147% and closing at 149©149X,. There was
great excitement throughout the day, and
• the custom demand absorbed 6600,000, and
in addition'a leading banker was a heavy
buyer.: The shipment of 61,000,000 :of the
* Alaska purchase money also had some in
finance. as well as the fact that enormous
quantities of cotton are being shipped from
India to England, and which will reach
there simultaneously with ,our new crops.
, Loans of Gold were made at 3W, 4, 234 and
, /0 per cent. for mrrying and fiat for borrow

There were rumors some weeks since
that negotiations were'pending looking to
_ward a consolidation of the two rival Pitts

to entering the New, Orleans and Arkansas
river trade;
• ,
—Mr. James T. McCord has received the
appointmentp of Boiler Inspector at St.
Louis, in
_plebe of Mn 'Morgan, whose sui
cide we noticed a few days ago. He filled
.the position many years ago..
—An Omaha dispatch of the 2d says the

Captain Ball was among the pioneers of
St. Francis river. His landmarks ,to his
posterity are worthy of a place; t% family
and friends generous to 'a fault, prompt in
his dealings, and in truth an honest man.
'Peace be his; may the turf best lightly on
such as hia.
—A late St. Lads paper says: The' con
solidation of the N. W. U. (It Q. Packet
Companies was the grand theme of conver
sation on the upper levee yesterday, the
action meeting with' much approval and
some displeasure by the friends of both
organizations. The „Northwestern Union
Packet Company . will hereafter attend -to
all offering business between here -and
Keokuk, but will make no concession to
shippers not allowed and practiced' by the
marl line. -
-We clip the following front,-the Cincin
-neti Gazette, of Tuesday : Our dispatches
yesterday morning waked steamboatwen
up—especially those who had been expect
ing two or three months more of low water.
The. various packet companies had laid
their large steamers up, and were running
low water boats. To-day they witl begin
to put their own steamers on the track
again. Some of them, however, are receiv
ing paint and, repairs. Not expecting a rise
so soon, workmen - have been taking their
time., Now the cordptudes are caught nap
ping. The . Cincinnati, Big Sandy Oit Pomo
roy-Packet Company. however, will tie up
the Robert Moore and bring out the Tele
graph to-day, with the old officers and
crew. The . U. 8. Mail Company will also
to-day turn the J. N. McCullough and R.
R. Hudson over to their owners and bring
out the America and Gen. Lytle—the for
mer to leave Louisville and the latter to
leave Cincinnati this evening. The United
States is not ready for business. The
Maysville Packet Companywill accommo
date people residing on their line of navi
gation by brinaing out the St. James to
morrow. The Portsmouth packet Bostona,
and the Pomeroy and Parkersburg packet
irlbetwood, will be out in good time, in ex.
