THE MIDDLE LEVEL FLOOD.

LYNN, SUNDAY Airricasoo.
The tides began to increase yesterday, and tt,
authorities are busily engaged in cnidging the tops of the
several banks in the neighbourhood, all they will contin ie
to increase till next Friday or Saturday, when higher tides
are anticipated that were the last "springs." The state-
ment as to the dangerous state of the Terrington banks
turns out to be correct, as workmen have been engaged
strengthening them. All the bargee have at length been ordered
from the neighbourhood of the dams that are in course of
construction. This has not been done till after consider-
able damage him been done by their being repeatedly driven
from their moorings and dashed against bridge, and dams,
&c. We have just returned from the sluice, and found
there about two hundred men at work. The principal
work being done is the coffer-dam, where pike about 4b feet
long are being driven, commencing at both sides of the cut.
If no unlooked-for catastrophe occurs to this work, and if
the proceedings are pushed on with alacrity, it is likely
that the coffer-dam may be completed in a fortnight or
three weeks. The earth-dam lower down the cut, and
upon which so much reliance was placed, was
being constructed by Mr. Huller, the Dutchman,
and that work has been positively abandoned. This has
been done by the order of the engineers. Several thousand
sacks of shingle have been thrown in, but the scour carries
these away almost as easily as the earth. Mr. 3dtiller's dam
had progressed to such an extent that at low water there
was only some tivefeet of water over it. It is intended to
try if stone can resist the power of the tides, aid two
thousand tons of stone have been ordered from Yorkshire,
The new sacks are nearly all used, and another order has
bean given for twelve thousand seeks to be supplied imme-
diately. Under the present arrangements, however, it is
not believed that much progress will he made. An extra
force of police have been embodied to protect property,
several robberies having been committed by persons in
boats, who have gone to the deserted farmhouses that are
partially under water and taken away articles. Thousands
of penises have visited the some of ostastrope to-day.
