NEW YORK HERALD. i on business with this offiee, anc ommunicatioas intended for insertion, must be ddressed as herevolore to James Gonvon Bennett, ditorand proprietor of the New York Herald. ant Novice.—Our country subsenbers will please teke notice that when they receive their japers in a yellow wrapper, the term of their sub- cription is nearly run out Municipal Rerorme.-—We admit that it tell little short of desperation to make a renew: d attempt at arousng the Corporation to a sense of their duty with respect tothe many municipal reforms which have been so long anxiously looked for by all good citizens who have any regard for the health and peace of the city and the security of the lives and properties of its inhabitants. But, however, un- willing the city authorities may be to do their duty, we are determined that we shall not shrink from dis. charging ours. We shall not cease exposing their icttons, and demandivg, in the’name of the necessary reforms, unul the work be coim- need in earnest The ci virtually without any municipal go- aad it is oaly the omnipotent majesty of et for the laws, which 1s one of the most ed characteristics of the American peo- { prevents our streets {rom being the continu- scene of robbery and murder.

He thinks that he repels, with great dignity, and ina very sa- tisfactory manner, the rabid assaults of such prints as the Fourierite organ, which uniformly disregard alike truth and decency when they are contending for the petty interests of “the party.” In justice to Mr. Calhoun, we give his letter entire :— Foi 2 Whines Gave &' hides age hinds owe T have just received from a friend the National Intelli- gencer of the 12th and 15th instant, containing your re- ks on a volume recently published by the Hi of New York, entitled “Speeches of Mr. Calhoun, red in the Congress of the United States from 1311 tothe pre: sent time.” Your remarks are headed, “Political History, ‘Suppressed Speeches of Mr. c: J pre 2 astrong word. The highe: thorities define it to be, t down, destroy ed,concealed; and your remarksleave no loubt that you intended to use it in the strongest and most offensive sense—that is, that they have been intentionally omitted in the compilation in order to give a partial and false view of my CY ead and, for that purpose, a false title was given to the volume. To the truth of this you pledge indirectly your word by heading your remarks “Political History.” The charge is agraveene, and made in an imposing manner, and if true the imposition would deserve the public reprobation. The question, then, is, is ittrue? Let facts answer. ‘The title is, indeed, false—false every way. It covers much not included in the volume, and omits much that is —reports, letters, and other writings. You have notice! the former, and called public attention to it, but not the latter, though equally obvious, and very material in de- termining whether the falsity of the title is a mere error ora fraudulent altempt at imposition. The one might, with some plausibility, be construed to be an attempt at imposition; but itisiinpossible for any ingenuity so to construe theother. Itis impossible to assign to it afrau- dulent object. Butif the one is an error, why not the other? In fact the very grossness of both’ can leave no doubt that they are merely errors. It is not possible to open the voltime without detecting them. ‘The title covers all the speeches ot Mr. Calhoun, from 1811, when he entered Congress till the present’ time, whi volnme contains butonespeech prior to 1838. Again; it omits to men’ any thing but speeches, when of the four first of his projuctions of which the compilation is com. posed. only one ech. To make its grossness more pa'panie, all these are headed “Speeches” Has fraud er been known to do its work ino clumsy a manner? It is idle to waste wordson athivg so plain. ‘Tho whole tile is a gross blunder, ot which 1 have much greater rea- son to complain than eny one else.

He intormed me that he had perceived the blunders before he got my lettvc, and had prepared a correction, bet, owing t some delay in the transmis- sion, it was not received intime. It may be proper to ccd, that the title I suggcated (as well as T can recoilect) was, ‘A. eiection from the speeches, reports, and viher writings cf Mr. Celnoun, subsequent to his election as Vice President of the United States, includiag his leading speech on the iste war, delivered in 181i.” it was ¢rawn up to make it full aud accurate—io cover the whole, and uo more.

