RIVER NEws.-There was very little
activity on the landing yesterday. The
local packets arrived and departed at
their usual hours. The Golden Eagle
came up in good time with fair trip,
and will leave this afternoon for Gin
cinnati at 5 O'Clock. The New State
arrived from Portsmouth with cargo
of salt, and will take he T place in the
trade between this city and Pittsburgh
this morning at Z O'Clock, under COM
mand of Captain Charley Muhleman.
The steamer is in splendid condition
throughout, and from the excellent
reputation of her officers we shall ex-
pect that she will receive full share OF
public patronage.
The Liberty No. and barges, Capt.
J. X. Booth, arrived on Sunday even
ing, and are being unloaded at the Bel.
mont landing. They are freighted
with Missouri iron ore.
The Rebecca is the Petersburg
packet to-day. She will leave at II
A. M.
The marks at Pittsburg yesterday
morning, as we learn by dispatch,
showed six feet in the channel and fall
ing! Here, last evening, they indicated
nine feet and rising slowly.
P. SCATTER the foregoing was written

Orleans, arrived. She will undergo ex'
tensive repairs and return to her trade
on the Beuf river.

MALICIOUS CONDUCT. Some coward
ly wretches entered the Glass Works of
Messrs. Hobbs, Brockunier 81 Co.,
South Wheeling, Sunday last, and
broke one of the expensive presses used
in the manufacture of glassware
Thence they proceeded to the carpenter
shop and forced open tool-chest. They
destroyed of its contents whatever suit
ed their fancy. Several stumps of sto-
gies were found in the shavings on the
floor, whether thrown there with the
intention of firing the establishment or
not is not known. Leaving this depart
ment they visited the mould-room and
broke number of valuable patterns.
A reward of twenty-five dollars, we
learn, is offered for the detection of the
villains.

breaking one OF his lower limbs. The
little fellow was taken to the residence
of his mother and physician imme.
diately called in. The fracture was re-
duced, and the unfortunate boy made
as comfortable as the nature Of his in

a great sufferer during the night and

To BE LIeHrED.-Several of the prin-
cIpal streets of South Wheeling will
soon be lighted by oil lamps. We saw
one of the lamps 10 be used, at Brice's
drug store, yesterday, and so far as we
are able to judge we believe they will
answer the purpose admirably. While
the cost of works to light the streets with
gas would be much greater, we are con-
6dent our Southern suburbans would
find the light much more reliable and
not SO expensive.
