It is really appalling to read the ac
counts of the overflow of the Mississ
ippi river and its tributaries. 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.

A merchant, whose store is on Ala
Iiama Street, in Atlanta Ga!, lujd one
of the most remarkable niockingf-birds
ever known. 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.
