There is little new In river elrcles'
: All the packets are far out of time,
and It il impossible to announce any
boat with absolute accuracy. The de-
narture of the Lumsden for Cairo,
and the Mary Miller for Memphis,
this evening. can be certainly relied
, on. Freights are still very abundant,
hut navigation is daily growing more
: difficult and uncertain.
