The river continues To recede slowly eat
this point, with but tour feet scani To Cairo.
Cur packets continue their trips, and "cone
up to time, although they are compelled 10
stand the frub." The weather was very
warm yearier,lay. and business on the land
Ing was very likely. At SPittsburg the
river was Also falling,. yesterday, with only
eleven inches water ia the channel, and no
boats arriving from lower ports, aud no de-
partures. At Cincinnati the report l. still
that the river falling with barely three feet
water at Warsaw, aud othy Is 10 20 inches
at points above Cincinnati. ~
The neat and fast little 9-4LdI'' Charley
Deshlel in command, arrived Thurdny
evening from Cannelton with moderate
"trip, and after discharging her freight, put
out for Louisville.
This boat, so well adapted for the Can
Melton trade, has been obliged, we have no
doubt much 10 the regret of such of our
citizens as have made Captain Deshler's ac-
quaintance, To relinquiSh this trade :or a
short season.
The Aida has now been about TIVE months
in the Cannelton trade as a regular packet,
during which time the limited amount of
patronage accorded TO her by our merchants
has barely paid her actual running expen-
ses, allowing nothing for wear and tear of
boat and officers salary.
She leaves for the present to make trip
from Louisville TO Nashville, in order, if pos
sible, to make up for the lOss she az sus-
tanned while endcavoring to build up n trade
between this place and Uanneiton. 1t is
with regret that her owners leave. even tem-
porarily, the acquaintance and associations
they had made here; they hope, however,
soon to return, when we trust our merchant Is
will patronize her to tire utmost of their
ability and not let it be said by our neigh
bors that we have not the ability to support
small packet between this place and Can
melton.
The Kate Sdrchet will receive freight this
morning for Louisville. Capt Frank Du-
souchet will be in command. The Kate is
new and safe boat, and shippers can find
no better safer opportunity to send their
freight up the river. Her accommodations
for passengers are unsurpassed. We CON-
mend her TO our merchants, and hope she
will receive a good trip. She is light draught,
and is, therefore, sure to go through with
out danger of "..sticking." EF
The Castle Garden did not arrive yester-
terday, as we had predicted, on account OF
her having changed time, in order to form q
close connection with our Cairo packets

leave in the afternoon of the same day. Tn,
'CastIe Garden is good boat, and is wei
adapted to this stage of water, as she is
very light draught. Her officers are gentle
men. and we hope will do well. ASS
The old pioneer, j. IL. Done, will leave
our wharf to-day on arrival of the cars
The Done is one of the best boats ON the
Ohio river, and her officers are courteou.
and generous Capt. Davis, who com
mauds, is the founder of the Evansville
Paducah and Cairo packet trade, and tina
alone is sufficient reason why our merchant
should give him full load. The Lis
brothers are in the Office, and will attend 4
all business with promptness and correct
ness. ----

French, left our wharf yesterday morning
