RIVER INTELLIGENCE.

The RIVER yesterday. from sunrise to dark,
had risen foot and . hall, and at nine o.
clock last night, was rising at the rate Of an
inch an hour The weather yesterday even.
ing WAS cloudy and threatened rain.
FROM WABAsH.-By private dispatch to
Msssrs. P. @. ORiley & Co., We learn that the
Wabash River up to yesterday morning. had
risen four feet, and still rising. This will give
plenty Of water on the bars for small boats.
and we may expect business in that direction
to revive again.
" By reference to our dispatches, it will
be seen that another fine Western boat has
been lost. with one on the Hudson. The
Belfast, Grand Turk, A. L. Shotwell, Amazon
and Sultana, all sunk or burned within a
week, and each one loaded at the time Of the
disaster. These losses fall heavily on West
srn Insurance Offices.
OF All day yesterday, men were employed
IN removing the freight up the levee to pro-
tect it from the rising river. The appear.
ance OF the river has been materially changed
by the rise of the last twenty -four hours.
% The Diamond has taken the place o.
the Rainbow in the Henderson and Louisville
trade. We fear that faster boat is needed io
meet the wants Of the travelling public be-
tween these two points.

CITY HALL.

The wincing and writhing Of our
neighbor, under the application of our
caustic, upon the subject OF the loca
ton Of the City Hall, gives us the most
tangible evidence that there is a 'nirrer
in the woodpile.' We affirm that
with the $4,000 now appropriated
for City Hall, no decent building can
be erected and fnishcd, after dcducting
the sum necessary to pay for lot on
corner OF 9th and Brady streets. We
understand that this lot was latcl,
bought on speculation Tor $4,000,
and In ready 10 be sold to the City for
$4,000, leaving $4,000 for TIA cree
ton Of City Hall. Now the Gozette
knows that its talk about central
position is all LOsh, and that every
dollar o. the money appropria ed ought
to be put into the building, instead OF
cxpendIng a part OF it for land upon
which TO erect it. We fu,ther,nor"
affirm, the Guzeih's,,"high legal autho
lty" to the contrary notwithstanding,
that there is no legal bar to the plan
Of the CITY a d County uniting in the
erection Of building to be used both
for Court House and City Hall.
That high legal authority" ought 10
know that even If the grant was most
stringent respecting the uses of this
square, still the proposed plan will no,
infringe upon Tie grant or make ii
void. We believe that every Sabbath
there is a religious meeting in the
Court House, and this is no violation
OF the grant. The grant is such that
so long rs the COMFY makes it the
place for County buildings IN shall b.
County property. There is nothing to
prevent u jolnt Use OF "A building lol
City and County. As to the remark
Of the Gozefte respecting the trouble
and difficulty of such union of inter
csts, We simply say that the ease is not
on record where in has ever occurred.
in all New England, New York City
and State, in nearly every city of the
Union, in Philadelphia the City aud
County have joint building; and in
many OF the States, City, County ami
State unite in building for joint use.
Chicago is the same, and We do not
now remember City where the City
and County have no, Just such an al
rangcmcnt. We know that it is both
unwise and lmpoitic for this City to
build n City Hall, and in year or two
be compelled to pay half the cost OF
building u new Court House.
