taries’ bottoms recede, the destruction
is more fully realized. Deputy Sheriff
Crocker, of Lee county was here and
informed your correspondent that he
was a passenger F ® on the first Mobile and
Ohio tram that crossed the Tombigbee
river in eight days. At that point half
a mile of track has been washed Todg»l ont Gainst and
