Just after supper before the explosion,
: three gentlernen came up in the pilot house
and engaged in a conversation about relig-
ion and predestination. One Of them, a
gentleman from Warrentor, Miss, was a
strong advocate of the doctrine of predesti-
nation. He mentioned several instances
which he remarked had served to convince
him of the truth Of the doctrine. The cap
tain came up. while they were talking, and
conceded with the MissiSsippian, but re-
marked that he seldom liked to talk about
such things, and hoped they wonld change
the subject. The three gentlemen then
left the pilot house, and no one came in af-
terwardS. f.f.-.r .f f.-a.

of increased anxiety among holders to realize Mid.

close of the week now under review, seems to have
resulted more from the large purchase by the trade

be Coming from the Upper IissIsslppi-
Breaks In the Diamond Island Levee and
at WnterprOof-The Lower Tributaries.
The weather yesterday was mild and pleasant, with
cloudy sky. Business on the upper landing was
fair in comparison with the transactions for the few
days previous, while on the lower division of the
wharf shipments and receipts were alike dull Rates
are too unsettled to offer any definite quotations.
The river continued to rise slowly and very large
part of the lower landing was inundated. The St.
Louis Republican says that the old and experienced
river men there prognostcate great food from the
upper Mississippi in few days. Should the prophecy
prove true the ultimate effects the lower river must
prove disastrous in the extreme. We have thus far
refrained from "croak;ng," but the intelligence
received within the past day two is certainly of
most alarming character We learn through the
vcksburg True Southron Of the 5h that on last Sun.
day night the Diamond Island levee completed last
year, gave way about mile below the Castleman
break, and that in all probability, from the rapid
ravages it had made it is fully mile wide, and
sweeping everything before its wild and maddening
rush of waters. It will not be wondered that this
levee has succumbed when we state, that for some
time before it gave way, the river rolling over it,
and that the water Stood when the occurred

season. our ihends 10 Maolson' Iensas and Coneor-
