EIYEKNEWS. STEAMBOAT PRINTING. No printing establishment in the West has better facilities or greater ability for doing fine Steamboat Printing. Our assortment of Job Type, though very large and complete, is constantly being added to, und our job department is under the personal supervision of one of the best job printers in the United States. We are prepared to grint Posters, plain or fancy, Bill Heads, Ills Lading, Cards, Deck and Meal Tickets, Bills of Fare, Mates' Tickets for Labor, etc., Ac. Orders left with either of the wharf-boats will be promptly attended to. River and Weather. The weather yesterday was clear for the most part, and hot in the sun. In the shade, at one o'clock, the mercury stood at 82. The River fell about eight inches during the twenty-four hours ending at three o'clock yesterday. Five to five and a half feet is as much water as can bo found on the shoalost bars hence to Louisville and Cairo. Arrivals aud Departure). The arrivals and departures since our last report, up to 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, include the Naugatuck, Cincinnati to Memphis; Phantom, Cairo to Evansviiie; Harry Dean, Me,.. hls to Cincinnati; Victor No. 2, Cairo to Louisville; Silver Cloud, with two barges, Cincinnati to New Orleans ; Newsboy, Henderson and return; J. P.Webb, to Clarksville; Sam. Orr, to Eastport ; Armada, to Cairo. Boats Due. Among the first boats due here are the JT. R. Gilmore, for St. Louis; Mary Erwin, AiW.ta Poe and Talisman, from St. Louis; Rose iite from Louisville; Dan. Able,

and Lorena, from New Orleans; Charmer, from Cairo ; Abeona for Memphis ; Advance from Cumberland River; Ada Lyon from Green River. Miscellaneous. Business on the levee yesterday was rather good, and shipments were more than ordinarily large ; and our wholesale merchants were kept unusually busy all day packing goods for shipments The hot weather lias had a tendency to make steamboat clerks lazy, and to endow them with a strange perversity to withhold items both of a loeal and narrative character; hence we miss many interesting items that we should be glad to publish. We have not bei sparing in our attentions to steamboat men and interests, and we will take it as a favor if they will reciprocate our efforts by furnishing us with manifests, memoranda, and such local and miscellaneous incidents as may come under their observation The Phantom arrived, as usual, on time, but we have no information as to the character of her trip. We hope Billy Conant did not get lost overboard The Naugatuck, Victor, and Harry Dean had good trips The Silver Cloud had a magnificent trip on herself and barges The Webb, Orr, and Armada were all getting good trips. We are assured that the reports of cholera on the steamer Harry Dean, on her downward trip, were unfounded It is reported that the Continental arrived at Cairo with 60 cases of cholera on board. It was said that some negro troops on board broke into the pantry and ate freely of sugar and drank ice water, producing cholera, and that 14 of them had died. Another report said only two had died. The reports of cholera are generally exaggerated, and it would be well for officers of boats to furnish a health report to the papers of the principal cities, as they pass. The landing below the foot of Main Street is again blockaded by coal barges. The famous Governor Morton, the Indianapolis and Broad Ripple packet, has been sunk in White River at Indianapolis, and, it is feared, will prove a total loss. Sic transit gloria mundi and Captain Sockwell. Bonts Leaving- To-Day. For Cairo. The sprightly little Phantom, Capt. Tom Boluss, will leave for Cairo at 2 o'clock to-day. She has elegant passenger accommodations. Thad. Con ant is her passenger clerk, and Billy alias " Sweet William," takes care of the freight For LoTJI3Vii.i.e. The queenly Rose Kite, a great favorite with travelers, goes to Louisville this evening. Capt Aaron Ballard, Geo. Peterson and Jesse Jackson, are her popular officers. For Memphis. Capt. Ed. Hart's splendid new steamer, Dan Able, on her first trip, goes (l Memphis, Vlcksburg, and New Orleans, to-day. She is represented as the finest steamer afloat. Capt. Ed. Hart is in command, and Dr. George O. Is in the office. Their many friends will receive a hearty welcome aboard. Fob Louisville. The Mary Swan may be expected from Cairo to Louisville early this morning. For Green River. -The Ada Lyon is the regular Green River packet for this evening, Capt. Alf. Edwards