JACKSON, Miss, March 6-The Senate
adopted the House joint resolution accepting
the historical papers from the Hon. J. F. H.
Claiborne. The Senate passed bills as fol-
lows: To incorporate the Cooper's Mills Com
pany; to authorize counties, cities and
towns to subscribe to the capital stock in
railroads, with an amendment by Mr.. CoBan
to make an appropriation of $4,000 for
immigration.
Among other bills approved by the gov
ernor was the legislature apportionment.
The House passed the bill to authorize the
Issue of part of the agricultural land scrip
fund for the purchase of lands as contem-
plated by the act of Congress donating the
came.
The House adopted the report that there
was no ground, in the case OF McNeal
"a. Dodds, for contesting the election Of the
latter.
The House passed a bill to encourage
diversifcation Of agricultural industries
also a bill TO provide for the incorpora-
ton OF railroad companies and for prescrib-
ing their powers and defining their duties
also bill TO secure to the State the five
per cent. fund appropriation to the common
schools; also a bill to require railroad com

cons when passenger trains are due, ETC.; also

to that effect to-day. A proposition was also
| made TO ask for an appropriation to repair
the levees at once. To do this promptly and
effectually 80 as to be of service to the people
| this year, would require not less than
81 100000. Confederation Of this PROPOSE
| ton was deferred until formal meeting OF
members of the river States can be called,
which will probably be tomorrow.
LOSSES EXCEED ANY EsTIMATE YET MADE.
The war department continues to receive
dispatches from points in the Southwest in
regard TO the damages from the floods. Sec
retary Lincoln said this afternoon that the
Losses and consequent suffering exceeded
any estimate yet made. There are urgent
calls for greater measure of relief th an can
be afforded within the limits of the appro-
priatioD, and these demands, of course, can
net be fully met without the consent of Con-
eress. The senators and members of the
House from the afflicted States are in
receipt OF urgent kilograms calling for
appr priation commensurate with the dis
aster. From Little Rock alone there
are reports Of 1900 people made abso-
lutely destitute, and TO feed those even until
the Hood recedes will require double the SUM
set aside for that State for appropriation by
Congress. Senator Garland says that the
munici palities and corporations are respond
ing Hberally, but they are burdened with
refugees from flooded districts He also
says that the present distress is only the be-
ginning. The levees are broken in SO many
places that the impoverished communities
have been unable to repair them in time to
comes; also that under the best circum-
stances the ground will be in such a condi-
tion as to delay planting until too late for
good CROP

The following dispatch was sent to Gov
ernor Hawkins yesterday by President Hill
| of the Cotton Exchange:
MEMPHIS March G, 1882.
Governor Alvin S, Hawkins, Nashville, Tenn:
Reports of suffering by inhabitants of Ten
nessee in those counties which border the
Mississippi river are daily being received,
and while the citizens of Memphis are doing
everything in their power to relieve those in
distress, it is evident that what is being done
is inadequate. l would, therefore, suggest to
your Excellency that the secretary of war be
officially notified Of the distress which prevails
in this State, to the end that portion of the
amount donated by Congress may be dis
tributed among the needy of Tennessee,
whose lands have been inundated by the
present great overflow of the Mississippi
river From the most reliable sources
learn that there are about 5000 persons who
reside in the counties bordering the river
who are now suffering, and should be pro-
vided for the same as the destitute of Arkan-
sas and Mississippi. NAPOLEON HILL,
President Cotton Exchange
