Skipwith, Miss, s. During a
storm the heavy way es caused the
main leVee at Ellslies to give way
yesterday evening, in three places.
Efforts have been made to close the
breaks without success. Water is
running over Ellslies' plantation.
In Steeles, the Bayou, Shjpland and
Portland plantations will be over
flowed. If the water does not rise
any more the front places may es-
cape being submerged. Reports
from Bolivar and Washington
counties are favorable. The prOtec-
ton leve5 here is still intact, and no
fears are entertained of its break
ing.
Little Rock, Ark, S.-Water cen
tinues TO rise in the Mississippi. At
Arkansas City. on the Mississippi
River, citizens have no other means
of communication than boats.
There is. five feet of water inlParker
House, and backWater covers the
Little Rock, Mississippi River and
Texas Railway for eleven miles
though communication is still
maintained. The only ground Wis
IDLE in the town is near the eleva-
tor. There is considerable suffering
among the poorer classes, as old
industries have stopped, and no pro-
visions have been made to relieve
the destitute. For several miles the
track is kept from floating off by
covering ties with railroad IRON,
and thousands of sacks filled with
earth have been piled three and
four deep on the sides, to protect
the track.
Helena, Ark, 8.-The river was
about stationary to-day three inches
below high water mark. Friar's
Point is reported all under water
and the river four inches higher
than last year. The levee from
Helena to Long Lake is intact, but
a high south wind within the next
three hours will most certainly
break it.

Why he Couldn't Have Emily.

One Of the daughters of Jonathan
Edwards, the celebrated thoclogian and
the first President Of Princeton College,
bad some spirit Of her own, also pro-
posal of marriage. The youth was re-
ferred to her father.
"No," said the stern individual, "you
can't have my daughter"
"But love her and she loves me, "
pleaded the young man.
Cant have her," said the father.
II am well-to-do, and can support
her." exclaimed the applicant
Cant have her." persisted the old
man.
"May ask" meokly inquired the
sutton, elf you have heard Of anything
against my character 2"
mo- said the obstinate parent, II
haven't heard anything against you; l
think you are a promising young man,
aud that's why you can't have her. She's
got very bad temper, and you would
not be happy with her"
The lover, amazed, said "Why, Mr..
Edwards, | thought Emily was Chris
tian. She issa Christian, isn't she ?"
Certainly she is" answered the con-
sciontious parent; but, young man,
when you grow older, you'll be able TO
understand that there's some folks that
the grace Of God can live with that you
can't"

COFFINS MADE OF GLASS.
From tho Philadelpltia Times.

From tho PhiLatietphia Times.
"It's almost worth while dying to be
buried in one Of them, said the inventor
Of glass coffin yesterday to Times re-
porter. Henry ii. Barry, the speaker,
who lives on Fifth street, just below
Spruce, has for many years interested
himself in transparent systems Of burial.
After conceiving the glass casket he
kept it secret for long while, until, on
October "a, Of last year, it was patented
He is searching for capitalist and the
reporter became one for the time being.
"Yes," continued tho inventor, II be-
lieve the success Of this thing is going
TO be immense. There is one San Fran
cisco firm that will take thousands Of the
collins to sell TO Chinamen."
"What is the advantage OF glass for
domiciles Of the dead p
I'm tho first place, one has perfect
preservation. Before being placed in
the vial the patient is cmbalmed |
may say that the coffin is devised on the
walnut-shell principle, in two halves.

Of the subject will preserve its natural
tints and relatives and friends will be

"As o sanitary reform it is uDpar-
alleled," he went on /; "tenanted collins
can be piled up like any other mercban-
disc anywhere and stay there for years.
Some people might prefer 10 keep rola-
tives in their own houses, nicely put
away in tho collins. There is nothing
Objectionable about the idea. When
buried ia cemeteries there will be no ex-
halations whatever. and in case Of the
removal Of graveyards the collins can be
taken up and carted away with no more
offense than would be given by so many
kegs Of nails"
"What are the dimensions and shape
Of the collins ?" asked the reporter.
'sThey can be made of all sizes The
glass is three-eightbs Of an inch thick,
and the coffin is oval with concave
top. II would not do to have it fat, as
with vacuum inside it the glass would

1t was just before the last fierce charge,
When two soldiers drew their rein
For parting word and touch Of hands
They might never meet again.
One had blue eyes and clustering curls---
Nineteen but month ago
Down on his chin, red on his cheek;
He was only boy, you know.
The other was dark, and stern, and proud |;
| If his faith in the world was dim,
| He only trusted the more In those
Who were all the world to him.
They had ridden together in many raid,
They had marched for many mile,
And ever till now they had met the foe,
With a calm and hopeful smile.
But now they looked in each others eyes
| With an awful CHASTITY gloom,
The tall dark man was the first to speak
"Charlie, my hour has come.
"We shall ride together up the hill,
But you will come back alone;
Promise little trouble to take
For me when am gone.
"You will find face upon my breast
shall wear II into the fight
With soft blue eyes and sunny curls,
And smile like morning light.
"Like morning light was her love To me-
| 1t gladdened lonely life,
| And little cared for the frowns of fate,
When she promised to be my wife.
write to her, Charlie, when am dead,
Send back the fair, fond face;
Tell her tenderly how died,
And where is my resting place;
"Tell her my soul shall wait for hers,
| In the border-land between
The earth and heaven, until she comes
II will not be long, ween."
Tears dimmed the blue eyes of the boy
His voice was low with pain:
~ will do your bidding, comrade mine,
! If come back again.
"But IL you come back, and am dead,
You must do as much for me;
My mother at home must hear the news
Obi write TO her tenderly.
"One after another those she loved
She has buried, husband and son;

| She kissed me and sent me on.
"She has prayed at home like waiting saint
Her fond face white with woe
Her heart will be broken when am gone,

Just tiien the order came TO charge,
For an instant hand touched hand,

Mr.. Barry then proceeded to unfold
the particulars of remarkable scheme.
He said that he had often heard propo-
sition discussed for excavating and con-
structing huge catacombs in this city
for tho reception of the dead. In that
case. he thought, his invention would
be invaluable. He called the scheme q
trust and safe deposit idea" I'VE

he explained, Sin which collins would
be placed. Spaces could be reserved
for families. Here, in a stall, would be
father. BY his side bis wife; on the
upper shelf the grandmother and grand
father, and above that the other ances-
tors. Each coffin would have number
at its foot, and catalogues would be
issued giving names Of the occupants, for
instance, "HeRry Jones, 241.' Above
the vaults would be u suite Of elegant
reception rooms, into which visitors would
be invited. They could sit down and
call for, say, No. .24l.' An attendant
would 20 down stairs, slide tho casket
