The wea her was clear, mild and almost
spung-like yesterday, tho mercury RAGING |
at 4S degrees above zero at noon. At Pitts |
burg, the river is falling, with seven |
feet in the channel last night by the NIonon- |
gahela marks. Here the river has risen 81 |
inches during the twenty-four hours ending |
last night. IL came 70 e stand about noon /
yesterday, and viii be found receding rapid |
" to-day. There are forty feet hence to /
Louisville. There are ten feet over the 1
Falls, and twenty-five feet on the shoalest /
bars along the Lower Ohio. Navigation is

ST. LOUIS, saturday.-Ice solid as ada
msHt. Stand on one # the many pictures
que balconies TO be found attached to the |
buildings occupied by the famous steamboat
agents Of 81. Louis, and you gaze upon
waste Of slippery ice extending as far as +
YOU can see up and down our thickly ,
yelled Fsther OF Waters. Two paths now
extend across, and four streams Of people,
and two streams Of light wagons are con- c
tuuaIy crossing, but We see no coal. In e
fact the A. i n. s. s. Company consid-
cred it unsafe yesterday for heavy teams,
therefore that packet line shipped no 9
freight yesterday for Cairo. Their packet,
the Ruth Of the W. r. Arthur, will leave
Cairo this evening for New Orleans
The Memphis Packet Company has no {
boat leaving Cairo this evening, as far as I
we could ascertain. Capt. Jo. Banil, ate
Of the Memphis snd Vicksburg Packet Re I
becca, is in the city, having called 10 see I
his old friends. He looks as brilliant and Z
as ever. I

Orleans on the evening Of the 18th inst,

and cargo including two hundred aud three !
mules and her live stock. We believe .

S. Company, has sent the Julia up the Ohio

and mud. The levee was not at all attrac-
live yesterday TO people Of delicate consti-
buttons, and consequently our reporter has
very little for the public this marning. The
river continues 90 fall, and business is de-
plorably duh. There is eight feet hence TO 9
So. Louis. The Arkansas river IS falling, ,
with scant three feet 20 Little Rock.-Ba-

NEW ORLEANS, 18th iust-Yesterday was
decidedly genuine winter day, and all IT
needed 20 complete DO thoroughly was snow;
but a. that article is seldom seen in this
latitude. the weather was just ss cold as g
though it had fallen. We noticed on our
usual visit 90 the levee, at an early hour
yesterday morning, that the mud pools &C {
,asioued by the heavy rains Of the hrst, I
second and third days Of the week, bore eyi-
deuce OF the severity Of the weather, as ice
could De seen IN many places quarter Of
8u inch in thickness. Should it continue {
TO freeze as hard as it did Wednesday night, :
the entire leyee, which was looked upon
few days since as a perfect sea Of mud, will
become hard aed solid again.

mes and Ls'0urchc, from Bayou sara; the I
big Grey Esgle, from Greenvilie, the lndi- /
