‘C’aroiina. When he left Savannah the
rebel! r press gave notice that' they
would permit no intelligence of his
doings or -whereabouts to reach us
their columns,until they could
announce bis defeat. Thus far .his
marlihljas been uninterrupted almost,
andlfissucccss commensurate with bis

whors and how he pleases, seeming to
take jittlo notice of Hardee, who man
agejj (to keep a respectful distance in
advice, <■ and talies good cafe. not to

'presume, will form a junction with
Sehpfield,and with the combined force

however, to speculate as to his future

doubt, and the dosing act of the dra

pnrji.fwell. We 'have cehsed to feel
any‘ajurm for him. no natter what ho
undertakes. lie feels himself capable
of performing what lias been assigned

anything. Feeling, thus,, with the
of victory, on theii side, twice

i The Flood.
/ 'j'po most destructive flood that has i
' known along the Ohio for
ly ypaiß, occurred onpas't Saturday.— '
| Tlje|river at, Pittsburg was 31 feefcO ]
incfjjjs, the exact depth of ;
• Only twice has it khown.to be
bighpr. In 1810 Jn was 3iy leet, and- 1
. in ||332 it reached 35 feet.i The rise
by the show going off with t
: a heavy rain, and was principally from ■
, thjtrjAllegheny river. The destruc---
, pn the Allegheny was
greater than evejp before, | It is esti
mated by the jdillion at pil City.—
Many have impoverished who
before were among the wealthiest. It
Js said nearly one-half Oil City was
swept away. 'The river for miles be
lowfjPUtsburg Was literallyi black'with
bi| parrels. ; The water reached tho
eecppd story of houses in Allegheny 5
nndfJPittsburg. Bridgewater and tho
lowpr part of Rochester were covered
by poveral feetbf'water. ;Wo*canr.ot
estimate the loss, but it'is certainly
* lapjj;e. On Saturday the; water was
two feet deep on the Railroad above
Fypedom,. -causing for a time a stop
page in tho trainss and" producing
mupli inconvenience. AshortdistanCe
belppr Economy tho outside track, oW"
the washing away of the bank,
slipped into- the river, where it still
ropipins. Wo understand the Penn
sylvania-Central Railroad was also
'much damaged,,losing some important
bijipgos. Every, effort was mas made
by I the officers of the Pittsburg, Ft.
; Wayne & Chicago R.R., and the Clove
lang & Pittsburg R.R. tb .repair the
damages and accommodate the public.
;; WeSnro glapl to know that the roads
are'|»gain in safe condition,

Those who have suftereji materially
- frypj,this flood should be j relieved byv
those who, -from more favorable loco-’
tio|i|, escaped! loss. Losses of -this
kind should, in part at leapt, be equal
,zfn'° the different communities, each
: contributing to assist ll|ds§ who lost
