• 'sl,,*sti 'tram on the Cleveland and
PittlibUrgb Railroad, which left this city
on.Timfty night, was met at Rochester by
the littelllgence that the splendid railroad
bridge of the company across -the mouth
of Beaver creek, just beyond that point,
had been swept away by a sudden rise in
the creek, which, with.the immense piles
of drift' Weed it brought ) tore down all the
piers, leaving only the:abutments stand
bag. Thelrain returned to the city with
its•pitiStehgers and no other train went or
caini,ti'pon the road yesterday. A small
bridge, over the mouth of Little Beaver
creek, at Smith's Ferry, on the same road,
was also swept away. Tne destruction of
a portion of the telegraph line along the
road prevented intelligence of any further
disaster_,_Which tire feared.
The damage upon the Pittsburgh, Fort
Wayne and Chicago Railroad was also se
rious A culvert was washed away at
IlomeWood, five miles below New Brigh
ton, and a'single span bridge at New Gall,
100, over. tba -tittle Beaver, was also wash
ed away. %telegraphic communication was
broken by the destruction of the bridges
and nailing is known of the condition of
the road ' , beyond Darlington. No trains
pastedi'eitlier way yesterday. A large
force lie at' Work repairing the breaks in
the road and , by this evening, trains will
be running as usual.
Travel upoti:the Allegheny Valley Rail..
road was also "Impeded by a land.slide, be.
tween Logait's Point and Kittanning, bat
the obstriaitietwould, it was expected, be
removed lest evening and travel resumed
as usual today, provided the road has not
since been washed away in other places, es
the river continued to rise rapidly yester
day. -
The Freeport aqueduct is also said to
have given way.
The Pittsburgh and Cleveland Railroad
Company have made arrangements for
sending their passengers by river and have
()bartered a steamer for the purpose. Their
pecuniary loss will be heavy, as the bridge
swept away, which was four hundred feet
long. and built only a few years since, cost
$60,000. It will be rebuilt at as early a
day as possible. ..
The Monongahela and Allegheny rivers
both rose rapidly yesterday. Along the
former little damage was done. Chartiers
creek, Turtle creek, Saw Mill Ran and
Four Mile Run overflowed their banks and
a number of houses were inundated.—
Several rafts came down the Allegheny,
which was very high, and carried large
+ldentities of drift wood. One flat, on
whlobWiiiiifa man and horse, struck a pier
°rime ala bridges and broke in pieces.
The inhlilrirtua-aahore and the horse was
saved by persons who went after it in a
skiff.
In addition to the destruction of rail
toad bridges, ice,on the Beaver, private
property has materially suffered. A prig
vatedespatch informs us that the stream
began to rise at ten o'clock On Monday
night, and in three hours had risen twelve
feet, carrying away the twine factory of A.
Bentley, who loses $7,000 in stock and
machinery. Coale's bucket and tub factory
was seriously damaged, and a race used Dy
Mr. C. and other manufacturers between
the canal tind creek, was torn away. A
portion of the - ground about Mr. Coale's
dwelling vas washed out, and the water
was then within a few feet of the house.
Above New Brighton the water was three
feet above the floors of the dwellings. The
packet from New Castle was carried over
the dams, and when last seen was going
into the Ohio river at. a fearful rate, the
p_assengers calling loudly for assistance.—
Tbe total loss by the freshet in the vicinity
of New Brighton was estimated at $15,4.01,
The washing away of one of the three
dams over the Beaver is also rumored, but
of this wethave no confirmation.
They Pennsylvania Railroad was not in.
Jared blr the freshet, and the trains were
all on tune yesterday.
Of oourae the damage and loss in the
country districts has been serious and we
shall look with anxiety for the particulars.
—We learned last night that two or
three hundred feet of trestle-work, beyond .
Darlingten, on the Pittsburgh, FL Wayne
and•Ohleago Railroad, were washed 'away
and that workmen, with the necessary'
timbers were being shipped for the purpose
of repairing the damage.

