port Of the w~ater,Rofks b channel depth,
At this point, or something less tHan fsvehs
teen feet. The river nt Pittsburg was sta
tonarY, with eve feet eight Inches Of water
there. s,.e
The weather was quite inclcment ycstefs
day, raining AZ intervals until about six
o'clock in the evening", when a heavy wind
occurred, which, We fear, cupsed considerable
damage on the liver.
Business was dull on The Landing, and
freights were scarce to all points, at our pre-
vious rates.
Yesterdays Louisville Charter observes.
The River was still falling yesterday,
though rather slowly, with six teet seven
inches water in the canal by the mark at
dark. On the Falls there were four feet
seven inches water in the pass. Daring tha
previous twenty. four hours, the River had
fallen three inches at the wharf aud nine
inches at Portland. The welther is warm
end variable, with several liPht showers OF
Good Rum.EBy special Dispatch to Captain
Erwin, the agent, we learn that the new
clipper Louisville. Captain iHollerafG from
New Orleans, passed Vickeburg Yesterday
morning at two o'clock. She LETT New Or 2
leans on Saturday evening, and her time 10
Vickeburg was only thirty-tWo or thirty
three hours. That is a very good run, aHd
it proves her a swift nag. She would, at the
same rate, come to Louisville in i've days.
Collision OF TIE j. A. COTTBE AND LOUIS
vlLLE.-By dispatches received last evening
from Vicksburg, we lesrn that the J. Cot
ten, bound down, and the Louisville, coming
nm, came into collision yesterday morning
at Pawpaw Island, in the Mississippi, twenty
miles above Vicksburg. The Gotten was
uniniured, but the Louisville had her wheel
demolished or knocked down. The dispatch
states that the Gotten ran into the LOUIS
vile.
The latter was probably Just coming up
out of the chute just as the Gotten came
down the bend of the River, the course OF
the two boats being almost at right angles,
and they must have been very close together
before they were observed. The LOUISVILLE
is probably coming up on one wheel. IL is
an unfortunate accident, as she was making
very good time on a business trip.
Yesterdays st. Louis Republican remarks.
The river at this port is falling at the rate
Of eight and three-fourth inches in twenty
four hours, and is thirteen feet ten and
three fourth inches above low water mark OF
December last, according to the City En-
gineer's report.
The upper rivers are all falling slowly, ana
are in good stage, excepting the Missouri,
which is low, there being only three and
half feet in the channel from st. Joseph to
the mouth.
The weather was fine and warm yester-
day. Toward evening the indications we're
for rain. rCtA.
Business on the landing is brisk, and
there isa very large amount of tunuage in
port. Tunnage for New Orleans is particu-
larly plenty.
Arrivals yesterday were the Clara Dolson,
Emma Walsh and D. A. January, from New
Orleans. The D. A. Januaryis manifest was
published yesterday. The W. L. Ewing,
Denmark and Jennie Deans arrived from the
Upper Mississippi with full cargoes. The
City of Alton, from Altonj Brazil, Louis
Vile and Minnesota Belle, from the Illinois
River; Medora, from Arkansas River, and
Scotland, from 0uachita River. The boats
