Pointe Coupee, and has come back to
Bayou Sara. Her arrival was God
send to the people whose lives are in
jeopardy, for she has not only already
saved an incalculable amount of prop
erty, but a goodly number of lives. The
real condition of things in the overflow
ed districts is just coming to light. No
pen is equal to the task Of picturing the
devastation Of the country or the desc
lation Of the people. The entire front
of Pointe Coupee is under water, and
most of the leveeS have gone. The
water back Of the leyees is so deep
now that hundreds Of lives are
in jeopardy. The small stretches
Of leyee still standing are crowded with
men women and children, side by side
with horses, mules and cows. In an old
raised gin house five hundred negroes
were found huddling together The
condition Of the unfortunate blacks was
pitiable They were afraid Of their
lives and were piteously begging To be
taken to some place of safety. The
creyasSe at Allendale will overflow
thirty of the finest plantations on the
river. 1t will reach the Teche country
several days in advance Of the Morgan

this water joins with the Morgansee ii
will overflow the entire Atchalafaya,
Lafourche, and Teche countries. The
damage is incalculable. The distress In
