The frat erevasse OF the season started
on Feb. | through the Grand Levee In
the parish Of pointe Coupee, and Is now
wide and deep enough to interrupt
travel and business In that parish. This
issomewhat early for crevasses to begin.
but II il d very faint suggestion Of what
Ia coming when that snow, piled sixteen
foet deep In the North, commences to
melt, unless by some merciful provi-
tience our eight miles OF broken lavees
are up 10 meet IL.
The planters have done more In tho
way of building levees this year than
ever before. The last years sugar crop
was profitable, and planters were con-
seQuently able to spare little money
on levees. and this they have done llber-
ally from their own pockets so literally
ms TO seriously cramp their resources for
the coming crop, have taxed them
selves four, and even Ave per cent. for
1ovee purposes, and yet. after all,
this Ia done, the levees are in mani
festiy worse condition than ever. Last
wears successful sugar crop has caused
thousands of acres to be planted that
have formerly laid idle: IL seems sin
gularly unfortunate that, at the very
restoration Of our prosperity, our
planters should encounter this obstacle
a want Of ievees-that all their re-
sources, all their energies cannot pos
eibIy overcome.
