DARING RoRBERY.-The bar of John Rose, inn
keeper, in the township of Livingston, in Essex
county, y. j., was entered the I'D inst, and
goods and cash taken therefrom to the amount Of
nearly $500; The robbery Mr. X. supposes to have
been committed by John Marshall, who has infested
the country for 10 or 20 years, Itmay put the com
munity on their guard by mentioning the manner in
which he effected the robbery. He came in the
afternoon and put up for the night, and had in his
company two women, the one he called his mother
the other his niece. They all slept in the same
room, and he is supposed to have got up after the
house became still and secured the goods, and re-
NAMED up the residue of the night. He paid his
bill in the morning, and left without suspicion He
travelled IN spring wagon with leather top and a
pair OF bay or brown horses; the wagon was well
filled with trunks. He has formerly passed by fict
tious names, and travels in all manner of styles
Marshall is a stout muscular man, with dark com.
plexion and dark eyes; above the ordinary size,
and little stoop.shouldered, has a down look, and
generally wears his hat over his eyes more than is
customary.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2,-3 p. M. r
The TariM-Long Observation-Disclosures
The Tariff bill has not been finally acted upon in
the Senate, but the vote is expected TO be taken
shortly. IL may be defeated on the first vote, but
enough, either wings or democrats, are ready TO
give way to secure its passage
The business of the House has been of very little
public consequence to-day-private bills, principally
The anxiety respecting the action of the Senate on
the tariff bill, has been intense all the morning, and
the Senators have gone on with the discussion as
deliberately as if the session had Just commenced.
Long winded speeches are bad enough at any time,
but an exhausted subject, at the end of nine
months session, they are insuferable
Among the nominations now before the Senate,
are the commissioners under the treaty with the
Choctaw Indians. They are Mr.. Claiborne, editor
of the Natchez Free Trader; MIR. Starke, of Mis-
sissppi, the gentleman who testified in the difficulty
between Messrs. Wise and Stanly; and Mr..
Graham, formerly assistant editor of the Cincinnati
Republican, and a warm friend OF the President.
The editorial chair OF the Republican seems TO
have been stepping stone to executive favor.
General Harrison always regarded this paper, as the
chief instrument securing his election. II for
mery had daily circulation of nearly eight hum
dred, and was conducted with great soemnity.
General Harrison promised TODD, the principal edi-
tor, full mission, and Graham his assistant, mis-
sion of the second grade. President Tyler carried
out the wishes Of General Harrison, very properly,
respecting Todd, although he was not qualified for
the office; and now he has provided for Graham,
not at all improbable. In any event, the President
has done all that the friends of General Harrison
expected.
The announcement of the rejection of John How
ard Payne, was a mistake. "The wish was father
to the thought" There was no serious opposition
to the nomination, and he was confirmed without a
division.
Captain Clack who was sentenced to be dismissed
from the Navy by Court Martial, and the sentence
approved by the President, has been nominated to
the Senate for reinstatement. The offence with
which he was charged was not of military charac-
ter, and there is believed to have been msappre-
hension on the part of the Court

FURTHER ABOUT THE GAIk.-We learn from the
lntelllgencer that the city of Washington came in
this city on "Wednesday night last. The storm COM
menced there about halt past five O'clock and about
seven o'clock Pennsylvania Avenue, from First
street to Four-anda- street, it is stated,
continued sheet OF water, resembling broad river.
In front of the railroad depot, from the overlooking
OF Tiber Creek, there was water sufficient to float
boats and canoes OF large dimensions The water
rushed into all the cellars and into the rooms
on the first floors OF many houses situated on the
north side of Pennsylvania avenue, between First
and Second streets, causing great damage to the
goods, provisions, liquors. furniture, &c. which
happened to be deposited there, and which, such
was the rapidity of the flood, there was time to
remove. In one dwelling, which is rather lower
than the rest, the depot, the room the first
floor had tour feet depth of water in it..
The wooden bridge erected at the beach across
the Avenue, near the depot, gave way, both in The
centre and on the north side. The stone bridge
across the Tiber, erected by the railroad company
withstood the torrent of waters which passed over
and under il without injury.
In other parts of the city, the food though not so
destructive as near the railroad depot, did much
damage to the property OF the corporation and pri-
vate individuals.
The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal, between
Georgetown and the Little Falls, was considerably
injured by the flood
The loss of property is set down in the Intelligent
Ger at from between $4,000 to 5000 OF this
sum the corporation will probably suffer to the
amount Of $4,000 or $4,000. The Oldest inhabitants
say that they have never witnessed so heavy and
continuous ram since their residence in the me-
ropolis
We take great pleasure in stating that the storm,
contrary to all expectation, did no damage in Nor
folk. The Herald of Thursday has the following
article in relation to it:-
We were not disappointed in our auguries of
the weather yesterday. About four o'clock in the
morning the wind freshened up from N. E. to a
brisk gale, and the rain commenced falling profuse-
y. AT 8 O'Clock the wind hauled little TO the
Southwark OF East, and continued to blow in gusts
with great violence during the day, accompanied
with rain, but without the rise of tide caused by
storms from more northerly point of the conn ass
We have, as yet, heard of no injury OF any magni;
tude. Some trees and fences have been Frustrated
about town. The effects OF the storm at sea and on
the coast have doubt been disastrous to a very
great degree
