RAJ The RIVER is still falling, but Ow-
ing to the accumulation of shore ice
the marks are not visible to the naked eye,
and it is impossible to tell the depth Of the
water except by guess marks There is,
however a good stage of water in the chan
mel and the current being still very strong
there is at present not much danger of it's
-clOeing up. 1t has been observed that
every seVentEsn years the Ohio river rises to
great hocd. The last two floods were in
1882 and Is4s. Another period of seven
teen years terminated this year. As an i'm
mense breadth of country is now covered
with snow, it is not all improbable that
that one of these great periodical floods
will visit US during next month.

~ CoID.-The intense cold weather
has had a tendency to check business aud
all outdoor exercises, except suoh as
could not be postponed, and as a natural
consequence the city has been very dull,
from repOrtorial point of view. Such
continued cold weather is, Of course, Sc
yerely felt by all whose duties require them
to expose themselves to its chilling blasts,
and the complaints are almost without
number. The streets are in excellent con-
ditiou for sleighing, but the cold weather
prevents those who are merrily disposed
from enjoying the opportunity afforded.

ties the Crosse of Vienna says the follow
ing is the purport of notes exchanged be-
tween Austria and Prussia: Austria re-
pudiates the participation in the proposed
forcible measures against the middle States,
represented by Biswork, as revolutionary.
Austria will not abandon the ground of the
federal right, and reminds BisWork that
in case Prussia should desire the anuexa-
ton of the Duchies, of the suggestions
formerly offered to the effect that Austria
would only consent to the auuexion upon
being compensated by an enlargement of
the German border. The King of Prussia
bad opened his Chambers. In his speech
the King says that steps are to be taken to
form the Prussian navy. Preliminary sur
veys are being made for canal between
the Baltic aud North seas, and new Duch-
les are to be acquired.

The Times says, even the most rapid

clueion.
Tue whole tenor of the Africa's intelli-
gence ia favorable to the confederacy.-
Some interposition by France and England
or both, is still thought probable in the
south. The confederates deceive them
selves in attempting to propitiate Europe
| by offers of emancipation. Every European
statesman acknowledged the republic when
it was governed by the constitution, per-
hitting slavery as fully as the confederacy
permits it now. Why should the abandon
ment by the south of slavery buy a recog-
milton that is withheld for many other
reasons2 We know of no power likely to
accept the offer Of protectorate.
The idea Of propitiating Spain, the most
obstinate slavery supporting government, by
the proposal to abolish slavery, is so err
roneous as to throw doubt on the reality
the whole discussion.

Mr.. Higbie advocated the amendment.
Mr. French, of Ohio, said this was not a
question as to whether slavery is right, or
whether it ought to be continued or abol-

~A LARGE SWINDLp' TRANSACTION.
On Wednesday last, cattle dealer named
Cropp, from Harrison equity West Viz
ginia, was swindled out: S444 in Balti-
more city, by sharper IL the vicinity of
the Exchange Reading RO0ns' The latter
accosted the dealer on Baltimore street and
entered into conversation, during Which
he mentioned the names OtssVeral persons
residing in the same county, and near the
residence of Mr.. Crop, IL such familiar
manner as to induce the latter to give him
his confidence. Together they visited the
Howard House, and after nking friendly
drinks, went to the clothing store of Weis-
enfield, where Crop made sone purchases.
The sharper induced Crop TO accompany
him to the Exchange Restaurant where he
stated that he wanted to settle some bust
ness. He ran up stairs, bat quickly re-
turned with check, asking CtOpp to loan
him few hundred dollars, SIS his account
was short. The latter during the morning
received from outcnet 10 "N" u"u
sold cattle 1925 and from srother person
S2O9, of which fact the sharper had &C.
quainted himself. The purchases made by
Crop subsequently had reduced his funds
but he, without any hesitation, counted
out S444 and handed it to bis supposed
friend, who after receiving the money went
up stairs and thence out by the back door.
There were several persons who observed
the parties while engaged in :ounting the
money, but the appearance Of neither of
them was calculated to excite suspicion.
The facts OF the loss was communicated
soon after to the police, but theguilty par