Since my name has been presented to the People iv connexion with the Presidency, applications for copies have increased, and 1 have been more frequenily urged to collect and publish my speeches, reports, and other writings on political subj I finally consented to the publication, because 1 betiewed it to be due to the People, in the position I occu. py, to afford (hem the means of ascer‘aining the opinions and sentiments | entertain on ail political subjects, psrti cularly on these which have egitated the country ol late, and on which the Presidential election will probably in a «reat measure turn, That I believed could best be done by publivhing what I had said and written en those questions in a form which would meke tl ble tothe People. It would give my opi: ments in the fullest and most authentic form, and in a manner much more consonant to my feelings then by popular speeches made for the oecasion, or a personal tthe object, it was net only necessary that a selection should be made, but that it should be made from the later and not the earlier of my speeches and other discussions on political sui jects. “To publish all I have said and written in the long period of thirty two years,in which Iheve been without intermission in public lite, would make the work too buiky and expensive to be cessible to the great body of the community ; and to pub lish those of an early date insteed of those of a late, would not give the informat. ended. I according on the termi I became Vi ent, make the selection. That may be fai poiut of time in our potitical history end ofan old andthe commencement of a new order of things, in the midst of which we still are. From that to the present time is a period ot eighteen years, being more than helf of thut in which | have been in the service of the Caion. During the whele! took a prominent and re- le part on all important questions Such was my motive for selecting the period I did trom which the compilation. There were others of a subordinate character which had their influence. It was the portion of my public life in regard to which information (as 1 believed) was most desired. Linferfo, among other reasons, from the fact that (he applications I have received for copies of my regarded vhich marl | speeches were almost exclusively corfined to it. There was onother still stronger. It is the period in which my speeches and other potilostions contain my mature and settled opinions on the principles and policy of the Go- vernment ; adopted after long experience and much re- flection, which have modified, or changed, if you prefer, in many particulars, my eerlier and less matured impres- sions. About the commencement of the period, my mind settled down in the views of the principles and policy of the Government I now entertain, and to which I have ever since adhered, regardless of personal consequences and wninfluenced by party considerations ; thus giving the strongest proof possible of my deep conviction both of their truth and vitalimportance. By them I desire to be judzed, and by them to stand or fail. Guided by these motives, | compiled the volume in the first instance exclusively from that period; but after. wards yielded to the persuasion of friends, egainst my judgment, to include the specch already relerred to, delivered in 1S11. ‘They urged it upon the ground that, as it was my first effort in Congress, and on a subject of Jasing interest, it was desirable it should be inserte:, al though a departure from the principle on which the vol- ume was compiled. But even within this period, a selection became neces sary to effect the object in view. To publish all my pro- ductions on political subjects curing the period would make the volume sti]! too bulky end expensive to he ac: ceptable to the general mass of readers. Here, og in, the ading reason which governed me im selecting the peri. od, governed also in making the scleetion for the comyi- lation. It is accordingly full on the subject of ban'sa, sub Treasury, carrency, turiff, distribution, State riets, and the principles and. policy which shouid control in the admin stration ot che Government. Those which discussed subjects of a sore isolated charscter were for the mos! purt omitted. Brt,ntier the compitation was first made within these restr.cuuns, the work wes thought to be sull \eo oulty, and many tere struck from it which it would | ave been desirahie to retin Such are the fact show it, is tion against the tite. could the sp to be found in those of many other journals and publications of the day, where they are just as safe and opea to inspection as if placed among the public records. To attempt to keep them from the public eye woald only cause them to be more grecaily sought aiter. The very *peeches you have published, as if they were now and unknuwa to the public, are the very ouet whick have becn republished Givers times, and have again and egain been repeatedly referred to in Congress, in political harangues, and by newspapers ; and that for the verv purpose for which you nowrepub!ish them. They are the very last which any one who was base enough to resert to afraud would taink of concealing. But why speak of them #s being suppressed, when they are referred to in the biographical sketch to which you allude,and which, it would secm from its index, ded to be included in the work?

Tue Ciry Financrs.—The two Boards of our Common Council meet this evening, and amongst other matters which are likely to engage their at- tention and require their deliberations, is the projet to reduce the expenditures of many city officers, and todiminish the expenditures in various departments. ‘The Committee of Finance has arranged the propos- ed financial reforms into the shape of an ordinance, and as itis a matter which deeply affects the inter- ests of our tax paying citizens, we append it for their consideration and information :— AN ORDINANCE To Repves tHe Exranvirures or tHe City Govenn- MENT, AND TO PROVIDE FOR THE SUPPORT THEREOF. The Mayor, Aldermen and Commonalty of the City of ew York, in Common Council convened, do ordain as follows :— §1_ No officer employed by the Corporation under ¢ fix ed salary, snail hereafter be entitled to any extra compen- sution for any exira services, which he shall be required to perform by any resolution or ordinance of the Common Council, Board of Supervisors, or Board of Health; unless provision is expressly made ty such resvlution or erdi- nance for such extra compensation. §2.

