There is.no abatement of the floods, but rather an incrcase.and destruction and devastion are spreading far and wide. Millions of dollars worth of property have been swept away. Starvation stares thousands in the face and great want and despair hover grim and ghastly at the verge of the relentless water. Never, in the history of the. riyer, has the inundation been so ex tensive, nor the .ruin so widespread and complete. , . . . One report speaks of 250 families who are living uton rafts, that; their condition is most deplorable, f The freshet has reached dowji into the sugar growing belt and is sweep ing everything before if. Should the river rise no higher or should there be no more breaks in the Reaves, it will be weeks beforw the subsidence of the waters will permit the reoceupying of the lands in many localities.; lt is a tale of sufl'erinnd woe such fcs we have never before been called upon to record, and such as Wc hope never to be called upon again to chronicle. ununron JCfvieic.

The bird's nan4 w as Billy. He could sing a great nijmber of songs', his favorites being '"The Elephants w alkedthe Rope" and "'Tis but a littlo Fadedeel Flower." Ie quently he would imitate the .shrill whiyt-le of a policeman, and cause orli cers to come running to the store But the most interesting thing con nected with .Billy was his operatic peformances before an audience of mice. The cage wbuld be placed in the middle of a certain room in the store, and the human spectators would 'lastly watch through a window. Billy would then bej?in a low, musical j wmsuc, someming like thecal! from j a tiny silver bugle. The spectator would soon see the head of a mouse j come slowly up from ix hole in the j corner of the room ; a second mouse j would appear; in Another moment out j would come a third, and so on. until sometimes a dozen micecould beseen gathered around the cage. Their ears would be standing straight up,!', and down his cage, much as a prima do na d..es on the stag tf a theatre He seemed to be conscious of the in terest taken in him. and wonltr trill ! his most exqusite melodies. At the end of each song the mice Would scamper away, to return again w hen Billy would resume his performance. A few weeks ago, Billy caught: cold,' and, in spite of all that good nursing could do, lie died. .His body .was buried under an oak, and a tombsto ie. uiK)ui me sizeoi a sjiventoiiar, marks his 1 1 t resting-place., THE.
