'The following facts relative to effects of
.cold weather on the navigation of the Mis
sissippi River, we take from the St. Louis
Republican, of a recent date, as sufficiently
remarkable to spread on the record of cold
.weather:
Capt. Shebln.of the steamer Michigan,
baa favtred us with the following river
news. When the Michigan left New Or

have to contend with heavy ice, as the
weather was cold tor that lauiuae, aim iuc
peoplo were going muffled up in shawls and
cloaks as in mid w inter at the North.
The Michigan met ico fifteen inches
thick at Natcher, and stemmed it at that
point with great difficulty. She, however,
pushed along, breaking a wheel arm or
jbucketoccasionally. At Vicksburg the ice
was making very fast, and the river was
.almost impassable. The Michigan, how-r.l-nl
nlon slowlv against the ice
and current to Napoleon, at the mouth of
the Arkansas ttiver, wnere me ice uau ue
come so thick and heavy, and her wheels so
broken, that she was obliged to lay up and
await the opening of navigation.
c. . -nn.;lorahln distance below Cairo
the river is full of ice, moving slowly down

other cold flight would close it. There ia
no ice coming out of the Mississippi above
Cairo, the river being gorged just above.-
