Weather blustery and gloomy with
rain this morning. The river here came
to a stand, and at Cairo and St. Louis it
is stationary. The Ohio is rising from
Pittsburg to Louisville. The Cumber-
land and Tennessee rivers are declining
rapidly. White river is bank full, but
stationary. Arkansas river is rising
again at Little Rock. In the bends be
low here the river is still rising slowly,
though there are no further breaks re
ported this morning The levees at
Friar's Point and DeSoto Front are all
right below Napoleon. The water is all
over the country, causing much distress.
The unfavorable change OF the weather
this morning, with the high Winds is
discouraging. The levee this morning
presented rather q quiet appearance
with little movement in freights.
