THE FLOOD ON THE OHIO.
CINCINNATI, Feb. 10.-The river is now
higher than since 1847. It stood at fifty
eight feet eleven inches at 10 o'clock, and
is still rising. No material change in the
situation. The Cincinnati & Eastern road
is submerged few miles out, but able tc
make transfers. Early this morning the
embankment of the Cincinnati, Indianap-
oils, ST. Louis & Chicago railway, near
Lawrenceburg, Ind, gave way and the
town was flooded to the depth of three
feet in all the lower level. No lives lost
but much discomfort and loss. school
house was submerged above the first floor
Sawmiils and distilleries are closed. The
farmers lose heavily i'll lumber. The break
shuts out trains on that road.

fifty-nine feet and fourth of an inch, anu
about on a stand. The cellars are filled in
all the main part of the city south OF Pearl
street Water street is completely under
water, and skiifs are used to reach the bus
mess houses. Vast quantities OF merchan-
disc are on the streeGs, taken from cellars.
The bridge leading from the river banks at
Newport to the water works building was
swept away this morning, and the building
itself, in which more than 100000 worth OF
machinery was recently placed, is in i'm
ninent danger. 1t stands hun
dred feet from the shore. Large
quantities of ice were reached by the water
to-day in Newport and ruined. The Ohio
and Mississippi road is all right as far as
Lawrenceburg, where the chief point of
danger lies. Superintendent Peabody
telegraphs that he expects no break will
occur. The Cincinnati, Hamilton Il Day
ton, and Cincinnati Northern & Little Mi
ami railroads are not affected. The others
will make arrangements with these roads
for passenger traffic, but have to neglect
freight. More than 200 head of cattle
have been removed from distilleries IN
Mill creek bottom. An extensive break
in Gest street cuts off communication over
that thoroughfare, and threatens the rail
road enbankment.

the bridge. At the foot of
