Mondays Louisville Courier says the
river was at stand Saturday but slowly
swelling yesterday, with eight feet two
inches water in the canal by the mark.
During the previous forty.eight hours it
had risen two inches only at the head OF
the falls, and six inches at Portland.
The ST. Louis Democrat, of yesterday,
says the river is stationary. The upper
rivers are falling There is nine feet to
Cairo, four feet TO Keokuk, three and a
half feet TO Prescott, and three feet to
St Paul The rise in the Illinois was
quite respectable, and no trouble is ex-
pected by boats in the next few days.
Business continues fair for the season,
but has dropped still further. One or
two more Missouri river boats have laid
up, aud probably one more New Orleans
boat, which always hold on while there is
the slightest use in doing so, has also
laid up.

A Hot Place.

From Letter from the Plains.l

might say hermetically-closed by a

INQUEST inquest was held yester-
day on the body of man named George
Russell, who was found dead on the
bluff. The body presented an emaciated
appearance, and it was evident that the
deceased had died from starvation. He
was an Englishman by birth, apparently
about thirty years of age, and had come
to this city in quest of a situation. The
deceased was possessed Of good educa-
ton, and was man Of integrity and
good habits. He, however, failed to
procure work, and, being too sensitive
to ask for help, went to the lbluf, laid
down and died The jury returned as
their verdict that "the said George Rus
sell came to his death from want and
exposure" The Coroner gave an order
that the remains of the unfortunate man
should be decently inferred.

We believe the new carriage was prin-

From the G~reenviIle (Pa.) Argus of
Saturday last, we learn that on the previous
Thursday evening that place was visited by
the most terrible fire ever witnessed there.
The fire broke ont in the Machine Shop of

tents was destroyed. The saddest accident
of all was the burning to death an old and
esteemed citizen of Greenville, Mr.. TIMo-

MARS, formerly one of the editors of this
paper. Mr.. Dumars was an employee at the
machine shop, and went in TO remove some
tools and furniture. The next morning his
charred remains were found on the east side
of the ruins. He was sixty-two years of
age. BE leaves a wife and two children.
