A JUVENILE CoNcERr.-It will be seem
by notice in another column, that the Rev.
will give a concert at Crescent Hall, to-.
morrow evening. We are told that the.
class has made remarkable proficiency under
the tuition of their esteemed teacher, and
the performances will be very attractive
Let them be encouraged by crowded
house. We would suggest the propriety of
admitting young folks, who will be mos1
anxious to witness the performances of their
mates, at half price. tFg

RIVER ITEMS.


tag Yesterday was another beautiful day
The levee was all activity and life. Bust
ness was extremely brisk, and freights were
plenty. The Charley BoWen cleared for
Cairo with a good trip. The river is still
falling here, as well as at all points above.
The descending boats report 4 feet scaHt al
Scuffietown and French Island. On Cum
berland and Cascyyille bars there are "A
scant. The John Rdine succeeded in getting
off the sand, and arrived here yesterday
She proceeded to ut. Vernon, where she
loads the Bo,0en's barge, which that boat
will take to Cairo for her, where it will again
be transferred to the Raine The Bo,cen
reports no boats aground below, the Chan
eelLOr and Time having got off Caseyyille.
The bar in front of this place is again visible.
b6r Our notice of the dilapidated old
wharfboat, lying at the levee, seems 10
have aroused the indignation of some per-
sons, interested to the amount of $40 or
S5Oper month, who think it is none of our
business whether the levee is filled with
such distractions or not. Be this as it may,
we will make it our business in future, to re-
fer to such things, as every man of COM
mon sense will acknowledge the old craft to
be nuisance in her present condition. The
condition of the wharf itself is sufficient to
damn any place, without having it graced
with any such rat-deserted castle az that
wharfboat.
B6-The Kate Sdrchet has changed hands,
having been purchased by Capts. DAVIS, List
and Reed, of the Done, and Capt. John
McLane, and VIM. McClurick, present engi-
neer on her, for $6,250. The Kate will, as
soon as the Wabash river opens, run as q
regular packet between this place and Hut
sonyille. ~
p6r The j. II. Done goes to Newburg
this morning, and will be here in time 10
leave for Cairo tomorrow. Shippers should
be ready for her, as she is good boat, and
is in charge of gentlemanly and attentive
officers. tfl-.. ~.
pdy- The Sitrer Star is up for Paduc.,h ut
IL o'clock to-day.
B6r Capt. Zach. Taylor left for New Al
bany on the Mcclellan this morning.
B65 A man named B. +. Williams COM
mitted suicide by shooting himself on board
the Victoria, near Memphis, on Wednesday.
eH Capt. Morgan Bateman formerly at
the Nary Patterson, has taken command OF
the White river packet Admrai in place OF
Capt. Baird.
sas- Capt. Thomassons new packet Nag
nOiid, arrived at New Orleans on the 10Th,
from Vicksburg, with 6, pa Lales of cotton,
the largest load ever received there on any
one boat.
ads-Mr. G. s. Hall, formerly of the office
of the Marc Deaning, well known to boat
men generally along the line of the Western
ana Southern waters, has retired from active
service on the river for the purpose of locat-
ing a reliable steamboat coaling depot at
Natchez, on the Lower Mississippi. His
coal will be furnished from the Uniontown
mines.

II Clothing trade Of the West was comparatively
of small amount, aud was confined almost excu-
sively to a retail business in the larger towns and
cities alone. Now this line of Goods has become
an almost Indispensable part of. the stock of every
general Dry Goods store from the crowded city to
the cross-road stand. Like all changes in trade
however, this has not been produced except for
the best of reasons. Among these ara the great
saving of material by cutting a large quantity of
garments together-the superior work and speed of
sewing machines in manufacturing-the great saw
ing Of time in waiting for your turn" at the Tai
lors-the uncertainty of even hen getting salts
factory "ft,' and above all the saving of at least
oae-hGf the cost of the garment in the price. For
number of years this has only been a part of our
general Dry Goods business, but we Rave made
arrangements to devote our whole house exclu-
sively TO it alone with such lines of Notions and
Furnishing Goods will be necessary and desirable
in that trade. Belle wing that the true interest of
the trade will he to sustain us I'm this enterprise
we would respectfully announce that we now have
on hand one of the largest and most desirable
stocks OF WE'LL MADE CLOTHING that was
ever offered to the trade of the West.
We respectfully solicit call from all our old
