Gazing in of the Memphis
E,eVeG.

Tho pcrmancncy Of the whole upper portion
of tile city landing is very precarious at present.
From the f,ot of Adams street north; the cur
rent is ra ?ly cutting its way inland aud at
present there seems little progress of its being
arrested. In fact we are unable TO suggest
any plan ty,which the rapid cavng Of the
banks can be prevented without a tremendous
outlay OF mcuus. The mighty volume Of water
which rolls down the channel ofthc Mississippi
is not easily controlled. The current Which
is thrown Of from the Arkansas shore by the
projecting po;at of land above The site Of the
OIL town of uopehcl,!, is thrown squsrcly
acros; to the Tenncsscr side, striking tic aaOk
Just below the mouth OF Wolf river. When
the river is high the lcycc is rapidly cut away,
aud, at anv Stage of water, SO deep ha; become
the 'wasIl" that there is u continual nndcr-
mining Of the banks the inroatls of "Oll
Father ,,Iissssippi" is not TO be prevented from
.oiur whittier l,a will, and no power of lnau
can prevent him from doing 50. During the
Inst two years the bank has retrcatca inland
near one hundred yatisr More rhan fity
Yards Of The Ievee has disappeared during the
last wear. There is every appearance that the
whole level portion OF the wharf above Adams
street will be swept into the current of the
Mississippi within the next two years. All
the buildings on that portion of the river will
have to be removed or will 60 into tic river.
The aost of stepping this destru ,tion OF the
landing would be so much that it would he
more than the value of the whole lcvec north
uf Adams street. The landing will, doubtless,
soon be cleared Of building, not by process
of law, bnt by the mighty tide ofnatures own
creation. The bank has alrcady rctrcated to
within few yards Of the government store
sheds, and if it continues to advance the rolling
tide Of "OIl mississippi will flow over the
place where now the rush and hustle of busi-
ness is daily flowing to and fro. We have on

it. The extent of the wash can now be seen
