1881, compared with the same period of
1880, and the value OF exports increased
81, ,000, 900 francs for the same time. The

principally under the head of food.
The Post Office Department is informed

Almost every day suspicious persons try to
get look at the assassin. A man who arrived

most persistent. There are other Western
men In league with him, and three of them
endeavored to gain admission to the jail at
night recently.
No additional light has been shed on the
attempt to burn the Bothnia, and there is
no probability that the guilty parties will be
discovered. The agent Of the line says that
after thorough investigation he was salts
fed that there was no reason whatever for
any discomfort among the company's dis
charged workmen or sailors, and that the
theory that private revenge was the motive,
therefore, was not entitled to consideration.

BURST LEVEES.
LOwlands Submerged-Wides
Losses

CHICAGO, October 21.--A dispatch from
Quincy, Ill, says: ''The destruction along
the Sny levee is most complete. The break
is now fully three hundred feet wide and
constantly cutting out the earth at either
end of the crevasse. An immense volume
of water is pouring through the opening
and spreading out over the country. The
food is slowly approaching Rockport, which
is four miles from the river. The people
north and south Of the break
were hastily leaving their houses. Every
road leading out of the bottoms
was crowded with teams, and hundreds
of cattle, horses, mules and other live stock
were on the embankment, their owners not
having time to get them to the high grounds.
Large numbers of cattle have been drowned.
The farmers, many Of whom had hundreds
of acres of fine winter wheat last week,
promising an immense YIELD, are camping
along the bluffs with their families. Others
have left everything and taken their wives
and children to Quincy.
The Indian Grove levee gave way on
Wednesday afternoon, sixteen miles above
Quincy, but the break is not very serious.
The railroads in this vicinity will suffer Sc
verely from the food. The switchmen at
Hannibal have quit work, refusing to labor
In the mud and water which fill the yards.
Trains are discontinued on the Quincy,
Missouri and Pacific division OF the Wabash
Road. On the Missouri side the bottoms
are flooded back to the bluffs. The river
just below the city is flooded nine miles

being entirely carried away and the foretop-
mast dragged into the sea after it. de SAYS

occurred, and their escape from injury by
the falling spars snd masts was almost MI
rsculOus. After the collision both vessels
hove to, snd the mate and two Of the sea-
men Of the Wavecrest, together with Capt.
n K Richards and his four children, two
sons and two daughters, who were psssen-

steezed for this port.
