Floods In Louisiana-Suddenne of the
Overfow-Painful Sights.

The Carroll La.) Record of April 9th.
which is published near Lake Providence,
says
On Wednesday of last week, between II
and 2 clock in the morning, the leyee in
| front of the town either gave way or was
Intentionally cut (there are different opin-
ions about the matter, for at II O. clock it
was apparently safe. At o'clock when
it was discovered, the water was running
through the break in volume about ten
feet wide-and so swift was the current,
and so rapidly did the water increase in vol
ume, that nearly the whole town was uuder
water before the alarm could be given, and
it was actually in the houses Of some before
they barely had time to realize the fact that
the levee was broken, while by six O'Clock
the highest part of the town was four feet
under water. Relief was given as quickly
as possible by the citizens Of the country
around, and by II o'clock nearly every one
was moved cut Of the water There was
OF course much suffering and considerable
loss, as Is always the case on such occasions
1t was sad sight to see so many women
and children deprived Of their comfortable
homes.
The Tensas LA. Gq-ctte draws the fol-
lowing gloomy picture of the condition of
affairs in Tensas Parish:
The only meat to be had for a reasonable
price is venison, the high water having
driven the deer out Of the swamps TO the
knolls, where they are slaughtered BY scores.
Other artlcals of consumption are very
scarce, and prices fabulous. The COWS
can't be MIXED and the hens have no dry
places to make nest in !; consequently eggs
and butter are out of the question.
Of Indigenous vegetables there are none.
Corn sells fo- sl.50 bushel whiskey of
the most abominable description is retailed
at twenty-five cents per glass. Even green
backs are scarce, aud there is not piece Of
gold or silver, not even nickle in the town,
to toss up withal, for the drinks. Hoop
skirts are at discount since locomotion
has necessarily been dispensed with, and
they are not at all becoming in skiff or
pirogue, such being the only vehicles used
TOR purposes of visiting and making busi-
ness calls. The negroes are all washed out
OF house and home, and are preparing to
emlgrate. There is not dry land enough in
the vicinity to bury the dead in even, and
those who had long since retired to what Is
generally considered the last resting place,
after llfe's htfhl fever, are reused from their
abode.
The Gazette adds, that cofin on the
river levee opposite Judge Farrer' house,
became diSlodged by the restless surges and
tloated down the stream to find some other
burie spot, and says:

IMPORTANT LAW SUIT.-It will be re-
membered that little over two years ago,
a wagon containing express matter was
robbed of package of $4,000 between
Sheboygan and this place. The money be-
longed to the First National Bank, the Of
fcers of which have attempted to settle the
matter with Mr.. W1NDIATE, proprietor Of
the Express line, but without success. The
Bank finally commenced suit against him,
which was to be tried this week in the Mil
waukee Circuit Court, the case having been
removed from our Court by the defendant
on affidavit of prejudice Some of our
lawyers and citizens are now in Milwaukee
as attorneys and witnesses to the case.

Mr.. ZINNs introduced resolution fixing

WALLAcH are, or have been connected with
newspapers in this village, and are or have
been considered "dead heads" on Coop

Our business men will attend to this mat

matter whether the picayune men like Lyon
and Hallach, agree to it or not.
It is much regretted by good men of all
parties that Messrs SMART and SCHUErrE
should have voted against the proposition,
as they have always been looked upon as
intelligent, wide awake, enterprising and
liberal citizens. We hope they will change
their opinion, and sustain their good repu
tation.

Mutiny of Colored Troops.
From the San Antonio (Texas) Herald
April 10.

April 10.
About noon yesterday our city was
thrown into great excitement by the rumor
that the United States colored troops sta
toned at San Pedro springs had mutinied
and killed several of their officers, and also
that the war had been carried into Africa.
many OF the negroes were killed. There
had been hurrying to and fro among the
military stationed in that city, and they
were soon off at the double quick. The
rumors continued growing in number and
varying IN details, until there was no way of
getting at the truth without going to the
seat of war, and we went. We found one
officer lieutenant Griffin, we understood
the name to be-lying mortally wounded,
his head split with sabre; another woun.
ded III the hand while the negro sergeant
who had struck the blow with the sabre
was lying. dead On the spot where he tell.
From citizens living in that vicinity, we
learn that this sergeant had protested be-
fore the officer of the day, lieutenant Grif
tin, against the tying up by the thumbs
OF some OF his company, and that the Off
Ger had ordered him to his quarters, which
order he refused to obey, threatening to
report to general Merritt Whether the
officer then attempted to shoot or not, we
could not learn, but Immediately the SER
geant drew lis sabre and cut. Another
officer then shot the sergeant through the
head, while the latter officer was wounded
In the head by still another soldier; in
the meantime the whole camp was alive,

BE Fernelius calls disease an affection
OF the body, contrary to nature purtuba-
ton of its habits: arrangement of its
courses. What disease is, sometimes eludes
human intelligence, but some diseases are
known-their origin, action and even their
antidotes. Whoever has discovered an act
ual remedy for one disease, has done some
thing for his race. Doct Aver has done
more, for his medicines afford us the means
to control and cure several dangerous dis
orders. We rarely speak on medical sub
jects, preferring to leave them to physicians,
who understand them better. But such
effects as are seen in our midst, on affec-
tions of the lungs by Ayers Cherry Pecto-
raj, on scrofnlous complaints by his Sarsap-
arilla, on the several complaints that thew

