Yesterdays Louisville Courier observes;
The River was rising fast yesterday, with
fully nine feet water in the Canal last even
ing by the mark. During the previous
twenty four hours the River had risen one
foot at the head of the Falls, and some three
feet at Portland. On the Falls there were
fully six feet steamboat water, and seven
feet in the pass. The weather continues
cloudy and gloomy, with considerable rain
yesterday morning, and several showers
during the day. N rl {.
There were about three feet water on the
Falls yesterday, up the middle chute, and we
expect the Falls to be navigable to-day for
the largest boats to ascend, as the River was
rising faster last night than it did during the
day. .'t1 f.. '-H
The Cumberland at Nashville, was rising,
on Tuesday, with twenty-four feet water in
the channel, which, however, only makes
about seven and half or eight feet on the
shoals. .. ........
