The Allegheny river seemed to. be at a
stand last evening with a little over twenty
.two feet in the channel by the Suspension
Bridge Marks. At Oil City, however, it
was reported at three p. m. with seventeen
and a half feet in the channel, and twenty
feet at Brady's Bend. The 'Monongahela

Was' reported rising slowlyArith twenty-one
and a half feet by the • pier mark. The

towards evening; it seemed to be clearing

Scarcely a day passes but an acci
dent is caused by this public' nuisance, and
it is high time that some measures were
taken to abate it. It is misafe;both in high
and low water, and it—is probable that the
damage sustained by the . coal "trade alone,
will aggregate . more -in dollars and cents

.A 'crazed woman
appeared at the staging of the Argosy, on
Saturday, well dressed and apparently in

'Maid. At, first Captain. Vandergrift in
formed her that no such situation could be

'
man who accompanied her making signs to'
indicate that she was deMented, he con
cluded to humor her whim, and. informed
her that a situation would be open next
trip; and that she conld have it. She then
requested a card of the boat,Whielithe Cap
tain was unable to furnish, as he had not
learned the necessity of such; but the gen
tleman who :ateoinpanied her, and wile
proved after Wards to be her husband, earn
estly. requested .that the card of smite
steamboat Should he given her in order to
give her mind rest for the time. An old
card of the Telegraph was lninted - up there
tore and no doubt the officers of that boat
will be astonished ; next' trip, to find that
they have engaged a new chambermaid.
Sickness in the family of Capt: Charles
Beers, prevented him trout leaving the

pilot of the Arniadillo in his place.
The Evansville papers say, that Mr. C.
