important rules of evidence have been argyll
ed with great acumen on both sides, and, but
for its insufferable length, this trial bids fair
to become one of the most interesting on re-
cord. There is no probability of its termina-
ting before the middle of next week. Mr..
Msson's closing argument upon the evidence
is waited for by the friends of Avery with
much interest and many persons are COM
ing from distance to hear it who have not
attended the trial. He is a fine looking man,
about sixty years Of age, of the remarkable
height of feet Z inches, evidently possessing
strong logical mind but his style of argu-
ing is rather too metaphysical to make a pop
ular impression. The Attorney General.
however, has shown himself fully his equal
in every thing but altitude, and his summary
for the prosecution will, am sure, be mag

THE FLOOD-LOSS OF LIVES
AND PROPERTY.

The most painful accounts begin to be
received, of the destructive effects of the
Freshet. The River continued rising
till about 10 o'clock this forenoon, when
it was ii foot higher than in the Spring.
The loss OF property is immense; nearly
all the Stores and Buildings east of Mar
ket street, the whole length Of the city
are inundated.
Our fellow citizens at Troy are heavy
sufferers. We are informed that five
men were drowned by the breaking uE
Of a Raft of which they had charge. A
man and boy, near Troy, were drawn
into the current and lost, while attempt
ing to rescue COW.
The Bridge across the Mohawk al
| Fort Plain has been swept away.
! We fear that the injury to the Cana
is SO great that as to interrupt the navi
cation for several weeks.
We regret to see that the labors ant
hopes of the Gardeners upon the Island
below and opposite the city. are all blast
ed. This loss will fall heavy upon an i'll
lustrious and valuable class of citizens
Ii is impossible to estimate the loss o
our citizens, which is much greater from
the occurrence of such an cAtraordinar
flood AT an unusual season.
Upwards of 200 cords OF wood wa

VERY LATE FROM SMYRNA.

The fast sailing brig James Ramsy,
