water In the Mississippi Delta Slow
ly Recetfng.

1y Recedfng.
Memphis, Tenn, April l.. The
water in the Mississippi delta is slowly
receding. Reports received here from
the ~overfowed country are most en-
couraging. The day has been an ideal
one and every plante- is in better
spirits. At Greenyille the river, as
well as the backwater surrounding the
town, is stationary. Everything is i'm
readiness for the receipt and distribu-
ton of provisions from the govern
ment. and as soon as the army officers
arrive the work will be actively en-
tered into. AT Lula, Miss, a decided
improvement is noted. There is still
some suffering in the back country,
bnt it is being alleyiated by the plant
ers, and to-day n representative of the
government arrived and will assist the
destitute at once The YaZoo & Mis-
sissippi railroad has been busy with
pledrivers replacing washouts ard
bridges. The road will probably have
trains running into Lula and Clarks
dale by tomorrow. 1t is now believed
the water will disappear by May 1, and
II this proves true Il fair crop can be
made. The overflow will leave a sed-
iment or deposit which greatly enriches
the soil and the planters may be yet
able 10 balance their big account with
the Father of Waters. The river is
falling here. At Vicksburg and all
points south a steady rise Is noted.
