THE RIVERS AND WEATHER.
A rise OF one inch in the Ohio at
Louisville is the only change for the
better worthy Of note in any of the
streams above or below, and with that
exception all rivers and creeks are fall
ing. Here the decline since our last
report was four inches, the water level
being ten feet one inch above zero on
the gauge. The latest boats in from
above report a channel depth of nine
feet at Osceola, and the sand washing
out fast, so that within day or so the
heaviest laden boats can pass there in
safety. The weather is clear and hot,
notwithstanding that very heavy
shower Of rain fell this morning, lasting
an hour or more, and was accompanied
by vivid flashes of lightning following
each other in rapid succession and with
loud and long peals Of heavenly artillery
that made even the foundation Of the
city shake. After the rain had ceased
the sun came out bright, and at the
start increased the temperature from 7O'
tOsO0.
