The river was rising here yesterday, with

indicating rain.
The Spray, from Cincinnati, had good

The Talisman, from Cairo, is due to-day

The editor of the Leavenworth Times and
Conservative has visited the bridge being
constructed over the Missouri at that point
He says of it:
It will have a west abutment, a channel
pier, middle pier, a shore pier, on the
east side, and long trestle approach on
the east side Each pier will have two
supporting columns aud an ice breaker.
Three iron spans of $40 feet each will form
the bridge The eastern shore pier will be
sunk so feet below low water mark, and
viii rise 20 feet above the surface The
middle pier, the one which is now almost
finished, is 10 feet below low water, and
will be 20 feet above the water. The chan
mel pier will be sunk 40 feet below low wa
ter, and will have a height of 20 feet above
the water. Each pier viii be sunk into the
solid rock and cemented and afterward
filed with solid masonry.
This will make solid base for the super
structure at height of 76 feet above the
water. AS to the strength of these piers, a
recent experiment proves that they can be
relied on in any emergency few day
ago, after removing all resistance from the
bottom of the Pier, a pressure Of 500, 900
pounds was applied without tie slightest
effect on the iron cylinder.

CoTToN-The cotton market opened
steady at yesterdays quotations, and we
heard of one table of strict low middling
being taken at 23ii &c, but later in the day
under the influence of less favorable dis
patches from New York buyers withdrew
to some extent, and at the close pc for
best grades was the highest offer. Factors,
however, are 10th to submit to the decline,
and some lots were withdrawn from the
market. We modify our quotations

The fountain.s crystal turn to gems,
And from the sky such ooiors catch,
As if I were raining diadems;
But this, with all its charming grace,
Cannot ny shabby Hat replace.
Dear is TO me the little stream,
Whose unimprisoned waters run
Wild az the changes Of 4 dream,
by rock and glen, through shade and sun
But dearer still than all the rest,
Is one Of Vain and walkers Best
Flowers on its grassy margin spring,
Fish in its eddying circles play,
Birds midst the alder branches sing,
FlOcks through the verdant meadows stray,
And Maud locks up with sweetest smile
