above.

bbls meal, tons iron, 2 casks and box
bacon, Is hhds sugar, 20 bbls and 80 half
do. molasses, 50 boxes oranges, 8 boxes
lemons, 10 bbls pecans, sundries.
The j. L. Graham came down with "A
passengers, 1870 sacks corn, do. wheat,
AZ casks and boxes bacon, bbls lard, 5
do. potatoes, 10 sacks do, 10 hhds tobacco,
and lot of miscellaneous freight. She

The Memphis Apalanehe of the 10Th says

The Vicksburg Times of the 18th has the
following
We are called upon to record another
destructive crevasse. The Towns levee,
just below the city, near Grants ditch"
broke yesterday evening, and the waters
are now sweeping over the country, carry
ing destruction to everything in their reach.
Madison parish has suffered very severely
already, and this fresh calamity will place
almost its whole area under water. This
creyasse doubtless caused the fall in the
river to-day. The Marengo leyee at Vida
liza, in Concordia parish, was reported at
last accounts liable to break at any moment.
This levee cost the State sixty thousand
dollars. The opening in the Grand levee
is said to be DOW over a mile in width, and
boats nearing it have to head firmly to the
opposite shore to avoid being sucked into
it by the rushing waters. This levee cost
the State about half million dollars.

March the marine losses we're eight ships
thirteen barks, eight brigs, eleven schoon-
ers and four steamers. Five of these were
burned, seven were abandoned, two are
missing and one foundered. The total

uary there were seventy vessels lost, valued
at S2,771 900, and during February sixty
vessels, valued at S3,252,50O, making a
grand total for three months of one hun
bred and seventy-four vessels, valued at
SIS, 652, 500. During the same period in
1866, the losses were one hundred and
ninety-ore vessels, valued at $l0,474, 900.
The st. Louis Republican of the 10th says
the Mississippi was rising rapidly there,
and the upper streams were also rising.

ON THE OPENING OF BILLIARD
Room it is generally the custom, as every
one knows, to have several champions present to
entertain the public FOR FEW HOURS; but on
account of so much suffering among our people.
we thought proper to give the orphans of this
city and poor of Chattanooga that benefit, which
we have done for the last two weeks. And
again. as it is sometimes the custom of giving
premiums, such as watches. etc, and having
proof of the last two weeks business that the
citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy, we have therefore concluded to
Nashville from the ist day of April. 1861, up to
October lst, 1867, (siX months,) which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor Of Nash
vile. We hope that the amateur billiard play
ers and the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain it.

RUNAwAY.-Thursday occurred in our streets
one OF the queerest runaway scrapes we haveany
note Of The team of Mr. John Belford, of Eagle,
hitched near the court house. took fright, broke
loose and went up La Sale street "kiting."
Near Gilman, King ~ Hamilton's establishment
1T colGded with the wagon Of Uncle Martin Me-
Laughlin, who was driving leisurely up street,
wholly unconscious of the coming tempest in the
rear Suddenly Uncle Martin found himself
violently thrust from his seat and the off horse
of the fugitive team landed beautifully on its side
In his wagon box. So handsomely was it done.
that not strap was broken even trace of the
horse unhitched. The wheels of the two wagons
coming to close lock, of course arrested further
progress. The wagons were parted, the horses
unhitched, and Uncle Martins wagon being rails
ed up on one side, the horse was safely dumped
out Uncle Martin had few slight bruises.
but otherwise we believe no damage was done.
