o'clock Sunday evening the water has risen at
the rate of twelve inches In twelve hours. 1t
now floods Canal street to Dryades street, and
on Common street the water extends 10 ham
part: In the angle of the city formed BY the
Old Basin, Claiborne street, and Elysian Fields
street, there is but little water; only such, In
deed, as arise from overnowed sewers. But be-
tween Elysian Fields street and Lafayette ave-
nue., and lar beyond Florida walk, the flood ex-
tends uninterruptedly to q vast lake--a minia-
ture sea. Nor does It stop here, but covers all
the vast area below Canal street from Bayou st.
John to Jourdan avenue, and from Hagan ave.
nue. up Poydras to Rampant street. Nearly
every homestead in this wide extent Is sur
rounded by water. Many families have left; but
others will remain confined to their houses and
suffering for food. 1t is true the charitably dis
posed and the authorities are putting forth
every exertion to minister to their necessities;
but their facilities for transporting food are few
and many must suffer the greatest extremity
before assistance can reach them. 1t was re-
ported yesterday evening that the water was
slowly receding at Mlneburk; but this does not
appear possible, in view of the fact that il is
rising elsewhere. The same volume of water
that passes over the rear of the city would con-
tribute equally to rise at the lake end. All of
the street cars beyond Rampant street have
stopped. The travel on this thoroughfare how
ever, will scarcely be affected unless, indeed, 1t
be those cars which run out Esplanade street.
The advance in this direction of course is not to
thought of. In brief, this is the present condi-
tion of the flood. 1t is hardly probable that it
can remain so long. and by the time this in
print the refiux may have set in. Towards
noon there was an. evident abatement in
the rise, and towards nightfall the waters began
recedng. Nevertheless, it was very slowly.
Among the noticeable incidents connected with
the flood are the exorbitant charges made by
boatmen for removing persons and families
Absolutely dependent upon their kind offices
the poor people have to submit to any extortior
| they may choose to exact. Would it not be OF
| we'll for the superintendent to detail police Il
| prevent this sort of transactions? Robberies il
the flooded district are numerous and nearly
every hour some complaint is made of those
| wretches who pray upon the unfortunate an(
| those In distress.
| 1t is TO be hoped, however, that in few day
the food will have entirely subsidized. In til,
meantime efforts to assist those in afIlictior
should be redoubled.

A SINGULAR CASE.

A Young Man Arrested on the Eve of HIS
Wedding at the InstigatiOn of His
Father, Who Charges Him With For
gerry.
Moran a real estate agent and collector of
rents. His son, Mr.. Nj. V. Moran, o man of
twenty-five or twenty-six years of age, has long
been engaged to Miss Annie Ivers, beautiful
and accomplished young lady. The father and
mother of Mr.. Moran bitterly opposed the mar
riage upon the ground, it is said, that Mr..
Moran and Miss Ivers both suffered from lung
complaint. The lady and her friends earnestly
protested that her lungs were in excellent con-
dition, and Mr.. Moran was of the opinion that
his lungs were equal to any he had ever had,
and plenty good enough to enter matrimony
with. Being of lawful age, sound mind and
considerable spirit, he determined to marry the
object of his choice in spite of parental oppos-
tion, and sagely remarked that 1t was his we'd
ding and not his fathers
Night before last the young couple started for
church with the intention of making such reli-
gious preparation as is usual in the Catholic
Church prior to wedding. While on the steps
of the sacred edifce the young man was taken
into custody on charge OF forgery preferred
by his father. The young lady did not shrek
or faint, as was reported but being endowed
with strong nerves and stronger love for the
man she was about to marry, accepted the situa-
tion with philosophy, satisfied that her lovers
character would not suffer by the accusation.
She returned home with her friends, while Mr..
Moran was conducted to the Third District
station-house and locked up for the night. Yes
terday morning Mr.. Moran Sr., visited him, and
after short conversation withdrew the charge.
The wedding was not deferred, but was solem-
nized at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and the
pair are now as happy as it is possible for them
| to be under the adverse circumstances encoun-'
tered in their endeavors to become one.
The bridegroom, it appears, had been en-
ployed in his fathers Office as cashier and busi
ness manager, and it had been customary with
Mr.. Moran, Sr., to sign blank checks, which
| his son filed up for any amount needed in busi-
| ness transactions.
| Moran. Sr., had refused to advance the money
needed by his son for the expenses of the we'd
| ding, and the latter having, as claimed, $3.50
| due him as salary, filed up check for the
amount and drew 1t at the bank. The transac-
tion, as claimed by his freinds, appears to have
been legitimate, and his fathers action seems to
have been the result of undue excitement.-St
