The st. Louis Republican says: F" River
still slowly receding at this port; there
/ uDbH not seem 10 De Lue most remote
prospect Of a rise in the Upper Mississippi
-th0re was but little nov during the
past winter up in Wisconsin and Mime
sofa, and there can be no considerable
rise in the Mississippi from this cause.
AT Dubuque OF Monday, th8.river fell 8
inches. AT Quincy the river was falling
AT keOkuk ON Monday, tho river was
falling slowly AT Kansas city the Mis-.
sour river is falling; also At st. Joseph.
Late intelligence from Fort Randall and
Sioux City represents that a rise is
probable in the Upper Missouri. Upper
Mississippi river papers are already pre-
dieting very low water in the upper
tributaries. The Dubuque people begin
% think that the river will become low
enough 10 interrupt and partially impede
navigation very early ina the season. The
only thing that will prevent a fulhlmeni
OF these antiCipstiOns will be continued
heavy rains, which viii alone an up the
streams and keep a good stageiu the river.
The Missouri, il is now thought, will not
get very high, as there was much less
snow ina the mountains than usual.
