JOHN READY espe as commenc street, where he w forms his friends b thankfully receive ‘she may be favored with on the dyer In the afternoon the rain became heavy beyond description. It tell as if ina mass. The very hills - M were sheeted with water, and in the valleys, runlets | of several feet, making the stream impassable on became creeks and creeks were swollen into rivers. | A freshet was of course anticipated ; but a such as ensued, could not have been anticipated.— It issaid that the passengers in the afternoon boats saw a water spout burst upon the heights between ey and Chester creeks ; but though any ordina- | ry fal to have produced the subsequent flood, there 1s ro satisfactory evidence of the existence of a water spout. About six o’clock it was found that Chester creek was rapidly rising. Every effort was instant- ly made to place such property as was moveable out ef the reach of dange-, but so instantaneous was the swell of water, that the next moment left no feeling but the instinct of self preservation. adequate of rain, however copious, seem: The stream rose, it is said by some, six feet in five minutes; others aver that it rose six feet in one | minute, were lost, and the vast volume ot waters spread over the plain, tearing up the largest trees, and sweep- ing factories and buildings, like bubbles, upon its surface. Fortunately this took place betore dark, or the scene would] have been even more terrible than it was. In Chester the torrent rose as it by magic, and swept angrily through the streets. The build- ings which were most frail were swept away; and from others femaies were berne through the angry | and rushing waters half dead with fright. Houses, dams, bridges, boats and an immense mass of lum ber, furniture, mill wheels, &c., shot by upon the current. At length, while the assembled citizens gazed, with white fi ro bridge, built at an enormous expense, was lifted from its foundations and flung down the stream. ips, upon the ruin, the railroa ‘The next to follow was the suspension bridge. This structure was one of whrch every enlightened American was proud, as it was the first chain- bridge built in the world. Europe has since claimed che invention; but here stood-alas! it stands no longer ! the proof, erected thtrty years ago, that to America belongs the credit of having invented and constructed the first suspension bridge. When the mass of matter, which shot upon the stormy and roaring torrent, struck the bridge, it swayed and groaned, and at length, after a moment’s resistance, ite vast iron fastenings gave way with a crash, and the chains, as they grated upon each other, sparkled and flashed like lightning. It swung heavily for a moment and fell into the flood. The water now swept through several of the low- erstreets. I saw this morning a house in the mid- dle of one street, anda shallop in another, left there by the receding stream. The nature and extentot the injury done could not then be i was witha dismay which approached despair that citizens saw the flood roll into their storehouses and sweep their hard earnings away. This morn- mated; but it ing. however, disclosed in part the extent of the ruin. lt was found that wharves, tan-yards, ma- chine shops, storehouses, Jumber and coal yards, &c. had been either carried otf by the flood or ruin- ed by the inundation. Messrs. Eyres, Kitts, Brobs- ton, Paxton, &c., are severe suffercre. But the consequences in Chester are trivi Chester and Ridley creeks. Every bridge, or near- ly every one on those two streams, has been car- ried away. Many of these were costly and substan- ual structures, and it will cost aa immense sum to replace them. Most of the mills and factories upon those streams have shared the same fate. The factories of Mr. Crozer, of Mr. Dickson, of Mr. Riddle, and others, have b Immense numbers of b goods, barrels of dyewoods and barrels of flour,have been carried down to the Delaware, or scattered upon the mead: it h > broke and deposited its spoil.

The pecuniary loss to indivi- duals is frighttully great—and that which has fallen upon the county is not less eppalling ‘The lowest estimate of loss 1s $250,000—but this is made up, to agreat extent, upon conjecture.

It not less than twenty, and probably as many more, persons have been drowned.

He however succeeded in getting hold of the branches of another tree that resisted the tid, and he was saved. Several bodies have been found upon the shore and in the meadows. This tatality 1s to be ascribed to the unparalleled sudden- ness of the rise of the water.

The first came up from the north east about the middle ot the af- ternoon, and was moderate. Three showers suc- ceeded, constantly increasing in violence, during the vening, and from about 8 o’clock to between land o’clock on Sunday morning, the rain literally fel! in torrents—seeming!y one incessant sheet of water from the clouds, accompanied with thunder and lightning. Much concern was excited throughout the vicinity for the consequences, and those living in low grounds, along streams, and exposed situa- tions, made such preparations as the time would al- low to meet the emergency. Hundreds of citizens were at work yesterday bailing water out of their basements and cellars,and striving to keep the water coursesclear. The damage is nevertheless very reat, and we have thrown together below such ‘acts as will serve to indicate the severity and ex- tent of the flood, for such it really was. So far as we can learn the storm extended as far west of us as Schooley’s Mountain,but was not very | severe beyond Morristown; North to Patterson, where a flour mill was carried away; East to Long Island, and South as far as Wilmington, in Dela- ware. Many families living on the west ide of the city, | in Washington, Plane, and other streets under the hull, have suffered more orless. Upwards of a hun- dred cellarsand basements must have been flooded. Several poor families and three or four retail stores have suffered severely from the damage to goods, ture, &c., especial ced out r cutest, south of Market street. In aome cases the first floors of dwelling houses were the light furniture floating. | Hundreds were engaged yesterday in bailing and drawing off the water, and several fire engines were generously brought to their aid. The water poured down Market street in a flood, and of course found its way into every open door. The damage to leather and other property in that street is very con- siderable. Hl The water swept away all the dams upon the mill | or their actions, » stream called First river, which crosses the city at the north end of Broad street, carrying in its course every thing in its way, The Franklin lron Works, was damaged from $1,000 to $1,500.

