THE RIVER.
A Gradual Decline Expected.

The river opposite this city showed
symptoms of decline yesterday, and a
little moro so to day. The water level
at noon stood "a feet l inch and a
fraction above lowest mark, and 2 feet
8 inches scant below extreme high
water.
At Cairo a farther decline of nine
inches is reported, making the total
decline during the past eight days a
little more than four feet. The de-
cline at Evansville has been nearly
twelve feet since the lower Ohio began
to drop. No rains have prevailed in
that direction, or in any portion of the
Ohio valley, to cause the decline to-
check up in any degree.
AT st. Louis the river fell even
teen inches yesterday, and a rapid fall
may be expected there from this time
forth. The food of water above there
will not be apt to bring the river to a
stand again.
The prospect favors an early decline
of the waters here, and those who
keep on sounding the alarm of an i'm
pending inundation will have to wait
for more rain to fall, and if it don't
fall their predictions will not be worth
any more than old Tees, or Vennor's.
or Cowdon's or any other mans.

time usually begins in June or July,
but as it has been noticed thst the
carcasses accumulate too fast for the
scavenger in warm weather, it has
been thought best to thin out the
ranks before then.

mULEs ARoUr DtNNiNG.

The following rules about dunning are
proposed by veteran toiler of large ex-
perience in the art. They may be amend
ed to the readers liking;
/. Never give the idea that you call
because you happen to be In the neigh
borhood.
2. Never plead that you are In abso-
lutte need of the money.
s. Never explain why you want the
money further than by some general
phrase, as to meet outstanding bills. The
debtor is usually an expert in showing a
man how he can get along without money.
He will worst you in argument' and If
you lose your temper it is an excuse to
him why he should not pay.
A. Always be civil. however business
like and importunate you may deem it
necessary to be.
8 Never think you have done wrong
becausea debtor gets angry. His anger
under civil treatment, shows that he does
not intend TO pay. This you might as
well know first az last.
G. Show quite as firm q resolution to
get the money on your teuth cali as on
any previous one. or else it would have
been better il you had not made it
Z. Never leave O debtor without his
setting time when he thinks he can pay,
ard never fail 10 be on hand at the time
set,
8 As between yourself and nm en-
ployee, let the most business-like of the
Two make the dun.
8. Suggest installments. Shame the
debtor into making an arrangeanent to
pay something every week or every
month. If not $40. then S.. or So, or ST..
1t will convince him that you have set to
work IN earnest to get the money.
10. If q debtor gets angfy. or has
worn our PATIENCE threat TO attach his
salary may be effective. net so much that
he is likely TO fear you will get the money
that way, as that he will be anxious that
the affair shall not come to the knowl-
edge of his employer
IL. A similar effect may be produced
by saying you intend to place the bill in
the hands of a lawyer, particularly il you
mention lawyer whom he hates or who
has reputation for harvesting debtors.
Professional debtors, however, become
careless about legal processes:
IL. Drop into debtors favorite
haunis. 1t will make him very uneasy,
especially it, you don't hesitate 10 ask him
politely, but pltmpfy, for your money
on occasion. This may often happen
after he has displayed roll of bills.
