sword in a:rage. The slaughter among
the Mexicans was bloody indeed, and

. From the Memphis Appeal, Extra
DIsASTROUS FLOOD IN RED RIV-

En-
A slip from the office Of the Washing.
ton (Ark.) Telegraph dated Sd inst,
conveys the following painful intelli
gence.
II becomes our painful and melancholy
duty to record one Of the most fearful
and calamitOus disasters that ever befel
our Red River country.
In consequence Of the falling weather
or the melting Of the snow in the moun<
Iains, the sou Tces of Red River have
been supplied 30 abundantly with water
that our hitherto quite gentle stream
has been so flooded that all Of its bot
toms lie buried beneath the heavy mass
Of moving water; whose appearance was
so sudden and rapid that Il has borne rsist
less down every ves,ige Of human indus
try, cotton bales, cotton presses, corn.
cattle, horses, hogs, &c., in one wide and
gen eral ruin.
In common with every stresm OIL the
globe, Red River has been subject TO Oc.
casional but partial lnundatiOns, but dur
ing the period Of half a century, there
was never known such in overwhelming
food as that with which we are now visit
ed.
AT Fort Towson on the 25th ult., the
river rose fifteen feet higher than ever
before known, spreading over the whole
bottom, destroying the ware house at the
public landing and sweeping in one com.
mon grave all species Of animation.
From letter, politely furnished US, il
appears that JOnesbOrOugh, Rowland, and
Berlin, in Texas, have been wholly inun.
dated, some ofthe houses washed away,
and many of the inhabi tants drOwned.-
The letter further states, that some ne>
groes escaped from Jonesboro' on raft,
and when passing the residence Of Col.
James II. Johnson, they saw him, with
bis family, on the house top, but could
render them no assistance; and soon al.
passing, they heard crash and one wild
scream, and all was silent uEaiA except
the roar Of the rushing torrent.
Amid the general distress, Capt.
Crooks OF the steamboa at Hunter proceed.
ed to Mill creek. and rendered the suf.
lereTs every possible succOr in his power
going from place to place, picking up
the survivors from the tops Of the houses
aud trees; thus rescuing from the waIery
grave some seventy.ive or hundred
persons. Some we're necessarily lefl
10 perish In the cane and timber, as there
was no possible way Of reaching them
their cries oElen being heard above the
mise Of the element. Six families Of
Indians, Ia miles this side Of JonssbOr.
Ough, are reported lost, and Col. Milan,
Of Ky, with a lady, his niece, and : MI.
periahed.
II is thought that over hundred lives
haVo been lost between Fulton and
JonesborougL- how many, we as yet
cannot with certainty predicate, as our
will not always justify im..
PliCt belief. Owing to toe great number
Of settlers on the bottom Of Red River,
the loss Of property and human life must
be immense; yet we would fain believe
not 90 great ss 10 generally reported, for
we hope that the accounts given US have
been exaggeFaIed.
The river is still rising, but very slow.

KENTUCKY,

The Lexington papers seem TO think
the relief measure, settled. Right glad
are we to hear It. The credit Of Ken.
lucky is now good; but had she re-chGr.
tered meU banks, and passed relief or stay
laws, il must have suffered. And yet on
higher grounds may we congratulate this
State. For never yet did any Govern
ment resort to this kind Of legislation
without weakening the stability Of the law
and iniuring the morals ofthe people, It
is short sighted policy; a wrong policy,
and honest men, on all sides, ought 10 res
