B, SINCE THR TIME OF HOAH—THUNDER, LIGHTNING anv WIND—FRESHRT6—DAMAGE TO PROPERTY— CASUALTIES, &C. 5 ‘Last evening this vicinity was visited by a and rain, Whieb ¢eame up irom it was accompanied by astrong gale, and thunder and ligutning unusnall Vivid and intense for this season o! ‘The rain poured down in torrent: tinues to-day, the wi having c! Ting the night to northeast. oeuch heavy and continuous showers are remembered b that venerable and Rs te individaal, « the oldest nbabitant.”" As che storm of Tues- day night thoroughly satursted’ the groundund filled the streams, all of the rain which has failen for the last twenty-four hours has either accumulated in tow, fiat grounds, or run off > augment the water-courses. ‘1 brough the night the water poured in tor- Tents down the streams and creeks emptying into the river and canal. and'the gutters were in many places almost impasiabie, notwith- standing the wide drop* (o the sewers. The canal and the Tiber were much swollen, and the cellars of stores and dwellings south of Pennsylvania avenue and norih of the canal, were generally overflowed. Roek Creek rose rap.diy. and this morning early had attained a heigh. seldom exceeded, except when the waters are backed up by the Potomac, Fences and outbuildings were qub- Inerged, and the stream is full of float‘ne tim- ber, firewood, &c., denoting consitterable de- struction along its banks north of this city. Many of the weod-yards, &c ,'on the George- town and Washington banks are under water, andthe losses wil! probably be very heavy. About § o'clock, & wagon, belonging to Mr U.H. Ridenour, in which were a lady and gentleman and thé driver, going to a party With @ quantity of contectionery, was sudaen- Ty stopped at the corner of F and 1th streets. he Griver discoverea that his horse had sunk into the street. The driver, with the geatie- ‘™an jumped ont and unbitehed the snimal. and pushed the wagon back, and had hardly Gone so when the hor.e and a large portion of the paved street disappe.rrd, baving fallen about fifteen feet into the large sewer at that Point. which had g.ven way. The animal was ijied by the accident. Officer Bettie, of the Secona Ward, immediately berrowed some Tope and jauterns and barricaded the place. remaining there daring the entire night, warn- ing persons of the danger. The cavity proba. Diy extends thirty feet: but it is evident that the sewer is injured toa much geater extent, This morning, at 4 o'clock, the sewer gave ‘way at the cornerof H and Mth streets, and there is @n Apparent depression of the street on the line of the sewer extending wewards New York avenue. Officer Howard remained at that point to prevent accidents, until the might police was relieved The Seventh-street sewer ha’ commenced to cave inat F street, and should the ram con. tinue, there may be 2 large break before nirtr ‘Tiber Creek during the nightrose rapidly, and the water washed away a portion of the new bridge at North Capitol street, although the arch is stillsate. The H street iron bridge is expected to go at Almost any moment, the earth being washed from the abutments. Two small frame tenements, near the H street bridge. ‘were washed completely away, the families in them just getting ont m time, and a namber of gardens along the bank of the stream are sub- merged, and supposed to be badly damaged, | df not entirely ruined. In the Seventh Ward, new gatter at the corner of 7th and K streets, jast completed Festerday, was carried enureiy away. The gutter on Ist street, between D aud. C. with about 40 feet of the street, was carried off. In the Sixth Ward, a beat could have been floated im 7th street. A fisg footway on L street, between (th and [th strerts erst, about 150 feet long, was carried off, as a'so one at the intersection of 12th aud 1 streets, ang the pave- ments were generally damaged in the ward. But few gatter bridges were found here at the crossings (his morning, the mostofthem hav- ing floated towards the Eastern Branch.

Perbaps the ticket-holders would lige to have & eay in the matter. I should for one. Bu ‘what a farce this whole business of appointing committees is unless they are able to certify that the dupiicntes for the entire namber of Uckets Issued are in the wheel. And how are they do this unless they bave opportunity to count and classify the entire number! In this case it would be rather a tedious job to assure themselves that all the 30,009 tic! were in the wheel; and to put the task beyond the reacn of possible achievement, the ers have Spnounced that the sale of tickets will be con- tinued until 10 o'clock p. m. of the night of the drawing! At the Butterfield & Co. “drawing” (of wis- dom teeth) it was delightfal to see a solemn committee — including seme oid fools who should have known better than to be exhibit- sng their length Of ears as well as years—paw- apg over a market-basket full of tickets tossed in a blanket “to ensure fairness in the draw- ing.” when they bad no opportunity of know- ing that a single sold ticket was represented in the heap of slips! The modern style of managing the Gift Con- cert bumbug seems to be to put the unsold nam- bers in the wheel and ge through the show of drawing for the principal prizes: thea to sas- pend the drawing for the time being, whereby opportunity is afforded to introdace a few sold numbers inco the wheel. whereby a few gud- geons stand a chance of drawin; specimen of small-try «cent-a-grab jewelry 1 would recommend that the ticket-holders insist upon the tickets being counted prior te going into the wheel for the drawing of the Principal prizes: also, that they insist upon the Gtle deeds to the real estate being exhibited Prior to the drawing.
