CINCINNATI, Feb. 14-9 A. M.-The river
is II feet, a rise Of 81 inches since 2 A. NJ.
The weather is cold, the thermometer
standing 20 degrees above zero.
P~ARKERsBCRG, W. Va, Feb. 14.-There
is a reported fall of 2 feet at Galliopolis-
IS inches in IL hours. At Maysville, 60
miles above Cincinnati, the water is sta
t~ionary, which indicates but a very few
inches of water here. Telegraph commu-
n~ication is resumed with Parkersburg.
Marietta, Ironton, New Richmond, Ripley
and other small towns are entirely cut off.
C~INcINNATI, Feb. 14.-The river is
slowly rising, having reached II feet at
noon. The sudden cold last night might
have made the suffering intense, as many
of the people in the flooded houses were
either not provided with fuel, or have no
facilities for using it. In Newport, KY,
this morning the scene was most desolate.
The high wind last night moved the water
so as to topple over many more buildings,
and loosened from their foundations, they
have swung into the streets, until, in
many cases, the relief boats have great
difficulty this morning in passing around
them. The need Of help in Newport is in
creasing, as the stores OF imprisoned
families grow less and less. Fortunately
81, 900 was received to-day from Secretary
Lincoln, and another thousand from the
Cincinnati Chamber of Commerce. The
water is now within a few inches of being
< foot htohor than tho oraaS AoO6 1oat
year. 1t reaches more than half a square
above Third street. The Panhandle depot
is entirely surrounded by water, and sew
eral feet on the floor. The Grand Central
depot has from 6 to 8 feet of water on the
floor. At Mill street the water reaches
into Fourth street. Further west it
crossed Fifth street, and at the Cincinnati,
Hamilton & Dayton depot it reaches half
way up to Sixth street. In the West End
the encroachment extends eastwardly as
far as Freeman street. Lincoln Park is a
lake, except a little corner. The general
expectation is that the flood will reach its
hight to-day, perhaps, or it must by to-
morrow.
PITTsBURG, Feb. 14.-The citizenssand
