N,aIo's GAKpEr--Last night Mrs. Fitzwil-
liam appeared az Widow Brady in the Irish Wi
dow. a part which has not found fitting represen-
tative since the days of Mrs. Jordan "Foreign Airs
and Native Graces' was played for second time,
and received if possible, with enthusiast than
on its first representation. The cast was good
throughout, and although Mrs. +. may be, and
doubtless is the feature of the piece, still
could fail to perceive there other features there
besides her own. She is doubtless very versatile
actress, and has become highly popular since her
soiourn in the United States One preof Of this is
found in the crowded audiences that have attended
here during her engagement. Still we think some
the credit due to the able acting Of Browne, Chip
pindale, and Miss Randolph, by whom she has been
30 well seconded.
As the Ravels are announced for tomorrow, and
Mrs. f. leaves on Saturday the British Queen,
of course only one night remains for repetition Of
these capital vaadevilles, especially As Mr. Brownies
engagement closes at the same time
GREAr FREsHEr AT WAsHINGroN--A cores
pondent at Washington has furnished the baltimore
Sun with detailed account OF destructive freshet
that occ urred there on Thursday last. From about
two O'clock afternoon till SIX 1t rained gently after
which il poured down in torrents, the wind blowing
with force sufficient to tear up trees by the roots.
By set the rain had increased so as to swell the
Tiber which is buta small brook, till it became a
river of a hundred yards in width. As the water
came roaring and rushing on, bringing on its turbid
bosom, fences planks and lumber, it was frghtfuto
look on On the left bank of the now 'mighty Ii
ber," two brick houses occupied by coored fam-
lies, were inundated, and the inmates driven to the
upper stories. Fears were entertained for the
foundations of the houses and the lives OF the IN
mates but the cessation Of the rain at eight o'clock
saved them. From this time the food continued to
subside, the water from the Tiber passing through
the Canal into the Potomac. Great damage has been
done and heavy losses sustained by many persons in
varous parts of the city, of whicha part only could
then be given The row of stores and private resi-
dences on the north side Of Pennsylvania Avenue,
from the depot the foot of the Capitol have all
sustained more or less injury.
A subsequent communication states, that the wall
on the south side Of the Presidents house was in
jured, part OF it being carried away by the flood
The fences the different farms along the turnpike
road TO Badensburg have seen thrown down, and
piled up in heaps; and the corn and other crops in
the District have sustained much injury; and many
poor families have lost the shad which they had bar
relied up and put away in their cellars for the win
ter's use. The loss is thought to be about forty
thousand dollars.

worthy Of our support. have been samed for the
Office OF Vice President, in various psrts Of the
country aud all, With scarcely an exception,
have been 80 nominated, subject 10 The decision
Of q National Convention. The candidate Sc
lseied by thar Csnveption. whoever he may be,
will be cordially sustained by the whole demos-
ncy. In the meantime il is but just, and in
accordance With the popular principles We
maintain, that the claims Of the respective can
didates should be discussed, and a preference
openly aud fairly avowed. 10 this view Of the
matter we frankly declare. that. in our humble
opinion. of all the candidates proposed for Vice
President by our friends, JOHN FORSYTH
OF Georgia presents the strongest claims. An
outline of his political life viii be found in
our columns to-day and no one can read the
summary view we have given Of his public ca
reer. without conviction that his services have
been long, arduous and faithful. and highly
beneficial, not to his party only, but to bis
country and mankind.