All balances of sppropriatiens on'the accounts named in the preceding section standing open on the 21 1843 are here ancellet. The sections 8 and 9 shail take effect asif this ordinance had passed on the raid second day of August. We trust this ie not a lure to begnile the constitu. ents of these gentlemen, but that they will carry the spirit of reform much further. Let them not, however, imagine that in all cases a saving of ex- pense is a good to the city. That expenditures should be discreetly made, is required from them, and that exhorbitant payments should be diminish- ed, is an imperative duty, but many expenditures can yet be made for the city’s well being. We take, however, the small modicum of retrenchment and reform which we are here promised, with the grati- tude with which, on all occasions, we receive all the gifts the gods do give us. Her’s Got Enovcn.—A person named Slamm, in this city, has been lately abusing the colonists of New England and their descendants, in a manner which exites the suspicion that his lead is rather more under the influence of the moon, or some other bewildering agency, than 1s consistent with the maintenance of sanity. Some one chastises him very pleasantly in one of the Philadelphia pa- pers, by putting the following verses into his mouth: Poh ! poh ! the Pilgrim Fathers were Poor devils at the bests ‘vhey made much trouble at the enst, Aud so were shipped off west. “Laud speculators” were they all, ‘Their rtor; A pestilentia’ rogues; — “Who sav: fthis?” “"J,”soys Slamm.

There ere 67 cases for trial, viz. grand larceny, 15; forgery, 6; burglary, 23 ; high- way robbery, 2; conspiracy, 1; bastardy,1; assault and battery, with intent to kill, 2; petit larceny, 4; counter- feiting, 2; embezzlement, 1; detained as a witness, 1. ‘The number of prisoners amount to 48, of which 7 are females. It is ‘generally believed that the session will be short, and to ensure dispatch, there will be an afternoon ses- very materially furtherthe business, and the wishes of the J , jurymen, lawyers, re- porters, and who will, of course, be anxious to enjoy the benefit of the couatry air, while the long pro- jected alterations and improvements in the Court Room ‘are being made. These, we learn, will positively be car- ried through during the interval, between the August and September terms. Axnest oF Two NoToRrovs Bunciars.—The following arrest is the most complete and important which has been recorded for many months, and the skilful management displayed by Mr. Bell reflects on that gentleman the high est credit. He hes performed a piece of service to the community ef New York which justly deserves the most favorable mention. In similar cases, when private citi- zens undertake the gratuitous duty of Police, it almoat in. variably happens thet in a too eager anxiety to secure the criminal, they do not permit him to #0 commit himself as that when brought to trial a conviction must certainly result. But in this case nothing was done hastily or Joorely, and justice cannot, by any possibility, be cheated out of its full measure, About cleven o’clock in the fore- noon of yesterday, Mr. Benjamin Bell, umbrella maker, was sitting at the door of his house, No. 93 Canal street, enjoying the delicious coolness after therain of Saturday night, and while observing the passing events, his atten- tion was particularly directed to the movements of two men on the opposite side of the street, who passed and re- passed several times the hardware store of his friend Jas. L. Graham, No. 99 Canal street, and who presently un- locked the door and entered. Heknew Mr. Graham wes at church, and that the parties who had just entered his premises were entire strangers ; so he procured the aid of John Gregory, No. 92, and George Mars, No. 42 Canal street, and placed them on sentry at the door, with orders to seize whoever came out, while he went tothe corner of Grand end Crosby streets, whero Mr. Graham was wershipping, and informed him of the very curious ciz- cumstance which he had just witnessed. Me. Graham, estonished beyond measure, called in the assistance of his friend, George M and together with Bel: they openedthe door witl ight key, and there found the two fellows preparing to dcpart. They at once seized them, and dispatched a messenger to Joseph Jenkins, constable of the 5th ward, and Mr. Braden, city mershal, whe took the prisoners into custody and searched taem. They gave thvic names 98 C Walker, and Jas. Hold gete. On Walker was found four iron picks, a night and skeleton key and $56 in bank bills; on Holdga‘e was found a silver watch, with the nameof James Murray scratched nn the back 2 %19 95 in silver coin, While the ofti. cers made this search, Mr. Graheva examined his desk, and found had been opened, end the very sum ot $06 in city biils, found on Walker, had een withdrawn from the pocket hock, which was all itcontained.