Oa the Second River, ancther mill stream at Belleville, every mill dam and bridge trom Bloom- ield to Belleville, wea more or less injured. At the Soho Copper Works ot the Messrs. Hendricks, the dam was swept away, tegether with proverty amounting to 7000 dollars. The White Lead Works, belonging to General Moore, the American Print Works of George Bird, and the Rolling Mills of Stephens Ge Thomas, were also greatly damaged. he bridge over the stream on the old road from Newark to Belleville 18 entirely destroyed, and the water broke the embankment and rushed from its | channel in one sheet down the road, completely sub- merging the bridge at the lower road to the either road ; and the only communication is by a private bridge used by the workmen or Mr. Bird’s Propertv. a : n Third River, Mix’s dam, Kingsland’s dam, | ene be dam at Curtis? paper mill were all much in- jured, At Paterson we hear of no great damage, except | the submerging of cellars. A grist mill ot Mr, Ate | yea, on the opposite side of the river,was destroyed, | and the stones carried 75 to 100 yards, | At Elizabethtown nearly all the bridges over the | small streams are carried away, including three be- longing to.the county. Many cellars have three or four feet of water. | At Springfield Campbell’s dam broke,and his mills | are damaged to a considerable amount. The | bridges on the turnpike are carried away, and the road is impassable. Lhe water poured down as if a wave of | f thatcen ad’ been were onward by an earthquake. We hear of no damage at Westfield or Plainfield. In about two hours it had risen 23teet. The neigh- boring creeks were swollen in the same proportion; and the roar of the impetuous torrents rang for mi through the country. The flood swept. irresistibly onward. The dams built for its restraint were as reeds before the ocean that rushed by; the channels _ Some six or seven county bridges have been car- ried away. ohare At Mendham, some six miles west of Mornstewn, it began to rain about 5 o’clock. We do not hear of any damage. | In Morristown the rain was very heavy, but we | understand did no great damage. About three miles south of the town,on a stream running through Green Village, two mills near each other, were | carried away, but without destroying much other | Poverty: | He Morris Canat.—The Morris Canal_ w | broken in nine places between this city and Little Falls, some five miles west of Paterson, four of the breeches being between those two places. Nod locks or inclined planes, we are glad to hear, were injur- jed. The basin at the weigh lock immediately west | of the city gave way, and the channel from thence | to the riverrun a flood, which carried away the | basin near the wharves, and thus the canal was soon qe pied, The rumor that the banks on the hill west | of the town gave way,is,we understand, not true. No water was thrown into the streets from the canal. | The damage to the canal is serious, (perhaps $2000,) | but we are authorized to say that measures have been promptly adopted to repair it, and the naviga- homiwill probably be resumed in ten days or a fort- night. The} Morris and Essex Railroad was broken_in four or five places where there are culvers. The largest and only serious break was at Millville, near Springfield, where the bridge over the stream, some thirty teet in width, washed away. This, however, will not probably interrupt the operations of the roa beyond to-day. The connection will be kept op. un- til the bridge is restored by separate trains from Newark and Morristown. The New Jersey Railroad has not been materia! KA injured. A considerable breach was made through the great avenue south of the city, and a portion of the track carried away, but the rails have been promptly restored. ts ‘i ‘The Delaware and Raritan Canal was seriously injured between New Brunswick and Princeton, two heavy breaches having been made near Bound- brook, which will probably suspend navigation for a fortnight. A letter from Valley Forge, Montgomery county, Pa , states :— . We had yesterday, at this place, a most destruc- tive freshet. The rain commenced falling mode- yately af an early hour in the morning, but about 3 P.M. it fell in torrents, and continued so to fall forsome hours. The Valley Oreek, which runs through this place, rose wi'h unexampled rapidity, and at about 7 o'clock, the western end of the sul stantial dam, connected with the extensive factory belonging to Charles H. Rogers, Exq , was carried away. The impetuosity of the current was tre- mendous, and reminded me saronaly of Trenton Falls or Canada Creek, near Utica, N. Y. An ex- tensive gun seoteey fae below the dam, was entire- ly carried away, and also another dam, just below. Che damage sustained here, has been quite exten- sive, and the reports are, that extensive breaches have been made in the canal and railroad running near this place. The particulars I have not been able to ascertain. The gun factory destroyed at Valley Forge, was one of three erected in the days of the Revolution. The two others were, one ct Harpers’ Ferry, Va and one at Springfield, Mass. The factory at Val- ley Forge, has not been occupied for some years ; but it is painiul to see the reminiscences of our country fading from our view. May we not hope that Mr. Rogers will be induced to rebuild the fac- tory, if only on this account? Tak Soctety Istanps.—A paper published at Honolulu gives some extracts from a proclamation issued by the Queen Pomare, betore the seizure of the islands by the British admiral. The document is ipteresting, presenting as it does a very intelligi- ble exposition of the ideas respecting the mainte- nance of personal rights and the public weal, enter- tained by the native government of these islands. We theretore transfer it to our celumns :— That a council of government shall be established at Papeete, the capital of Tahiti. .The council is invested conformably to the con- dition of the protectorate, with the administrative and executive power, and of the foreign political telations of the government of the Queen Pomare.
