CINCINNATI, May 26, 1843
River Intelli,Tencp.—The River is still
falling gradually. Eight feet water in ihe
channel.
Steumbont sunk.
The American of yesterday says—"We
regret to state that the steamer Warren,
returning from the Great Western, struck
a rock in Nicholson's falls, by which sev
eral ocher timbers were broken and a plank
torn off her bottom, which caused her im •
me iiately to sink in eight inches of water.
The pa<sengers were all saved, though
one I,r two women at the moment of alarm
were forjumping overboard and—breaking
their ankles. The captain with great pre
sence of mind had the boat immediately
carreened over, the damage repaired and
arrived here the same evening, having been
detained about four hours.
Capt. B. Ford will leave in the course
of a few days, with a steamboat hull la.

as soon as the rivet rises, which will be af
ter the wet rain or perhaps, sooner.
