MONDAY OCTOBER IS
THE FUNNY CORNEE
BEFORE THE RAIN.
We knew it would raiD, for all the nisrn
A spirit on slondcr ropes of niijt
Wu lowering its golden buckets down
Into the vapory amethyst.
Of marshes, and swamps, and dismal feBS
Scooping the dew that lay in the flowers,
Pipping the jewols oat of the sea,
T- sprinkle them over the land in showers.
We knew it would rain for the poplars showed
The white of their leaves, the amber grain
Shrink in the wind, and the lightning now
Is tangled in tremulous skeins of rain.

F. M Wages, you rascal? Quart of
corn a day, and three shirts and panta
loons a year, for legal hours of work ;
fourteen hours a day for half the year,
and fifteen the other half.

A New Crinoline. The London cor
respondent of the Belfast (Ireland)
Nem Letter says: A tradesman in Pic
cadilly has made an astounding discove
ry. As a benefactor to mankind the re
sult of his researches entitles him to
take rank with Coperncus, Galileo, Hun
ter, Newton, r niton, Watt, Stephenson
Davy, or any (or all) the
philosophers
who have surrounded their names with a 1
nimbus of glory. This distinguished
person has met the want of the age.
He has discovered a crinoline which
won't get into eccentric or unbecoming
angles when ladies get into omnibusses
or press through crowds. The article
in question is called the " Ondina, or
waved jupon," and the inventor thus de
scribes its wonderful properties: " It
does not sway with the unsightly results
of the ordinary hoops ; and so perfect
are the warlike bands, that a lady may
ascend a steep stair, lean against a ta
ble, throw herself into an arm chair, pass
to her stall at the opera, occupy a fourth
seat in a carriage, without inconvenience
to herself or others, or provoking the
rude remarks of the observers, besides
removing or modifying in an important
degree all those peculiarities tending to
destroy the modesty of English women ;
and lastly, it allows the dress to fall in
graceful folds." To be able'' to
modify in a peculiar degre9 all those pe
culiar tendencies to destroy the modesty
of English woman " is itself a magnifi
cent achievemnt. for which the inventor
deserves a statue in Trafalgar Square
and a monument in the Soho Bazaar!

There is news at last ol a rise coming
that will improve navigation. The rise
ii small however.
At Cincinnati the river had risen over
a foot up to Saturday noon, and it was
rising at Lonisville. witli three feet water
on rortland oar.
The Pioneer, a very pretty low water
boat, passed down yesterday on her
ma den trip.
The Colossus arrived hre on Friday
night, and returned to Louisville.
The Deleware broke some of her ma
chinery and was, consequently, detained
at Louisville. She may be expected to
leave for Louisville at noon to-day.
The Huntsman lef Saturday afternoon
for Cairo, with a big trip.
The Colonna will be the regular mail
and passenger packet for Cairo to-day at
noon. She is very light, and under the
careful guidance of Capt Tom. Bolus,
will go through without detention.
The Cordelia Ann will leave for Bow
ling Green this evenin r.
We were pleased to greet our "gay and
I festive" friend Jim Cox, of the mam
moth wharf-boat, on Saturday, just re
turned f 5m a visit to the paternal man
sion and the scenes of his boy-hood
davs, where standing on his native hills,
he breathed the pure air of heaven and
shot the grey squirrel from the sturdy
oak. fcHe returne looking like a giant
refreshed, and will again be found at his
post ready to receive and forward for all
his old friends, with a promptness and
ooliteness no wise abated.
The Cincinnati Commercial of Friday
says:
Information has been received at Madi
son, that there is a plot on foot to burn
the new boats building at that point. We
are informed that the incendiary ring
leaders are " spotted." We find the fol
lowing in the Louisville Democrat of
Wednesday:
Owing to the large number of steam
boat disasters on the Western waters of
late, and the discovery of a plot to burn
all the shipping on the Western waters,
all the insurance offices in this city have
given notice that they will insure no
more on any steamers navigating the
Western waters. They also refuse to in
sure any goods that are shipped on such
steamers. This will have the effect, to
a great extent, to prevent shipments;
and, owing to the extra risk that the
shipperand consignee will have to run, all
goods will, no doubt, greatly advance.
The Cairo Democrat of the 8th says:
The War Eagle brought up the fam
ily of Gen. Sherman, also the body of
his son. Her Captain was arrested by
the Provost guards for not heeding the
guns fired at him on his down trip, but
we hear that he soon satisfied the author
ities that he did not know whether they
were fired at him, and was released.
Boats from below report 4 feet 2 inch
es at Point Pleasant
To St. Louis we have 4 feet scant.
Here the river is falling slowly.
The New Albany Ledger of Friday
says :
Capt. Bunce's pretty steamer Big Grey
Eagle is watching the weather, and as
soon as there comes a swell in the river
she will cut a swell of her own, having
put on a neat white dress, that she will
scarcely be known, even by her warmest
friends and most ardent admirers.
Important Steamboat Order. Gen.
Schofieid of St Louis has issued the fol
lowing important order touching steam
boats :
GENERAL OKDKRS NO. 114.
For the greater protection of trans
ports from danger of loss by tire, it is
ordered: First, That every steamboat
navigating the waters of this Department
(except ferry boats, and boats lying up
lor repairs) shall, at all times, keep a
.vateh of at least tour men on every boat
of not exceeding 400 tons measurement,
and six on all boats of greater tonnage,
two of whom in the first, anil tlu-ee in
the latter class, shall be at all times on
duty, one on the boiler, one on the main,
unci the third on the hurricane deck, and
OOBtiMtllf paaaing over their respective
ilrnks until relieved, and all boats lying
up for repairs shall keep a like watch of
nl IrnNt four men. Said watchmen to
