FROM A PLANTER.
A Mississippi County Planter Tells of the Great Damage Caused by the Present

A Mississippi County Planter Tells of the
 Great Damage Caused by the Present Flood-An Argument in Favor of Levees. Following letter, written by promi- nent planter of Mississippi county, Ark, tells of the damage crops have sustained from the overflow:
 PECAN POINT, Ark May 1o. '93
 Mr. Henry Hotter, Secretary Cotton E.cchange, Memphis.
 DEAR SIR-The frost that we had about the 2Gth of last month did not do the damage we feared. There was large area of cotton de- stroyed but owing to the fact that the ground was in good condition and the weather remain ing fine, dry and warm. all the seed planted f came up. and q good stand was left where the frost had cut it down from seed, which had not sprouted. But the overflow. which threatened us at that time, is now upon us in full force and with telling effect. Threefourths of the cotton and nearly all of the corn, and in many places. potato crops are under water, and it will not now re- cede in time to make expenses. And should the river agaln swell from the melting snows in June, il might remain too long for q corn crop. In the lower portion of this county. and all Of Crittenden, great and irreparahle damage has resulted. and there is sure to be much sui ferlag among the poor people. This county could he easily leveed. A light work would pro tect our river front. our main trouble coming from the water in the rear. And if the outlets up near the Missouri line were closed we could he easily protected by small levee in front. The government levee in the upper portion of our county gives our peo pie the good and perfect protection from the river. but here there is more land covered with water than at any time since the big overflows several years back, and it is earnestly hoped that the people of the entire St. Francis basin will cheerfally vote tax to build up levee though, strange to say. there are some who argue against the feasibility of leve in the face of the fact that they have been built and do give the protection it was intended they should H. w.

THE ST. FRANCIS VALLEY.

The Great Dama ge in that Land of Cotton
 that the Overflow VIII Cause-Th ousands
 and Thousands of Acres of the Best Cot
 ton Land in the World Under Water, and
 No Prospects Ahead for the Drowned
 Out People.
 A dispatch from Memphis, Tenn, of the 18th, says:
 "The tillable lands subject to over flow in the St. Francis basin are now submerged, or certainly will be, which means no cotton in that section, al- though corn may be grown without difficulty. No cotton was raised last year on large part of the St. Francis valley, owing to the flood. The seven counties of the St. Francis basin tributary to Memphis, cultivate annually, when not flooded, 1000 acres of cotton, and the yield is about 10000 bales.
 The two counties of Crittenden and Mississippi contain 1.470 square miles. till 10000 acres of cotton and turn out 30,O GOO bales. The yield varies from $50 to 400 pounds of lint cotton to the acre. The three counties of Lee. St. Francis and Cross raise 10000 bales of cotton annually. and the population is about 5,000,o which more than half are black. Desha county. now largely submerged has 10000 people, of which 7.500 are black, and the annual produc- ( .. c l, l.. {
 'Chicot county, next south of Desha and north of the Louisiana line, grows, when there is no overflow. from 26,000 to 30,000 bales of cotton. There are 10, 900 or more of blacks in the county, and the white population is greatly in the minority. The land of Chicot is equal for cotton growth to any in the world. There are three crevasses in Chicot county. One is IA miles below Greenville. next below Sunny Side, the other near Brooks Mills 3 miles lower down.
 ''The food water from these breaks will pass over 5000 or more of acres of cotton land, then flow by way of Big bayou into Bayou Macon, the Tensas, Black and Red rivers, and thence into the Mississippi river. The Lakeport crevasse is 600 or more feet in width. The break occurred last week, and the roar could be heard miles away. A boat lay by in a fog not far from the crevasse, and all night the uprooting of trees and the roar of rushing waters kept the people on the boat in an agitated state of mind and they could not sleep. As the water had not been over the banks and against the lcvees more than two weeks, many wondered at them giv- ing way. The water was thrown up against the levee some seven feet when the break occurred

Found Guilty.

The jury in the noted Vaughan mur- der trial at Fayetteville brought in verdict of guilty. The case was tried there year ago, and the defendant was convicted of being an accessory to murder in the first degree. The case was then taken to the supreme court and reversed and remanded for new trial. Vaughan will be sent to the United States jail at Fort Smith for safe keeping until the day appointed for the execution.
