The Ogeechee and the Oconee rivers being closed by low water, are again open, to a certain extent—that Is, Umber and lumber can pass down without encountering obstrucUon. Steamer St. Helena—La3t evening many per sona were attracted to the dock, foot of Drayton streets on the supposlUon that another new steamer had arrived for the coast or up-river trade. An ex aminaUOn proved the steamer to lie the “ Beaure gard.” Her first name was the Ida, but a change of name was ordered by the Confederate Government. She Is now called the St. Helena. Capt. Cercopley has now a flne steamer, her upper works and pilot house having been rebuilt. The steamer St, Helena Is ordered to report at Sa vannah, having been placed In charge of oen.