Marriage of Wisconsin General and
Chicago Belle.
From the Chicago Tribune, 26th.7

lC1om tuc CulcaSO tribune, 10Th.
The upper circles of society in this city
have tor several days been in a hutter of
excitement in anticipation of matrimonial
event about to transpire. The elimination
OF this agitation was reached yesterday in
the marriage of Mary, daughter of Mr..
Mahlon d. Ogden, of this city, with Gener
al William Strong, Superintendent of the
Peshtigo Lumber Works, and residing in
Racine, Wisconsin. This gentleman did
gallant service in the late war as chief of
General McPherson's staff, and at the close
OF the rebellion was made Brigadier by
brevet. For days before the event the vul-
gar-tashionable left no stone unturned that
they might secure invitations to be present.
while the more successful gossipped about
the many distinguished persons who, it was
rumored, would grace the occasion by their
presence.
The nuptial ceremony took place at three
o'clock, at the residence of the brides ia.
ther, on the corner of North Dearborn
street and Lafyette place. The wedding
was private, and the guests were few in
number, and select, those residing in the
city being members of the oldest and most
substantial families in the CITY. Among
those from distance were Major General
W. I. Sherman, of St. Louis; Major Gen
eral 0. 0. Howard, of New York and
General Hickenlooper and wife of Cincin
natl; all of whom came hither especially to
be present at the marriage ceremony. Gen
eral Hickenlooper, it is well known, is Uni.
ted States Marshal of Ohio, and was him
self married not long since, on which occa
sion General Strong offciated as grooms-
man. General Hickenlooper was present
that he might perform similar Office at
the wedding of his friend.
The bridesmaids were four in number,
with the same number Of groomsmen. These
were attircd according to the prescribed
custom, the bridesmaids especially being
elegantly costumed The dress of the bride
was unusually rich and elegant, and
the veil was of the finest and most costly
lace. The guests, Of course, were all in full
dress.
The knot was tied by Right Rev Bishop
Clarkson, whose arrival on Wednesday
evening was most opportune After the
ceremony the bride and groom received the
congratulations of their friends. Refresh
ments were provided for those present, and
all went merry till the hour was near at
hand. summoning the new made pair to
take leave of the happy gathering and de-
part on the train for an extended bridal
tour in the East.

Annexation of. Canada.

The London Economist talks in this way
about the purchase Of British America by
the United States:
The possession of Russian America does
not constitute new inducement for the
Union to conquer Canada, but it does offer
a new inducement to Americans to tempt
Canada into annexation. To be masters of
continent is very taking ambition, and,
with Canada in the union, and Russian
America purchased, the Americans would
be masters of continent, direct masters
from the Rio Grande to the pole, and indi-
rect masters frum the isthmus to the straits
of Kamtchatka. We can easily imagine
that the purchase may increase the banker
ing just as the purchase Of an outlying
farm by great proprietor increases his
hankering to join it on to the body of his
estate. And we can imagine. too, that
the possession may diminish Canadian re-
luctance to enter the union. Men are
greatly moved by their imagin ations, and
to be part proprietors Of continent, to
feel themselves seated forever on two great
oceans, finally beyond the reach or possibi-
1ty OF an attack, or menace, or intrigue. is
prospect which would move any man,
which would speedily move men who like
the Canadians and Americans, have been
trained by circumstances to connect the
ideas of bigness and Of grandeur. To live
under. the idea that neigboring state of al
most irresistible power intends to annex you
in the end, is very trying to politicians, as
the people Of Belgium know, and many
among them may be tempted, like MANY
among the Belgians, to end the irritation
by joining that state, instead of waiting 10
suspicious preparation until the junction
is effected without their consent.

But in all this legislation there is the
most glaring Inconsistency. In the majority
of Northern States, the negro has certainly
one right (which no white man is bound to
respect" that of representation for taxa
ton. Still, the Senators and Rep
resentatives OF those States gravely
assert that he has that right in the South
ern States. Are right and wrong, justice
and injustice, capable of being exactly limi-
ted and defined by geographical lines? Is
that right south of 3S0 4O> which is
wrong north of it? Is that right in Ker-
tucky or Louisiana which is wrong in Ohio
or Missouri? 1t was a cutting satire on
this elective franchise legislation, that at
the moment when Ohio senators and repre-
sentatives were imposing negro suffrage
upon the south, Ohio-radical Ohio-in
her legislature was denying the same right
to her negro citizens! But the negro of
Ohio, or Connecticut or Michigan is more
intelligent than his Southern brothers; the
refusal of the elective franchise is radically
prima tacie evidence of ILL will; therefore,
by close deduction from their own premises,
the negro needs present military protec-
tion" in those States. Was there ever be-
tween the acts and professions of any party
such inconsistency The duplicity of poll
tics furnishes no parallel for such arrant
hypocrisy! One is invisibly reminded of
Mrs. Jellyby and her schemes in Barrio-
boola -Gha! PTS.

A ONE-SIDED AFFAIR.-An election re-
Gently took place in York State to elect
delegates to Convention for the purpose of
revising the State Constitution. The radi-
calls claim that they carried the State by
1000 majority, and that too although the
election was no test of popular opinion, for
the reason that the political complexion of
the convention was foregone conclusion at
the start. The basis Of representation was
purposely so fixed that majority of the
aggregate vote against the republicans
would not defeat the election of a majority
of republicans to the convention. Of course
the democracy did not care to enter into a
contest which promised no practical results.
The election was accordingly regarded with
comparative Indifference throughout the
State, and in some districts the democracy
nominated no candidates and unanimously
remained away from the polls.

sSr The Eight-Hour law took effect in
Chicago on the lst inst, and the eight
hour men celebrated the event by an impos-
ing demonstration. Operations at the rail-
road shops, in nearly all the manufacturing
establishments and on new buildings in that
city, were virtually suspended during the
day how long they will remain so, is a
question in which the on-complying en-
ployers and the insisting employees are
equally concerned. Employers generally
declare that they will permanently shut up
their establishments rather than adopt the
eight-hour system. 1t is an alarming state
of affairs.
