With slight variation the latter ratio
continued to 1S4S. Before the California
discoveries ia that year, gold Uniformly
commanded a premium which the influx
then destroyed, and the demand for sill
yer occasioned q slight premium on the
latter. The relative value Of gold to sill
Verin London that year was Id. to l5gd.
.Thf rice-of gold was then rs. Sd. per
ounce, and Of silver 5G4d. per On
the first of January, 1856, gold was 62d.
per ounce. This rise was due IN a degree
10 the fact that short supplies Of cettOn
from this country during the wars ~
quired large sums of silver to be sent to
India for cotton, as well as for other ar
6cles. After the gold discoveries in Cal
if0rnia, France began to exchange Der
silver for gold currency, sending the sil-
yer to India for silks and other products.
The tea and silk trade Of China with all
countries also absorbs an immense
amount Of silver.

RIVER MATTERS.
WKATHrR Arn RusrNEss.

The weather yesterday was hot, but
towards evening a violent storm of wind
and rain set in. Business on the levee
was, owing to the arrival Of a large num-
Der OF local packets, more active than
usual.
The river at this point is falling rap
idly, and has now got 70 that point
where the decline becomes very percep-
tible. The fall since Saturday night has
been about tWenty-four inches. At St.
Louis the river is rising, but not as fast
as it was predicted. The Ohio is falling
from Pittsburg to the mouth. The White
and St. Francis are going down. When
the TrabeT left the Rock on Thursday,
the Arkansas was falling at that place,
but it mad risen three feet at Fort Smith
on Wednesday. From about seventy
five miles above the mouth down the
country is again ~overfiOwed. Acrevasse
occurred in the leyee at Floyd Smiths,
some sixty miles above the mouth, and
great damage was sustained, the river
pouring through at the rate Of fifteen
miles per hour. OF sixteen hundred
acres which was planted in corn and cot
ton for the second time by Byaum & Co,
twelve hundred acres is again DESTROYED.
Other plantations have been equal suf-
ferers. The crops on White and the
Arkansas above the overflow are said to
be good, while those on st. Francis river
are not promising.
