The Raging CumberInnd.

NASHVILLE, Jan. 1S.-The Cumberland river is still rising and the gauge now shows 52 feet. It is raining and the weather is cold. Great damage is being done at points above and below here by the loss of lumber and stock. No estimate of the losses can yet be made. Houses, lumber and rafts are being carried off.
 LATER-The river was about at @ standstill from to to-day. From to 9 it rose about five inches and is rising slowly. A dispatch from Point Burnside, the head of navigation, reports the river falling about one foot an hour. The distress and suffering it caused here is terrible but large hearted citizens oi the city are taking active measures for re lief. A public meeting was held to-day and committees appointed to canvass the city fol contributions. The matter will be pushed forward until all suffering is relieved

A Plan to Break the Deadlock.
 ALBANY, Jan. 18.-It is reported Senator Jacobs said tonight that there will be an election of president pro tena, in the Senate next week. When asked if Jacobs would be elected he IaughingIy replied that he knew nothing further.

It is stated that when Jacobs and Wagner were in the ill-fated train last Friday they had perfected this ar engagement.
 When the Legislature met to day the Gov ernor sent in a message recommending legls- lation which should tend at least to prevent recurrence of such railroad accidents as that of last Friday.

A Flour Merchants Suicide.

BOSTON, Jan. 18.-W. Hummer 8 flour merchant of Minneapolis, Minn., committed suicide at the Danvers insane asylum to-day. It seems that a few days since Hummer went to Lynn for medical assistance and stopped with J. F. Potter, 23 Fremont street. He seemed to be partially insane, and on Monday last he was discovered in the act of taking a dose of laudanum, but was prevented. The next day he obtained a gun with which to take his life, but watchful friends prevented him from carrying his designs into effect. He was then sent to the Danvers insane asylum, where he acted as though he had abandoned his suicidal intent until to-day, when he car ried out his object. He entered closet in the asylum used as a wash room and breaking mirror that hung on the wall secured a piece of glass with which he severed the jug ular vein, dying few moments later. The boly will be sent to Manchester, N. H., for interment
