THE RlyER.-The news from above
caused considerable anxiety among
river men yesterday, and a speedy re-
sumption of navigation with big river
is looked for. Dispatches from Pitts
burgh, state that the river is rising
there with about seven feet in the
channel and twenty feet at Greensboro .
Here there is ten feet, six inches in the
channel and rising. 1t is expected
that the big swell will be down this
morning. II it comes there will be a
heavy crashing and breaking by the
thick ice, and some damage may be
done, though we hope not.
Later.-About II o'clock last night
the ringing of bells and blowing OF
whistles on the steamboats, IN the ice
harbor near the city, gave warning that
the ice had started. Hurrying to the
wharf we learned that the ice had
started near the Belmont Mill, caused,
it was said, by the creek running out.
At this writing-halt-past twelve
there has been no further movement
of the ice here. 1t may 60 though at
any moment. The river is rising rap
idly, the marks now showing twelve
feet in the channel, rise of eighteen
inches since seven o'clock. We shall
not be surprised at seeing an open river
this morning. A dispatch received at a
late hour last night Gays that there is
ten feet OF water at Pittsburgh, swell
of three feet this afternoon.

HAPPY New YEAR AT THE CHlLDRENs
HoME.-Happy New Year! gentle
reader has much in its heartsome
greeting for you. 1t speaks ofcomfort,
good cheer, pleasant home and kind
friends, or perhaps OF bright hopes, OF
fortunes and famel but to the homeless
houseless and friendless its sound is
unmeanipg and strange.
Last night, however, the good ladies
who manage the Home, gave real in
depreciation Of the greeting to the little
waits, who have found refuge within
it's walls. The parlor was almost
filled with q fine evergreen brilliantly
lighted aud laden with pretty gifts that
delight the hearts Of children, and it
was worth the long walk through the
drenshipg rain and over the icy pave
ments, to see the looks of admiration,
and witness the pure happiness of the
little ones, when contemplating the
fairy scene, and the gifts that generous
souls had provided for them.
1t is really encouraging to the direc-
tors and managers OF the institution, to
see the evidences OF interest manifested
by the public recently. A sewing ma
chine, valued at seventy dollars, was
yesterday sent in by the Singer Sewing
Machine Compa ny, entirely unsolicited.
The workmen at the foundry Of Messrs.
Joseph Bell j. Co. sent a handsome
donation in money. These evidences
OF interest are most gratifying, illustrat.
ing, as it does, the generosity of our
people and their appreciation OF our in
stltution, that has everything in its de-
sign to recommend it to the benevo-
lent.
The directory will soon make per-
sonal solicitation for funds for it's sup
port during the year, and hope to obtain
subscription to the funds regularly
each year, and thus place the Home on
a permanent footing Weare confident
a Wheeling public will make the task
a light one by responding promptly and
literally.

. WHEELING FEMALE CoLLEeE.-This
superior institution for the education OF
young ladies is winning golden opinions
everywhere. In the last report of the
Commissioner of Education, General
Eaton, we find the following in regard
to it:
"This is q chartered institution and
is in q flourishipg condition, having
now I5S students in attendance. The
President Is Rev. William II. Morton,
A. NJ, an enthusiast in educational
affairs, and who conducts the ins,itu-
ton with vigor and credit, with twelve
assistants, under the auspices OF a
Board of Directors and an Executive
Committee. The edifice is well adapt
ed to it's use, it is in good condition,
finely situated and well provided with
chemical and philosophical apparatus.
Thirty students board in the college
building and the others reside manly
in the city Of Wheeling. The instltu-
ton confers the degree Of Mistress OF
English Literature, and to those who
complete the required course, bestows
a degree in the arts. 1t 10 unsectsrian,
