ST. LOUIS CORRESPONDENCE. The. Mississippi still cloted—The legislature visiting our City—Who shall be. Governor—Gntlemm Mentioned in connection with the. Office. — Col. IJissett , his Ojth, and his Letter accepting a. Challenge—lllinois Banks Excitement. St. Louis, Feb. 2,1857. The river at this point continues blocked up with ice.— The weather in the early part of the week was mild and pleasant, and a thaw was pretty general throughout the West, and the Ice on the river at this point became too weak for horses and teams, and since Wednesday last nothing hut pedestrians crossed. For several days past many ofthe steamers—-(there being-some twenty now lying at our wharf) —got up steam in anticipation of a general break up of the lea, but the last two or three days being much colder, the prospects for an Immediate opening of navigation, are not now so fluttering. The steamfioatmen have broken the ice loose from around tbeir boats, and those that had taken on freight before the river gorged, are discharging the same. They are hourly expecting a rise and hence a movement of the ice. The ice here is not near so thick and,heavy as last winter, but in the npper rivers it la said to equal that of last season. The general Impression is that not much damage will be done when it does break up. Business remains extremely dull. Thera is nothing of moment trauspiring In a local point of view. The City Council, in connection with the Chamber of Commerce, have extended an invitation-to the OoTernor, Lieut.

It lias without the ordinary appliance used for such purposes, won its way, and been heartily welcom ed to most of the citiesand towns in the Unitc-d States the Canadas, and the West India Islands. Nor is this result enrprising, when it is remembered that its popularity is based upon its merits, sol-iy as established by actual tests. That this preparation will actually RESTORE GRAY lIAIK TO ITS NATURAL COLOR, produce a luxuriant growth upon the heads of the bald, prevent the hair from falling off, and when used as a t:»il<*t articK produce a continual flow of the uatural fluids, and thus render the hair soft, glossv and wavy, destroy diseases of the scalp, and expel dandruff, the certitic;U<*s of distinguished gentleman and ladies, in every part of the country who have tried it. and therefore speak what they know, most, fully attest.

The Greatest Discovery of the Age.—lt seldom occurs, : that we notice, under any circumstauces, patent medicines, restorativet, or anything of tho kind, lor we have a preju dice against m- st of them. But candor compels ns to in vite attention to the advertisement of Prof. Wood’s Hair Restorative. We are too juvenile to require anything of the kind, but some instances of its use have come to our knowledge which almost assure us that it is a sovereign remedy against ihe hair becoming prematurely gray. It is not a “ Hair Dye;” but upon its application as directed, the effect is produced on the skin, which brings out the origin nal native colored hair, without stiffness, and gives it a glos syand natural appearance. We have seen persons who havo used it, and they are much pleased with it. —Missouri lit publican. 0. J. Wood k Co., 310 Broadway, New York, and 114 Market St. Louis, Mo., Proprietors. £. W.
