The river at this point oontinucs, to recede,
with about four feet water in the canal. Tbo
gorgo ofico at Six Mile Island brokeup yester
day morning, and tho ico front it accumulated
ini the bend of the fiver opposite this city. " Our
despatches from Cincinnati and Madison, state
-that tho weathor at .those place? wps-quite warm

may therefore expect that navigation will bo
fairly resumed,in the conrse of a few days. _
’ A private despatch yostefday, from Nashville,
states that there were five feet wateronHar

Courier, January
Tho ice commenced -running very heavy on
Saturday morning, continuing up to tho hour of
going to presß last-night. i- ; .
A despatch was received from Lav>ronceburg
by Capt. Pratimau, ouSaturday night, annonnc*
iog tho river closed ot that point.

The Charleston .left for Memphis; but laid up
for the same reason, on reaching;Aurora,.
The ice gorged up the mouth of the_ Big Mia

the present. -The goTge:helow; caused the water 1
to risent thiapoint noarlya foot. ; ;
The lovco ■is thronged with boats, at. least
twenty five, several of which are partly loaded

; In consequence of tbo gorge no mail boat left
for LouisriUe yesterday.
. Despatches from Nashvillo yesterday, report
the Cumberland falling fast, witbfonr feetwater

■; Despatches from-St, Louis dissipate all pros
pects of any improvement in the navigation. Tbt
weather has turned cold, the river falling, and
the ice thick-and gorged at Merrimas.
The Tishomingo, from New Orleans, is expect

The wind blew a perfect gale along the river,
Thursday night, and tbc mail booit Telegraph No,

seconded by the peffleverauce' of her gallant
crew and'her powerful.engines, in
keeping her prow to the gale, and arrived at the
wharf in good time and perfect safety. p ,
The river woe lull of floating ice last night,
almost entirely closing navigation, even to the ]
ferry boats. Thirty steamers wero lying nlong
the levee, between Ludlow and Walnut streets,
but they made no signs of life. The halyards
rattled drearily'against the flag staffs; the fur
naces looked block ond fcoidf while a knot of
shivering stevedores—blacker and colder—look
ed hungrily over the deserted lauding,. kicked
their broad feet against o solitnry bale of cotton, |
and wondered “if the Orleans boats would bber
run again!”
The Duke, the .Falcon, the Argyll, and other
boats, ore nearly or quite: freighted, and wait
for the dubious January thaw. The Louisville
i mail boats will run ns long as powerful engines
will Sliova sharp bows throngh the ponderous
I cakes ut ice.— Cin. Commercial of Jan. 0.
The weather continues mild with indioatioue
of rain. During the twenty four hours ending
at dusk lost evenins. the river had receded three
inches, and was still falling. The ice has near
ly oil disappeared.
AU the regular packets were receiving freight
for the resumption of business, with light offer
ings for St. Louis, Nashville.and New Orleans.
The boats loading to-day are —Ben Franklin,

We learn that the Reindeer, Capt. Montgomery,

Capt. John Dales has purchased one half of

THE SAN FRANCISCO.
Wo find the following in the Baltimore Sonin
relation to the steamer Ban Francisco. It is
moro favorable to thosafcty of tho vessel than
at first reported:
The following 'interesting dispatch was: re*
ccivcd yeaterday by the Secretary of the Nary,
from Messrs. Aepinwall & Co., owners of the
steamer Sin Francisco:
New Tons, January Bth.—Mato of tho brig
NOpdlcon spoke the steamer San Francisco, De
cember 25th. lie gives a consistent and intel
ligent report, and states thnt Copt. Wattina had
plenty of provisions. lio had, however, light
ened the ship. There were no men at the
pumps.
The brig Napoleon was at the nearest point
within thirty yards of her, and saw twenty male
passengers on deck. The cabin, hurricane deck
forward and wheels were standing. The doma-,
ges to the steamer were merely in her upper
works, amid-ships. The wheel-houses were
gone, but the' wheels were entire, and both
guards in good order. The mate is sure that
the rudder was all right. The foremast was
gone above deok,but.the. mizzenmast, (an im
portant faet towards her safety) was standing.
Both smoke-stacks were entirely gone. The
hull looked to ho in good: order. The sea was
heavy with a strong night breeze from the north
west As. far as could bo ascertained the same
pumps Were working®'
The steamer was again seen on the 20th De
cember safe, with the drag out forward, and her
head to tho wind. The damages to her occur
red in the gale of Deo. 2i, which was intensely
severe, -
The Ban Fraholseo is insured In Wall street
for $BOO,OOO. It is BtatedthoQovernmentpaid
$BO,OOO for the conveyance of the troops to
their 'ports, of destination: Among those on
board, it is said, are a married daughter of Mr.
Ererett, and a married daughter of Judge Tanej’,
tho wife of Colonel Taylor.
We learn from the Washington Globe tbatthe
Secretary, of the Navy has directed two energe
tic officers of tho Navy, Lieutenants Gansevoort
and Boggs, to proceed in the Alabama, (the ves
sel chartered by the War Department for the
purpose of rendering assistanoo totho San Fran
oisoo,) to afford such aid and advice os their ex-,
pericnce and judgment may suggest. The Ala
bama, with coal sufficient to last fifteen to eigh
teen days, and fresh provisions for passengers,
sailed from Now York early yesterday morning.
The Globe'says:
The Secretary has also directed the Bloop of
war Decatur, now fitting for sea at Boston, to.
proceed in the search, if, in the opinion of the
commandant of the yard, she can bo of service.
Since the above was in type, wo learn that the'
Secretary of the Navy has directed the steamer
North Btar, at New York, to bo chartered, offi
cered and manned, and sent to the relief of the
San Fransisco.