Bell states that the time occupied by the burglars in opening ine two locks, was ecarce as long as that taken by Mr Graham with the pro per key, se expert were the villains in their opcretions. ‘They were securely guarded to the ‘s;ombs and were fully committed for trial. ‘Walker is un artist, was born in Bristol, England, and is 82 years of age, bui refuses to state where his place of residence was. He had been arrested some years ago by officer A. M. C. Smith on acharge ef asimilar nature, bat the evidence was not sutticiently strong to send him up. Holdgete is elsoa native of England, and is 53 years of a—he resided at 71 Eldridge street, and has a wife and chia. ‘This is the same person who in April, 1825, was sentenced for life to the ning Sing prison, together with Stephens and Sutton, for pi at 4 forged check for $5000 on the Union Bank, but who, with Sutton, was pardoned about five years since, Stephens having’ ended his life within the prison walls. It will be recollected that Mr. Redmond, who then kept the United States Hotel in Pearl street, was arrested, and came near being convicted, so very closely dii he resemble Holdgate in every particu. lar feature, and who was identified by the Cashier and Teller of the bank asthe person'who presented the check and received the money, Since Holdgate's release, he had married the daughter of a Mr. Pye, to whom he had been betrothed previous to his first cenviction. ‘Sutton is out on bail on achargeof burglary, for enter- ing and robbing Baker’s Exchange Office of nearly $6000, about a year ago, but the trial for some reason or other has never been called on, though we learn that the accu- sed is desirous that it should. The convict-iriends mtr possibly meet again in the same relation, within the wall of the State prison. A Daunxano’s Death Bep.—Ax we were leaving the Police office, we learned from a Mr. George Van Buren, No. 220 Varick street, that a man named Edward White, who had been employed about the stable of Mr. Campbell in Hoboken street, as a sort ofostler, was found lying dead on the mow. The miserable being had led anin temperate life, and whenever he could obtain any money by the sale of his employer’s hay, he would buy liquor and stow it away in a bottle in the stable. Me was found by Mr. C. about ten o’clock in the forenoon, lying on the floor among the cattle, perfectly drunk, was then roused. It is supposed he had again recourse to the hid den bottle, amd draining it to its boitom, laiddownto awake—but in Eternity—a fearful end, truly!

NiBto’s.—This is the Jast week of the attractive Pantomime of Mazulme, which cannot be repeated at all after the novelties in preparation once take the field—therefore any one who would not wish to be an object of remark like the man in London, “who was pointed atas having never read “Sir Walter Scott,” ought not to miss seeing the Pantomime previous to its final withdrawal. Madame Leon Javelli and the talented Gabriel Ravel appear ina new Spanish Pas de Deux. The revolving status (new series) are to be repeated forthe third time, which, as represented by the Ravels, entitle them to be estimated as “Professors of Taste.” Nothing has dignified the calling of this wonderful family so much as the revolving statues—it is a performance that Canova or Thorswalden, might have witnessed and have risen edified. The saloon will be as usual, crowded. En passant, the best music of the eve ning takes piace after the pantomine in the Concert Saloon, and worthy of being listened to by those having “ears to hear.” ema ‘Tremendous Storm at Philadclphia—Loss of Life.--Whirlwind..--Great Filood---Imy) mense Destruction of Property, &c. ‘ The Storm which visited us on Saturday night, though so far as. we have yet heard without the de- struction of property, was more disastrous in Phila- delphia, than any other ever known to have occur- red there. We have received a slip from the office of the Daily Chronicle, which gives us the following par- ticulars :— Our city was visited on Saturday with one of the most terrific storms that huneacunsed for manyyeears. It commenced rainin; ly in the morning, wi fresh gale from the ‘and continued, with oc: casional intermission, th the day. Towards afternoon the wind hauled to the ESE, and the sky was obscured by dense masses of clouds, which so darkened the fatmosphere that we were obliged at 4 o’clock to light the gas burners in our office, 1n or- der to continue our daily avocations. A few min- utes before six o’clock, the clouds apparently begun to thin in the west, and we: were congratulating ourselves upon the prospect of a speedy termination of the rain, when the delusion quickly vanished. The rain began to pour. The flood gates of heaven appeared to have been suddenly opened, and