Saturday Feb., 17, 1883. 
The present rise of the Ohio River is the 
greatest ever known. On Wednesday last it 
reached (57 feet above low water mark at Cin¬ 
cinnati, and about ten miles of the river 
front was under water, all the railroads were 
covered, and the destruction of property has 
been enormous. The people talk of nothing 
le» than millions. From 40,000 to 50,000 
people have been, thrown out of em¬ 
ployment. Many lives are known to have been 
lost, how many will probably be never learned, 
Newport and Covington are in great part sub¬ 
merged. Great destitution is being generously 
relieved by means of soup kitchens, etc. Thous¬ 
ands of the homeless find shelter in sehool- 
bousos and churches. Great, destruction of 
•stock as nearly all the dairies and distillery- 
fed cattle were in the low ground along the 
river. At Louisville the destruction of prop¬ 
erty and loss of life are even heavier. A darn 
protecting the low eastern part, of the e ity 
gave way about midnight on Monday and the 
yellow, turbulent flood, falling from 18 to 130 
feet, rushed upou the sleeping inhabitants who 
fled half-naked for dear life. The scene was 
awful as meu, women and children floundered 
screaming through the rising, roaring waters. 
About. 30 lives reported lost; and it is feared 
many ghastly corpses will be found in the 
wrecked and abandoned buildings. Jeffer¬ 
sonville, Ind.. is under from two to twenty 
feet of water and 7,000 people are destitute. 
Portland is half-submerged. In Lawrence- 
burg 5,000 people are homeless. Madison, Ind., 
mostly under water. Milton, Ky.. immedi¬ 
ately opposite, is completely submerged. Six 
hundred families are homeless in New Al¬ 
bany. In Evansvile, Ind., the damage is not 
heavy, but the destruction is terrible ou the 
low lands between that place and Henderson, 
Ky. At Marietta , Ohio, Wheeling and Park- 
ersburg,, W. Va. and other places ou the Up¬ 
per Ohio the destruction of property is heavy 
and the suffering among the poor grievous. . .

solicited from everywhere for this Department. 
Saturday, Feb. 17, 1883. 
The Cuban toiiacco crop promises fit lie 
abundant and of excellent, quality. 
Accounts from Clticago say that the peach 
crop through Central and Western Illinois 
and part of Missouri, “is practically wiped 
out;” but in the Southern part of Illinois the 
buds are thrifty.Pensioner sold ieis. 
Secretary Teller says, are not entitled to land 
unless they go on a tract and settle upon it 
and improve and cultivate it. A pensioner 
complained that he seut money to a firm in 
Washington that, offered to locate and sell 1(50 
acres of land for soldiers under the Soldiers' 
Homestead Law. Of course, it was a sw indle 
and there are numerous swindlers throughout 
the country who are trying to cheat old soldiers 
out of their money on similar pretexts; for 
they always want ‘‘fees" in advance .•. . . . 
The first annual meeting of the Kansas State 
Cane-growers’ and Manufacturers’ Associa¬ 
tion will be held at Topeka on Feb. 21. ....... 
The annual meeting of the Cherokee Strip 
Stockmen’s Association will be held at Cald¬ 
well, Kans., on March (5 .No American 
grape-vines are admitted into South Austra¬ 
lia through fear of phylloxera.The cran- 
bery crop of the United States in 1882 is esti¬ 
mated at 322,171 bushels, against 401.025 
bushels in 1881, a falling off of 30 per cent. 
The yield iu New Jersey was 78,507 bushels; 
in New’ England, 101,(5(54; Long Island. 2,000; 
and the West, 50,000 bushels.Gen. 
Beauregard believes that the mud ol‘ the streets 
of St. Louis would make an excellent fertil¬ 
izer for Louisiana sugar planatious, because 
the limestone ground off the rough pavements 
in great quantities would correct the acidity 
of the soil. He is making an experiment with 
several tons of the stuff.The 
Secretary of the Interior has asked for an ap¬ 
propriation of $348,400 to supply with, oxen and 
cows 2,(580 families of Sioux Indians who have 
gone to farming at the Standing Rock. Pine 
Ridge, Rosebud, Cheyenne River, Craw Creek, 
Lower Brule and Santee Agencies. 
The Secretary of the Interior lias decided that 
railroads are not limited to lands immediately 
adjoining the road in cutting ties and obtain¬ 
ing other constraetion material intended for 
the use of railroads.A telegram from 
San Antonio, Texas, on the 18th says the loss 
of cattle in that. State from the recent “ cold 
wave ” will not be over three per cent-.—say 
135,000 head out of a total of 4,500,000. 
The greatest loss will be in the hedge- 
grass district within a 100-mile circuit of 
that city. The loss in Southwestern Kansas 
is put at twfl per cent., chiefly among import¬ 
ed Texans. Telegrams from Cheyenne say 
the losses were trifling in the ranges of the 
Anglo-Americau Cattle Company along the 
Cheyenne River and Hot, Creek, while on the 
ranges of the National Cattle Company, 75 
miles north of Cheyenne, stocks are in fine 
condition and the wind has blow-u the snow 
off, giving plenty of feed. 
According to the Department of Agriculture 
the cotton crop is over (>,800,000 bales. The 
returns are nearly unanimous iu declaring the 
staple larger than usual, whiter and compara¬ 
tively free from trash. It is probable that 
about 17 per cent of the crop still remains the 
in fanners’ hands.A bill to allow Can¬ 
adian fanners to bring wheat and corn into the 
United States in wagons, duty-free, where the 
flour is to be carried over the Border again, 
lately passed Congress after several failures. . 
. . . . Senator Hoa r proposes an amendment 
to the Bankrupt Bill now before Congress, 
making it lawful to begin proceedings against 
any business-man dealing iu “options” of any 
kind without further evidence of insolvency— 
a remedy as bad as the disease it pretends to 
heal.New flouring mills—of the roller 
style, of course—are being invented so rapidly 
that the number of milling buildings mil have 
to be rapidly multiplied if each is to have 
only one sort of mill.
