WALNUT RIVBR FUKJOH.
Auuubta. K*n., June 17f Parties living
north of here on the Walnut river came
to town yesterday and reported the river
out of its banks and some places sur-
rounded by water. They procured soj?«
boats and returned.
1 he river here at that time was nol un-
usually high, but as tbe parties reporting
the high water above came only about
five miles it was thought it wou d raise to
a dangerous point here. In a ibort time
it commenced rising about five feet an
hour, aud finally began to back up in the
low places. Soon it broke over tbe banks
about ono mile northeast of town and
came with such a rush that the people in
