THE SOUTHERN FLOODS.
The Water Still Rising at Helena-Prepara-
lions for the Worst

ST. LOUIS, March 5.-The latest news from
the lower Mississippi river is that the water
at Helena is rising at the rate of about one
half an inch an hour, and it is now thought
the highest mark of last year will be reached.
The levees still hold, and it is believed they
can and will be able to resist the additional
rise. good deal of uneasiness is felt, how
ever, and preparations are being made for
the worst. Boats and other floating appara-
ratus are being rapidly constructed, and
planters as well as people in the city are fur
nishing themselves with means of escape
should the levees break. The trestle on the
Helena branch of the Iron Mountain rail
road at Longville river, thirty miles north of
Helena, which a week ago was forty feet
above water, is expected to be submerged to-
day, and trains are stopped until arrange
ments can be made to transfer. The men
washed off the Memphis & Little Rock rail-
road bridge at Blacklist bayou, reported last
night, were rescued. At Arkansas City the
water is still rising at the rate of three inches
per day; otherwise the situation remains
about the same as previously reported.
Accounts from the section between Friar's
Point and Vicksburg on the Mississippi side
Of the river, a distance of about 300 miles,
are that the reports of damage have been
grossly exaggerated. The levees there are
still unbroken; no danger is apprehended,
and planters are busy blowing and prepar
ing to put irf crops.

A Break below HeIena.

New ORLEANS, March 5.-The Times-Dem-
ocrat's Helena, Ark, special says: 1.-The Fitz-
hugh levee, five miles south of this city,
gave way last night, and the crevasse
this morning is over one hundred
yards wide, and increasing rapidly
The rush of water through this open
Ing is terrific. The whole country
around the old town is believed to be mum
dated. Other levees are being strengthened,
but it is not believed they will stand another
foot of water, while further rise of fifteen
inches is anticipated, in which case
nothing can prevent the inundation of
the country contiguous to Helena. The
gauge stands forty-six feet six inches above
low water and eight inches below the high
est point reached last spring. The St.
Francis river, at Madison, is several inches
higher than last year."

Grafton the proposals for revision of the con-

fused to court repulse by presenting any
such proposal to the Senate. The govern

matter before the Chambers when it believed
revision possible the present moment was
inopportune The people would withdraw
their support from the republic if they saw
it meant instability and agitation. The
question was one for friendly compromise,
and should not be raised as means Of re-
venge against the Senate. An attempt
might be made before the elections of 1885 to
induce the Senate to accept revision,
Clemenceau, Radical, asked whether the
vote of 1882 in favor of revision of the con-
stitution was still valid. He moved to ad-
journ the debate until tomorrow, and the
motion was carried-276 to POI.
