A freshet occurred at Washington city on
Thursday of last weeK, which destroyed
property to the amount of 940,000. So
violent was the storm which accompanied it
that large trees were torn up by the roots,
and laid prostrate. A number of houses
were washed away by the flood of waters,
which continued to pour down in torrents
fur four hours, and several individuals bare
ly escaped with theii lives. Part of the
south wall of the President's houso was
washed away. Fences were piled up by
the wind, as though they had been placed
so intentionally, and ike crops in tiie vicini
