UPPER MssIssirpI.-The accounts from the
Upper Mississippi river are truly alarming. The
water is at this time higher than II has been
known for years. and We learn that at Galena and
Dubuque, and for one hundred and fifty miles be.
low, that nearly the entire bottoms are inundated
from bluff to bluff, and that great number oi
the inhabitants, on both sides, have been CON-
pclicd to desert their homes and remove to higher
and safer positions.
At Gaena, the lower portion OF the town, next
to Fever River, is reported as entirely deserted,
and the bridges across that stream are impossible
on account of the back water. Wood, fences,
houses, stock, &C., have been swept of, and pre-
perty 10 a considerable amount destroyed. AT
Galcna on the 22d the river was ,cceding little,
and it was thought had reached It's greatest hight.
