RIVER NE VS..

The river at this point continues to fall slowly,
but is yet in tolerahly good navig abe condition.
The PAcKErs-J. Mckee and Jenny Lind-havc
adopted arrangement. One of them arrives
from below in the morning and returns from above
in the evening of every day in the week, Sundays
NOT excepted, as heretofore.
FkEIGHrs, &c-Ihe principal article of shipment
down the river at the present time is potatoes. At
least Is steamboat loads hove gone down to St. Louis
during the week. Wonder if this is the reason OF
80 many Irshmen also going to the "Mound City!'l
Potatoes are bought here at Is cents per bushrl,
shipped at from 10 III cents, and command 40 or
so cents in St. Louis. S."
Ns-A Pittsburgh paper estimates that the rain
Of last week gave employment to about one thou
sand persons. 1t enabled fleets of coal barges to
start down the river aking from u to l6 men each
and a crowd of steamers. There was IA feet "atcr
at Pittsburgh the beginning of last W X.
IRISH EXODUS The steamer F. Ste passd down
yesterday with about 200 Irish Ia rcrs as deck
passengers, from Minnesota for st. Louis. We no
ticed large gang of them taking the packet a,
this place, night before last, for the same destina
ton. The suspension of work on the railroads has
left them wth"u; employm mt, but it is questson-
able whether thew will fare better in St. Louis.

Tie railroad track has been already laid across it,

regard to the difficulty with Mrs. 'woodburn. he
might have addressed his communication to our pa
per wissous any fears that we would do him the
injustice of Withholding it.
FIoRRNoE ONCE NoRE.-Let every body
read the communication ot"A Citizen" in to-day :
paper. He makes some pretty strong assertions but
10 abundantly able to substantiste them. His OPP
portuniics of knowing just what this trashy Flor
ence paper is worth such that his opinion Of it
J should b regarded.