PLownro OIL Warr,[.—Qa Freddy last
living well 'was -opened by Kier E 4
Donnell, on G. -W. MoOlintock's farm,
Oil Creek. When the vein was opened it
;flowed with immense force, throwing a
stream of oil, the full size of the pipe, six
• ty or seventy feet into the air. Large
quantities poured down into the creek. At
• &nous places below, individuals threw
out booms into the creek, and so stopping
the oil, collected it in various amounts of
from five to sixty barrels. As soon as
practicable, tubing with a seed bag was
inserted into the pipe of the well, to cow,
duct the oil into a tank by the old pump..
ing well. The upward prei.sure was so
great as to render it difficult to set the
tubing down to its place. Here were se•
cured about two hundred and ninety live
barrels of oil from between five and six
o'clock, P. M., to seven o'clock the next
morning, considerable quantities fi,Wing
away at the same.tine. On Saturday the
oil was flowing from the woll faster than
two men could barrel it.

Des Rtes.—The Cleveland Herald, o
Saturday, says : "Dan Rice and his daugh
ter went home to Girard from the West,
this morning. They had with them a
beautiful doe and fawn, presented them by
a brother of Ex Senator Rico, of Minne
sota. Dan says he had been through all
parts of Seceesia, and has seen secession in
all its forms. The coldsblooded _murders
and inhuman outrages that he has seen
committed on unoffenning persons, merely
for expressing Union sentiments, has sick
ened him of the South, and his 'voice is
for war' to the last gap. "
HON. JOHN C. BEEMINRIDGB and

the surface of an old well in a cellar. If

WASIIINOTON, Aug. 13 —By the Presi

Lion: Whereas; a joint committee of both
Houses of Congress has waited on the
President of the United States and request
ed him to recommend a day or public
humiliation, prayer and fasting, to be ob.
served by the people of the United States
with religious solemnities, and the offering
of fervent supplications to Almighty God
for the safety and welfare of these States,
His blessing on their arms and a speedy
restoration to peace ; and whereas, it is fit
and becoming in all people, at all times, to
acknowledge and revere th a supreme gov,.
ernment of God, to bow in humble sub..
mission to hie chastisements, to confess and
deplore their sins and transgressions, in
full conviction that the fear of the Lord is
the beginning of wisdom, and to pray with
all fervency and contrition for the pardon
of their past offences and for a blessing
upon their present and prospective actions;
and whereas, when our beloved country
once, by the blessing of God, united, pros
porous and happy, is now afflicted with
factions and civil war, it is peculiarly fit
for us to recognize the hand of God in this
visitation, and in sorrowful remembrance
of our own faults and crimes as a nation,
and as individuals to humble ourselves be.
fore Him, and to pray for His mercy. To
pray that we may be spared further punish
ment though most justly deserved, that
our arms may be blessei and made effectual
for the re-establishment of law, order and
peace throughout our country, and that
the inestimable boon of civil and religious
liberty, earned under His guidance and
blessing by the labors and sufferings of our
fathers, may be restored in all its original
excellency. Therefore, I. Abraham Lin
ooln, President of the United States, do
appoint the last Thursday in September
next as a day of humiliation, prayer and
fasting for all the people of the nation, and
I do earnestly recommend to the people,
and especially to all ministers and teachers
of religion, of all denominations, and to
all heads of families, to observe and keep
that day according to their several creeds
and modes of worship, in all humility and
with all religious solemnity, to the end that
the united prayers of the nation may as

down plentiful blessings upon our own
country,

Sewer lioox, Aug. 12.—The N. Y.
Nineteenth volunteers are now command
ed by Maj. Leslie, Col. Clark being still
under arrest, and Lieut. Col. Seward bay
trig obtained leave of absence on account
of sickness. This regiment keeps watch
on both sides of the Potomac, from Sandy
Hook to Berlin. Lsat Wednesday news
reached Major Leslie that a force of up.
wards of one hundred rebel cavalry were
at Lovettsville, Loudon county, where
they were pressing and oppressing the
Union inhabitants. Detachments amount
ing to one hundred men, under command
of Captain Kennedy, of company B, act
oompanied by Captain Stevens, of compa
ny F, and Surgeon F. Duron, crossed the
river at Bock Ferry, at one o'clock on
Thursday morning, and after a difficult
march of seven miles reached Lovettaville
about daylight. Ascertaining that the
rebels had left, they retrenched their route
two miles toward the river, in hopes that
the rebels would follow them. As soon
as the latter discovered the weakness of
Capt. Kennedy's force hero with the Union
men, they formed an ambush, where they
laid concealed until two o'clock p. m.,
when, ascertaining that the rebels had not
returned, they continued on their return.
When about three miles from the river
they were overtaken by a boy with the in
formation that one hundred and thirty of
Stewart's rebel cavalry had reoccupied the
town. Tired, worn out, and almost shoes
less and very hungry, the poor fellows with
a shout at once voted unanimously to re
turn and attack the rebels. Starting at a
double quick they gained sight of the
town, and under cover of a corn held
gained sight of the cavalry. Resting for
a few minutes they heard the rebel Capt.
give the order to mount, and believing
that they had been discovered and were
about to be charged upon, Captain Ken
nedy charged on the town at a double
quick, firing a few harmless shots, making
their way, concealed by the houses, out at
the opposite side °Ulla town but not until
they had one Lieutenant killed and five
wounded as wacascertained from a person
who came into town soon afterward.

