LITTLE Rock, May ia Gazette special
from JacksoDport, Ark, says of the great
food in White river: "We are in the midst
of the most destructive overflow that has
visited this section for years. The water
stands thirty-one feet eight inches above
zero, and has fallen three inches. There ia
not foot of dry ground in the town, except
Jefferson street, which affords refuge TO all
the stock the citizens possess. Quite num-
Der of families have been compelled to take
refuge in the uppsr stories of storehouses.
The whole country for miles around is one
sea OF water, and the damage TO crops and
stock cannot be ascertained, but may safely
be estimated up in the thousands. A large
portion of Oiltrough and Big bottoms are
under water, and the damage to the wheat
crop is terrible. The present food is the
highest since 1867. If second rise should
come, goodbye everything. Weather clear,
with strong northwest wind, and hopes are
entertained that the worst is over. Have not
had mail for nearly a week."

NEW YORK, May 10.-The World says:
Inspector Byrnes's detectives were kept
unusually busy yesterday and last night
the detectives were distributed singly and
in pairs throughout the precincts below
Central Park, and it was rumored that they
were following up clew to the men who
took part in the murders of Lord Cavendish
and Under-Secretary Burke The descrip-
ton of one of the criminals, it is
said, answers exactly that of a person
who has for several years resided in
this city, and who has not been at home nor
at his usual haunts for weeks. 1t is known
that he asso lated and was, indeed, in the
service at different times of some OF the
leaders of the Irish movement in this city.
His friends claim that he can be produced at
any time. Several incidents that have come
to the knowledge of the police tend to
strengthen the theory that at least one of the
assassins was hired in this city, and the
World reporter was given 10 understand last
night that the activity OF the detectives was
prompted by the hope of being able
to unmask band OF consPlratois
