The weather, yesterday, was pleasant

quickly dried up.
Business was dull. The Montgomery
completed her load here, which was about
the only shipments We noticed.
The Bowen put out at noon, with fair
trip for Cairo the Sarchet, for the Wabash,
and the Greenville, for Bowling Green.
The fine packet, Silver Star, will leave to-
day for Paducah. The Star carries the mail
and consequently runs on time.
The splendid steamer Tishomingo, Capt.
Ham. Smith, is the regular Louisville packet
this evening, at clock. Her gentleman
ly agent, Mr.. Porter, is found on hand al
ways, to take charge of any freight with
which she may be entrusted.
The Scioto No. 2, came down yesterday
evening, with good trip, and returned the
same night. The Scioto is determined not
to lose her laurels in the matter of accom-
mediation and freight.
Our thanks are due the steamer Eclipse
for the latest New Orleans papers. She
passed up very early yesterday moraing.
PROM OUR EXCHANGES.
hHsbUrg Dispateh, 23d inst.-Yesterday
was wet disagreeable day, light, driz-
cling rain falling almost without cessation
from morning till night.
The river was about at a stand, and yes
terday evening appeared to be swelling
slightly. Doubtless the rains Of the past
week will give us another rise Of few feet,
they seem to have extended generally over
the country.
On the wharf business was dull. Very
little freight was shipped, and the only ac-
tivity was in discharging the cargoes Of the
boats just arrived. The only change in
treights to note is reduction TO Nashville.
Iron and nails are now shipping at ,2oc.-
Steamboatmen seem to have recovered their
usual equanimity, and view the present un-
favorable aspect OF business with a degree
of cheerful resignation hardly to be expect
ed. "There's good time coming"
Cincinnati Commercial, 25h-The weather
cleared up:mild and pleasant yesterday, az
ter raining steadily for three days. The
river is high and rising from Pittsburg to
Louisville-the Falls being navigable for
the largest class of steamers. Here, it has
risen feet during the 4s hours ending last
night, and was still swelling slowly. Three
feet more will bring the water up to the
pavement at the foot of Main street. We
have no change to note in freights. The
offerings are fair to nil points except New
Orleans. Owing to the scarcity of Southern
freights. ard in order to facilitate shipments,
Capt. Neal, on Saturday, reshipped the
Queen Citys freight with Capt Hoople, on
the Madison, thus enabling the latter to
leave yesterday, with q full cargo, including
her way engagements. The movement
will prove advantageous to shippers, as nei-
Their boat could have departed with paying
trip before The middle of the present week.
-Neic Orleans CrescentI2 weather
yesterday was clear, sunny, mild and pleas
ant, the dust becoming little troublesome.
Business on the landing was fair. Freights
were in better offering than for number
of days previous, and most of the departures
left with paying trips. The passenger bus
mess continues good and is perceptibly on
| the increase.
The river at this point has at last reached
its highest mark of last year. At dark last
evening it was trifie above that mark,
with fair prospect that it has yet to rise
several inches
