MONDAY MORNING OCT. 7.
The Freshet in the Upper County.
The recent freshet seems to have caused
destruction and devastation througloat
the entire Western portions of the State,
wherever there is a stream of conseq..ence
The local papers bring die s estrous accounts
Ir all quarters.
Th 3 Genius of Liberty, (U niontown, )
says : All the streams near this place over
flowod, and in the north r.i sni ea , tern
parts of the town, c. nsi lerahle damage
was done and much inionve ,ence experi
enced by the citizens A niimeer of fami
lies were compelled to leave their houses.—
The lower end of Pittsburgh street, lowa
street and others near it were impassable
o t account of the water. S ,rne of the
families remained so loag that they had to
be removed in carriages. Jesse Lincoln
and Thomas Prentice, Sr., are the are .t
sufferers. Mr. coin's pr-perty WAS cdn
siderably damaged, and we hear Mr. Pren
tice's loss estimated at from live to seven
hundred dollars. Both those properties
are situate on It . ..Merle creek. Great losses
hape been sustainot through the country
in all kinds of p:eperly situate near the
water channels. A large number of
bridges have been destroyed, some valua
ble ones, and some quite new, and consid
erable injury done to some in course of
erection. Saw,inills, fence", crops,
grounds and many other descriptions of
property have suinred terribly. Great
quantities of corn, potatoes, pumpkins,
hay and many other tn ngs nave been
washed entirely away and a great deal of
land injured by having the soil washed off.
The Fayette Railroad has suffered severe
ly, the track being washed off in many
places, and a number of bridges seriously.
if not totally, destroyed. Tno entire com
munity is greatly atf. , ct d by the damage
to the railroad. Our mails are deranged,
travel interrupted, merchants troubled
abmt getting their new goods, and the
whole order of business seems to be con-
Jused.
On the Clarion river the effects were
most disastrous. The Democrat
The rains on Tuesday night and all day on
Friday' mulled a rise in the rivers such es
never was witnessed by several feet in
depth by the oldest inhabitants. It is be
lieved that the waters of the Clarion raised
thirty feet—plumb. Tno bridge below
this borough and the one at Canonsburg
were carried away on Saturday morning—
there is now no bridge across the stream.
Some four or five grist mills and ten or
twelve saw mills were seen floating past—
others may have gone in the night. Houses
floated down, in which the furniture
seemed to be in perfect order; beds as
though hastily deserted, clothes hanging
upon the porches, chairs, tables, dishes
and all the utensils for comfortable living.
The mills and dwellings at Beach Bottom
aresaidtohavebeen carried away. The store
house containing good sand dwelling of Mr.
Andrew Cock is reported carried away.
The mills, houses and stables from Clar
ington were swept down the stream. The
floods carried away hundreds of thousands
of dollars worth of property in buildings,
sawed lumber, boats, saw-logs, s'aingles,
staves, bridges and all that came in reach
of the angry flood. It is rumored that
some women and children were drowned
in the vicinity of Ridgway. Persons believ
ed that they saw the bodies of two drowned
men floating in the drift below the town.
Of some four hundred rafts in Armstrong's
dam, only two of them, rumor says, were
saved. All the bridges. between Brooks
ville and the mouth of itldbank were
swept away—houses, grist and saw mills
and lumber of every variety wore drifted
into the Allegheny, which carried millions
of dollars worth of property on its bosom,
leaving thousands to mourn over desolated
homes, and still many to rejoice that they
escaped with their lives. Messrs. C. E.
Atsdrews and A. B. Paine, mere:serious
losers at B3thir-hcm. The bridges between
Clarion and Curwensv,)le are all drifted
away. The upper Allegheny, wo believe.
did not rise so high yet, notwithstanding
the loss in oil, barrels and oil well fixtures
generally, was immense. Business men
generally, who trade In lumber, merchan
dise, &c., have lost by the !Lied beyond
calculation.
Of tho storm in Venango rounly the
Spectator says. "The storm of last week
caused serious demsgo over this soCion of
country. There is but one mill left stand
ing on Clarion river—the rest being swept
away. Nearly all the bridges on that
stream are gone. Large quantities of
lumber, empty barrels, rafts and barrels of
oil have passed hero, bound down the Allo,
gheny, without the consent of their owners.
The loss of oil by overflowing of vats is
alsoconsiderable. In French creek, Messrs.
Eveleth & Bissell lost three log rafts. Wo
have never known a heavier rain, nor a
more rapid rise of water than we had last
week. Mr. E. Moran, brother of the late
Thomas Moran, was drowned near the
mouth of Oil Creek, while catching bare
rely that wore adrift. The body ht.a not
been recovered.
The Clearfield Republican gives the fol.
lowing account of the flood in that ree ' lor:
The rain of last Thursday night and Fri.
day caused an unprecedented rise in the
West Branch and its tributaries. Tue
river, at this point, was at least a foot
higher than it was at the great flood of
1847, and the destruction of property has
been proportionally greater. None of the
river or Clearfield creek bridges, as far as
beard from, were carried off; but nearly
all of them have been more or loss injured.
All the bridges on Anderson's creek and
Lick Run are reported as gono, and the
,same may be said of Doer creek, Mosquito
creek, &c., as they all have their sources
in the same section. The loss sustained by
our lumbermen is immense. Not less than
600,000 shingles, it is said, were carried off
from the vicinity of Curwensville alone,
besides many boards, and several rafts of
square timber. Not less than ten rafts
are reported to have been carried off from
the neighborhood of Lumber City. The
destruction of lumber is supposed to be
still greater on Clearfield creek, and on
the river below this, as a great many rafts
were "tied up" at various points, and
others left "sticking" in the river at the
last flood. Most of these would doubtless
go adrift, and be totally lost to theowners.
The damage to the crops, fences, &c., on
the bottom lands, must also be severe. as
the flood was completely over the banks in
many places. The falling of the rain lasted
just '24 hours, with scarcely a moment's
.cessation—the water becoming interesting..
ly high soon after the rain ceased on Fri
day evening--arousing many of our citi
zens from their slumbers to look after nor
tikin outside members of their families,
such as horses, cows, pigs, poultry, &c. The
ern past of our town was well covered

with water, doing some injury to gardens
cellars, &c , but no further damage; whilst
on the river front, part of the fence around
the Upper Park was carried away and the
buckwheat crop in the Lower Park badly
sanded. By later advices we learn that
the bridge across Anderson's Creek at
Moor's Mill is still standing. The bridge
across Sandy, in Jefferson county, is gone
—no.mail from the West since Thursday
last.' Our advices from the east prepare
us for bad news. The flood at Tyrone
done much damage to the Tyrone and
Clearfield railroad, and the Juniata was
very high. but not obstructing the travel
on the railroad.

She was a native of the ccunty of Clavan,

hood. She was emong the first of tbr ,
Order of Mercy at Pittsburgh, and was a
strict religious disciplinarian. In Juno,
1855, she came to this city as Superiorcss,

and since then her whole life has been de

PROSPECT OF BATTLES —By reports
which reached this city last evening, from
the neighborhood of Reynoldn' camp, we
learn that a light between Reynolds' force
and that of the Confederates in the
vicinity of Cheat Mountain was confi
dently expected to take place on Thurs
day.
There is every retoon to expect a fight
near New Crock. Our forces at New Greek
number near eighteen hundred, and the
Confederate forces at Rimney number near
twenty-three hundrrd. The latter are
almost destitute of pr,, ci and have
scoured the country in the vicinity etfectu.

pushing their way across to Oakland, in
which purpose they will probably be re
sisted by our troops.— Wheeling Press,
