The river has risen from two - three feet sinc'
our last weekly report, and probably ten Z
twelve inches III the twenty -four hours ending
last evening.
Money j. still accommodating At commercia
points and loaned on satisfactory security q
low rates Of interest. Business i revivinG
slowly. The exchanges are down 70 old rates
At st. Louis and Cincinnati sight exchange i
emily worth 3c premium, and gold dull q t.
premium. Hers in Burlington exchange is
worth 2 per cent. Had We State Currency
like Ohio and Missouri, We could quote ex
change at the same rates, We doubt not.
We supposed. up to last week. that wheat
and -four had gone down to the lowest point.
But it seems We were in error, % the tendency
has been downward for week. Our quota
tons Of wheat are nominal, As none il arriving,
but it is hardly probable that buyers will be
able TO give even 50 cts.

thing except butter, which is scarce and in de-
mand. II is worth lOal2 cts in cash or Is in
