The River.
The old Mississippi is on regular ben
der. 1t seems bent on outdoing Noah's
Flood. It has nearly reached tho highest
watermark Of 1858, and is still raising At
the rate Of an inch an hour. The bulk Of
the water so far has come from the Miune-
sofa river, which is higher than it ever was
before. Many Of the towns along its banks
are completely submerged, and the whole
valley resembles vast lake. As our steam
boats are in the habit Of running near enough
to tho shore to keep in sight Of land, and
do not carry compasses,o or take reckonings Of
their latitude and longitude except by the
woodyards and whisky shops on the banks,
they are quite ''at sea- upon the Minnesota
now, and consequently they run into
the woods and get lost. 1t seems that
the steamer Fanny Harris and Albany left
st. Paul to take the troops from Fit. Ridgly.
Two days after their departure, the Favorite
started on the same mission and accomplish
ed the trip and only caughta glimpse Of the
Albany, which had run into the woods, and
never saw the Fanny Harris at oil. From
this we can conceive over what an extent
ofcountry the Minnesota is spread at present.
The St. Croix is also rising very fast and
will continue to swell the volume Of the
dark rolling tide" and then tho waters Of
the upper Missississippi, (which usually come
down about three days after those Of the
st Croix, will swell in on top Of that. The

pi and its tributaries, with the three or

CHANCES OF BEING KILLED IN WAn.-Marsha
SAKE, high authority in such things, was in the
habit Of saying that TO kill man in battle, the
mans weight in lead must be expended. A
Freuch medical aud surgical gazette, published
Mt Lyons, says this fact was verified at Solferino
even with the recent great improvement in FIRE
arms. The Anstrians fired 100000 rounds.
The loss of the French and Italians was 1000
killed, and 10000 wounled. Each man hit cost
700 rounds and each man killed cost 1900
rounds. The mean weight Of n ball is one ounce;
thus We find it required, on an average 212
pounds of lead to xii a man. 1t amy one of our
friends should get into military fight, they
should feel great comfirtin the fact that 700 shots
mny be fred at them before they hit, and 1900
bOfore they "shnille of this mortal coil"