an im- mense torrent of water came ru: down, which continued incessantly for two hours. It wasa perfect deluge. Sharp flashes of lightning occasionally gleamed through the atmosphere, and tremendous peals of thunder mingled with the roar of the wind and the rushing of the waters. Many of our streets were inundated ; great destruction of property,with the loss of life, and much personal distress, has been the consequence. The quantity of water which fell, and the extent of damage done,through- out the city and vicinity, has far exceeded the great thunder, lightning, and rain storm of the night of the lst July, 1842. The north-east and north-west section of the city and suburbs, have suffered to an immense extent ; houses have been unroofed, and blown down ; board yards and coal wharves swept away ; shipping disabled and dismantled ; cellars inundated, and a vast amount of property Penal ruined or totally destroyed. Philadelphia has not suffered such acalamity within our memory. We shall endeavor to enumerate the incidents which occurred, and the losses which have been sustained asfaras we have been enabled to ascertain them. ‘The cellars of four or five stores and dweliings, on the south side of Third street, norih of Dock, were completely filled with water. Mr. AS. who had a large quantity of tebacco in one of the ceilars. met with a serious loss. { The periodical store in the basement of Third and Dock sireets, was alse flooded; periodicals, pamph- lets, books, papers, &c. &e., were floating about in all directions. Mr. Jordan, the proprietor of the establishment, we regret to say, will lose _consider- able. ‘The cellar of Mr. Taylor, at the N. E. cor- ner of Tenth aud Market streets, in which were enntaiaed a large quantity of dry goous, bonneis, &c., was inundated. Most of the dry goods will be spviled, and the bonnets entireiy ruined, The culvert at the corner ef Sixth and Race streets burst and overflowed ail the cellars in the neighborhood. he ill-fated N. W. corner of Fourth and Market streets met witha repetition of the overflow of July, 1842. The basement ‘ies of four or five siorjes on Feurth street, were filled with water, and alike number of cellars on Market street, were in- mn delog Mach valuable property was here d. stroyed. At the corner of Second and Deck streets, we are told, the water was, at one time, in several places, six fect deep, aud, of course, all the cellars ia that neighborhood were overflowed. Here, also, much property was destroyed. The cellar of Mr. Abraham McDonnough, No. 113 South second street, near Dock, which contzin- ed varnishes, turpentine, chairs, Russia matting, &c. &c., was filled with water, und all its contents totally destroyed. Less considerable. In the Western section of the city,a number of fences, fruit trees, and other matters, were de- molished. The appearanee of the Schuylkill on Sunday mor- ning was singular in the extreme; the body of water which fell over the falls presented a yellow ochre color, and so compact was itfrom the increase of water by the rain, that it presented an entire body to the beholder. The steamboat Sun encountered the storm while on her passage up the Delaware, from Cape May, and met with an accident which will probably dis- able her for ever. All her machinery is said to be rained. The nature of the accident we have, as yet, been unable to learn. She was taken in tow by the U. 3. Revenue Cutter Gallatin, and carried to Wilmington. Various rumors are efloat in re- ard to other steamboats, but nothing definite is nown. There was no peiformance at the ¥ jut street Theatre, (the only one open in the city,) in consequence of the storm, and the bursting of the common sewer, at the corner of Ninth and Walnut streets, which inundated the pit lobby to the depth ot two feet. One of the Boston packets, a brig, lying at the wharf below Arch street, on the Delaware, was struck by lightning, and her main royal mast and top gallant mast shivered to atoms. No other da- mage, we believe, was sustained by the veasel. We were informed by a gentleman who saw the flash, that it struck the water near the brig, and threw a body of it to the height of fifty feet. The Philadel- phia Gas works, near the Permanent Bridge, on the Schuylkill, suffered materially. Part of the roof was blown away, the fences laid prosirate, and the outbuildings completely levelled with the ground. Jo Ce ae fe Market street bridge, large trees were torn up by the roots; the weatherboards of the bridge were ripped off, and the railings laid flat. A small dwelling in Schuylkill Third,near Walnut st., was blown down; no one injured. A small d vell- ing at Schuylkill, Second and Market streets, was unroofed. ‘The stable of John B. Sloane, of Schuyl- kill Second and Market