tain the present rise after the rainfall ceases
1t is not June rise, backed by the SHOWS of
the Rocky Mountains and the valleys OF the
great Northwest With these snow-clad hills
and valleys we are done, and We are now deal

up. and the weather becomes fair, which IS
most probably the case to-day, in the Ohio
and Tennessee valleys, and, We hope, the
valley of the Missouri, the water will run out
as rapidly as it has risen. We trust We may
be right in these predictions and that our
heavily laden fields, almost ready for the har
vest, may yet be spared to US.
