March ISth. gives many interesting items concerning the flood.— , an m!i . At time of writing it was impo; sible to estimate | nature the loss of property or life. Although the ex tent of the flood lias not been, exaggerated, and the losses have been great. The writer says he has not been able to ascertain definitely the name of a single person who has been drowned. A few persons are missing, and that is all that is known. The military, under 3Iajor Kiiue, acted nobly in preventing pillage. We quote: IS oi ome GENERAL FKATTRES OF THE LOSSES. Tlie current of water that passed through the city was very strong. The floor in the pas senger depot was upheaval at l>;,Ca ends nearly a foot. A number of flat cars were floated off. few in numl-er. but batte tnx were stru ted and diligently used. A families were taken from the r .• Lou.:--->. Fifty dollars was asked and paid for the use of a small boat a eiagle hour. What Uustration of the avarteiuUsneeS of human i nature !

It is evident that the amount of suffering is great, but an important admission has been i made tome by several citizens, with whom I have conversed during the day. There are a few worthy people who are in want, and have had. their homes destroyed. These are work ing, and will work, us far as able. A portion will need assistance. Those who have been j industrious and prudent heretofore, are in no stiv.it beyond the discomforts arising from be ing driven from their homes, and having fur niture, clothing and bedding damaged or de stroyed. There is an abundance of provisions in the city, and all who are able and willing to work can get them. But there are liundreds of worthless negroes, and not a few more degra ded whites, who have for months been depend ing upon begging, petty thieving, and the scanty alms dispensed by the Bureau agents, to eke out a miserable existence. Their huts, tents, etc., were scattered about in the most | . exposed portions of ihe city, and were gener- y ’ f 1 ally swept away. These arc exposed to suffer- j “jUar. , ,,- The.following is Gen.
