ST. LOUIS. The Democrat OF Tuesd
says;
The river here is stlll falling slowly; nc
prospect OF low water hence to Cairo flf
some time, as the Upper Missouri, from
the Yellowstone aud the head water
must now or soon be booming. SoWe
Judge from accounts OF q heavy gnC
storm and several days rains. Tho Ohio
we fear, is near a very trou blesome stage
40 that, between fails. short canals az
long sand bars, Louisville aud Cincinnati
river commerce will bee me very small De-
Vo.ume.
NEW ORLEANs.--The Times OF gundag
says:
The weather here still continues veT
hot and oppressive. Yesterday was abo &
the hottest OF the season. The mercury "a
III A. N. stood 90 93'y and between that no
and =. N. added three more degrees, ~
king q total of 93o. We had quite q hsnTF
shower between 4 and 8 M, which q a
ture, but, however, IL succ eded ia layin
the dust.
Business on the landing for the end 1T
the week, considering the dizziness or tine
season, was more animated than we e.
pected TO witness. There were a good .
mum Der Of departures. and on several Isl
them were noticeable fair enough trips uf
both freight and passsngeIl.
