GREAT FLOOD AND TORNADO IN ARKANSAS
From Capt r. Houston, of the steamboat Trident,
arrived yesterday, we have the following hasty
particulars of tornado which occurred about the
22d inst, and of great food in the Arkansas river.
From the Pine Bluff to the Arkansas Post, a
distance of us miles, the river is frghtfully
hgh-being within very few inches of the great
rise of 1888 Destruction is along the whole course
plantations and fields under water, and OF
course the crops are all ruined. There were only
one or TWO places where boats could land
Besides this, violent tornado had passed over a
part of the country between the Bluffs and the Pos,
the particular point not mcntoned-whlch also
did much damage. Houses, fences, trees, and ev
cry thing in its course, were Frustrated all which,
with the ravages of the food present one vast
scene of havoc. It could not be ascertained whe-
ther there any loss OF life or not; but the prob
ability is, that several persons must have pershed
Groups of people and cattle were about on the
higher points of land, but no communication could
be had with them. We fear that we shall yet have
sad accounts from this quarter.

learn by private letter of the 18th lnst the river
was full to its banks, and anticipation OF an over
