GREAT FREsHET IN NoRH CARoLINA.-We
learn from the Hillsborough, N. c. Recorder,
that a tremendous rain fell in the neighborhood
of that place on Wednesday, the 18th April,
by which immense damage was done. All the
bridges on New Hope and Morgan's creek, most
of the mill dams, and some of the mills, have
been swept away. The soil and the fences have
also been greatly injured by the weight of the
food So great freshet has not been known
for forty years.
The rain was equally abundant IN Wake and
the adjoining counties, carrying away mills and
bridges in all directions.

YOU 50 much alarm; which has so unsettled
your nerves, is but emblamaical of public
opinion; and the torture which produced
such agony of expression is but the working
of his own disappointed ambition.

constituents that shall be candidate for the office
of Senator at the next election.
Although this determination was avowed at an early
period after had received that important trust from the
suages of the people, yet the many kind and earnest
solicitations which have been addressed to me by those
whom have proud 10 serve, seem TO indicate be-
lief that my purpose might yield to the ishes Of my

grateful Acknowledgements for the expressions of
bated confidence which have been so generously be-
slowed on my public service My single aim has been
to crafty the wishes, represent the opinions, and ad
vance the interests of Baltimore, and do fear the
;mputation by the candid Of any party that in my
of public duty have been wanting in zeal fidelity
With every affection and interest interviewer with the
condition and destiny of my native city, have not felt
an impulse which did prompt to the assertion of
her rights and the promotion of her welfare am too
humble to claim the achievement of these important OBJ

This admirable compilation is winning

One of the mos; cstimable and intelligent Of
our artizans, who cannot, in any degree, be
regarded as partizan, after careful perusal
of its pages, gave it as &c his calm and deliber-
ate opinion that, next to the national con-
vention, held in this city on the 4;h inst, he
did not know anything so well calculated TO
insure the election of General Harrison" It
is indeed, formidable weapon in The hands
