.RIvER NEws.-The river is still rising
here, though slowly, the marks last eve
ming showing six feet. At pittsburgh,
yesterday, there was fivefeet two inches,
and rising slowly. The prospect at
present is not favorable to coal boat
rise.
Business on our wharf has been much
brisker under the influence Of this little
swell. If it should continue, and the
marks show ten or twelve feet for a
week, trade would be brisk again.
The Hudson, after being reprinted
and renovated, pulled up to the wharf
yesterday. She will probably leave for
Cincinnati on Saturday. She looks as
neat as a new pin.
The Garry Owen is loading for Lou
isville and New Orleans. She isadver-
tised to leave at noon to-day. We rec
ommend her and her clever and gentle
manly commander, Capt Carleton, to
the travelling public and the members
of the press.
The Flora, Capt. Barksdale, is adver-
tised to leave on Saturday for New Or
leans and intermediate ports. The
Flora is a new boat, and a good one.
For freight or passage apply to Booth
& Co.
The new Rebecca, we hear, will be
launched from the Harmar, Ohio, boat
yard today. The New State will
bring the hull here TO have the cabin
put on and her engines put in.
The Charles II. Durfee, burned some
time ago, has had new upper works,
cabin and texas put on at New Orleans.

THE STARs-At this season the stars
present a most brilliant appearance In
the hour that precedes the dawn. Just
now Venus, the morning star, assumes
dazzling brilliancy, and is an object
worth rising early to behold. The king
of stars, Sirius, which the ancient
Egyptians worshipped, and which is in
size sixty-three times greater than our
sun, also has its full splendor disclosed
in this hour before dawn.

day the citizens Of South Wheeling
vote on the proposition of annexing
that town to the city of Wheeling. The
reasons for and against the proposition
have been so thoroughly and freely dis
cussed that we see no good to be gained,
at this late hour, by debating them

great and immediate needs are plenty
of fresh water, and light for her streets
and the residences of her population
These she obtains by annexation. We
