Dection with the river, We are glad to be
able to announce that We have at last
awakened the Board to the necessity OF
having permanent water marks esiab-
lished, and in 2 few days We will be able
TO give accurate snd full reports about

an abundance Of water in the Arkansas

FINANCE.
The high price Of cotton in Memphis
as compared with other points has d.
verted much OF the staple from other
markets, and has added nc little TO the
demand for currency during the week
just closed. This demand hiss been met
promptly by our banks, though some o.
them found that they had more eZ-
change on hand than was desirable, and
sold to ~neighborihg banks at the buying
rate. To-day the offerings and the de
mand for Eastern bills were about equal,
and money was abundant for all pur-
poses.
Deposits run along about az they were,
except that many Of OUT factors have
made purchases OF cotton upon 3 margin
for their friends, and have drawn out
their balances for this purpose, and in
some instances become borrowers.
Rates are as follows:
