THE RIVERS AND WEATHER.
The river continues to decline here
as rapidly as on yesterday, the fall since
then being twenty inches. From all
points above we have accounts of heavy
and continuous rains, and there is a
better prospect for high water now
than for months. The Ohio is rising at
every point accessible by telegraph, and
at Pittsburg a coal rise is assured. The
tributaries below there are swelling, and
down below Louisville the side streams
are swelling rapidly. The Missouri and
its affluents, the Usage and Gasconade,
are swelling fast, and the flood of water
from each has reached st. Louis, and
will doubtless cause break there in the
ice to day. Heavy rains for two days
will assist the water, and by the middle
of next week, unless the weather turns
cold, we should not be surprised to
learn Of boats going through to st.
Louis. White river, the Arkansas, and
in fact all the lower streams are rising,
and navigation everywhere viii be re-
sumed in the South. The weather to.
day is clear and pleasant-quite an ac-
ceptable change from that Of the past
few DAYS.

The monetary situation has changed
but little since our last report, though
the demand is perhaps hardly as active
as it was a month since. The tendency
to-day therefore points in the direction
of more comfortable discount market.
This is partly the effect of the accumu-
lation resulting from the conservative
policy of the banks during the past
month in anticipation of January set
Elements Rates are steady at l0@l2
p cent. at the banks, and range from ! J
@9 p cent. on the street. Exchange is
in better supply generally, though some
$50 600 bank exchange was reported be-
tween banks at 81 W $1,000 discount, but
Notwithstanding that the First National
had taken $3.50, 1000 in cotton bills before
noon, and expected nearly as much be-
fore three p. m. Rates continue steady
at 9c discount on New Orleans, and &c
on Eastern points, aud bankers drafts
on all points are sold at par. Gold
opened at lll4 in New York, declined
&c, and again advanced to the opening
price. Dealers here paid lll@llls for
small and large amounts, including $4,000
at the latter rate. Local investments
usually dull when there is a close
money market-are entirely nominal,
and except small business in tax-pay-
ina scrips, dealers find but little to do in
them. State warrants are $4,000 buy
ing and selling, and county 93(995c.

The election yesterday was the most
uninieresting. so far as excitement was
concerned, ever held in the city. In
several OF the wards the candidates
made every effort TO rally the soyereigns
around the polls, but with little effect.
The vote was very light, our citizens
thinking more of business matters than
elections. The contrast between the
vote cast for FloAter and that cast for
municipal candidates was striking. II
proved that the people do not indorse
the poll-tax test as a prerequisite to
voting. Many believed that they could
not vote for municipal officers without
having paid the odious poll.tax penalty;
hence they failed to vote, and this fact
had much to do with the extraordinary
light vote cast throughout the city.

A LILLE WHILE.

Oh, ior the peace that howeth like a river,
Making life's desert places bloom and smile
Oh, ior The faith to grasp Heavens bright forever.
Amid the shadows Of eaFth's little while.
A little while for patient vigil keeping,
To face the storm, to wFosile with the strong
A little while TO SOW the seed with weeping,
Then bind the sheavos and sing the harvest song.
Alittc Wills the earthen pitcher taking
To wayside brooks from far-0iI fountains fed,
When the cool lips its thirst forever Stacking
May taste the fullncss Of is fountain-head.
little while TO Keep the oil from failing,
little while Faiths fickering lamp TO trim,
And then the bridegroom's comm footsteps hailing
To haste to hect him with the bridal ,mn.
And lie who is Himself the Gift and Giver
The future glory and the present smile,
With the bright promise Of the glad forever,
VIII light the shadows Of the little while.
