GREAT FLOOD IN THE TWEED AT BERWICK.—
On Friday last there was such a " fresh" in the river at
Berwick as is seldom seen, in consequence of the rains of the

haughs and low-lying districts in the river's course were
flooded, and everything movable was carried along with the
current, including sheep, pigs, cattle, immense quantities of
hay, and a gig was also reported to have been seen in the
