Tremendous Stoßm.— On Saturday last this portion of the country was visited by an unu sually heavy rain which flooded the streets and sidewalks of our town to such an extent as to render pcdcstrianism exceedingly difficult and disagreeable. During the night the wind blew a hurricane, which caused considerable damage to trees, fences, corn in the shock, &c. But those who suffered most from the effects of the storm were the occupants of the lowlands along the streams. The Bollidagslurg Register thus pictures the scene along the Juntata:— “At this place the river was very nearly as high as in 1817. Our Gnysport neighbors, who arc pretty well used to such visitations, were much alarmed, and well they might be. The river above town broke over its' banks and' came rushing across the field, through the lots of Judge Caldwell, and down the main street, fill ing the cellars of the houses, and doing con. sidcrahle damage. Below the Viaduct the water overflowed that part of the borough occupied by the furnace, gas works, &c , and caused a stoppage of the supply of gas. This increased li.d alarm. The water rose rapidly, men and women were rushing hither and thither in quest of light, the fitfitl gleaming of lanterns reveal ing husbands conveying their most prccivus birr n'fus to places of safety, the screams of the frightened, the roar of the flood, all combined to make the scene truly‘alarming! The Chiys burg bridge was lifted off its foundation and moved down the stream about fifteen rods. — flie abutment of the Cove Forge bridge has been injured so much as to render crossing unsafe—an unlucky bridge, truly. The bridge at Duncansville was considerably injured, and the bridges on the Hollidaysburg Branch Rail road were damaged so that The cars failed to arrive bn Saturday night. ' The ‘Three Mile Dam’ is gone entirely, thus closing navigation for the season. In addition tof the public pro perty, there has been a great destruction of private properly, such as fences, corn, pota toes, &c." ' ' . .‘•.SecEsnsas” in tub Clutches of Unclk Ha:i. —The Express Train East on Sunday eve ning had on board a detachment of the Forty f’ecohd Ohio regiment with seven rebel prison ers in Custody, eh route for Washington. In ill probability they will not be permitted to remain long at (he Capital, but will bo sent to Fort Lafayette, or some other place of safety, where they will have a splendid opportunity of medi tating upon the glories (?) of rebellion. They took supper at the Logan House, and id leaving the car for that purpose, one of them lost two dollars. The money was picked up by an em ployee of .the Railroad Company, and promptly restored to its owner.

They wore leather stocks, wKiqh were worthy of the name, for they kept the wearer in tribulation; while their padded breasts and tight sleeves made volition a matter of great difficulty.
