CRESCENT orr1gF, No. 81 Q AMI, s!Esrr,}
Yesterday we again experienced warm weather.
70 say that such weather is facilitating and pros,
tratng is to convey no adequate idea of the
effects of the intense heat upon everything and
everybody. During the past two days the Their
mometer has figured high up into the eighties with
remarkable consistency, and man, in like ratio,
has let down - in the scale of earthly comfort.
The arrivals and departures yesterday were
wonderfully scarce-there being only three of the
latter viz Starlight, for Red river, and the Mol
lie Able and Mohawk, with barges, for St. Louis
and but one arriyal-tbe Yicksburg, from Ouachi,
ia river. We, however expect to see more ar
rivals at the evee this morning, as the steamers
Fashion, from YiCksburg; Cleona, from Ope-
Iousas; Louis Dor, from Red river; Louisiana,
from Louisville; Luminary, Olive Branch and
White Cloud, from St. Louis, are now due, and
will be in port ready to receive, and will leave
again on their regular days, as advertised.
The J. NJ. Sharp for Lafourohe, and St, Nicholas
for Bayou Sara, will also be receiving to leave
again tomorrow the former at 10 A. M, and the
latter at p NJ.
By reference to the advertisement, our readers
will learn that Capt J. j. Compere has chartered
the fine steamer Frolio and will leave on Tuesday
next for Mmden, and all landings on Lake Bjste-
neau. Captain ], G. Joaren Will oficiate as clerk
Of this boat The Froic will Take freight fur all
landings on Cane river
By telegram to Mr.. Thos Eeafe, agent. dated
Vicksburg, yesterday, we learn that the steamer
Louisiana from Louisville, will arrive this evening
She viii return to Memphis Cairo and all way
landings on the Ohio river, on Monday, the 18th
inst.
CLIPPINGS FROM OUR EXCHANGES.
ST, LOUIS, June l9.-Haying risen about four
feet, the river at this point has been declining
since Saturday evening. Above Dubuque tile rise
from the rains was about two feet, and on the
lower rapids near twelve inches.
Inc Missouri is in line condition for h0atinE. A
weeks sultry weather without rain would dry up
few feet Of it.
The Illinois is still swelling, with four feet to
Peoria, and three feet to Lasalle.
River business fair. Receipts from the Illinois
and upper Mississippi continue heavy. Numerous
boats val! begin arriving in few days, all with
more or less gold dust. With the decline of the
rivers these boats will doubtless get into employ
nent in other trades.
As the Bannock City was backing out on Sat
urday, one of her cylinder heads was blown ofI
and she remained in port for repairs. Her head
engineer was badly injured by fragment of the
ron. His leg, arm and side were sh0ckiHgly mu.
tilated.
The stately Commonwealth will leave to-day at
noon for New Orleans. Capt. Jos. Lloyd com
mand5. As MIR. j, K. Boyles will perform a pill