streets, was unroofed. The board yard of J. M. Wetherell, Market and Schuyl- kill Front streets, felt the effects of the gale. The boards were blown in every direction, and the loss must be very heavy. Several echooners which were lying at the wharves on the Schuylkill, parted their ‘asts, and drifted against the bridge. Several unk, others went on shore. A negro man who was on board one of them was drowned. The wheelwright shop belonging to Oliver Evans, Ashton and Walaut streets, was blown down. Part of the roof «f the Magdalen Asylum, corner of Schuylkill Second and Race streets, was blown away, the fences pros- trated, and the large treesuprooted: The Asylum for the blind suffered some from the effects of the storm. Part of the roof was blown away Two dwelling houses between Schuylkill Se- cond and Thirdstreets, and Arch and Race streets were unroofed. The Machine Factory, Schuylkill Second and Vine, was biown down. One men waa killed, and severa! had their legs and arms broken. Smith’s Phenix Distillery, Schuylkill Front and Race streets, wasunroolec. A dwelling house, coruer of Schuylkill Second and Vinestreets, was veroofed, Two other ordinary dwelling houses inthe rear, suflered the sane injury. Tne cars which left for Reading were unable to proceed farther than Schuy'kill Falls, on account ot the in- jury which had been done to the road. Sehuylki!! Third and Wood, a brick shop, for manufacturing gis fixtures, blown down, oue man killed instantly, and two others seriously injared. The rauing on the abutment ef Permanent Bridge carried awi on the bridge itself saved by the remarkable foresight ot Mara Deer, who closed the windows about 4 o'clock, under the apprehension of a storm The “ old revelutionary barn,” in the rear of Pres- tou Retreat, entirely unroofed, vothing left but the bare walls. ‘wo ree story brick houses, belong: ing to Judge Stroud, entirely blown down, and a third uuoofed, on Wood stceet, near Scnuyilcall Second. Joseph West's iiouse, corner cf Schuykill, Third and Wood sireets, a metatlic roof, entirely carried off, and carried to the corner of Schuylkill Second and Callowhili streets, a distance of a squore and a half. Market street, in front of the Perma- nent Bridge, is covered with boards, planke and timbers, which were carried there from a board ard in the vicinity. On the west side of the Schuyl- ti , the road from the Permanent to the Wire Bridge, is strewed with branches and trunks of trees, which have been wrenched cf and blown down. Mr Reese’s house on Callowhill, between Schuy!- isill 3d and 4th, south end blown out—a splendid or- chard attached to it, also suffered very severely. J. Taylor's garden, opposite, also suffered considera- bly. A button tactory on Columbia Railroad Ave- nue, near Schuylkill 34 street, nearly destroyed. Two untenanted brick buildings, between Callow- hill and Willow streets, on Schuylkill 5th, blown down, Two stone buildings, corner Schuylkill 34 and Columbia Railroad Avenue, blown down. Carlile’s three story brick building on Wood be- tween Schuylkill 84 and 4th, unroofed. Phonix Distillery, on Schuylkill Front, near Vine, un- roofed, and much damaged. Darby Creek Bridge was swept away about nine o’clock inthe evening, and two young men, named Bunting and Lewis, who,were standing upon it atthe time, were car ried off, and, it is supposed, lost, as they have not been heard rom. A house near Kelly’s Mills, in Darby, wasalso carried away, and its inmates, con- sisting of a woman and four children, drown It is impossible, at present, to make any correct estimate of the amountot the loss. Suffice it to say that it is immense, and the.e is no reasonable means of calculating its extent at present, but we are fear- ful that it falls with severity upon those who are least able to bear such a calamity. ‘ We are indebted to the Philadelphia Sun as well as to the Chronicle for a slip, which eontains details of this disastrous storm, but aswe have used the slip from the latter go freely, we eupply but the fol- lowing items fiom the tormers 5 Asmall frame house, containing @ woman an four children, names not ascertained, was also car- Faway, and when the house was een it was partially capsized.

[t continued descending in torrents un- til about half-past nine, P. M., when it broke away, and we have a magnificent'day of it—clear, cool, and invigorating. The damage done to goods, ic. stored in ceilars in various parts of thecity, must be immense. Dock, Second, Third, Fourth, South, and many other streets, were for a time completely inundated. Vegetation, however, throughout the county will be greutly benefitted. Several lives have been lost—board yards and bridges swept away—houses blown down and unroofed—and an immense amount of property destroyed.
