Although less than week re.
mains before the spring elections take
place there is very little said Of the
matter in Tgonesta, and who will be
the probable candidates is yet a ques-
tion in the dark, so much so ia feet
that we have not beard Of a single as
pirant for any Of the offices. No one
seems to have the Mayorality bee in
his bonnet, and it seems as though it
would be difficult to get available
timber for candidates for even that
highly important and honorable posi-
ton. Constable Walters, according
to law, has posted notices Of the elec-
tion in this borough by which we see
the following Offices are to be filled !:
Burgess, six councilmen, high consta-
BILE, judge of election, two inspectors
of election, one constable, three school
directors, (two to serve 3 years, and
one to serve ! year, two overseers Of
the poor. the one receiving the highest
vote to serve 2 years, one auditor, one
assessor and two assistant assessors.
The rig for the new we'll at Ball.
town is finished, and drilling was COM
menced Monday. There is no telling
when the we'll will be completed, but
with good luck it ought to be down in
three weeks or a little more. This is
No B, and is located between No. 3
and May d Kel!y's well, which is now
flowing a barrel day, and No. 3 is
doing about three barrels daily. The
new venture can hardly be anything
but a paving well. The Tiouesta Oil
Company's wildcat on Beaver Valley
is progressing as rapidly as possible,
the rig, which is being built by Mr..
r. w. Pimm Of Fagundus, is about
ready for the machinery and drillers.
We have considerable faith in this
venture, aud hope it will meet with
no bad luck to check its progress.

COTTON LANDS INUNDATED.

MEMPHIS Tenn, Feb 19.-A special dispatch last
night to The Appeal from Helena says there is no
abatement of the disasters that have overtaken the
planters of the Mississippi Valley caused by the
overflow of the Mississippi River between Memphis
and Vcksburg. For three weeks it has rained al
most daily, until now there is but a dreary watery
waste extending fully fifteen miles inland from
either bank. The destruction to dwellings, stock
and lands cannot now be properly estimated. There
have been innumerable breaks in the levees, and
the outlook for the pre- cent is anything but hopeful
Cattle and hogs have been drowned by the hundreds,
barns have been swept away and their contents
wasted, and mules and horses are suffering.
The loss to planters by the mishaps can
not bat have its effect in cranpipg their
facilities for putting in q crop for the year.
This condition of affairs exists to an
alarming extent in Crittenden Lee and Phillips
Counties, Ark, and in DeSoto, Tunica and Goa
homa Counties, Miss. These are the largest cotton
growing counties in the Mississippi Valley, and
what is true of them is also true of others that have
suffered in a similar manner. Starvation is threat
ening many poor people whose homes line the banks
of the streams that have Overilowed. In some in
stances cabins can he found in which are negroes,
hogs and mules, all gathered under ono shelter
awaiting the receding of the river that has III its
mad fury driven them TO seek safety by flight IN the
highlands.
The latest break occurred last nigh. about 800
yards above Austin, Miss, and the entire country
between Austin and Friar's Point n distance of
thirty-iv miles, will be covered with water
The latest advces from down the river are that
