RIVER NEws.-The river was falling
slowly last night, with nine feet and
four inches full, by the marks. The
air was pretty sharp on the levee last
evening. Scarcely person was to be
seen on Water street. Several boats
came down from Pittsburg on Saturday,
among them we noticed the beautiful
steamer Armadillo, loaded direct for
New Orleans. She had a good lot OF
freight and plenty of passengers; she
stopped at our wharf to take in little
freight from this city.
The K. R. Hudson left for Cincinnati
on Saturday, at 5 P. NJ; the New State
for Pittsburg, at Z A. NJ; the Express,
for Petersburg, at IL A. NJ; the James
Rees for Sunfsh, at 3 P. NJ; the Forest
City for Steubenyille, at PAP. NJ.
Boats leaving to-day-The Rebecca
fer Parkersburg, at II A. NJ; the James
Rees for Sunfsh, at P. NJ; the Forest
City for Steubenville, at q P. NJ.

STEAM FERRY.-The steam y-boat,
Covingtop, is now making regular trips
between South Wheeling and the Ohio
shore, shortening the distance for travel
to Bellaire about one and half miles
By this route the dangers of railroads
are avoided on either side of the river
giving a splendid wagon road from
Wheeling to Bellaire.
The Covington is fitted up with every
Government requirement for the safety
and convenience of passengers, and un'
der the superintendent of the proprie'
tor, Mr.. Robert Hutchinson, must prove
q success.

WHAT He THOUGHT IT WAs.-A pas
senger by q night train on the Hudson
River railroad tells the following: The
train was detained at Greenbush for a
little while, and while waiting, a cattle
train came on the other track and stop
ped. Such noise has seldom been
heard. The cattle beloved, the sheep
set up blesting, and the hogs grunted
until the passengers were nearly crazed.
One old fellow had slept for several
hours, but this noise awoke him. Rub
bling his eyes, he listened in amaze
ment. Good heavensp says he "what's
thisf" Peering out into the darkness
without discerning anything, and lis
tening more critically, he at last salts
fed himself, and set the passengers
roaring by the exclamation, "Why, this
must be politi cal convention"

A REMEDY FOR DRUNKENSEss.-lna
town down East the police have adopt
ed the practice of shaving the heads of
those who are found in stupid state OF
intOxication OH the street. Let such a
practice be established in Wheeling, by
law, that every drunkard taken up by
the pelice shall have his head shaved,
and we would at once see great run
of business to the wig makers, or very
great diminution of those disgusting
spectacles, with which our streets are
now defiled.

left the door somewhat ajar. We were

The Rights of American Citizens.

In this and in the preceding issue of the REPUBLIC
we have reported fully the space at disposal
would permit the proceedings in Congress respecting
the Rights of American Citizens Abroad" The pro-
ceedings have been mainly connected with the bill pre-
pared as we understand under the superintendent Of
the Committee of the House of Representatives on
Foreign Affairs and introduced by the Chairman of that
Committee, General Banks The time has come
when it is our duty to review this measure and
question with which it processes to DEAL well as to
point the which, in opinion, it is incumbent
on those who egslate for the great free people OF
America to pursue. AS is wont, we shall speak
plainly and while endeavoring to give no unnecessary
personal ofense we shall "nothing extenuate," nor
caught set down in malice"
It is more in sorrow than in anger that we feel our
selves compelled to pronounce the measure lately SUD-
mtted to Congress by Mr. Banks, as one OF the most
miserable and contemplate that ever it has oeen our
misfortune to consider Wesay we have been compelled
to come this conclusion by the utter worthesness OF
the proposed enactment itself We were honestly anx-
ous to have formed different opinion But we nnd 1t
