The U S. Mail steamship Cahawba, J. D. Bulloch,
commander, arrived at Pass lOutre on Saturday
evening at o'clock; but owing to the heavy sea did
not cross till 7 A. N. She has suffered very heavy

The river opposite our city is now rising fast, hay

rise for several days to come.
The St. Louis Republican, of the 10Th, has the
following:
The river at this point, having risen in oryeight
hours about twelve feet came to stand on Saturday
night and at dusk last evening had fallen four or six
inches. The weather extremely warm for the
season until Saturday night, but yesterday the air
was quite sharp, the puddes and the mud frozen
hard and solid yet southwest wind still prevails.
Should it veer to the north, matters, we apprehend,
would be settled by the upper rivers all freezing
up. Several boats below Keolzuk that were aground
were enabled to get afloat on the rise.
The Vienna got in yesterday from the Illinois.
Others are expected down to-day. There is a fair
