st. Louis, Magch 29.-General Beck
with has just received the report from
Lieut.. B. II. Randolph, Bird cavalry,
dated Delhi, La, in which the latter
sums up the situation as follows: In
the district from the Red River to the
Arkansas line and about fifty miles
west of the Mississippi. There has
been no loss of life in this district K
cept a few children on the Black river,
and there Is 10 actual starvation and
restitution at present. The supply of
rations if carefully husbanded, will
supply all pressing needs until April 10,
when, if there is no improvement in
the situation before that date, there
will exist great restitution among all
people, both white and black. Should
the floods fall decidedly by April 10,
there will be needed only about one
half rations Of bacon and meat to
May LIST for 5 ,000 persons who cCnsti-
tute the class of sufferers, white and
black. If there is no change for the
better before the 10th OF April there
will be about $4,000 persons without
food or credit. Should the water fall
decidedly by April 10 the probability is
that planting car be done by May LIST,
and with that prospect large planters
will prefer to feed their own hands,
whereas il the water continues to rise
the whole system Of credit and work
ing will be upset. The commission
merchants will decline to advance to
country merchants and planters and
the latter will not be able to feed their
neighbors. l cannot too strongly rec
ommend that all issues be discontinued
Immediately upon the subsiding Of the
water so that planting can begin.
Ii the water recedes in the sugar
district within twenty days enough can
be saved for seed. Urgent appeals
for rations continue from all overlooked
sections. Fifty-ive thousand were
shipped to-day for Bonef river and co.
900 for West Felicinia, Concordia and
Madison parishes; also fodder for stock.

st. Louis, March 20.-The Merch-
ants adopted the following: Resolved,
In the opinion Of this body it is of the
utmost Importance that congress should
pass the bill for the construction of a
ship railway across the Isthmus of
Thorntepec. Resolved, that the great
commercial interests of the Mississippi
valley imperatively demand the con-
struction of the transit way for ships
across the American Isthmus, that
Thorntepec is in every sense the Ameri-
can route, and possesses great advan.
tage over either Nicaragua or Panama,
that the ship railway is in the opinion
of this body much more desirable than
the canal. First, because it can be
speedily constructed and at less expense
and In less time, and second, because
when completed, the vessels can be
much more quickly transported by rail-
way than by canal, and with equal
safety.

THURL0W WEED.
The Venerable Statesman in a Sensi-
BILE Letter to the Tribune
Mikes a Few Very Sensible Remarks
upon the Chinese Bill.
rhurlow weeds Opinion.

New York, March 29.-The venerable
There are two sides to the Chinese
question. In our national infancy we
commenced house keeping by opening
our doors to guests from all portions Of
for u hundreds years that America
would welcome strangers from every
climate, but China is taxing u hospi-
tally too severely. In the Pacific
states Cinnamon deprive our industri-
GUS classes of employment, they work
cheaper, do their work better and are
far less troublesome than laborers and
domestics with whom they coiue in con-
tact, and its alleged and feared that
Chinese immigration will crowd those
states with the incongruous element, an
element which does and will not assim-
ilate to, or fraternize with our institu-
tions or the people. In Atlantic states,
Chinese, comparatively few in num-
Der are industrious, frugal, and inoffen-
sive. The question is further embar-
rased by the diplomatic and treaty rela-
tons, and will not the passage of the
law for closing u ports against the
inhabitants of friendly powers not only
disrupt relations, MISREPRESENTATION?
Without entering upon this or other
features of question, L must be permit
ted to express my regret that congress
did not limit the operation Of this law
to Eve years, that would have given
time for negotiations which might re-
suit in amiable adjustment Of the ques-
ton. In view of its Importance and
difficulties by which it is surrounded,
would it not be wise for the president
to return the bill with suggestions of
notifications, which would make it not
only accessible to him and to fair
minded men of all parties.
