the Overflow.

The Friar's Point (Mississippi) Delta
| extra, issued Monday last, llth inst.'
states
Last Sunday morning the ievee was
cut by some fend at point one ana
half miles above Friar's Point, notwitn-
standing that the levee was patroled 1y
armed men. Alarm was immeoi
ately given and the leyee force re.
haired to the spot in haste, but arrived
too late TO do any good The impetuous
force OF the waves as they dashed over
the cataract, uprooted large trees, ana
swept away everything in its resistiess
course. By daylight on Sunday morn
ing there was considerable commotion
in town, but no water had yet made It's
appearance except in the low places IN
the rear Of town, where it rose rapidly,
and drove the people living in that
vicinity out of their houses to seek re-
fuge in more elevated places.
About the same time break occurred
half way between the town and J. q.
Millers residence. The waters of the
mighty Mississippi broke through the
puny barrier and swept with resistless
force over the crevasse, turning the
splendid plantation of Colonel Miller
into one vast sea of boiling, turbulent,
resistless waves. The water backing up
toward town and meeting the floods
from the crevasse above, soon over
flowed our Streets and compelled the
people to seek places of safety for their
families and their goods. llday the
backwater continued rising, and by night
had attained a depth Of one footin the
middle of Main street in front Of the
Delta Office In the meantime the river
in front of town had declined nearly
four inches, caused by the crevasses
above and below.
The ruin and destruction on Colonel
Miller's place, and also on D. B. May
nard's place isimmense, and when the
water subsidies viii leave both places
bowling wilderness, These and A. B.
Rozell's place are the only ones ia sight
Of which we can kpeak, but we fear that
all others witEa range Of the food viii
be subject tof mofe or less damages
Much Of the ltock will be lost and
great deal Of Suffering will follow.
The leyee has also broke at Trotters.
and is cracked at the Yazoo Pass. If
the latter should give way the overflow
win become general aud disastrous.
