STAGE OF THE MISSISSIPPI.

ST LOUIS March 5.-Adv1ces from .the
lower Mississippi at St. Helena, Ark, say
the river is rising half an inch per hour
1t is believed the highest mark last wear
will be reached. 1t is thought the levees
will stand the strain, but uneasiness is felt
and preparations are being made for the
worst. A man was reported last night to
have been washed off the bridge at Black
fish bayou. At Arkansas City the water
is rising three inches a day Otherwise
the situation is unchanged Stated reports
say the damage over a space of country
between Fivours point and Vicksburg has
been grossly exaggerated. The levees are
unbroken and no danger is apprehended.
The planters are busy preparing to put in
their crops.
MEMPHIs, March 5-The river has risen
one inch since Yesterday. At St Helena.
Ark, rise of inches was reported yester

WASHINGTON, March Sin the suit of
counsel for the officers of the state OF Lou
isiana, to apply to the payment of consoli-
dated state bonds, all money derived from
the tax levied to pay state bonds, the su-
preme court holds that the constitution of
Louisiana Of 1879 took away the power of
state officers to so apply this tax; that it is
the executive officers duty alone, and
leaves no control of the relations with the
bondholders: that the court cannot assume
all the executive power of the state and
supervise the conduct of all persons
charged with any official duty. In respect
to the tax in question the decree of the
court below denying the prayer of the
bondholders is affirmed. Opinion by Chief
Justice Waite

The reported engagement between
General Crook and the Apaches is
doubted at Washington and on the
frontier. The fact is, that nothing is
known as to his movements since he
entered the disputed ground, and all
is uncertainty. tits probable that the
ApacheS are avoiding general engage.
ment, and that Crook has been so far
on fruitless raid. nothing of i'm
portance has occurred, and if General
Crook holds his command we'll in hand,
hoping to deal an effective blow when
opportunity occurs, it can be easily
understood that he does not feel
under the necessity of riskibg
the life of courier to communicate
with the nearest settlement. or tele-
graph Office. The Mexicans have
always fought the Apaches very
effectively when they could find them
south OF the Rio Grande, but the
Apache belongs properly to our side,
and has never been punished properly
on account of the weak, sickly senti-
mental policy dictated from New
England and issued officially at
Washington. 1t will be seen by dis
patches in this issue that General
Crook is fully authorized to destroy
hostile Apaches wherever he can find
them, and that he may pursue them to
their strongholds, regardless Of State
or National lines. He had a definite
policy and doubtless is endeavoring to
carry 1t out.

Three Battle Flags.

An interesting ceremony occurred
at the armory Of the Washington

one Of the original Confederate battle
flags. Three Of these flags were made
in Baltimore at the outbreak Of the
var by three young ladies who were
sympathizers with the South. TIE
6oplederscy had adopted no bal e
flag at this time, and these three figs
we're made from a design furnished
by Col. Walton, commanding
tbe Washington artillery. One
Of the flags vas given to General Joe
Johnston, one to EEell and the third
to Beauregard. The latter flag was
10 this city when it surrendered to
Farragut. This flag was sent on board
Of a French man Of war, taken to
Havana, and there placed in safe
hands. Only few weeks ago it was
returned to General Beauregard, and
be determined to present 1t to the
Washington artillery. The command
assembled Tonight for the purpose of
receiving it. The history Of the flag
was told by Judge Roman, vh9 Bfs,

New FORK Paper.
The bark Star OF the West sailed from
New York for Bremen on October 20 with
a cargo Of refined petroleum and has not
been heard from since. The owners OF the
craft have given her up MS lost. She was
commanded by Joseph N. Pickett, Of Port
land, Me. The Star OF the West was built
in Greenpoint in 1858 for the New York
and Savannah trade and was constructed
with exceedingly fine lines and possessed
the then modern improvements, including
steam steering gear. She was at one time
the fastest vessel etloat. In 1851 the Gov.
eminent purchased her for $l55. 600 and
she was supplied with twelve guns to do
duty in the West Gulf Squadron. A
number OF blockade runners were over.
hauled by the Star OF the West, and her
officers and seanen reaped large sums OF
prize money. At the close Of the war she
was purchased by Russell Sturgess and was
used in the New York and New Orleans
trade. In 1867 the craft was sold to be
used as a privateer by the PeJuvians
against Spain. The United States author
tiles libelled her as soon as it became
known that she was to be used as apriva-
teer. In 1874 the vessel was rebuilt by
firm in Boston and was engaged as fast
freight transport.
