particulars as to losses, but it is quite
evident that the present dieaster'to-the

hand, from, several Western points", show
a dreadful state of affairs in the" flooded
district. - St. Louis reports : that in addi

is threatened a milk famine,' the' water

rather severely in the hearing of Leclcre,
Dumenlin and felendel, and a violent .
altercation took place, finally ending in
an exchange of blows. At 9 o'clock yes-
terday a. m. , the antagonists and their
seconds went to a spot behind the grand
stand, at Longchamp's racetrack. Tin,
