Doing Great Damage - The Levees
Broken.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Feb. 13.-The Ga
zette's Helena special says: THE river at
this point has risen about one and half
inches; many expressed the hope the crisis
had been reached, but are hoping against
hope, as advices from Madison and Walnut
Bend indicate rapid raise the past twenty
four hours. The levee at Walnut Hill has
broken in several places. There are
not three acres to be seen in any direc-
ton. kilograms have been sent to Memphis
asking that boats be sent down to take out
cattle, horses and mules. st. Francis River
is reported rising along its entire length.
The situation is indeed alarming, but the
citizens are determined to leave nothing un-
done to keep out the water. The repor}
was received this morning that the levee
broke at Delta, Miss, ten mills below Bat
Fall. The particulars have not been learned.
