Ifamen se Inundation OF the Rhine-Seventy Villages
Submerged.


Immense Inunda,ion OF the Rhine-seven,y Viliases
Submerged.
ROTTERDAM, March /.
Accounts from the provinces Of Cumberland
and North Brabant, state that i'll consequence OF
the driving ice Of the rivers having fixed itself
in various points into barricades, vast quantity
of territory lies now entirely under water. As
many as seventy villages are submerged: and
when it is considered that the inhabitants Of these
villages are mostly of the poorest class, some
idea NAV be formed of the great distress that pre-
yails and will for q long time prevail among
them.
Since 1920 such foundations have not been
known in Holland. At Arhhem enormous dams
have been constructed in all haste to prevent the
entire town being submerged. The khenish iail-
way will it is unprecedented, become impossible.
In the villages OF Tcnccn,aal the water covers
the tops of the houses, most of which will be
left undermined and III ruins. In most places,
however, the water has simply overlooked the
dams. which have hitherto resisted the pressure
of the accumulated waters. In those districts,
should the damage continue to be so limited, the
consequences will be but temporary: but in some
cases the dams are broken, AMI the water has
burst into the adjoining lands with fatally ire
sistible power.
In these distr t, the consequences will be OF a
very serious character: vast quantity OF land
will be thrown out of cultivation for many months,
and vast numbers of laboring thrown out Of
employment. Many cattle have been drowned,
but in consequence of the excellent precautions
used in signalizing to the people the moment of
positive danger, comparatively few Of our fellow
creatures have lost their lives by these lamenta-
BILE causaitics. a telegraph message has just
arrived from Bots -lc- Due, TO the effect that
of the dams in the neighborhood has given way,
and that the others expected to give way, and
that great part of the city is entirely under water

INTERVIEW BETWEEN Mr.. VAN buren, AND LOUIS
NAroLEoN.-The Paris correspondent of the N. Y.
Herald furnishes the following gossip:
The arrival Of Ex-President Van Buren,, has oc
casoned fresh manifestation of the conciliatory
policy towards which the Emperor of the French
seems inclined in his relations with the Great
Power of the West. On Saturday, before the
arrival of the cx-Prcsident had become known
at the American legation, missive was
received there from the Tuileries, inviting the
successor of Gen. jackson to an interview at 6
O'Clock the following morning. Messengers were
at once despatched to the various hotels, and to
the hotel of Mr.. Mason, but only an accident at
length revealed the whereabouts of Mr.. Van Buren,
at 10 O'Clock Saturday. MIR. Piatt having
found him at the Hotel Wagram, hurried to the
the Tulleries to state the facts, and also of the
impossibi!ity Of dressing the ex-President up in
court costume at such short notice. ''Let him
come, if he wishes, in his travelling Dress" said
the Emperor, who, rs have frequently taken
more pains than it is perhaps worth to mention,
cares less for buttons and gold lace, where an
American is concerned, than certain s stcklers for
court costume imagine. The two ex-Presidents
lis not Napoleon III, also an ex-President of a
Republic y held long interview.
