Sunday was a busy day. Somehow or other,
boats invariably find it convenient to be on
hand Sunday, in numbers sufficient to keep
all river men from enjoying the day, as they
weuld like to do.
- We are tired of reporting the river
low and falling" but our dispatches from
above confirm us in the belief that we are to
have as low water, as we experienced two
years ago. BY the memoranda of the Cuba
published below, it viii be seen that she found
thirty inches at Scuffletown. Falling fast at
Louisville on Friday.
- Information was received Thursday by
Messrs Eads & Nelson of ST. Louis of the sink
ing of the steamboat David Gibson in the
Lower Mississippi, at Hale's Point about fifty
miles above Memphis. The David Gibson was
an old but good boat, owned in Cincinnati and
engaged in trading between that point and n
Orleans. When the accident happened which
was on Monday last. she was on her way from
New Orleans to Cincinnati.

has Command Killed ami Wounded.
JACKSONVILLE, June 9, 1856.
Mr.. Fisher of this place, who left Corvallis
ON Wednesday morning last, and arrived here
last night, informs US that intelligence was re-
ceived at Corvallis the night before he left that
Colonel Wright had been attacked by the
Yakima Indians, himself killed, and one third
of his command killed and wounded.
The news mad been telegraphed from Port
land to Lafayettee and was brought from
thence to Corvallis by mail. Mr.. Fisher cam
not give any details.
We presume the following from the Port
land Times of the 18th Nav gives the proba-
able position of COL Wright at the time of the
engagement:
The news of the movements of the regulars
is, that Col Wright, with his command had
proceeded into the Indian country, as far as
Natchez River, and had taken up position on
the south side ofthat river, where he met the
Indians encamped on the north side, some one
thousand to twelve hundred strong. The
regulars for five days had been endeavoring to
treat-with the enemy; hut all the chiefs, except
Skloom and Shewhaway, are found hostile to
making any treaties, and wish for more white
mems blood. In view of these matters Col.
Wright has sent to Forts Vancouver and
Dalles for three additional companies OF regu-
lars.
Col. Wright's command probably number
ed some seven hundred or eight hundred
men.
