Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1870-01-26
TRADE.

Business was active to-day, eXpe-
orally in the way Of orders. Our local
packets all had excellent trips of mis-
celIaneoUs freights, and went out full
of people. The heavy rise now going
on in the river is the subject Of much
alarm to planters living in the bends
below. 1t is true that an overflow at
this time would not do as much harm
as later in the season, but it would
seriously retard work upon the levees,
which is now being vigorously prose-
cuted.
