RIVER ITEMS. ——— ARRIVED. Marmora St. Louis, Great Western, Cin'ti Kentucky, Louisv Silver Moon, do Wave, Cannelton. Lue Eves, S. Carrolton [sic] H. Fitzhugh, Mem Scioto, Louisville ——— DEPARTED. Marmora, Pittsb'g Great Western, N O Kentucky, Mem Silver Moon, Mem Wave, Cannelton H. Fitzhugh Cin'ti, J. H. Done, Wabash Scioto, Louisville. ——— ......The weather (Saturday) was pleasant, and business on the levee was extraordinarily brisk. The starting of the express line from Cincinnati to New Orleans has caused a complete revolution in freights at this place. The river was rising slowly on Saturday at this point, as well as Cincinnati and Louisville. At St. Louis the Mississippi was rising slowly. With fair offerings we quote freights as follows: To New Orleans—Apples, 50c @ bbl; Tobacco, $5 @ hhd; Flour, 50c @ bbl; pound freights, 35c @ 100 lbs; Eggs and Whisky, $l.00 @ bbl. To St. Louis —Pound Freights, 20c @ 100 lbs. To Cincinnati— ound [sic] freights (heavy), 15c @ 100 lbs; shipstuff @ and wheat, @sack, 15c. ......The neat little steamer <Alida> has gone to the bone yard. She has just been thoroughly overhauled, repainted and repaired at considerable cost, but all would not do. She was condemned on Friday last, and has given up the ghost. The <Alida> gave the freight which she had aboard for the Wabash to the <Done>. When this boat first came from Paducah she was just from the ways, and was considered perfectly sound, since which time she has received no injury whatever, and is considered, by a majority of our river men, to be equally as safe as half the boats which land at our port. We think this as great an oversight in the Inspectors, as the resolution passed by that body at New Orleans, which compels <passenger> boats to carry signal lights on each chimney, to ensure safety, while they leave the tow and freight boats to do as they please. They make no provision for that character of boats, but let them run promiscuous, doing all the damage they please, and sustaining them by law. Below we copy the resolution: <"Resolved>, That it shall be unlawful to navigate passenger steamers in the night time, on rivers flowing into the Gulf of Mexico and their tributaries, unless such steamer is provided with a red light in front, and attached to the larboard chimney, from six to ten feet below its top, and a green light attached the same way to the starboard chimney." A body of men who would deliberately pass such a resolution as the above, and make it a law for the protection of life and property, are not competent to say whether a boat is in a condition to run with safety or not. We wish our river friends to read this resolution closely, and see whether it is right according to their views. ......Some of the Pittsburg boats passing our port are paying only $20 per month for laborers, while the same class of men here are asking $40, and are not particular to ship at that, unless the boats arc loaded. Can't some of the men about Pittsburg and Wheeling get down here some way? There is plenty to do, and our steamboatmen say they would give them the preference. ......We were on board the <Autocrat> Sat-, urday and were surprised at the advance that has been made towards completion in so short time. Her wheel-houses are up, the cylinders in their places, boilers likewise, her texas extended back, her wheelarm in, and in fact she looks like a steamboat. She is the admiration of all who visit her. We were informed that steam will be raised on her in about three weeks. ......The Cincinnati <Gazette> says Capt. Stinde's new Upper Red River, side-wheel packet <Texas>, is nearly completed, and will leave for New Orleans early this week. Capt. Latimer's elegant mail packet <R. P. Cheney> built expressly for the Columbus

