Depreciation of Rev. Louis property.
--A gentleman recently from Rev. Louis, informs the Petersburg Express, that business in that city is completely prostrated.
Thousands of mechanics and laborers are out of employment, and as Fremont allows no one to leave the city, the prospects of these people during the approaching winter are truly appalling.
As an evidence of the depreciation of real estate, our informant states that some twelve months since a gentleman paid for 100 front feet of gRev. Louis, informs the Petersburg Express, that business in that city is completely prostrated.
Thousands of mechanics and laborers are out of employment, and as Fremont allows no one to leave the city, the prospects of these people during the approaching winter are truly appalling.
As an evidence of the depreciation of real estate, our informant states that some twelve months since a gentleman paid for 100 front feet of ground in a central part of the city, facing the large and splendid hotel recently erected there, $1000 per foot.
Four months since, 32 feet of ground adjoining the above- mentioned purchase, but more valuable from the fact that it was a corner lot, sold under the hammer for $1,169.50. A similar depreciation of property has taken place in every portion of the city.

Picture of Paducah, Ky., under Lincoln Rule.
--From the regular Cairo correspondent of the Rev. Louis Republican we copy the following picture of the present position of Paducah now in the possession of Yankee troops.
This is the condition that the venal press and tory representatives in the Legislature have brought Kentucky to by "loyal neutrality." An outraged people will remember the authors of the evils:
Here in Paducah considerable terror has arisen among the inhabitants, and thousands would leave if they could.
Household furniture is being constantly removed in skiffs and what other conveyance can be got, to safer points.
If affairs in Kentucky continue in their present state three weeks longer, the town will be almost depopulated.
Numberless elegant residences are deserted and stand silent monuments of blighting secession among the clustering vines and trees.
Society seems to have already fled, and gloom and horror taken possession.
Not a carriage is seen upon
Steamboat sunk in the Upper Missouri.
--By passengers who arrived yesterday morning from Sioux City, and who came across the State of Iowa, we have intelligence of the sinking of the Atchison ferry-boat S. G. Morrow, which left Rev. Joseph about fourteen days since for Fort Randall.
The news was brought to Stoux City by the stage driver from Fort Randall.
The boat is said to be sunk at or near the mouth of James River, and was loaded principally at Rev. Joseph by Dr. Burleigh, the Agent of the Yancton Indians.
Her load consisted of supplies for those Indians, and goods for the traders, together with some army supplies, shipped by the Quartermaster of the army in this city for Fort Randall.
No further particulars were brought by our informants.--Rev. Louis Republican, 13th.
