WEATHER, BUSINESS, ETc.-Yesterdag
was a warm, bright day; it was most toe
hot for comfort. Business wss moderately
active, and the regular Monday packets

came in well laden.
The departures were tho Graad Era for
the bends, and Bart Able for LObdell's
Store. and Shark and barges for st. Louis.
Monday is generally q dull day, aad yester-
day was no exception to the rule. There
x;il be several arrivals here to-day and to7
morrow. of Western packets. The river il
falling slowly at this point. Red liver Is at
good stage. Arkansas and White rivers are
also at good stage. The Ouachita is asw and
falling. Rates to all points are firm.
The Wade Hampton, from Fort Adams,
was not in when we left the levee, but she
wassnomentarily expected. She will leave
to-day at 5 p. NJ.
The City of Quincy, the new packet. is
due here, and will arrive to-day. She will
leave on return trip on Thursday.
The Thirteenth Era telegraphs to Capt.
Geo. l.. kouns that she will arrive here to-
day, with good trip Of cotton.
MISCELLANEOUS ITEMs.-The new steamer

FROM OUR ExCHANGEs-Louisril le.-The
river commenced rising yesterday evening,
and the prospects now are favorable for a
good stage Of water. There is now in the
pass down the Indian chute twenty inches
large and four feet on Portland bar. Yester-
day being Thanksgiving day, pretty nearly
all the business houses in the city were
closed. consequently there was no business
done, and we have little to report. The
weather remains cloudy and damp, with
strong indications of rain or snow.-COufief-
