The situation on the Missouri

Yankton, d T., April7.-Thc only change
in the river situation is another rise, which
exceeds by afoot that of tho Goth hereto
fore reported. Lower Yank,on Is submerged
to-day and the people have b IN rem owed
10 the upper portion of the city. No live:
imperilled, but considerable dsmsge must
result to property. The intelligence re
ceivel 10 day from Bonhomme Is that out of
fourteen persons ten have been rescued alive
and well. A family named Bates and one
named Haddeman arc undoubtedly drowned.
Seven other families are probably lost six
miles this side of Green Island. The people
have been part removed to this place. No
lives were lost here, but the village Is com.
pletely washed away by water and leo 10 the
depth Of twelve feet across the village site.
The ice probably choked up the channel of
the river short distance below Yankton,
turning the great volume Of water across the
lowlirds on the Dakota side, and 1t flows
eastward thirty miles before II re.enters tho
old channel at Vermilion, point on the
river bank which is reported washed away,
with loss of thirty lives. This report
needs confirmation. Former dispatches have
given the situation at Niobrara. which INTEL
igence has been confirmed. No lives were
lost, and damage to the town by submersion
very slight. The river at this point Is abou:
six miles wide, with Its surface covered with
broken ice. East the few miles breadth Of
water broadens to fifteen miles, retaining this
width without exception for forty.ave miles.

Captain Boycott uAmer,ea.

New York, April 7.--Chsrles G. Boycott,
who was driven from his home in November
last by the land leagues at Tough Mask,
Ulster county, Ireland, arrived here to day
by the ltsy. He registered as Charles Cum
ninghan, omitting his sur name in order to
avoid identti oation. He was accompanied by
his wife, his brother, Rev Edmond Boycott, his
nephew, A st. John Boycott, and friend, A.
Weeks. His companions were registered as
Mira. Cunningham, A. Edmund and A. st.
John. They succeeded in concealing their
Identity on the steamer, but they were recog-
nized as soon as they landed. Captain
Boycott ia about 40 years old, and feet
inches in height. He is slightly bald and
his hair and whiskers are almost gray. His
features are large and prominent, and
his countenance is attractive and pleasant
Captain Boycott said TO Tribune reporter

II Is reported that the New York,
ers expressed themselves highly grati6ed a,
the visit Of Secretary Window, who made
no pretense to superior financial knowledge
or wisdom, but gave all with whom be con-
ferred the impression that be was not there to
teach them anything about banking, bat to
obtain the beneh! Of their suggestions il
possible. 1t sppesred. after all the confer
ences, that New York bankers differed more
on the subject of the prscticsbility of fund
ing the loan at 5 per cent. for long bonds
than on any other subject Like mea,.
bers Of congress in the recent dis
cussion over the funding hill, some
thought 1t could ba done and Others though.
Ii could not. But the impressioR which As.
sistant Secretary Upton derived FROM the
several conferences WAS that short time
loan for six or nine months would DO taken
with avldity at the present time, for oae
reason, because money Is very easy. II
seems like paradox that while per cents.
are quoted higher than 4l's, simply because
lower rate bonds have longer time 10 run,
a short per cent. could be placed. and q
long time bond at that rate would-not be
taken. The reason given for this apparent
anomaly is that capitalists would be
willing to invest in per cents
in Whist might DO required as q
call loan while the money market was easy
and bonds al par. But if strngency should
ensuc there would be n sudden and general
desire to realize on per cents which would
cause them to go down ia the market. Such
q contingency would not be anticipated OF
dreaded ON short time bond The national
banks would hold 3 per cents desirable in one
sense as security for circulation. A 8 pei
cent 500 bond would cost STA, on which
they coai obtain only 500 of circulation
per cent would cost only 800, and on
that the same amount of notes, 500, could be
obtained. The difference in interest would be
unimportant when the As is taken into
co nsideration.

Democrstic Senatorial Districts Wiped QUE.
Pittsburgh Post Harrisburg Correspondence.
But let us look . little into the details
Of this infamous assault upon the right OF
representation. The manner of grouping
strong Democratic counties into senatorial
districts and carving Republican districts
out of Democratic counties, shows the
master hand of an artist and displays the
ready invention-the abundant resources
and unparalleled audi acity of the Cameron
coterie. By the apportionment of 1870
Lehigh and Northampton each compose a
district, while Monroe, Pike and Carbon
constituted a third, all strongly Demo-
cratic and represented in the present SEN
ate by HOLDEN, Beidleman and Craig, re-
spectively. Lehigh has population, ac-
cOrding to the census Of 1880, of
G5,969, Northampton of 70,S16 and
Monroe, Carbon and Pike, Of 81, 758
in the aggregate, and yet in defiance
Of all decency, this committee has
"crged Craig's district into Holben's and

a population of 1881, and the Dem.
cratic district made up Of Northumberland,
Monroe and Pike will have population
Of 100, 152 as against the sc, 1O2 OF fthe kadi-
cal district of Delaware county. The dis
trict composed of the counties of Lycom-
ing, Montour and Columbia, represented
by McHenry, Democrat, is wiped out,
Sullivan being joined to Bradford and
Wyoming, which will continue to send tho
Radical, Davies; Lycoming to Tioga,
which will make new Republican dis
trict and Montour and Columbia to North
cumberland which will make a district
overwhelmingly Democratic, while Union
and SNYDER are taken from Northumber-
land and ioined to Juniata to make Re
publican district. The Democratic dis
trict composed of the counties OF Junlata,
Perry and Mifiiin is also wiped out,
Juniata being disposed Of as stated,
Perry being joined to Franklin and
Miffiin to district made up of Hunting
don. Mifflin and Fulton counties, the lat
ter districts being Republican. The coun-
ty of Lackawanna is made into q separate
district. which will he Republican, and
Luzerne into two, ono of which is Kepub-
lican. The Third district, Philadelphia, is
strengthened for tho Republicans to pre-
vent it from being captured by Demo
crat, as was done by Gordon at the last
election, and Philadelphia will have here
after but ono Democratic senator out OF
the eight.
