LAND SLIDEs.-The low stage of water has
occasioned the cavng in of the earth at the land
ing Of almost every town on the banks of the
Mississippi. The first accident Of the kind oc-
Cured at New Orleans, which swallowed up a
portion of the wharves along the Picayune Tier.
The next happened at Vicksburg, and more re-
Gently the Free Trader describes two other land
slides at Rodney and Nachez. In the latter
place the land had cracked in two places near the
cotton press, and extended nearly as low down as
the Steamboat Hotel. The walls of the cotton
warehouse, erected near the press, were cracked
considerably, and it is supposed they will have
to be removed. A gentleman direct from Rodney,
states that portion Of the town had fallen into
the river, and that two houses had actually been
destroyed by the land slide or caving of the bank


No tTdings of similar disaster at Grand Gufhas
yet reached us, and protected as that place'is, by
the rocky abutments of the Gulf Hills, there
is probability that it may escape the threatened
Observation-Disclosures.
