 More of Grand Island Levee.
 SOUTHLAND, Cal, February 3.-The Grand Island levee broke on Steam boat Slough, near Walkers Landing near where it broke in 1878. There is no chance of stopping the breaks, and the damage to orchards and veg etables on the island will be immense. A vast number of breaks are reported above and below Sacramento City, on the west side of the river, and the tule lands are filled to such an extent that when the levee on Merritt Island, opposite this place, broke, being higher in the Cole, than in the river caused the river to rise rapidly here, and there is great danger of the over flowing of the levee on this side of the river. If it continues to rise it will be impossible to prevent it's flowing over.
