Great } Flood in est Branch of the
IMME IWSE LOSS OF PROPERTY.
The storm on Friday, says the Williams-
port Gazette, of the 2d inst., caused the
West Branch of the Susquehanna to rice
‘With an unparalelled rapidity and to an un-
usua! height. The rising commenced on
Saturday morning and cogtinued until about
midnight on Saturday night. Fora time
"during Saturday forenoon the water rose at
the rate of three feet in an hour. The great-
est he.ght attained was twenty-one feet and
a few inches, (by marks, two and a quarter
‘inches less than the noteable flood of Febru-
sary, 1853, and twenty inches less than the
“memorable flood of October, 1847—the
greatest ever known in this river.) The loss
of property by this flood is enormous. From
early Saturday morning until night about
“one-half of the surface of the river was cov-
ered with lumber, mingled with farm pro-
duce. The lumber was in round logs, square
logs, boards, shingles and lath—in rafts,
piles and single pieces. Various estimates
have been made by lumberman of the amount
(including all descriptions) that passed this
place, and from ail these we judge that fifty
million feet would be a fair afgount to name.
Although some of the Williamrport lumber-
men suffer severely by this calamity, the loss
does not entirely fall upon them, but rather
the largest proportion of it upon those oper-
ating above this point. All the booms along
the river were more or less damaged. The
Lock Haven boom was emptied and crippled,
and the Susquehanna boom partially cleared.
From fifteen to twenty million feet remain
in the Susquehanna boom, and considerable
dn its adjunct, leading behind the islands at
the lower end of Williamsport. The value
of the lumber that passed this place must
exceed twenty million of doilars, but of
course it is not a total loss to the owners.
All along the river the water made sad
havoc with farms by inundating them and
carrying away fences, outstanding crops,
«kc. The West Branch Canal was also dam-
aged at several points. Lock Haven was
inundated ane communication with it cut off
until Monday. In Wiiliamsport the water
surrounded a few houses in the southwest
corner and some others on the southeast cor-
ner of town, but did no great damage within
the borough further than that caused by
filling cellars, overflowing gardens, floating
plankwalks, and in a few instances coming
in contact with steam machinery.
Including the value of logs gone adrift,
the damage done the valley will probably
not fall much short of a million of dollars.
ARREST OF A DraLgr IN Bogus CoiN.—
Jabez B. Hopkins, a deguerreotypist, of
Lock Haven, was arrested in Williamsport,
on Monday evening the 4th inst, on a war-
rant for passing bogus coin, of the denomi-
nation of half and quarter dollars. When
the attempt was made to arrest him he en-
deavored to destroy the evidences of his
gnilt by throwing away the base coin he had
about him, but his eforts in that way were
detected and considerable quantities bf his
“currency ” picked up along his track.—
His ** money ’ is tolerably well exccuted, so
far-as finish and ring are concerned, but very
deficient in weight. After a hearing before
Justice M’Clure, of that city, Hopkins was
‘committed in default of $300 bail to answer
at eourt. Constable Pollock afterward vis-
ited his rooms in Lock Haven and captured
considerable more bogus coin, together with
the receipt for making it,
A SPLENDID SPECIMEN OF MECHANISM.
—We were shown, a few days ago, by
¥. P. Green of this place, a specimen of me-
chanical genious which challenges imitation.
‘The specimen referred to is a Colt’s Improv-
ed Revolver, which, by experiment, has pro-
ved to be possessed of superior merits, both
for precision and force, havig thrown a ball
a distance of forty yards with the accuracy
and seeming power of a good rifle. It is
manufactured from the best of steel, and
is finished in a very handsome manner.—
Mr. Joseph Reed, of Milesburg was the man-
wfactur, and he has displayed superior me-
chanical ability in this as well many other
productions of his inventive genius. As it
15:not the intention of Mr. Read tomake the
‘menufacture of Colt’s pistols a business, the
patentee’ need not be apprehensive of an in-
fringement.
Dean By Fire.—On Monday evening last
Mrs. Nancy Higgins, a lady who, from old
age, has been somewhat demented for some
years, was severely burned; and lingered
till Thursday morning when death released
‘her from her sufferings. She was left eating
her supper, while her attendant repaired to
another part of the house to attend to some
domestic duty. On her return she found
the old lady with the candle between her
kness, her clothes in a flame and her breast
and arms burnt to a crisp. She is said to
have suffered great pain during the short
illness immediately preceeding her death.
Vocar Music.—Mr. Solomen Meyer will
deliver a lecture on the above subject on
‘Thursday evening next in the Arbitration
room. We understand he purposes to give
lessons during the coming winter. Mr.
