The Plaquemine Sentinel of Saturday last states
that the river at that point was running over the
banks and rising at rate that threatened great
overflow. The same paper gives an account of de-
structve fire in Plaquemine on Wednesday last, and
says:
The principal buildings destroyed are the livery
stable, the Four Nations" boarding. house and
coffeehouse of Mr.. Mark the store and outbudngs
belonging to Mr.. Richie, where Mr.. Blum had but
two days previous opened large stock Of groceries
the outbuidngs attached to the dwelling Of Mr.. Vic
tor Donas together with the house occupied by Ber
nard Marks blacksmith shop.
The maTkethouse, Just opposite the coffeehouse of
Mr.. Mark, and the dwelling of Mr.. Donas, were two
or three times on fire, but were eventually saved
from total destruction
The loss of buildings cannot be much short of
$4,000, and falls principally upon our friend Mark
The Pointe Coupee Echo of Saturday last am
nounces that the river at that point was over the
banks and still rising The Bayou Sara Ledger fur
nishes similar intelligence
The Shreveport Southwestern, Of Wednesday last,
says:
The river, having risen some inches higher than at
any time since lS49, commenced slowly receding
Monday evening.
The Alexandria American, of Saturday last says
The river still continues to rise at the rate of about
six inches in twentyfour hours. 1t is now within
about eight inches of its height in February last The
steamer Duke arrived here this morning from
Shreveport and confirms the previous report of the
state of the water above. The country above and
below Shreveport is nearly all under water, and an
additional rise of eight feet at Fulton reported. The
officers Of the Duke state that the river at Shreve
port is on stand but there was no hope Of its fall
ing at present.

The Galveston Civilian, OF Saturday last, says
The cotton market opened languidy this week in
consequence of the accounts received at the close of
last. Only some 600 bales had been sold up to Wed.
nesday, when the market rallied, and abont 1900
bales were taken at l05 to lie per pound for Mid
ding. The news received yesterday is regarded as
favorable but we have no transactions based upon
it to note, and consequently again omit quotations.
The News has the following paragraphs:
fisherman named Derive was drowned in the
squall on Monday night week. His body was found
floating about in the bay, and an inquest held by
Coroner Hannay, last Sunday morning.
During the severe storm on Monday week two lit
tie boys one about g. the other about IL years of age
were struck by lightning in field near New Salem,
in Rusk county, and instantly killed.
The Houston Telegraph of Friday last says:
As we get further into the season, our business
grows better week after week. and since our last re-
port we have had a good trade, and all the activity
in business baunts that we could not expect. Our
merchants continne to receive new goods and are
now fully prepared for spring business the bulk OF
which is still before them. Every boat brings up a
heavy freight of merchandise.
