overflowed. Above Alexandria on Bon Dieu

Clapp Place above Bayou Rapids and all the
lowlands from Colfax up to Montgomery are
inundated. Alexandria is not yet overflowed
and little damage has been done between Col
fax and Alexandria so far. Bayou Boeuf
planters have put their men to work on the
levees and built quite strong bank around
Alexandria, rendering it safe. The water is
now coming down the Mississippi very rapid
ly and it is this more than the Red river that
the people are afraid of.
Water is pouring through crevasses in Ten
sas and Black rivers and is backing up into
the Red river rapidly. and there is no telling
what damage may yet result. People are un-
dergoing terrible hardships. Many of them
are emigrants who settled in the productive
lowlands along the river and improved the
country considerably and were building it up
Some of them had only made one or two
crops and were just beginning to get their
places in full running order, when the water
swept their crops and everything else away
