Condition of the

Memphis, 1.-The river is still declin-
ing here and at Helena. However, it
will be al least four weeks In some places
before blowing can be commenced.
Cattle continue dying from the double
cause Of hunger and Rnats. The smell
OF decayi3g carcasses is sickening, and q
gentleman on the MCGEE plantation says
he saw hundreds that ought to be killed
to be put out Of their misery. Added to
the stencil Of drowned, starved and gnat-
eaten animals, is that arising from buzz
yards, which may be seen particularly
near Old Town Point by thousands.
sometime not getting out Of the way Of
boats, so tame have they bscome. In
the vicinity Of Alligator and Cow bayou,
Lee County, Arkansas, great number
of cattle are dying, and the condition OF
the people yet is q sad one. Water
along White River is falling more rap
idly than anywhere else in the over
flowed district. The ground is peepin g
ont in a few places, and in q few weeks
the ploughshare will be gllsteninR 10 tha

At Laconia Circle the people have sut-
tered so badly by the loss OF cattle aud
stock that they are almost entirely help
less. It will be impossible for them to
raise q crop with the present animals
and the people have no money to pur-
chase others.

Two noteworthy sermons on tho
Phoenix Park tragedy-one preached
in this city and the other in Brooklyn
yesterday are fully reported on another
page. One Of them fell from the lips
Of a representative clergyman in the
Presbyterian Church, DR.. Talmage,
and the other was pronounced by DR..
Newman, wac may be said to be a rep
resentative Methodist. The views
which these gentlemen have taken of
the horrible deed fairly express public
opinion OF all shades in this country.
They condemn the crime and the Grim
inals; but at the same time they point
out the mistake which is now being
made in seeking to punish millions Of
people for the dastardly, cowardly
deeds of two assassins. There has
never been a period in the history of
English rule in Ireland when it was
more necessary in the interests of
peace, humanity and justice that the
leaders on both sides should come to-
gether and find a way out of existing
difficulties than at present. If Mr..
Gladstone fails to do this it will be the
great blunder Of his life, and he and
his party should be driven from power
as men unfit to govern.

wants the chief to advise him whether
he must let the money 60, break the
debtors back, or twist the gals neck
to get his necklace. Hor head has
swelled so much since she put the
gaudy thing on, that it can't be got of
any other way.
