Saturday Morning. June =, 1851, !
The river at this point continues to fall, From
above we learn that the rivers all continue to de.
cline.
The weather yesterday was bright and hot, the
mercury keeping high up in the eighties.
The ievee still retains its usual appearance, dull
and inactive.
The steamer Mary E. Keene left Memphis las
Wednesday with 1900 sacks Of corn and fair TRIP
in other respects. She viii be found at the land
ing this morning receiving, and leaves on her re-
turn trip this evening.
We were glad to see on our streets yesterday
Capt Ed G. Carter, inst from Arkansas he Is
here, we believe, to start his packet, the S9th
Parallel, in the Memphis trade.
We understand that Capt. John Smoker intends
to change the name of his boat that he purchased
some short time since, the Fanny Pearson, to Jack
son, after the great hero, Jackson of Virginia,
who lost his life in defending the Confederacy flag
at Alexandria
The O. s. steamer Jackson, formerly the tow
boat Yankee, left yesterday for some point up the
river.
CrScfNNArI. AND PIYrsBuRG fSTEAMBoATMEN Sol
DIERRs.-Many OF the officers of the Camp Clay
goiunteSrs at Cincinnati, have heretofore been en-
gagged in steauboatipg on our Southern rivers,
Guthrie, the Colonel Of the bogus First Kentucky
! Regiment, is, we believe, an old Cincinnati engi-
neer; Enyart the f4ieutenant-Colonel, is also a
Cincinnati boatman having been at one time Cap
tain Of the Hudson and DunIeith, in the Nashville
ana Cincinnati trade; Bart Lepor, the Major of the
same regiment, is Pittsburger, having been in
command of several boats, and the owner and
Captain Of the Stephen Decatur. Capt. W 7.
n, ra1., F+En IS n
his brother, Sam. Barr, Jr Lieutenant Of q com
pany. Dave. Dryden, Indiana pilot, is also Lieu
tenant,
The Second Regiment is also 2eIlrepresented by
the tad-pole boat hands; in fact the officers and
men Of thisregiment are principally composed Of
the crews Of the boats now laid up at Cincinnati
and Pittsburg, aud these Cincinnati chaps are fight
ing.for Old Abe under the bogus name of Fer
tttcI;y poluReers, so that when the war is ended,
and they bring their boats down South again, they
!. claim the honor Of having fought in the Ken
lucky regiments.
The Memphis Avalanche Of Thursday says
The river opposite this point is still declining,
and the same report comes from St. Louis and
Louisville.
Arkansas and White rivers are both declining,
with good stages Of water in both streams.
There was very ittlas business transacted at the
pleasant.
The Louisville Courier of the 10th says;
The river is falling very fast, with ave leet four
inches water in the canal asst evening. The
weather was clear and quite cool for the season.
AT Cincinnati and Pittaburg the river was also
falling yes rday, with only four feet water in the
channel Az the latter port. That is coming down
TO low ebb, almost as low as the commerce of
the river.
The Mississippi at ST. Louis is falling steadily.
qY9 al the5u ibntnr thak
falling too, aud the navigation in that quarter will
soon be much restricted.
The st. Louis Democrat, the Abolition paper in
that subdued city, writes very flippantly in regard
to the movements of the Governor, and calls the
lincoln troops, mostly Germans the q loyalists.n
The better name would be tory royalists or cow
boys.
