The markets in a general way present
but little that is really new or important.
There seems to t te a more cheerful feel
ing in commercial circles, and the feel

bony cy and activity which usually
preva I s at this Season of the year.

RIVER NEWS.
There hays:oBon. no arrivals since the
date of our last report with the exception
of the regular packets.
The Wild Duck and Lorena from St.
Louis, are among the first boats due.
The river remains about stationary at
this point with seven feet six inches in
the channel by the Monongahela marks.
The weather continues clear and cold.
The Savanna left for the Upper Misfits
sippi yesterday with a good trip, includ
ing quite a number of passengers.
The new steamer Carrie V. Kountz, de
parted for Port Benton, Capt. I. C. Van
hook in command. She has, we under
stand, engagementa below.
The Bayard, Captr GM Moore. Is
the regular packet for Parkersburg to
day, leaving promptly at noon.
The. Silver . Lake No. 4, Capt. Todd, is
announced for St. Louis and Missouri
River, forthwith. ,
The Messenger, Capt. Jesse Dean, is
announced to leave for the Upper Mis
sissippi this evening. She is an excel
lent boat, and offers superior induce
ments to passengers. •
• The Glasgow another good boat, Capt.
'Andy Robinson, Jr., is also announced
for the Upper Mississippi forthwith.
■ The Kate Putnam departed for pinata-
nati and Louisville, last evening, with a
good trip.
The America, Capt. James Hamilton,
takes her departure.for St. LopisAo.day,
and passengers and+ shippers- should
bear this in mind. Capt. A. S. Shepard
has charge of the office.
The. Carrie V. Kountz had 500 tons on
leaving here and 125 tons engaged be
low.
—The Emma and Mollie Ebert were
loading at Ciniennati, for Pittsburgh, on
Tuesday.
—The Annadillo, St. Louis to Pitts
burgh, wait Cairo on Tuesday, as was
also the Leonidas, from NOW Orleans.
—The Sallie, Pittsburgh to the moun 7
tains, also left Cincinnati on Tuesday,
with asplended trip. Pilots—James
Madison and John Kirkpatrick.
—The Maggie Hays, Pittsburgh to St.
Louis, left Cincidnati on Monday,Sull of
passengers and loaded to her utmost ca
pacity both boat and barge. Pilots—
Barney Clark and Chas Boyer.l
—The New Albany Ledger, of Monday
states that Capt. Stein, of the P. W. Sirs
der, had to pay. Jesse Mitchell, of Bed
ford, Ind., 1450 for keeping live stock on
board three or four days after the adver
iised time of the departure of 'the boat.
The Strader had agreed to take a lot of
100 horses at lower rates than the Vir
ginia, and after the departure of the lat
ter she laid over several days.
—The Cincinnati Gazette of Tuesday
says: •There was a report on the wharf
boat last evening, that the G. ;A. Thom
son, now on her way pare from Arkan
sas.river, with Captain Alex. Frazier in
command, had been sold to parties in
Lotilsville for $lO,OOO. It was further re
ported that Captain Frazier would take
command of the Lady Grace on - the ar
rival here , of the G. A. Thomson.
, •
—Captain Frank Hicks, of the Magenta,.
and Captain Nat. Green Of the Missis
sippi, are having a lively time over the
bell-rope prize offered by W. M. Wil
liams, Esq., of Vicksburg, Mississippi,
to the boat carrying the largest trip of
cotton into the port of New Orleans..
Hicks has forwarded a certificate from
his discharging clerk, stating that the
Magenta had the largest number of bales,
without mentioning the number, how
ever, while the Mississippi's books show
that she delivered 4,113 bales on the
wharf. From the present aspect of
affairs it would seem almost impossible
to decide which boat is justly entitled to
the prize, and it is more than likely that
a little swearing will have to 4 be resorted
,o,
—St. Louis advices of Monday report
as Mows; The Kate Robinson brought
a large load of passengers and full
freight. All Cincinnati boats arrived
here heavily laden. Captain Davidson
has arrived here, and roports the com
promise between the Northern - and
White Collar Lines consummated.
When the river opens to Dubuque, the
White Collar boats will run in the St.
Louis and Keokuk trade. The White
Collar Line will fix rates from Dubuque
to St. Paul, and the Northern Line fix
them below Dubuque, each !Line adopt
ing the tariff of the other. I Large car
goes of grain and other produce are com
ing out of the Illinois river. Several
barges with wheat and corn in bulk, for
New York have already arrived here,
and quite a number of others are to, fol
low. The trade of that river promises to
be very large this season.
—The St. Louis Republica?? thus sav
agely "goes for" the Richmond's Head
light: Some one has sent us two marked
copies of a dirty, scurrilous little sheet—
published on the steamer Richmond—a
No-called packet between touisville and
New Orleans, known as the "Richmond's
Headlight;" the copies' mentioned are
dated off Memphis. MarchlOtti, and Om
tain three low flung slings at St. Louis
[ steamers, one of which is intended for
the Ruth, and another for the Great Re
public. Mr. Will. L. Visacher, editor (!)
of the Headlight, may think it bare wit
to pen such articles, but when gentlemen
read them, the natural 'inference Is
drawn that the author in quite the re
verse
of either a wit or a gentleman. It
is not to be supposed that either Captain
Neal, commander, or Captain Woolfolk,
chief clerk of the Richmond, indorses,
any such conduct on the part of an at
tache to their boat; yet they will meet
with their shareof censure. The steam
ers alluded to by the Headlight have an
established reputation on Western wa
tens that, in every respect, is equal, and
in many respects, superior to that estab
lished by the much vaunted and so
called "low-pressure thirty-five pound
steamer." ' - I
