THE FLOOD.
The mississippi Falling.

YAZoO CITY, March 23.-The river
fell two inches at this point, last night,
total fall of four inches since
Tuesday. The steamer City of Yazoo
a. rived from the Tallahatchie river and
reports fall of fifteen inches at Shar
keys, and that it is falling at the rate
of four inches in twenty four hours.
A heavy rain fell at Greenwood,
which caused temporary check in the
decline at that point All along the
Yazoo river, below Greenwood, the fall
has averaged i've inches.
THE extr me suffering reI o:ted in the
Tallahatchie river was greatly exag.
gerated. According to the statements
OF the officers of the steamer Yazoo,
the people in that section of the country
are well provided for, and in some
places preparations are being made for
planting. The suffering is mainly on
be Yazoo river, where the stock, con-
fined on mounds and gin houses is
starving. Many cattle which are
brought here die shortly after being
discharged from the boats. The boats
now arriving bring but few people, and
it is supposed that the exodus from the
Yazoo delta has about ended.

Mr., Blaine Interviewed.

A reporter of the Post had au inter-
view yesterday with Secretary
Blaine who recently returned from
Pittsburg with severe cold from
which he has not yet fully recovered.
The object of the interview was to OBJ
tain Mr.. Blaine's views on the later
phases of the Chilli Peruvian question.
Mr.. Blaine stated he was not able to
give an exhaustive review Of tie ques-
ton but that the general result was
precisely what he had predicted when
Mr.. Trescott's instructions were re-
voked. He was hardly prepared to be-
lieve that the alleged protocol had been
signed.

fatally hurt.

THE LOST JEANhRtTE.
Sent ON = Service for Which Sh0
Was Not Adapted-An OtkicI al Ro.


port.
WASHINGTON, March 22.-In one of
the letters of Engineer Melville to his
wife, published in the Times, he referred
TO The fact that he did not think tho
Jeannette seaworthy, and in this opinion
he was not alone, If the report of the
Board of Survey who examined the
vessel Is worthy of belief. After the
Jeanette had been alt red for herArctic
cruise the following Board of Survey
was appointed to examine her and re-
port to the Secretary of the Navy: Cap.
p. G. johnson, Commander G. j.
McDougal, Naval Constructor G M.
Much and Chief Engineers G. f. Kutz
and Edward Farmer.
After a thorougn inspection the board
transmitted the result to Commodore
Calhoun at Mare Island January 26,
1879, by whom it was sent TO the Navy
Department. The report gives detailed
account of the repairs to and alterations
of the vessel and the result OF trial
trip Tade a few days before her
departure for the Arctic. OF this the
board say : "For an extended cruise
in the Arctic regions, as far as practi-
cable, she has been fitted out tor a SER
vice for which she is not adapted"
The hoal then gave all account of the
trial nf her engines, and state that Ger
tain terations suggested by them were
not carried ont, and conclude ty re-
peating $50 far az practicable, we
are of the opinion that she has been re-
paired and placed in condition for SER
vice in the Arctic Ocean" In all their
examinations, however, the board could
not be made TO say that the Jeanette
was adapted for the service for which
she was being fitted out, and it is the
general impression that their recon-
mendations Should have been looked
into more carefully before he crew
were allowed to depart on their perilous
trip. The report of the board does not
in any way favor the Jeanette, and
the point that she was not adapted for
the service is very strongly dwelt upon
by them.

Edward Darlington, a farmer in East
Bradford township, Chester county,
having lost number of fowls from his
poultry-house, sei three steel traps in
the building one evening recently, and
within two hours caught four of his
own cats and one old 'possum, whioi
was accompanied by nine young ones
which were all secured. The total
catch in the brief period footed mp four
domestlcated tabbies and ten wild pos
sums, and from the fact that the flocks
now repose in peace, Mr.. Darlington
has concluded that the former thieves
have all been secured

..POnr OIL ON Trouble ed Waters"

Is an old recommendation in th'
modern Interpretation of the phrase w.
hear such expressions and advice ao
the following contained in the closing
words of long article in the Boston
Herald: During my jauntings around
town heard many remarks Of a COM
plimentary character in relation to tho
merits of st. Jacobs Oil, and one per.
son said : "There's the venerable Hani-
bal Hamlin, of Maine, our ex-Vice
President. He never wears an over
coat, and Is therefore the legitimate
prey of rheumatism. If he wants to
continue saving the expense of an over
coat, and at the same time escape rheu
matism, such weather as this, he must
invest fifty ceuts in bottle of St.
Jacobs Oil and lather himself with it
right well. He will find it a cheap and
serviceable overooat to keep the rheu-
matism from his body.

ular IN st. Paul was attested last night by
the large audience that assembled to wit
ness the performance by the Hess Opera
company. The cast was not as strong a
one as some that have favored our city.
but the leading roles were filed by artists
of exceptional talent. The mignonette of
Miss st. Quenten was very chaste. and
sprightly performance, enhanced by some
excellent vocalization, which was appro-
priately recognized by the audience. Miss
Rose Leighton made modest, naive and
pleasing Germaine. She has rich, sym
pathetic voice, not thoroughly cultivated
nor always completely under control, but
capable of development into a splendid
organ. Mr.. Mark Smith made a very SUI
1erior Marquis-the best we have
had upon the Opera house stage. In both
acting and singing he was all that could be
desired, and the audience demanded rep
etition of each of his solo parts. Mr.. Henry
Peakes was Gaspard to the life He is the
creator of the character, and none have yet
been found to successfully initiate him.
Mr.. Tams was very satisfactory sheriff;
Mir. Appleby d bad Robin. The chorus did
some effective work, though showing the
need of discipline in some respects. The
performance throughout was we'll re-