Meyer posesses more than ordinary gualifi-
cations asa teacher of music. Let therefor
all who have an ear for music attend.
RemoveD 10 NEw Orreans.—We notice
| our exchanges that Lieut, Hutchinson
of this county has been, with a number of
other prisoners, removed from Richmond to
New Orleans, He was a member of Hess’
company, holding the position ot Second
Lieutenant, :
On Sunday morning, September 29th, the
house of William Garbrich Sr., near Zion mn
this county, was entered while the family
were at Church, and a complete suit o
Clothes taken, together with two pocket
books containing papers to the amount of
thirty seven dollars. Mr. Garbrich ofiers a
reward of ten dollars for the apprehension
of the theif and the return of the property,
or five dollars for the property without the
theif.
Ounr friend Col. Brown spent a great deal
of time and money in stumping the county
for the beneflt of his particular favorites —
better have staid at home and wrote letters
like the young man which is less trouble,
less expensive, —and proved much more
successful.
The Evaeution of Lexington by
the Rebels Confirmed.
A PORTION DRIVEN BACK BY GEN.
STURGIS. !
The Rebles Nose their Transportation
Train.
St. Lomis, Oct. 4—Captain Reed of the
Lexington Home Guards, and afterwards of
Colonel White's Fourteenth Missouri Regi-
nfent, who escaped from the Rebles on Mon-
fay last, fas arrived in this city.
e confirms the report that Gen. Price’s
army had evacuated Lexington.
Gen. Harris’ division, 6000 strong, cross .
ed tne river last Saturday, and when about
six miles from Lexington they met a Federal
force, said to have been under Gen. Sturgis,
when a battle ensued. Little 1s known of
the affair, other than than that Harris’ force
was driven back with the loss of his trans-
portation train and cquippage.
Gen. Harris reached the river about mid-
night, closely followed by Gen. Sturgis, and
‘immediately began to transport his men
across in ferry boats, under a galling fire of
Federal musketry.
Many of the rebles swam the riverin their’
impatience to get across, ana they spread
exagerated reports of Gen. Sturgis’ strength
throughout the city.
On Sunday evening Gen. Price began to
evacuate the town, and his troops were con-
stantly departing until 6 o'clock on Monday
evening, when the last regiment left.
One of the ferry boats is reported to have
sunk, and a large number of rebels are said
to have been killed or*wounded.
Capt. Read heard some of the rebles say
they were going to Baker's hill, a command-
ing eminence cight miles southwest of Lex-
ington, which they would fortify, and make
a stand there.
They seemed to think that Fremont and
Siegel were approaching with 40,000 men.
Capt. Read says that Major Seviere, the
rebel Provost Marshal of Lexington told him
on Friday last that 46.000 rations were issu-
ed on that day. .
Gen. Surgis had not crossed the river u
to Monday nizht, and nothing definite was
known regarding his strength.
Reported Death of Ben McCulloch.
Sr. Lous, Oct 6.— The correspondence of
the Democrat gives the following : —
Rorra, Mosy Oct 6.—From information
gathered by scouts, there are about 11,000
armed Rebels scatterred over the South.
western part of the State, including 6000 to
7000 at Camp Walker, Arkansas, cight miles
below the Missouri line, under command of
young Ben McCulloch.
Major Wright, of the Ilome Guards furn
ishes the following statement: — A physician
well known to the Major, whose name I am
not permitted to use, arrived {rom the South-
west on Tuesday evening. This physician
was formerly a partner of Dr. Snell, Gen.
McCulloch’s army surgeon.
The former very recently had an inter-
view with his old partner, and was told by
bim, that in the battle of Springfield McCul-
loch was shot through the hips, and a glance
ball also struck him on the forehead.
Soon after making his repor: of the battle
McCuailoch, with the Texas forces, was or-
dered back to Texas, but after reaching
Camp Chesapeake, near Mount Vernon, he
died from his wounds.
Before he expired he spoke freely of the
manner of his treatement by the Missouri
ans, and declared that if he bad known the
true position of affairs, he never would have
entered the State. His body was placed
in a metallic coffin and conveyed to Texas.
His death was concealed cven from his own
men for a time, it being the policy of the
surviving leaders to operate on the prestige
of his name. His son, Ben McCulloch, Jr.,
was therefore placed in nominal command in
order to keep up the deception. Major
Wright,who is an old acquaintance of McCul-
loch, having as late as ihe winter before the
last ranged with him up the Colorado, is
convinced that the latter is dead.
Letters have been received by Mrs. Craw-
ford from her husband, Col. Crawford, of
Price’s stating that the latter was hemmed
in, and occupying a critical position, and
urging the immediate removal of his proper-
ty to the South.
