tive and lie better; offerings of 1928 bushels,
with sales of white at 81. and mixed at go 81, 80

ALEXANDRIA FISH MARKET, May ID The
receipts of fresh Fish at the city Fishwharf
since yesterdays report have been $4,000 Her.
rings, which sold at from 20 to Sc per thous-
and and 40C0 Shad, which brought from 6 so
to ST per hundred. Very few Rock and Perch
have been received, and they cold high. The
fishery of 1874 is rapidly drawing to a close, and
so lar as the catch is concerned may be consid-
cred y failure, though as good prices have ruled,
those who caught any Fish have not lost money
while those whose catch was greater have had q
profitable season. The shores which have ''cut
OUT are those at Arkendale, Gums, The Jumps,
Windmill Point and Fowlke's, and Captain
Spranzy's OILERS have done the same. In
Georgetown, yesterday, Herring were quoted at
3 to So so per thousand.

We have further accounts of disasters by the
food in the Mississippi. A dispatch from Mem
phis, yesterday, says: About daylight yester-
day morning the leveee broke at Apperson' s
plantation opposite Friar's Point. At last &C
counts the crevasse was $50 yards wide and the
water spreading over the plantation, one OF the
finest in that section. The crevasse at Mlller's
on the Mississippi side is now six hundred
yards wide, and the water iu the streets OF
Friar' 5 Point is three feet deep. Whole tamll-
les are moving out and merchants are busily
engaged in removing their goods. The entire
country in the rear is rapidly beiog inundated.
Some idea may be formed of the power of the
water rushing through this crevasse by its tear
ing up cottonwood trees two and hail feet In
diameter, and scattering them over tho neigh
boring plantations. The steamers now all cruise
through the Council Bend cutoff

10 the General Conference OF the M. H..
Church Soeth, 10 session in Louisville, yester-
day, it was resolved that the message OF love
and brotherly kindness from M. E. Church has
been cordially received and has been referred
to a committee. The delegates from the M.
Z. Church were invited to address the mem
bers, and the speeches made by the different
members were cordially received. 1t was also
resolved that the Bishops issue pastoral ad-
dresses, bringing prominently before the Con-
ference the importance Of social and church
meetings; also setting forth the true meaning
and intention of the General Conference OF
1866 by its action respecting class meetings,
and the obligation of every member of the
Church to fast, to pray, to read the Scriptures
and for every head of family or household to
observe family prayer, and directing the atten-
ton of preachers aud the laity to the frequent
and increasing violation of that rule of discip-
line which forbids the taking Of any diversions,
except such as can be taken in the name of
the Lord Jesus.

A Richmond paper says. "The war has lett
the State iu an impoverished condition, and
many who we're wealthy before it commenced
are now penuless and in want. There are thous-
ands of young men 10 the State who must work
in some way or other. Instead of leaving the
State and going North and West to waste their
lives in Inferior positions and petty employ
ments. let them stay here and cultivate the
broad and rich Inheritance which is theirs. AS
agriculture is the noblcst and the healthlest OF
empIoymepts, so the time seems approaching
when it may also be as remunerative as any
other"
