The meeting of Israelites called last
night at the Synagogue, on Front street,
was well attended. NJ. Fishel was appoint
ed President, and A. Slaughter, Secretary.
Mr.. Fishel explained the object of the
melting. The following gentlemen were
appointed a committee to draw mp resolu-
tons for consideration: Messrs. Sickles.
Feldman, We'll, Fleishman and Iser.
Whilst the committee we're out, on mo-
ton Of Mr.. Karger, the resolutions adopted
at Cincinnati we're read.
The committee subsequently made the
following report, which was adopted:
Whereas 1t has come to our knowledge
that the Presidents Of the following named
insurance companies, the Germania, Man
haitian, Hanover, Republic and Niagara,
have issued instructions to their agents
hereafter not TO Issue insurance policies to
Israelites.
And, whereas, We had supposed that the
time for religious intolerance and proscrip.
ton in the republic of America, had
passed.
1. Be it Resolved, That We guard our
brethren all through the land against TAX
ing any insurance policies in the above
named companies 3
2. That we request all of our co religion
lists, who have already taken policies, to
have them cancelled, as, in cases of acct
dent, they cannot expect any Justice from
men so narrow-minded.
3. That we pledge ourselves 10 uphold
the above resolutions until the Presidents
of said companies have resigned, and the
directors have changed their policies to
such standard as is consistent with the
spirit Of the present age.
Be il further resolved, That the proceed
ings of this meeting be published in the
daily papers Of this city and the isruelite Of
Cincinnati
The report gave rise TO considerable dis
cussion, in which NJ. Karger, A. lser, and
a number Of others participated. III
Mr.. Carey, agent of the Manhattan Com
pany, was present, and explained his posi-
ton. He was not responsible for the in
structions given him, which, rs an agent,
he was bound TO obey and did not wish TO
be held accountable for them.
At the close Of the discussion the vote
was taken, and the report adopted by a de-
cided majority, but q few votes being cast
against it.
At this point Mr.. NJ. C. Sulzbacher
moved that all present, who favored the
report, come forward and sign it. The
motion carried but was modified by call
ing the list of names and each person re-
spending for himself, or firm. The follow
ing is a list Of those who responded

The New York Journal Of Commerce of
the afternoon Of the 9th inst. saws: "The
week now closing has been the most I'M
comfortable in financial circles of any like
period fer the current year. There has
been no panic, no disastrous revulsions, no
universal Strengthening of securities, the
discomfort has arisen from steady in
flexible pressure upon all who are carrying
stocks. The merchants doing a legitimate
business, have felt the stringency in com
mon with Others, but have been enabled to
obtain relief and accommodation upon
representation of their need. No class of
borrowers have been kept subject to the
grasp of the lenders, but the speculative
brokers and their friends. II matters not
whether this has come from a mutual I'M
derstanding among capitalist or a stimuli
taneous action on their part, based on the
same general views; the fact remains that
those who were carrying miscellaneous
securities upon borrowed means have
found this task toilsome process, growing
but little easier down to the close of the
week" .sB aE

Rowena, Cincinnati.
Nashville, Cairo.

The river was on stand last night with
five and half feet on Harpeth Shoals.
The Nashville came up yesterday from
Cairo, having good trip both of freight
and passengers. She clears for that port
this evening.
The Rowena, Capt. s. F. Hildreth, leaves
to-day at p. NJ, for Cincinnati. The
Rowena is splendid craft, and Capt
Hildreth is one of the most capable, ener-
getic and affable officers ON the western
waters. 1t is pleasant thing to be under
his charge on voyage.
Capt PEBBLES says hereafter the Rowena's
manifest and those of all the Cincinnati
packets will be sent Immediately on arrival
to the rooms of the Chamber of Commerce.
The Gen. Sigel is expected to day from
up river ports.
The Ohio river is falling from its source
to Cairo.
The Mississippi was falling on the 9th at
St. Louis, and all its upper tributaries were
also falling At Memphis it fell four inches
the night of the 9Th. tuf
The YicEsburg Times of the 9Th, has the
following relative to river matters in that
section:
Nearly all the houses in DeSoto have
been tied up by their owners to trees, but
Notwithstanding this precaution, many of
them have got loose and foated off down
the angry food. Several houses from
somewhere up the country have also been
seen drifting rapidly past town.
We are informed by a gentleman from
Yazoo, that there is scarcely foot of land
visible from Yazoo City to Greenwood,
save an occasional solitary mound, covered
with wild and domestic animals. The
whole country presents scene of blank,
watery deseation, positively fearful to con.
template. q t eF a
Numerous stores on the levee have been
deserted and the goods moved farther up
town, and in some of them the water has
reached a depth of seven or eight feet.
Those merchants who were so highly
posted on the hill, that they felt no appre-
tensions from the high water, and threat
ened with submersicn. A. l.. Jaquith &
Co. have moved out, and johnson &
Lamkin will doubtless be compelled to fall
back to-day, Notwithstanding the large
levee which was erected in front of their
establishment. On account of seepage
water in the lower story of the Prentiss
House, operations will perhaps have to
suspend there in a few days.
The Henry NJ Shreve, from st. Louis,
was discharging yesterday at the foot of
Grove street, and the piles of freight
reached almost beneath the window Of our
sanctum, on Washington street
The little tug Cleveland, while skeeting
around loose yesterday, mistook the main
channel and ran aground directly in the
rear of the Times Office. EsE
One Of the rarest sights which has per-
hap7 ever been seen in Vieksburg, was a
number of receiving and shipping clerks
yesterday, checking freight almost at
Rentgen's corner, on Washington street.

CINCINNATI, April l0.-The river has
