The reports from Louisville state
the river gradually falling at that
point, with indications that it will
now rapidly run out. Serious in
convenience and difficulties may
exist several days longer, but 1t is
probable navigation will be re-
sumed to-day or tomorrow. The
city is now supplied with gas again
as usual. The railroads have begun
to move freight and the blockade
will b.. removed to-day. The suf-
fering among those driven out by
the floods has been pretty generally
allayed.
All CINCINNATI.
The river is falling at brisk
pace at Cincinnati and general bus
mess is beginning to revive among
the railroads and steamboats,. The
inundated district shows a dreary,
dirty appearance ana it is impossi-
BILE to find men enough to do the
necessary cleaning. There is gen.
eral air of cheerfulness and business
throughout the city. The gas works
have resumed operations and the
city is now well lighted. All the
railroads are running and frelghts
are fast moving out.
AT MEMPHIS.
AT Memphis on Wednesday the
Mississippi reached the danger line,
with slight tendency to continue
to rise. A great deal of apprehen-
sion is felt lest there be a repetition
of the floods of last year along the
bottoms of the Lower Mississippi.
The people, however, are better
prepared for it and the distress can
not be as great as it WAS then.
The Signal Service Bureau states
that the indications are that the
present flood will extend southwark
to the vicinity of Helena and Vicks-
burg, where it will reach the max
imum height about March 4th and
in many places it will equal the
floods of last year.
The river at Cairo reached the
height of the food of last year on
Wednesday, but the levees con-
tinued firm up to that time.

The failure to convict Brady of the
murder of Cavendish and Burke, after
all the elaborate efforts of the law off.
cors of the Crown, must be very embsr.
assing to Mr.. Gladstone's government.
That there has been great deal of sub.
ornation and a very unprincipled use OF
power to compass Brady's conviction
there can be no doubt. While it is very
likely that the accused was an actor in
the deplorable Phoenix Park tragedy, it
must not be forgotten that ii he were q
perfectly innocent man the same dis
graceful agencies which the government
is employing to strike dismay to the
hearts of the Irish people would be EN-
ployed with the same success. Tho in
famous informer, with his testimony
made to order. has always been one of
the bhghts of Iceland. In the reign of
terror which the government has estab.
lished, q man who is discovered with u
package of cigarettes in his pocket will
be liable to be convicted as the possessor
of an unlimited amount of dynamite.
Rightly or wrongly, the institution of
trial by jury has stood in the way of the
peremptory plans of the law officers of
the Crown. When parliamentary pre-
eedents enabled the Irish. members to
obstruct legislation, in perfectly legiti-
mate manner, Mr., Gladstone revived the
eiotare-a thing as obsolete as the cele.
brated Star Chamber. 1t is Just pos
sib!e that, chagrined by his failure to
convict Brady, he may next take it into
his head to abolish trial by jury.

that far greater curiosity exists in the

GREAT interest Is being centered on
the Rio Grande valley as result Of the
extensive railway developments In the
direction OF Mexico. In addition tc
being a magnificent pasture section,
large vineyards are being planted out.
while oranges aud other semi-tropie
fruits, it is thought, may be made to
flourish there. After Southern Cali.
fornia, no section on the continent is SC
full Of promise as the valley OF the Rio
Grande. If II had tho perfect climate
Of this section II would have scarcely o
drawback. The most progressive and
energetic population Of the United
States is pouring into this prolific valley
as well as into old Mexico, and we shall
soon be treated to wonderful changes in
that section.