Information from New Orleans,
Louvisvitig, Oct. 6.—A gentleman from
New Orleans says that the Federal forces
occupy Ship Island and Charndelieur, and
that they have timber on Ship Island suffi:
cient to build accommodations for ten or |;
twelve thousand troops.
Our informant thinks the announcement
of the capture of New Orleans premature,
but says the Federal forces can take New
Orleans in the rear, and silence their batter-
ies, thns rendering it easy for the fleet to
come up the river.
Advices from New Orleans to the 30th
ult.; savs that the Governor of Louisiana has
ordered all the stores in the city of New
Orleans to close at 2 o'clock each afternoon,
and all persons capable of bearing arms had
been ordered to drill the remainder of the
day, an attck from the Federal fleet being
considered imminent.
The rebels have planted columbiads g
Carrolton, nine miles above New Orleans,
and at English Turn, below the city.
It is conjectured that Gen. Buckner with
five thousand men has gone to join Gen.
Polk, and make an attack on Paducah.
Hou. James F. Buckner, a leading man
of Christian county, endeavoring with twen-
ty others to escape, was taken by the Ken
tucky rebels and carried into Tennessee.—
The remaini ngtwenty escaped.
Wreck of a Government Transport.—Full Par-
ticulars of the Disaster.
Nw York, Oct, 5.—The propller Albany,
which arrived a% this port this morning,
brings the particulars of the disaster which
befel the Government transport steamer,
Jersey Blue, on th? 27th ult. During the
severe gale of that day, the latter vesse!
foundered off the Delaware breakwater,
while on her passage to Washington with a
cargo of Goverrment stores.
The vessel sprung a leak during the storm
and it was found necessary to throw over
board the greater part of the deck load, in
order to keep the vessel afloat. Tt is esti-
mated that about two thousand seven hun-
dred boxes of bread, each box containing
about fifty pounds, and two hundred boxes
of dried vegetables were thrown away.
Meanwhile, the vessel having passed Cape
Henlopen and reached the Jersey breakwater
sank within a few minutes after her arrival.
She was, however but pai tially submerged.
The water rose in the cabins to the depth
of about three feet. Capt. Loveland had a
tent erected on the beach near by and there
awaited help.
The propeller Albany, Capt. Chauncy,
was despatched from Washington to assist
the Jersey Blue, and after pumping her out
and taking a portion of the cargo which
remained, succeeded, on Wednesday last, in
getting her out, when she managed to reach
Philadelphia. The Albany followed the
course the Jersey Blue had taken, and the
coast is described as being litterally lined
with biscuits. The people along the route
are said to have come out in processions to
gather up the boxes, which they discovered,
to their great disapoiutment, contained only
wet bread entirely worthless.
From the Cherokee Nation,
Sr. Lours, Oct. 6.—News has reached
here that John Russ, the Chief of the Cher-
okee nation, had called, by proclamation,
8000 Cherokees around him, and declared
for the Union. Read, an influential half-
breed and leader of the secession party, had
raised ihe standard of revolt, and had a skir-
mish with Ross’ body guard, in which the
latter was victorious. This conflictts with
the recently published accounts from that
nation, but an active Government scout
thorougyly acquainted with matters in the
southwest pronounces it correct.
Official despatches of alater date full
eonfirm the above. 4
errr AA Apt rm
A recent Washington letter says General
Banks is now mach nearer to Washington
in his headquarters, than he was three
weeks since. Mrs. Banks is frequently al-
ternating between the Capital and her hus-
band’s camp, which is supposed to be not
far from Rockville. His force, which is
large, 1s scattered all the way from Wil-
hamsport to Rockville. In some places only
single pieces of artillery and companies of
infantry are placed, while at other points a
large force is concentrated. Gen. Banks
stated a day or two since that he was per-
fectly confident of his ability to take care of
any army the rebels might undertake to
push across the Potomac above Washing-
ton.
“The Life of the Flesh is in the Blood,"
was said by inspiration long before Harvey's
discovery of its circulation had brought to
light its purposes and uses. Now we know
not only that «life 1s in the blood,” but that
disease inhabits it also. Many of the disor-
ders that pervade the human frame, ‘have
their home in it, thrive and grow init. The
celebrated Dr. J. C. Ayes, of Loweil, has
had regard to this important fact in making
a Remedy to cure these disorders. His Ex-
tract of Sarsaparilla purges out the impuri~
ties of the blood and induces a healthy ac-
tion in it that expels disease, This looks
reasonable, and itis true, for we know by
our’own experience. Seldom as we take any
medicine, we have nevertheless several times
been under obligations to the skill of Dr.
Ayer for the relief which his remedies never
fail to afford us when we are oblidged to
have recourse to them.— Catholic, Halifax,
