Kind.Hearted George Mckinney.

TERRELL, March 0.-Early this morn
ing prominent physician of this place
was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Ayers
and taken to Kaufman on writ for an
alleged attempt to rape the wife of Geo.
Mckinney, an itinerant auctioneer who
was formerly stationed here, but took
his effects about two weeks since to
Kaufman, leaving his wife behind.
Those who know the woman regard her
as myphomaniac This physician ar
rested attended Mckinney through
severe attack of measels After Me-
Kinney wentsto Kaufman he was called
in to attend the children. She wrote
him note through the postoffice, which
was obscene in the extreme. After this
she went to his Office, where she found
him. They were together there but a
very short space of time. The office is
in the back part of drug store. 1t was
during this interview she claimed he as
sayed to commit the rape. The true
nature of the woman cropping out with
this interview, the doctor notified the
inmates of the house of the woman's
character, and charged them to tell her
should she return again that he was abb
sent Another note of maudlin gush
reads: Come by Beck's restaurant this
evening; look up and you will see me at
my window; then come to my room. ~
LATER. When the doctor arrived at
Kaufman he showed Mckinney his wife's
letters. Mckinney acknowledged his
wife's error, she pleaded guilty and the
case was dropped. Mckinney proved
himself just and upright man. He
gave his wife ticket and money to go.
Kept the children and is worthy of the
warmest sympathy. He loved his wife
dearly and is stricken with grief. -Dal-

Work OF the Water.

New ORLEANS, March -Teleerams
from Baton Rouge and other points
state that the broken crevaases at Mu-
latto Point, Waterloo Bayou, and at
other points are still widening. I'm
mense volumes of water are pouring
through. No sugar cane will be raised
in the inundated district this year. AT
Baton Rouge the river reached the high
water mark of 1874, but has fallen two
inches, caused by other crevasses above
giving away. The New Orleans Cotton
Exchange of this City, telegraphed
Senator Jones and Gibson asking that
the Government engineers be authorized
to cooperate with the State engineers
and authorities in endeavoring to pro-
tect property from the threatened flood.
A special from Bayou Sary saws ter
rible wind and rain storm prevailed in
that section. The protection leyee at
Waterloo gave away and all valuable
grass in the Tete country is overlooked
and many of the people have moved to
the high lands. A flat-boat was swamped
and thirty cattle drowned Many small
farmers and poor people along False
River have lost all their stock.

In the last two weeks it has made its
most decided progress throughout sthe
city until now it is scattered everywhere.
The disease is epiZootic in its character,
and usually attacks heavy horses. The
peculiar variety at present prevalent is
seldom met with. The disease first
shows itself in the great debility of the
horses. The animals are noticed to
cough considerably and this accom-
panied with a discharge of yellow fluid
from the nose, showing the presence of
hillary matter in the blood. The animal
loses its appetite entirely in the acute
stages, and all visible mucous men,
branes are charged with yellow. To-
ward the second day deep, hollow
cough sets in, with inability to swallow
readily. The animal loses flesh rapidly,
and is soon unable to stand upon its
feet. Pneumonia is later complication
followed by hydrothorax, and in severe
cases with death.
