VICKsBuRG, March 2l.-The United States
commissioners steamer, Emma Etheridge,
arrived here at o'clock this evening, and
brings news of the break of the Alsatia
levee in Thompson's bend. This is
regarded as the worse break which
has occurred south of Helena,
on the Louisiana side. J. b. Johnson. as
sistant engineer of the Mississippi river
states that from Alsatia to
Goodrich, a distance Of one mile, there are
three breaks-all serious ones. The breaks
occurred at Alsatia, Artie, and Mrs: Say
age. The entire levee to the Bell place is
gone, and it is impossible TO tell the depth |
Of the break at Alsatia. The breaks have |
caused fall in the river at this point. This
break occurred at o'clock this morning
md was caused by the heavy storm which
prevailed at that time. The fall of water
over the levee is about seven feet.

once and sold at end of call 4G5 points
above yesterdays closing quotations, on
demand ran up prices another Sac points

covered early in the day, and others pur-
chased because they think it expedient to
avail themselves of every decline, consider
ing there can be but little short interest.
The market is remarkably firm. Yester-
day decline was confidently expressed,
but moderate demand to-day sutiiced to.
frighten shorts to cover. This best shows
the present state of the market.

LAWRENCE, MASS, March 2l.-This morn
ing the strikers showed signs of weakening
and about forty returned to work. Later
in the day meeting was held and union
formed. An agent of one Of the Falvey
mills is in the city employing some of the
striking spinners, and this encouragement
from elsewhere and formation of the union
stitfened the strikers and correspondingIy
alarmed the mill men, and matters have
taken serious turn. The corporation
propose to close the entire worsted works.
This will throw 5000 persons out Of employ
ment for an indefinite period.
