When the river reached its high
est point at Memphis, some
weeks ago, and the levees i'll tie
vicinity began to yield, there
was still about thirty inches at
Vicksburgh to spare. The rise
should have reached Vicks5nrgh
in four days after it arrived ut
Memphis. The Levees gave way
aud inundated all the lower lands
on both sides of the river, and
filling up the vast reservoirs i'll
the valleys OF the White, Arkan
saS, and Yazoo rivers. Then
fifteen or twenty days afterwards
the water began pouring into
the river at Vicksburgh causing
three feet rise in less chan 81 week
and bursting the levees in the vi
ciuity of that City. Then q fall
had reached Memphis.
There was capacity in the river
at Vicksburgh at any time to
transport all the water. that flow
ed by Memphis, without trouble,
had it come regularly down the
river as it would have done it the
Levees had been y little stronger
and restrained the water in the
river channel.
In that case, the water that

lief, it it can be had, should be
had before the disease becomes
chronic.
The Insane Asylum at Jackson
is now full with % applications
for admission on file. The next
Legislature should see to this
very important subject.
A few weeks ago the Natchi-
tOches Vindicator stated the Con
vent Buildings at Natchitoches
were vacant and that those build
lngs might be purchased by the
State for an Insane Asylum. If
this be true the Legislature should
endeavOr to secure them.
We know of no more conve.
nient or eligible position for an
asylum than that.
1t the finances of the State will
not permit the purchase of the
buildings: let a contract be made
aud assess each Parish that sends
an Insane person to the Asylum
either at Jackson or Nachitoches
say fifty dollars to be set apart
to pay for the same. 1t would
be better for Parishes to pay
$4,000 than to keep insane in
their jai!s and by that means the
asylum could he easily paid for.
