LeVee Reflections.
FIy-time......A very unreasonable low
temperature prevails. Our exchanges
from the upper country report very
heavy and general rains. A rise at
Pittsburg and Cincinnati is noted-a re-
suit of the TaiBs......As far as items are
concerned, the levee didn't reflect worth
a cent, yesterday THE body Of the
negro child drowned near Whites mill.
Monday evening, has not been recov.
cred yet, and the father of the child has
charged and entered suit against q ne.
gro girl, about fourteen years old, alleg-
ing that she pushed the child into the
river with intent to commit MURDER.
Travellers and shippers will find particu-
lars concerning departing packets to-
day in our advertising columns...T This
is the way the new arrangement works
at st. Louis, as chrOnicled by the Times:
captain T. w. Rea is painting up his
Belle of Shreveport. Some one asked
him on change, yesterday, when his
time to load came. He replied, 4 give
it up; it's too far in the fu-
ture; haven't commenced to fig
ure on it yeti - The Times
also contains the following items: 1.-THE
patent condensers on the City of Helena
have proved to be perfect success, and
the James Howard gets them put in her
when she returns from the south. Cap.
