Moore, of the third cavalry, stating that on the 3ist of May last, at Qo'clock p. m.,a terrible freshet, without any arent cause, swept down the Republican valley, at Blackwood creek, carrying away everything before it. Men, horses, tents, army wagons were swept along like corks. The val ley of Blackwood is about forty-five miles long and about one mile toa mile andahalf wide The entire stretch of country was one raging torrent, at least from six to seven feet deep The only thing that prevented total destruc tion was the fact that the camp was surrounded by # belt of timber on three sides, and as the men were carried off by the current, they were enabled to save themselves by catching th limbs of trees. When day broke it showed al most allthe men of the comp of the trees, without any cover nants of underclothes. Up to this time nothing was to be seen of what had been the camp exept the top of a army wagon which had stuck toa log on the ground, and in the wagon were collected eleven men. Six of the company were drowned at twenty-six horses lost. The names of the me drowned are smith Edward P. Doe Privates Lewis Cobn, Theo. Froendle, Denn FS Mahoney, William G.