WABIIINOTtIN CITY, Aug. 13 --J. Lath
rop Molloy, recently appointed minister to
Austria, will at once repair to Vienna.—
All the important consular positions are
now filled, and it is believed that there is
no longer any representative of the gov
ernment abroad who is not its loyal friend
and supporter. The President to-day ap.
pointed Col. Hunter, who commanded a
column in the live engagement, to be a
Major General, and Mal Stoneman of the'
cavalry, W. F. Smith of the Topographi•
cal corps, and W. H. Benham of the engi,
neon to be Brigadier Generals of the vol.
unteer forces.
The Potomac flotilla is still actively em
ployed, Capt. Craven, on board the Yana
kue, informs the Department that ho will
report in person the circumstances attend
tug the capture of ton negroes.
Oa the evening of the 11th inst., a negro
came on board and mentioned the name of
an individual who has boon exceedingly
active in procuring supplies for the rebels,
including anus, ammunition and men, and
sending them in boats from Herring Creek,
over into Virginia. He further said that
this agent bad assistants in forwarding re.
=its at various landings, and that at Her
ring Creek there was a minister acting as
a Southern spy. Capt. Budd, of the Ileao
luto, it appears, broke up the depot at
Herring Creek. In going to the Creek h 3
was fired at with muskets. He, however,
landed, and destroyed 4# premises, and
captured a large boat he Witnd there. A
party of secessionists (rein Maryland were
sheltering in a house, but they soon escaped
into the woods. Capt. Rudd and his party
chased them for a mile, bat owing to sups.
rior fleetness they soon got beyond the
reach of him.
The Captain took the contrabands of
Colonel Brown, who was the receiver and
distributor of Col. Brown of supplies and
recruits. Of course his property, being
used for these purposes, Is confiscated. The
foreman of the contraband, who, it is added,
is a remarkably intelligent fellow, inform.
ed Captain Rudd that an expedition is
organized in Machodoc, Va., to capture
any of the schooners which may anchor or
be calmed in that vicinity.
Capt. Craven says that on the shore of
the Potomac not ono in twenty of the in
habitants is a true Union man, and Isom°.
times think there are many hundreds of
them organized into companies, and per
haps rments, prepared to act against the
Government at any moment.
liz.Minister Faulkner is still in jail
which is strictly under military guard. He
will soon probably bo removed to the more
comfortable quarters of the Provost Mare
stud. Ii is believed by the government
that he has been holding correspondence
with the enemy through the Southern
Commissioners at Paris, and that a regi
ment at Richmond is waiting for him to
take command of it against the United
States. Besides something like retaliation
may be intended, in view of the fact that
McGraw and Harris, who went to Manas
sas on an errand of mercy, while declar
ing themselves neutral, were seized and
thrown into prison.
'The Navy Department ever since the 31st
of March last, has been unable to hear
from Lieut. Roger Perry, to whom it has
repeatedly addressed orders. He seems to
be mysteriously among the missing.
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 13.—A number
of the business firms in this city, publish

mation must be of great importance to the
army, do hereby agree to withdraw our
subscriptions and advertisements from any
newspaper which shall continue to furnish
information of the military movements of
our government.
lizw YORK, August 13.—The brig
Foam from Ourracoa reports that the pi
rate steamer Sumter, arrived there on the
17th ult., and was allowed by the Govern.
or to coal up and refit against the protest
of the United States consul. She left on
the 29th ult. Her crew had liberty on the
shore during her detention and committed
many outrages.
WAfilinicaori CITY, August 13,—The
War Department to-day received a des.
patch from Major General Fremont say»
in .g among other things that Gen. Lyon's
Aid reports an engagement, with severe
Ices an both sides, and General Lyon,
killed. General Siegel in command was
retiring in good order from Springfield
towards Bolls.
NASHVILLZ, Tenn., August 12.—Judge
