HELENA, February 26.-The immense
volume of water which has been pouring
into the st. Francis bottom has reached
Helena, and the result is that The river
rose three inches to-day. The country
from Austin, Miss, opposite Helena, in
which there is some very fine plantations,
is under water. The Mound place, back
of Trotter's about three miles, is now a
place of refuge for the improvident bot
tomite, as there is high place upon which
the people and stock can get. All OF the
Walnut Bend country in Arkansas, includ-
ing the plantation of Mr. Rodgers and Man
| ners, is overflowed. The st. Francis river is
on high old boom, and with probability
OF its rising three feet higher than now,
The White river has about learned to be-
have herself, and confine herself to her
banks. No danger is apprehended to the
| city of Helena should the water come a
| foot over the waters of 1882, as there is q
| large force of men at work Strengthening
the levees. The steamer James Lee to-
| day took on large lot of freight from
| Kansas City for Memphis.

The Rails at Night.

Tonight the entire city is given up to
balls, and there are twenty OF them in full
blast now, with probably $4,000 or more
dancers. The two great balls of the day
were those of Comus, at the French Opera
house, and Rex, at Carnival Palace (the
Washington Artillery Halll, the first being
attended by from 6000 to 5000, and the
latter by from 10000 to $4,000 persons.
Carnival Palace had been handsomely
decorated for the ball, the prettiest effect
in it being the throne-room. This was ar
ranged so as to represent fower-garden.
The floor was covered with turf or grass,
through which meandered walks and
paths, tringed by flowers in full bloom,
and with here and there magnolia, orange
and peach trees, as if springing from the
floor. At the extreme end of this garden
was the royal party, consisting Of Rex,
the Queen of the Carnival, Cinciunatus
and his lady with their maids OF honor
and other attendants. Here they sat in
state, while the immense audience filed
before them, paying their respects and
obeisance. After the reception, the royal
party opened the ball with lancers and
dancing became general.

CHICAGO, February 26.-For soma time
the ecclesiastical scandal which last sum-

Ritchie, of the Episcopal Church in this
city, a brief notoriety, has dropped out of
public notice, but the announcement that
the Rev. Arthur Ritchie, rector of the
Church OF the Ascension, had received a
call to the rectorship of st. Ignatius church
in New York has served to revive the
smoldering embers of a scandal which at
one time threatened to involve the Estab

Of which is not yet. Father" Ritchie
was charged by Bishop McLaren, of the
Illinois Diocese, with holding extreme
litualistic views. bordering On Catholicism.
The Rev. Ritchie, on the contrary, held
that he was conforming, in the man
ner of conducting services at the Church
of the Ascension, to the rules laid down in
the Episcopal prayer-book. The Rev.

Two children were run over, but were
not fatally injured.
The weather for both the day and night
procession was perfect and both displays
consequently were a complete success.
One of the floats in the Comus process
sion caught fire opposite the st. Charles
Hotel, and a negro hidden in it letting of
red fire was badly scorched.
At the Rex ball tonight Miss Annie
Howard, daughter of Charles 7. Howard,
was chosen queen, and six of the prettiest
girls present maids of honor.
The casualties and accidents of the day
were fewer than was to be expected con-
sidering the crowds on the street and the
intense excitement that prevailed.
One man, Frank Lang, was mortally
wounded, and a woman and child injured
in the crush on the street. The latter
accidents took place at the corner of RAM
part street and Bayou road, where party
of maskers got into a difficulty with the
crowd, in which pistols were used, causing
a panic and injuries to several people.
Otherwise the day passed over peacefully.

THE MAHoMETAN PARADISE, a beatiic

beautiful garden, full of the sweetest of
flowers, peris and angels producing angelic
melodies, while seven happy houris await
the commands of the happy Mahometan.
Following she Rex Procession
came the displays of the several comic So
cieties, giving burlesques and humorous
sketches. First of these were the Merrie
Bellions, a new organization which sprung
into existence only this year, but gave
display for which they deserved much
credit. The subject was
"THE Bellies" and was very happy
burlesque of the eccentricities of fashion.
One tableau showed the history of the
hustle and its gradual rise from nothing
to cameps hump; another, the rise and
imitation and contraction, of hoopskirts
and eel-skin dresses. A very good picture
was a graveyard scene, with party of
bellies weeping over the graves of these
departed favorites of fashion, the poke
bonnet, hoopskirt and chignon.
THE Priority PHUNNY PHELLows-now
grown to several hundreds-followed with
a number of humorous tableaux. A very
pretty effect produced by them was the
umbrella banner. A hundred or more
p. P. P.'s, dressed in the American colors,
marched arm-in-arm, carrying each of
them red, white or blue umbrella, which,
placed as they were, side by side, formed
an immense American flag, several hum
dred feet long, which seemed to wabble by
itself along the street.
The procession wound up with the Di-
vision of the Unattached and the adver-
tising vans, promiscuous gathering of
maskers of all kinds, representing moth
ing in particular. The whole parade was
more than two miles long. The halts and
delays were so frequent, and the turning
of street corners so slow, in consequence
of the great weight of some of the tab
leaux, that it was considerably more than
an hour in passing any given point. The
march, moreover, was very long, extend
| ing several miles up and down the city
from Canal street, so that it was quite late
in the afternoon before Rex marshaled his
forces and dismissed them in order to
make way for Comus.
