The Royal GEORGE.

On Wednesday, the weather being
'avorahle, Mr.. Fisher went down in
he diving bell, with two men, at the
time. Of slack water, at Spiihead, TO
examine the wreck of the Royal
tieorse and az the depth Of about s
lathoms, they made fast a chain 90 i.

They then continued their survey. and
were moved about in different direc.

attendants above. In lowering thu

contained sufficient air to last the men
forty minutes without a further sup
ply by the pump, and MIR. Carol, the
Master Of the vessel, who directed
the operations above, immediately,
with the greatest c0olnesss caused the
bell to be raised to the surface, which
operation was performed in about
seven minutes. The bose being made
good, the bell was lowered second
time, when Lieutenant Of the Queen
Charlotte was admitted as one OF the
|party, and they brought up a small
piece. of the wreck. The part Of the
wreck that was slupg, being after

Tremendous Rain & Flood.

In the course of Monday night last
and Tuesday morning, we had the
most tremendous rain, accompanied
with the rising Of the waters, ever|
known to our Oldest inhabitants. 3" III
not only rained but il poured" Our
streets on Tuesday morning presented
the gloomy spectacle Of a continued
watery expanse. In the lower part
of The town, or that part contiguous
to the river, none Of the pavement or
side walks were observable, All were
buried in that element. which, but for
tile sure word OF Holy Writ, We
should have imagined was a second
time, about to dcluge the world. The
damage sustained in the city we are
lbappy to find, is very small but oil
the effects Of the rain in the country
a far less favorable spectacle presents.
