of q case of unusual Importance. At eleven o'clock
the courtioom was crowded. and all the available
space within as well as without the bar was occupied
by spectators, jurymen and members Of the BAR and
as the general conversation turned upon the anci-
mated proceedings one could not long remain in gnor
ance of the fact that Huntington the note broker

RIVER INTELLIGENCE.

THE RIVER was still falling at this point yes
terday, but it is probable that the heavy rains
Of Wednesday will bring it to stand again,
and, as river men say, We'll have more wa
ter before we have less" The dispatches
from above, yesterday, were not very encour-
aging. At Cincinnati, Louisville, Wheeling
and Pittsburg, the river is slowly falling, with
six and half feet on the bars below Cincin
natl The boating season has about closed in
the upper Mississippi. Business at st. Louis
is dull The Democrat of Wednesday says:
The river continues to fall quickly at this
point. 1t receded fully two feet in the TWEEN

Floating ice continued passing all day yester-
day. Wind blowing from the southeast, and
weather threatening snow.
o. The Diamond came down very late
Wednesday night having been detained by
the wind. CAPT. HoLCRoET says that he will
be here tomorrow evening as usual. Passen-
gers bound for Louisville cannot find better
accommodations than are afforded by the Dia-
mond.
OF The Nat. Holmes, the boat that sunk
the Cuba at Paducah, has been attached at
Cincinnati, and $42, 600 bond required. The
Holmes was loaded for Pittsburg, and in de-
fault of the bond is now in the hands Of the
officers of the law. The damage sustained
by the loss of the Cuba and cargo, is estma-
ted at 81, 900.
CEF Business along the levee yesterday in
spite Of the wind and rain was unusually
brisk. Large quantities of Southern bound
freight are awaiting shipment. The Bowling
Green was dischargiug full cargo Of tobacco
and produce, and the drays were busy moving
the goods piled on the wharf by the packet
Diamond. Altogether it looked like old
times

yesterday, little behind time. She will be
down again for Memphis on Sunday.

An Important Arrest.


A friend on the steamer Northerner, writes
US the following account Of the arrest of the
accomplish Of the villain, who was executed
at Paducah a few months ago, for one of the
most shocking crimes recorded in the history
of the last year. The accomplish was brought
up on the steamer Northerner to Caseyyille
and there committed:
"The fellow who was the confederate of the
Indian, that was hung in August last at Pad
ucah for rape and murder of the little school
girl, was taken in Pulaski county, Mo-, where
he attempted to commit another rape. He
has confessed that he aided the Indian in muir
dering the little girl, and that he has killed
three other persons, one in Gibson county,
Ind. He gives his name as Fields-says he
has several uncles and cousins in Gibson
county, Ind; he looks very young, | should
think not over II or Is years Of age. He
was in the custody of a gentleman by the
name Of Carter. He attempted to land him
at, Paducah, but being fearful that he would
be hung without judge or jury, he took him
on to Golconda. There an attempt was made
to rescue him, and he was compelled to leave
on the first boat; the Northerner brought him
up to Caseyville. The person having him in
custody is DESTROYS to deliver the fellow into
the hands of the officers. NJ"
