The river at this point is within four
teen inches of high water mark in 1861.
The country from the mouth of White
river down is overAowed. At the old
Sunfower landing, opposite Island &c.
the levee is washed away and a food of
water is pouring down over Sunhower
county bottom toward the Yazoo river.
The big levee at Washpuckni, built in
1869, is in great danger, and fears are
entertained as to its safety. The rise in
the Mississippi, White and Arkansas
rivers still continues, and it is expected
that in a day or two the rise of 1867 will
be overreached. This does no little
damage to the planting interest of the
lower country. A sea of water reaches
far from the river on either side SO that
the local packets failed to 60 cut from
our port, as planters could not reach the
banks with cotton.

DOUBLE.HEADED DIVORCE.

of the Drama.

In the First Chancery Court petition
for injunction and divorce has been filed
by Mrs. Sarah Auna Topping, late Of
New York city, against Dr. Henry +.
Topping, a most respectable and learn
ed physician of that village. The facts
in the case seem to be that DR.. and Mrs.
Topping we're people Of wealth and re-
spectsbility, and moved in the best soci'
ETY. Of Gotham.
Not long since DIR. Topping 6led bill
for divorce in the New York courts,
alleging adultery on the part Of his wife.
Mrs. Topping came to Memphis, and a
few days since fled bill for injunction
and divorce in the First Chancery Court,
alleging adultery and cruel treatment on
the part Of her husband, and claiming
fifteen or twenty thousand dollars worth
Of property in this city as really and in
fact hers, although the property has
heretofore passed in the name of DR..
H. F. Topping. The Doctor is man
of large wealth, and both are Of the high
est respectability. In this city the com
plainant is represented by Messrs.
Humes Poston, and the petition for
divorce is resisted by Colonel Tom
Brown, all of whom are leading mem
bers of the Memphis bar. What to do
with the tive divorces is the question,
and we presume the question is, which
divorce will be FIRST obtained2-in fact

WATER COMPANY.
Annual Meeting of the st0ekhOId
ers-ElectfOn of Others--En.
cOuraging Report, Etc.

At the annual meeting OF the Stock
holders Of the Memphis Water Company,
held yesterday, this following gentlemen
we're elected as Directors for the ensuing
year:
VIM. NJ Harrington, VIM. s. Bruce,
W. W. Thatcher, John Cabins and b.
G. Brown.
Subsequently. at meeting of the
Board, John Cub MS was re elected
President, and w. l.. Cameron was re-
appointed Secretary and Treasurer
From the reports we extract the fol-
lowing, as being Of interest 10 the public:
The endorsements OF the Company
are attributed to the unexampled Attic
tons which have befallen our city and
to the refusal Of the city 10 pay its by
drant rents.
They state that the endorsements
have been relieved, for year at least,
by an extension granted by nearly all
its creditors, and the hberality of its
largest creditors in making il further
loan, sufficient to complete the settling
reservoir and purchase year supply
of coal.
This, with such board Of directors,
must secure the good will and conf
dence of our citizens, and largely in
crease the consumption Of water Since
the completion of our works about forty
| fires have broken out upon or near the
line Of our pipes, every one Of which
has been confined to the building in
which it originated, by our hydrants, and
without the use of the fire engines. The
loss upon all Of these fires has not
amounted to near so much as that from
one FIRE which occurred short time pre-
yious to the completion of our works.
Many complaints have been made as
to the quality of our water, some of
which, we are compelled to admit, are
we'll founded, but the charge that tits
unwholesome, or tends to create siek-
ness, we think is sufficiently refuted by
the statement of the proprietors OF the
Peabody Hotel, where our water has been
used for all purposes, that not single
case of yellow fever originated, or any
other sickness, that could be charged to
the water.
A flterer, used largely in Louisville
and other cities, has been placed on
exhibition in their office, which makes
the water perfectly clear and pure.
The report concludes with thanks to
the creditors fer their liberality, and to
the employees for their diligent attention.
to the business Of the company during
the year, especially in view OF the facts,
that with all the difficulties they had to
encounter and the dreadful sickness
even in their own families, and in some
| cases, in their person, the company have
never suspended operations for single
hour, and has always responded to the
demands of the city for water and for
power to extinguish fires.

ADJUSTMENTS.

MEMPHIS THEATER. - Last evening
Enoch Arden, dramatization Of TenDy-
sons charming poem, was well present
ed at the theater. The cast was as fol-
lows: "Enoch Arden" George D. Chap
lin; philip Ray" E. F. Knowles;
Reuben" Harry Moreland; Miriam
Lane" Kate Taylor; Annie Leigh,
Mrs. Hamilton; Esther Arden" Agnes
Proctor; Captain Sterling" ]. Suther-
land, etc. The play is founded upon a
most charming story, full ofpathetic incl
dents and attractive surroundings. The
plot is simple. "Enoch Arden" sailor
| youth, and Philip Ray the miller S
son, loved Annie Leigh" all residing
in village on the coast of
Cornwall, England. Annie loved the
bold young fisherman and sail
or, "Enoch Arden" and married
him. Enoch goes to sea in the China
trade and is cast away on desert island
Their two children we're sent to school
by Philip Ray, who was called by them
Father Philip" For ten long years
Enoch was absent and not heard from,
and Philip still loved his playmate, An.
ME Leigh, and she promised to marry
him within year if Enoch was not
heard from. She married him, and
| Enoch lay wrecked on an island in soli-
tude for years, until another vessel in
| search1of water touched at the island.
He was homeward bound, and in due
time landed in his native village. Here
he met Miriam Lane, who kept tavern,
and who told him of the marriage of his
wife to Philip Ray, and the birth of new
children. Making himself known to
Miriam, he made her swear that she
would not reveal his secret until he was
dead. Then dragging his weary body to
the home of Philip and Annie he saw
his wife and children in the midst of
happiness, and fearing to disturb the
same, laid down and died, blessing his
wife and children and Philip Ray. The
poet tells the tale as follows:
s'When Enoch slumbered motionless and pale,
And Miriam watch'd and dozed at interval Is
There came so loud calling Of the sea
| That all the houses in the haven rang;
He woke; he rose he spread his arms abroad
Crying with a loud voice, A sail san
| / am saved y and SO fell back and spoke no
m0re.'
| Mr.. Chaplin was very effective as
"Enoch Arden" and proved himself to
be an emotional actor of no little merit
In many of the scenes he was dramatic
and drew from the audience repeated
rounds of applause, deserved compli'
ment to talent. Mr.. Knowles as
"Philip Ray was quite acceptable, as
was Mrs. Hamilton in the role of Annie
Leigh" The minor characters were
we'll sustained by the company. To
night Mr.. Chaplin will repeat his rendi'
ton of Enoch Arden, and he deserves
crowded house, having proved himself
to be a most effective and pains'taking
actor and worthy of recognition at the
hands of the public.
