Yesterdays Louisville Courier has the fol-
lowing:
The River was rising steadily yesterday,
with seven feet six inches water in the Canal
by the mark at dark. On the Falls there
were FIVE and half feet water in the pass
and four and half feet over the rocks. Dur
ing the previous twenty-fsur hours the River
had risen eight inches at the Wharf, and
some two feet at Portland. The weather
was cool, and rather cloudy.
An attempt was made yesterday to bring
the I. @. Twitchell up the Falls, through
the Indiana chute, but she was rather too
wide, and was drawing too much water, and
had to drop back 70 her old quarters, and
wait for more wafer. Capt. Haslett wants
to take her to Pittsburg to build a new hull
for the engines. .

STEAMER SUEKs-The steamer Wm. Henry,
a regular packet running from Little Rock
to Fort Smith, sank last Wednesday, thirty
miles above Little Rock. She is badly sunk,
and tits considered doubtful whether she
can be raised. She was worth $4, 200, and
was owned al Little Rock.
Sundays New Orleans Delta informs us:
The arrivals of river steamers at this port
for the week ending on Friday noon last
were seventy eight in number.
OF these packets, thirty came from ports
in the United states and forty six from ports
in the Confederate States. Of the receipts o.
the week, Western produce, and corn es
pecially, heads the column. Tobacco also
shows very good figures, but cotton, sugar
and molassss are declining in receipts. Hay
and hides continue to come in pretty freely
There was fair amount of business trans

weather, to some degree interfeTed with
many boat.
