RIVER, BUSINESS, MISCELLANEOUS.
The river is declining at Vieksburg
and rising slowly here. AT Cairo the
rise yesterday was 2 inches, and at st.
Louis "a inches, with total rise at the
latter point of q. feet. The rise con-
tinues at Quincy, but decline has set
in at Dubuque. The Missouri is very
low and improving but very little. The
Ohio is falling all the way up, and has
but twenty inches in the chute at Louis
vile and feet in the channel to Cincin-
matt. The Arkansas continues to rise
slowly, and has to-day 4 feet I inches in
the channelto Little Rock aud 40 inches
aboYe there TO Fort Smith, White river
is very low. Regular packets in
that stream go but a few miles
above DevalTs Bluff, to which point
there is three feet of water. The weather
is clear and pleasant. Business fairly
active.

The new steamer J, S. Durham made
a trial trip yesterday evening aud worked
splendidly. She Is now at the landing
loading for all points along the Arkansas
as far up as Fort Smith, to which place
she is destined, and departs at pm,
to-day. Freights shipped fpE points
above Little Rock win, therefore, 60

chants should make her first trip huge
one in the way of freight, and thereby
show little more disposition to patron
ize and support our home packet lines.

TRE FALL TRADE.-All our business
men anticipate alarge trade this fall, and
it is nearly time they were letting their
friends in the country know what prepa-
rations they have made to receive and
dispose of the new crop, as well as the
advantages they can offer in the way OF
furnishing supplies for families and plan
tations In this connection we take
leave to state to our merchants generally
that the LEDGER Book AND Jon Rooms,
being lately supplied with variety of
new material and fast presses, can print
circulars and cards IN the best style Of
the art typographical, and at prices lower
than any other establishment in the
South. We employ printers who are ac-
quainted with all branches Of the craft,
and can turn out such jobs as will be a
credit to Memphis; besides, they are old
residents here, and deserve the patron
age OF all who desire to encourage home
artisans and add to the prosperity of our
growing city. The favors of our mer-
chants and friends will be received at
our counting-room on Madison street,
and attended to promptly and care

GREAT SOUTHERN REMEDY.-The Mis-
sissippi Diarrhea Cordial is the great
Southern Remedy for all bowel COM
plants, collie, cholera, cholera-morbus,
dysentery and diarrhea. 1t is adapted
peculiarly to a southern cline from its
dsinfectant properties, inasmuch as it
cancels the direful effects of poisonous
exhalations. In all affections of the di-
gestiye apparatus and the bowels this
Cordial acts almost as a charm, cleans
ing and recognizing the vital functions
of the body. Sold by all druggists.

A YoUNG Wires REQUEST. Wife
Charley, / wish when you come up to-
night you'd stop into your druggists and
get me a bottle of Plantation Bitters.
Be sure and get the genuine.
Charley-What in the world, Mary, are
you going to do with Plantation Bitters
Wife-Everybody that l know is in
ecstacy over Plantation Bitters, and |
am going to try them myself. | am as
sured by several of my friends that the
Bitters will cure my dyspepsia, and at
the same time do away with that terrible
nausea which you know ] am at times
subject to. The doctor was in yesterday,
and says that all want is a tonic, and
that Plantation Bitters is the best that
can be got.
Charley-It is just the thing, my dear;
and it is strange that had not thought
OF it before.

Is FOUND IN THE
BOOT

i St. Louis Fair for 1869 was awarded to the
of this beautiful boot. IL COM
bines all the utility Of the sewed boot with the
cheapness of the pegged boot. Its construc-
ton is in this wise; instead of pegs, a peculiar
shaped brass screw is driven into the sole when
damp, and smoothly and securely elinched.7
thus holding the soles and uppers together so
tight that they can never rip or give way.
