The river here is receding ut the

and now stands feet above low
water mark. AT st. Louis the river
is closed with ice; at Cairo the de-
cline was II inches, with 5 feet 2
inches on the gauge. Navigation
in the Ohio is closed, with the
river frozen over in several places.
The Arkansas is r%eceding, with 2
feet On the gauge at Little Rock,
and 80 inches from Pine Bluff to
the mouth. The White is falling,
with 3 feet in the channel from
Augusta out.
miscellaneous
Weather moderating, smoky and
foggy.
Throughout the Northwest the
weather is nioderating.
An early assumption of naviga-
ton in the Ohio river and between
Cairo and st. Louis is anticipated.
The coal runs from Pittsburg
and the lower Ohio will not be able
to come through until there is a
rise in the river.
The channel between here and
has shoaled down to y and s
feet, with heavy running ice as far
as Osceola.
The supply of coal is diminishing
and fears are entertained that the
stock on hand will be inadequate
to the demand; hence the dealers
have advanced their prices.
The Ohio is putting out heavy
ice at Cairo.
The two-mast sailing vessel,
known as a lugger in salt waters,
passed down last evening for the
gulf under full sail.
The CoahOma, White and Osceola
Belle got away last evening with
fair trips.
The tug Wild Gazell proceeded
on to New Orleans with her tow of
produce barges.
River business aince the freeze
up has been exceeding dull, with
movement in cotton or other
freights.
The John A. Scudder and Mary
Houston arrived at New Orleans
yesterday.
The Leopard, sunk in Rush
Tower bend, Is badly careened, and
will probably be a total wreck.
At Louisville the ice is thawing,
with prospects of the resumption
of navigation tomorrow.
No arrivals Or departures at
Cairo yesterday. Memphis is now
the head of navigation.
The harbor at st. Louis yesterday
was solidly blocked with pedestrians
crossing, and unless the weather
turns very warm teams will cross in
a day or two.
The Ashland, due up for the
Ohio river, has 500 tons of freight,
principally sugar and molasses.
The iron tug N. NJ. Jones, doing
Work on the leyee is being
