A Good Suggestion
To the Editors of the Appeal:

II
CoAHoMA COUNTY, MISS, March 28.-The
losses consequent on an imperfect and in
complete levee by the present disastrous
flood are so enormous, the character of those
LOSSES so varied, and the extent of country so
great, that it is utterly impossible for any
one man TO make even a guess-work calcula-
ton or estimate of the probable amount.
This great aggregate loss and destruction of
private property, amounting to millions OF
dollars, is a national calamity that will
take years OF toll and labor TO recover
from. And therefore | suggest that the
Boards OF Trade and the press in the
overlooked districts take immediate steps
and exercise proper influence on II e
State governments TO have statistics and es-
Inmates taxi N OF all losses consequent the