in command. Gleanings from Our Exchanges. Cincinnati. The Commercial of Monday says: The weatl r was warm and cloudy yesterday, At Pittsburg the yer is fallii.g, with 3 feet in the channel. The Kanawha IS falling, with 30 inelics in the channel. Here, the river has lallen 0 inches during the past 24 hours. There is 4 feet between here and Louisville, with S feet in the canal. , T., A The remains of the late Alex. M. Davidson were interred in the t umminsviile Cemetery, yesterday. Quite a, number ot Itewn boatmen were in attendance at the The wreck of the ill-fated General Lytle arrived here yesterday, from Madison in tow of the General Buell. It Is one of the r.mr,iHte wrecks we have ever seen. The Commercial of Sunday says: The bodv of Gracianna, the popular steamboat" landscape painter, who was drowned at the time of the General Lytle expToslon, was brought here on the Rebecca yesterday, for interment. Mr Nicholas, striker of the Rebecca, died with cholera on Friday. LOUI8VII.1.K. The Courier, of Monday The River was falling slowly and steadily veVterday with 3 feet ti Inches water in the cnal in tnlevening by the mark. During the previous twenty-four hours the decline had been only an inch at the hegd of the falls and some three inches at Portland. The weather was clear and pleasant Saturday but yesterday it was as oppressively hot as at any mc ; , thermometer ranging at 80 and upwards all day. . .. ,Qne. hnt ..Ivhtonn On Hie iaiis moo " p inches water in the pwnthe J"d.lan chute, last evening, and Uiat channel Just now is too hard.lntncate, and torturous for any steam craft to navigate. The Naugatuck, from Cincinnati, bound for Memphis, came into port last Saturday night, and at once took the canal ehute. Hhe had some trouble working th rough the canal, and yesterday ran hard and fast aground on the Portland and New Albany bar. That will make the passage out oyer the bar extremely difficult for any other craft, unless of extreme light draught.

to lighten over the bar. The cholera is prevailing to some extent in Cincinnati, and the Naugatuck, on her arrival at this port, had three cases on board. One of them, a deck hand, we believe, died while the boat was in the canal. The Damocrat of Sunday says: The report that Captain Liter has sold the Mary Ament to parties in Cinc'nnatl is false. The Captain thinks too much of her for that. St. Louis. The Democrat of Monday Bays: Navigation is difficult to all the Upper rivers. The rise, so far, had not effected the Mississippi as low as Keokuk. The Harry Johnson was aground some hours at Milhern's, and she left the Mollie McPike hard aground. The David White, hence to New Orleans, grounded thirty or forty miles below here. She is probably drawing TJj feet of water, and In many places more than seven feet cannot be found. It Is the opinion on the Rose Hambleton that she will not get out without heine lightened. This boat reports hut ui-r feet, of water in the channel at several places, but no doubt seven feet can be found, with care. The Illinois continues about as low as it ever gets to be. The decline continues here. Yesterday was probably the hottest day of the year. Business has revived somewhat. The Welcome was aground several times in the Missouri. Memphis. The Appeal of Friday says: Yesterday was cloudy and rather pleasant, but we fear that the favorable indications of rain have vanished. Business was tolerably brisk and the upper levee is covered with freight discharged by boats from above. . , , The river has fallen one foot since our last report, and is still going down. The rivers above are all falling. We learn from the officers of the Mollie Hambleton that when they passed Helena Tuesdav evening, a terrible riot was going on. A "negro regiment which had been hi-.niffht. there from Little Rock, for ship ment to the Indian Territory, were on the rampage parading the streets with their arms, and ordering all white citizens oil the sidewalks, and firing at them indiscriminately. A citizen named Benjamin Gilbreath, who had the temerity to return their Are. was beaten so badly that his life is despaired of. New Orleans. The Times of Thurs day says: The weather, since our last, continued about the same as on previous occasions excessively hot, and oppressive at times. Business on the landing yesterday was chiefly confined to the steamer National, which packet seemed to receive a good freight and a fair number oi passengers. She left at " p.m. for Shreveport.
