, though
not very hopefully, looking for the good time
coming when freights and the river will emu
late each other in seeing which can get the
higher.
Prices of freight remain firm at the quota
tions of yesterday. They still, like good yeast,
have an upward tendency.