and Cairo trade, plying in connection with the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, is also nearly completed, and will be off for Cairo and Columbus to-day. ......The <Enquirer> seems to think the <Silver Star> accomplished a wonderful feat bypassing a small freight tub called the <Home>, which passed down on Friday last. We think that a pretty heavy "blow" for so little, as there is no comparison between the two boats so far as speed is concerned. The <Star> could pass her under any circumstances. ......The <Kate French> is the regular packet for Louisville this morning. She is a speedy and safe boat. Her officers are clever, rand make their guests feel at home. Be sure and take the <Kate>. ......The <Silver Star> is the regular packet for Paducah to-day at 12 o'clock. She is a good boat to travel on, and we would advise persons going in that direction to be on board. Our clever friend, Gus. Dusouchet presides in the office. ......The steamer <Great Western> came to our landing on Saturday, with only a partial trip of freight. She loaded here, taking among other freights, 2000 barrels of flour. She left Saturday night. ......The fine steamer Kentucky was here on Saturday, bound for Memphis. She received a number of small lots of freight. ......The hew steamer <Silver Moon>, from Cincinnati, came in on Saturday with a full load. She discharged a considerable lot of freight at this point. ......The <Henry Fitzhugh>, from Memphis, came up on Saturday afternoon, loaded with cotton for Cincinnati. She took coal at this place. ......The <J. H. Done> cleared for Wabash river Saturday morning, with a fair trip of freight and some passengers. ......The <Lue Eaves> came in from Green river on Saturday, with a big trip of freight and full of passengers. ......The <W. A. Eaves> has resumed her trips in the Columbus trade. ......The shipments of cotton at Memphis, on Saturday and Sunday, aggregated 6,578 bales. Our Vincennes Correspondence.

CraciMMAii, Ifeb. 16, 1868. Messrs. A. L. Scovill A Co. Gentlemen. I will with great pleasure gire my testimony as to what your Sabsaparilla and 8til Z.ING1A, or Blood and Liver Syt '-;, has done for me. Some three years and a half a,;o, I was attackec with a Scrofulous White Swelling, which was at tended with most excruciating pains. '. I tried Tari ous remedies, and had two of the best physicians the city (one of them a Professor in an Old Schoo Medical College), and they failed to give me any ro lief. I was so reduced that I was confined to my bed for over three months. The nerves and mus , cles of one leg were so contracted and drawn npv that I could not walls. I had more than a dozen running Mioses on my leg from which I took, from tinv to time, more than owe humlred piece of BOjX seme of them from three to fourinches long. was reduced to almost a skeleton, and mr friends had given up all hopes of my recovery. I was in this condition when I commenced the use of your Blood and Liver Fgrnp. I have used altogether some two dozen bottles of it, and at the same time the Iodine Ointment, which you advise to use with it ; and lastly, the Healing Ointment, given under the head o "White Swelling," is your directions. I aa now able to attend to okchm, and my legs have become so strong that I walk without any difficulty, attdhav entirely recovered my health. Yours, truly, MARTIN BOBBINS, Jr. Residence on Eighth street, between Mound mul John, No. 321; or at tho place of business, with Brown St Villette, No. 4 East Fourth street. Bead an extract from the Cincinnati MediealJnur nal, Vol. 6, page31u, by its editor, Prof. U. S. New ton, in regard to this remarkable cure: - "While Martin Bobbins was in the very worst imaginable condition, we were called to attend him, for a fracture of the leg, produced by a fall. The. indications of a reunion of the bone, nnder the circumstances, were very unfavorable, lor ho would, sit, day after day, piobing ont mall piece of bene, which would slougnvff. I found him using Scovilf preparation, which he continued to use until a cure wm effected. We gave him no constitutional treatment, being in attendance only as a surgeon ; yet we confess we had much curiosity to see what could be done iu a system no extensively diseased as his was." Will the afflicted call on the agent and get a pamphlet containing certificates of cure from woll known citizens of Cincinnati ? Recollect that this medicine is wrarautcd to cure nil diseases that are caused by an impure state of the blood. ScoviH's Blood and Liver Syrup is composed entirely of vegetables, and is perfeetly safe far Children to uset in case of sore mouth or eruption of the skin. If mothers value the health of their children, tbeyshould eradicate the seeds of.ttis disease before it is too late. - Bead the statement of one of the oldest chemists in Cincinnati.
