The damage in Delaware county Pa., must be over
half a million. 56 Bridges have been swept away.—
The old Iron Bridge on the Chester road, below Des-

:railroad bridge bedew Mr. Edwards 'dwelling was car
s;liedoff, and sailed down over the meadows, carrying
away a two story frame house and part of the dwelling
efldr. Wm. Kerlin of Chester. The immense four
leery stone Factories of Mr. Crozier, with all the
looms and machinery are gone, and so completely up
rooted are the foundation walls, that one can hardly tell
where they stood. Mr. Crozier's loss is from 60to
$lOO,OOO. Mr. Brobson's Tannery in entirely ruined,
Ai hiss $9OOO. Mr. William Eyre's Lumber Yard was
''''' turned into a river, and every stick of lumber gone--loss
4 (018000. Mr. Jesse M. Eyre's Story House suffer
/el much--his loss must be 6000. The Stables of De
elsong's Hotel, belonging to Mrs. Engle, were lodged in
gsts main street—loss $BOO. Mr. Kerlin's loss must be
$lOOO. In fact every one in Chester, residing near the
Cesek, had suffered. The loss of life has been very
great. A TOWS named Rhoads, with his two daugh
ters,- were carried away in his house and perished. A
'colored woman named Jackson was drowned. A
man with his two sons and a daughter, were drowned
.ebouttwo miles from Chester.
A genteellooking women, in company with her little
pcm, names not known, arrived at Chester, by the 4 o'-
tdockboat, on Saturday, tend left Deshone's for Rock=

shelter in a house on the road, and a few minutes after,
she house floated off, and their dead bodies were picked
up on Sunday morning. They have not been recogrii
toed, but evidently belong to this city.
Milometer rose so rapidly, that people scarcely had
LIMO to escape from their houses in the lower part of
Chester. Women were seen running with children in
their arms toescape the rush of water. Cptain Isaac

Remedy for the Influenza.
THE Influenza, which is now in almost a universal
epidemic, is exciting the inventors of patent
nr2dicines to increased exertions in the puffing line,
but owing to the general distrust entertained, for time
generality of such drags, people fear taking thom.

clan in New Torii, Dr. Nelson, we think may be ro
lied on: rice
'The object of the present communication iskiit
ommend a single remedy, cheap and of easy access M
the poor, and to el-Larkin them against an injurious oni
in this disease, namely, bleeding, either general or
bX
leeches. In all those cases in which the first class of
symptoms prevail. let the patient smell frequently
a common salts bottle, (Sims' Aromatic Volatile
Salts are preferred) and by putting the vial to the
I I mouth to draw a few deep inspirations of volatile, rust=
ter into the longs. Let this process be repeated tiro
I or three times in an hour. and it will give more speedy
and greater relief, in all slight cases of the first cleat
than any other remedy, and will be sufficient for I
cure. It will also be essentially useful in the sorave
cases; and those of the class of prostration, feiii
drops of amonia, or liartshern. ought to taken inter
nally. A neat way of doing so is to take an old faslit
Toned mixture called lac =menia-I. However, it
ii
as a local remedy, to act on the disordered surface,
that i ts use is advised. The principles will be recoir
