The RIygR. The river at this point is swell
ing and it is probable, from the news We have
from points aboyeus, that We may shortly ex-
pect rise sufficient, atleast, for ordinary sized
boats. The Louisa arrived from Sunfish yes
terday, with quite a large crowd of passengers
and full freight of produce The 'Iitania" is
running to Steubenyille, and is doing considera-
bic business in the way of passengers
From the Cincinnati Gazette Of Thursday, we
take the following;
There isno change to note in the riverat this
point since our last report There is about thir-
ty-four inches of water in the channel hence to
Paducah, and four feet thence TO the mouth.
The weather continues cool and cloudy. Bn-
siness on the landing is very dull. The regular
packets are making their usual trips and are do
ing good business The handsome new ste.l-
mer Fred Iron, is loading for New Orleans, and
will leave sometime this week.
The st. Louis Democrat, ofTuesday, says:
RIVER RIsING-BUsY TnIss-,lhe river oppo-
site our city continued rising yesterday at the
rate previously reported, about one inch per
hour, and has sweiled altogether about thirty
inches. This Rilhrnake eight feet ut least on
tie bars between this and Cairo, and enable
boats TO take more freight than lately. Boats

principally of the small streams below, and the
Illinois. The gorge above Hasting on the up
por Mississippi broke loose a few days ago, and
liberated the a. G. Mason, which arrived here
yesterday in charge of the Sam Young pilots.
The weather had moderated some on the Upper
Mississippi, but an open river is expected only
for few days longer. Within a week or so
from today, is expected that all the boats
that don't want to pass the wintcr above win be
down here The principal part of them are here
already. The illinois has now u iinc siege of
water, which will enable boatssto bring out be-
fore the close of navigation a large amounted
freight, which otherwise would have retnained
up the river until next spring. Large quanti-
ties of goods are being shipped UP the Illinois
and Mississippi. There is not nlush doing in
the Missouri.
Yesterday was the busiest day on the land
ing for a long time. The large number of arri-
walls, the immense. quantities of freight, in bar
rels, boxes and bales, spread over the leyee, to-
gether with thick intcrspersion of German en-
igrants trainping along, and constantly lodging
the numerous drays formed lively, noisy con-
fused scene, which is a sure evideece of the ra-
pid growth of our city, and the spread of ciyili-
cation westward.

at st. Louis on Monday, reports the steamer
