The MIssoURI-1he Prospect.-From the
ST. Joseph Herald of the LIST As we pre-
dicted IN our river article yesterday morning,
the river began to recede Thursday night, and
yesterday morning had fallen about five
inches. The Denver trains brought in the
news that heavy rise was coming down the
Platte, which is verified by the Kearney Press
in the following paragraph: The Platte River
is higher than it has been during the year.
and Is still rising. All the sand-bars in the
main channel are covered with water, and the
stream presents grand appearance viewed
from the bridge. A stream Of water like this
4100 feet wide, running rapidly, is worth
looking at. 1t is thought that the rise in the
Platte will again bring up the Missouri when
it gets into it. and thus it is probable that the
present high water here is not by any means
over. rs.. .-..4
The Keokuk Gate City Of Saturday says:
d" The river is coming up booming. Every
precaution is being taken on the part of Ma
jor Stickney and his corp of assistants to pre-
vent any damage to the Rapids improvement
from high water. A force of men are kept
constantly at work repairing and strengthen
ing the entertainments wherever they show any
signs of weakness. i
