A GOOD STAGE
OF Water for Some Time is Assured.
Another Rise Comes Out Of the
Observation-Disclosures and De-
partures of the Packets---To.Days
Schedule.

Rivermen are in very happy frame
of mind over the rather unusual
August stage of water. Following up
on the recent rise, which enabled
Pittsburg coal operators to float the
coal accommodations of ten weeks to the
southern market, and enabled all the
big packets to resume operations,
comes the very welcome news that the
heavy rain of Friday night was gen
eral, and that the Monongahela is rls-
ing again, and the Allegheny is either
stationary or rising. The shipments OF
coal have nearly all been made, but
few boats are now on their way down.
Rivermen would not be surprised II
a navigable stage is now maintained
from this time throughout the fall. The
activity in Pittsburg is also boon to
the coal miners, all of whom are work
ing steadily to fill the empty barges IN
the pools. The fleet has met with
comparatively few accidents, ana
within few days will be on its way
back. All the packets are making
their regular trips, and all report very
good business.

mander they gave evidence OF the
greatest pleasure. The men assem-
bled in front of their quarters, and
the venerable Admiral addressed his
men in their native tongue. He con-
slauulated them on their appearance,
and on the reports OF their good be-
haviCr.
At the noon hour the visitors saw the
meal served, after which they were
taken to the officers quarters, where

At the Union Station several thou

room hundreds rushed at him like
foot ball players. They seized his

Soldiers at Camp Thomas Know Little OF
What the Future Holds in store for
Them.
Chickamauga, Chattanooga National
Military Park, Tenn, August l3.-l ne
men at Camp Thomas are now playing
a waiting game, none OF the ohclals
seeming to know exactly what IS IN
store for them or their men. Inc
regiments ordered to new camps nave
received no orders indicating When
they will get away, and the men g
other regiments have almost ceased
speculation on the disposition 10 De
made OF them. Meanwhile the regular
work goes on and all commands are
being as steadily drilled as when the
war began.
The news that peace had been de-
clared was received at Camp Tnomas
to-day. in various ways. Some OF the
more enthusiastic arranged small DEM
onstrations and celebrated the event.
Others plainly manifested their regret
that they would see no active service
after their long and tiresome training
here.
The majority seem to be harboring
hopes that they will be mustered out
and sent to their homes in the near
future.
The health of the camp has materi-
ally improved during tht last few days.
The main cause ef the improvement
is believed to 5e the removal and re-
arrangement. of regimental camps.
Nearly all the commands have moved
Il new ground admirably adapted for
camping purposes, and no two are as
close together as under the old ar
rangement.
1t is probable that another general
review of the army will occur before
any regiments are sent away. Many
requests fer the review have come to
Gen. Breckenridge. and it is believed
he will act favorably upon them.
