Upwards is still the tendency of the
water, and at a rate which is hourly
spreading j tower fields and in parts of our

ending at 6 p. NJ /. of yesterday, the rise
was nine inches, the last three inches
occurring from six in the morning, and
indicating some slight abatement of the
volume of water.
Dispatches from Boonville and Jeffer-
son City report the Missouri river sta

a rise of three inches Saturday night.

Expedition to Nicaragua.

1t Is currently reported in the East and
South, that Gen. VIA. Walker is about
to return to Nicaragua with a formida-
bic force; and under more favorable au-
spices than have attended any of his late

affairs. when the establishments of Wal
ker In Central America promises to add
to the strength of our couTtry, and to
thwart the designs of the British in that
direction, we presume there will be less
opposition to this expedition than was for
merly manifested.
