FROM THE MISSISSIppI.

1t appears that on the sth inst. the dam at
the upper end of the canal at Vicksburg gave
way before the immense pressure OF water,
and the canal was speedily filed to overflow
ing, the men who were at work being com
pelled to take prccpitate flight. When it
broke there was difference OF eight feet be-
tween the bottom Of the canal and the surface
of the water in the river.
The violence Of the torrent as it rushed
through, sweeping away wheelborrows, plank
sragings and all the implements Of labor, was
terrific. A wave OF foaming, angry water
rush like an avalanche along the whole legnth
Of the eanal--a mile and quarter. The
canal itself was full in few minutes, and
the water began TO spread in a few hours
there was not a spot Of dry land on the penin-
sula except the narrow pathway OF the levee
which surrounded it, and by noon there was a
lake of over thousand acres in area, where
in the morning there had been as many acres
Of land.

Benton Democrats. Mr. Noel therefore en-
tered the seth Congress as a Democrat; but
upon the breaking out Of the rebellion he
took decided ground for the Government,
and has since acted with the supporters Of
the Government in all their boldest measures,
supporting the confscation act, the emancips-
tion bills. and the conscription act. In short,
in endeavoring to act like patriot, he found
himself acting with the Republicans. In this
course, his people supported him, having re-
elected him to the 37lh and 3Sth Congresses.
