From Chester to Jrand Tower southward on the Illin ois .".idc, for a distance of twenty-five iiiih-s, embrucing au average width of tea niik-x, nearly all is submerged, and rrops are destroyed, entailing greut loss To the norlh of Chester nearly all the bottoms are said to be inundated, ex cept here and there a high ridjje which is out of water. Information from these regions are of general, rather than 01 a specific character, but it is safe to say that if all these bottoms are deluged as stated, thousands of families are either living in flooded houses or have fled to the bluffs for safety, and that the loae -f crops and jfcncral personal pnpiitvis incalculable. 1 he Ameri can Lt!' in extends all along from .-. imtthing over 200 miles. All tiii.- cut tract is subject to overflow in freshets like the present, and it can readily be imagined that the lo.s to property, distress and misery brought r.r!;n its inhabitants must be immense. The towns on the Missouri ide of the river are partly submerged, as is Kas- kaskia ou the Iilmois side, which is to be abandoned. The people liviug here haue sent'to Chester for a steamboat to carry them awav.

'J hero is reason lo believe that the river is falling, ;u:d that a gradual subsidence of the flood will now take place. From I5r-." klvn and Venice north to Newport, Nainioka and Mitchell, there is to be seen only a broad expanse of water. Three-fourths of Brooklyn is nearly flooded away. Venice is under water. At East ck. Louis all the low lands are floated to a depth of from ten to twenty feet, and 100 h!i:cs hiJVe ti.clr lown floors flooded, and man d them tlu-ii -.-eeond stories.

The river rose three inches during the forenoon. In the afternoon it re mained nearly stationery. Old river men generally agree that the June fresh et has not yet appeared, but anticipate its cmi:;g within a week. IS PKXXSYLVAXIA. Bedford, Pa., Juue 23. A heavy storm inundated a large portion of the town and caused much damage to crops iu this section. AT A'lCHISON. Atchison, Kas., June 26. The river is on a stand. The rise today is hardly j perceptible. The Platte and Nemaha are falling. Of the eastern roads the Hock Island & Hannibal are running regularly today. The C. B. Q. is run ning by way ol Valisea. Of the south eastern roads the Miscouri i'aciflc is broken south of Leavenworth, but is ru.ining trains from here via Lawrence, ! tin. nee t. Kansas City. Tite Omaha ex- J tension o!" the Missouri PaciSc is run- ning only to Ilia.-itha. It is badly washed north of iliat point. The Atch ison A: Nebraska road has not sent out regular-trains for ten days, and suffer- j ed such damage that trains are not j likely to run for a week or two. The j St. Jo & Western is almost entirely j destroyed for a distance of sixty or j seventy miles. Hardly a single bridge '. or embankment is left. It 13 doubtful if it is in running order for two week ; It is estimated that the damage to :.li roads centering in this city will reach half a million. The river is within six feet of the high water of 1831. A fur ther rise of two feet would destroy the splendid harvest in the Missouri bot tom lands. The river fell one inch to day, and there is a general rejoicing over the outlook for a rap'd d- eline be fore the June rise comes. No further danger ia feared. 11S( 1:1.1. AN tor s. KXl'I-.LI.KD. Washington, June 23. Major Nick erson was expelled from the Metropol itan club of this city. THE KKSIiKVE KUNI. The treasury reserve.which has Keen s'eadily increasing for several days, amounts to $112,4 31 ,'j:J0. It is stated that the payments that will be made the present month on account of pen sioas will exceed $11,123,000. The quarterly interest of the live per cent loans due July 1, is sj;500,000. A CORRECTION. It is ascertained today that the ef fects of yesterday's executive order in regard the internal revenue service is to reduce the total number of collec tion districts from 120 to 80, a reduc tion of forty-six, iustead of fourty foar, as announced by the treasury de partment yesterday. All the changes made in the present system were in cluded, however, in the synopsis tele graphed last night. The following statement shows the number of dis tricts reduced in each state and terri tory: Alabama 1, Nevada 1, Connecti cut 1, Georgia, 1, Dakota 1, Wyoming 1, Arizona 1. Pennsylvania 4, Virginia 2, North Carolina J, Tennessee 1, Ken tucky 2, Ohio 4, Indiana 3, Illinois 2, Michigan 2, Wisconsin 2, Iowa 2, Mis souri 2, Minnesota 1, West Virginia 2, Maryland 1, Massachusetts 1, New York 5, Washington territory 1, New Jersey 1, Idaho 1, Montana 1. Total, forty-six. It is stated at the internal revenue bureau that it is probable that the transfer of the offices cannot be ef fected before the first of August. An annual saving of 200,000 will result from the reduction. TILE PAUPER IMMIGRATION. The regular cabinet meeting tcday was attended by all members except Secretaries Frelinghuysen and Teller both of whom are out of the city The principal question considered was in rcHftion to the alleged ship ments of pauper immigrants to this countiy from Ireland by the British authorities. The result of the delib crations on the subject was shown in the subsequent action of the secre tary otthe treasury, who telegraphed instructions to toe collector of cus toms at Now York to co-operate with the commissioner of immigration at that point to prevent the landing of all immigrants found to be paupers within the meaning of the law. In that event such pauper immigrants may have .already landed, as is re portetMV.bo the case with a large nuinbcifVfoiiippod 0:1 the steamship Furnessia, the collector is inrtructed to take all practicable measures to have Ihera reshipped to the port from whence they ean.e.
