Arrival TO THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER The
recent great food in the Potomac river
forms the subj ct Of considerable study just
at present on he psrt of Prof McGee of the
geological survey, who has recently made
some interesting calculations as to the
amount of water discharged by that great
natural artery. He chose three points of
observation, Great Falls. Little Falls, and
the Chain bridge, and fund that the maxi
mum discharge at the two latter points was
6l5 co. cubic feet a second. This was at
least one and one-,hird times IS great as the
discharge Of the fleshet OF 1877. 1t closely
approaches the mean annual discharge OF
the Mississippi and s more than two tifths
OF the "ischargs of that river during the

Mr. DAVIS AND GEN. GRANT.-When
Gsn. Grant was dying in the Mount Ma.
gregor cottage the Boston Globe instructed
its New Orleans correspondent to interview
Jefferson Davis. Mr.. Davis was not seen
personally, but few days later penned the
following letter:
Dear sir:-Your request, on behalf of a
Boston journal, for me to prepare criticism
on Gen. Grants military career cannot be
complied with for the following reasons
First, Gen. Grant is dying; second, though
he invaded cur country with ruthless hand
it was with open hand, aud, as far as l
know, he abetted neither arson nor pillage,
end has since the war, believe, shown no
maIignity to Confederates, either of the mil
itary or civil service.
Therefore. instead of seeking to disturb
the quiet of his closing hours. would, if it
were-in my power, contribute TO the peace
of his mind and cDmfort of dis body.

question Of my estate was broached, and
was much surprised, TO Fay nothing OF my

,hose of any young girl in similar situation
when the Prince Informed me in curt
manner that our wedding must be postponed
until my attorneys saw tit tc agree with hl7
counsel regarding the amount of my income
he was to control.
IT consulted my lawyers and learned that
the demands of the Prince were so unrea-
sonable that they were forced by prudential
considerations to decline to accede to them.

Prince wanted for our living purposes, and
they said two.thirds, and that / could not

quired. told him so far as / was concern

have his way, but that / was bound to be
governed 10 my financial affairs by those
having them in charge. He seemed to think
had 70 ore influence in the matter than l
really possessed, and blamed me for the un-
happy state of affairs.
"To prove TO him that really loved him,
and earnestly desired TO have the ceremony
take place, told my attorney that l was
perfectly willing that the Prince should be
favorablY considered in his demands; but
they Insisted that auch acquiescence would
be imprudent, and besides. complications
would surely arise therefrom that would
render our lives anything but happy.
concluded thes knew best, and permitted
their judgment to stand. Seeing this, the
Prince simply bade me good-by, saying at
the same time whenever my attorneys should
deem it proper to accede to his demands,
be would fulfill his marriage contract. With
these words he left me, and have not seeo
him since"
10 the course of the conversation Misa
Caldwell avowed with much feeling that If
the Prince would be more reasonable she
would forgive him.
