Levees arc Indispensable,

The food Of this year is the
greatest In point Of duration oil
any in the history Of the Missis'
sippi Valley, and will prove more
disastrous in its results. At no
time has II been particularly high
as compared with many other
years, in this part of the river,
but it has been inst high enough
to prevent farming, and has re.
NAMED 90 long as to shut ont any
reasonable prospects. 1t brings
the public mind, not only Of the
Valley, but Of the whole country,
face to face with the fact that the
lower Mississippi must be levied
on both sides from Cairo to New
Orleans, or that great body of the
finest lands on the face Of the
earth abandoned. This Valley is
the great corn, wheat and cotton
producing area Of the United
States, and the products grown
any one year in this vast territory
would more than pay for it's com.
plete protection from foods. The
Government of the United States
cannot afford not to do it and
eventually will do it; ana this great
food will hasten the time when

Office of Secretary Of State,at the
time and under the rcumsnnces,
is the greatest political sematiou

What does it aneant sardeans
discord, internal strifes, bitter
disagrcemenis, hate and malice,
from centertO circumference, from
top to bottom, in the Republican
party. Aud, further, that the
hates are so intense and deep
seated that the cohesive power of
public plumber and greed for pub.
lie Office can no longer hold them
together. At this writing it is
not known who will be the nOmi.
nee, but be it Harrison, Blaine, or
any other man, the hating factions
will still exist, the gaping wounds
on the bodies of Blaine aud Har.
rlson will still appeal to their re.
spective friends. and the knives
Of each will be ready for assault
and defense.
As to the merits Of this Repub.

may not die of internal hemor.
