The FL0oD.-The present overflow.
so far as ST. Landry is concerned, has
no counterpart within the memory of
the oldest inhabitants In fact. they
declare that the inundation of 1882
covers many more miles of territory
than the great foeds of 1923. It is es-
timated that 600 square miles of our
botton lands are covered with water
on the Atchafalaya, bayou Rouge, Petit
Prairie, Waxia, Courtablsau and the
Teche. Several hundred Of our peo-
pie, who had comfortable homes, fer
tile farms, and an abundance of stock,
are now left destitute, and, at present,
homeless. The floods have swept al
most every thing away; fencing, stock,
and, in many cases, houses, furniture,
provisions, &c. BY these unfortunates
the year 1882 will be remembered as
an epoch of unparalleled disaster, ruin,
and suffering. The waters are declin-
ing. but very SLOWLY and it will be
sometime before the scenes of desola
tion can be revisited by those who were
forced To flee from them. We deeply
sympatllize with their. unfortunate cir
and trust that a prompt
and generous aid from our more for.
inmate fellew citizens, will do much to
remove their distress and soothe their

We are very much pained to learn
that uar young friend, CIas. II. HoHs-
ton. who accidentally broke his leg
some weeks ago, is lying at the point
Iof death, no hopes being entertained
for bis recovery Tstanns set in seye-
raj days ago, and. despite the patient
skill and most nnremitting attentions
of two Of our best physicians, it is
slowly but surely bearing him away to
q premature grave. Charley was an
active, industrious, energetic, and very
deserving yonng man, and tho commu-
nifty can Ill afford to lose such as he.

About 10 o'clock last Sunday morn
ing, our town was considerably enliv-
ened BY der running down almost
the entire len 9Th of Main street. Horse
men and footsAen. men and boys ieined
10 the chase of the poor bewildered au-
iInal. NoW and then 1t would leap a

siles from thoughtleaa and, nnfeeling

blow on the head from brick which
started the blood from its pantiug nos

We have had no New Orleans mail
since last Saturday = week ago and
very little Of local nature. In fact,
the floods. above and below, have cut
US off from the world, and we have had
no exchanges to give us any news from
sotIler sections. Everything, therefore,
10 this issue is necessarily local, and
nos very abundant at that.
From yesterday, the mails to New
Orleans were forwarded via Vermilion-
vile. Houston, and Dallas, Texas /
from thence to Shreveport, thence To-
st. Louis, thence TO jackson, Miss,
and thence to New Orleans. Return
ing the Opelousas mail will be- brought.
oyer.the same circuito1s route. Under
this arrangement we will get three
mails per week and III will continue
this way fer many weeks, on account
of che iIeavy damage sustained by the
railroad track, between Morgan City
and Terfebonne station from the floods.
The passenger train now runs only
from WasIiington TO Bayou Sale and
freight trains have ceased running al
together.
