ARRIVALS.

lw THE RIVERS AND WEATHER.
The river is now stationary at this
point, and is rising slightly at Cairo and
St. Louis, but not improving any above
there; in fact, navigation has about been
suspended above the Rapids, and the
lines running from St. Louis refuse to
receipt for freight or ticket passengers
through. The Missouri and Illinois are
falling, and are barely nayigable for
light draught boats. The Ohio is rising
at almost every point below Steubenylle,
and in the almost dry) Cumberland a
rise of one inch is reported. Arkansas
and White rivers are dead low, and the
former hardly nayigable for boats light
enough TO run in meadow on heavy
fog. Red river is just now the object Of
some attraction, from the fact that, as
the signal kilograms report, it rose
nearly five feet on Tuesday, and fell as
much on Wednesday, but nothing def
mite is known in regard to it. A dense
fog rose at midnight last night, and con-
tinued until very late hour this morn
ing, delaying all boats.

earthquake appears to have lasted consid-

gushed forth in plentiful streams.
