those Of the Committees Of Ways and

GREAT FREsHET IN THE JAMES RIVER

va learn from the Richmond papers that great
ffesnet occurred ia the James River, at Richmond.
on iiday last. The water was four riches higher
than u has been for upwards Of forty years. The
cellars on Msine sueet, for some distanes on each
side OF Market Bridge. we're filed with water; bot
little damage was sustained The Dock and
Wharves al Rockets were under wa,er. The
damage to Mayo. bridge was considerable.
The r Richmond Compiler states thar losses g.
mounting to million Of dollar, are already heard
Of, and adds:
We are afraid melancholy account ~iil have 10
be rendered OF the destruction TO the crops by the
freshet. In Powhstan, we understand that $1,000
worth of whest in stacks has been swept away by
the ooi 10 all the plantations bordering on James
River there must be more less injury sustained.
Tho River at this point higher on Saturday
than in the great summer freshet Of 1886. II is
one Of :he greatest reshe,s tina, has ever occurred
here q, this season.
The Richmond Wing OF Monday remark:
The destruction must have been immense. Near
" the entire wheat crop upon the James River bot.
toms from this place 10 LyHchburg is supposed to
be swept off, or ruined. IL is the same case upon
withdrawing some fifty miles through very
fertile region in Buckingham and Cunbe,la land -
We fear like result all tho tributaries Of the
James River on the South side, and those of Appo
mattox aud Roanoke. The wheat crop is not the
only one injured The growing crops Of and
tobacco are both overlown, and if not totally de-
stroyed, will he seriously injured.
LArER-rhe Richmond Wing has the following
postscript:
The Lynchburg Mail due Saturday arrived last
evening. IL brought neither letters.snor papers,
but we les,n from the driver, generally. that the
destruction from the upper end Of Buckingham To
Lynchburg and South to Dan River is az great as
our worst fears Portended All the crops on the
tributaries Of the Appomat,ox and the James are
swept-as also the bridges, mill dams &C. The
Canal near Lynchburg is a wreck. Never was so
great fall of water in short a time (some 10
hours) known.
IL is reported that mime rous very bad breaches
have been made in the canal above Colnmbia-in
some places, the locks well as the embank meni
being swept away. The line Of the canal In a grea,
many places was flooded from the river.

Tho documents connected with our pi e.
sent relations with MEXICO, which were
communicated TO Congress on Thursday,
will command great attention throughout
the country. Due credit was given in
the Senate, by gentlemen of both parties,
to the ability, patriotism, and sounduess
of Mr.. Webster's letter, and, certainly,
the like credit will be given to the Secre-
tary of State by his fellow-c.izens gener.
ally. As a diplomatist and statesman, Mr..
Webster will distinguish himself as he did
as lawyer and Senator. His official
services will be the proudest memorials OF
this administration. Mr.. Tyler should
be doubly grateful to Daniel Webster for
exercising his great talents at this crisis
in our affairs, in behalf OF the rights, in
,erests, and honor Of the United States.
Nobly has he, thus far, defended and
maintained them, and we believe, he will

A CALL UPoN MR. TYLER TO REsrGs!
III seems now impossible to doubt that
Jonn Tyler's imbeciIity and abuse Of pow
er have strongly excited the disspproval
of large majority Of the people of this
country. The expression Of opinion a.
gainst the course of the President has been
almost unanimous. Many Of Mr.. Tyler's
stronges, friends have condemned in no
measured terms his last act Of folly, in We
toing the little tariff bill. Curses. NOT
loud but deep, are vented upon the rash
hand that so suddenly arrested the pro-
gress OF return to more stable and pros.
porous times. the following expression
OF strong feeling on this subject, and a
recommendation of a still further condem-
nation OF the President, 10 way that
would touch him to the quick, is made
through the columns Of the Lancaster
Examiner and Herald, 6y one OF the del
egatcs TO great National Convention
which nominated Gen. Harrison and Mr..
Tyler.-Phiiad. Gat.
81 propose that the surviving members
Of that Convention should re. assemble.
practicable, and by solemn protest a.
gainst the base treachery Of the man who
has been placed at the head of the nation,
nIeavor TO prevail upon him to racate The
office which he is now exercising with
such 1elcterious influences upon all the
best interests Of the country. sincerely
believe that this is "a duty which the dele
gates owe to the great cause Of republic
can liberty and although, for one,
should find the performances of il attended
with some personal inconvenience-as
well as unspeakabe modification at the
unhappy necessity thus imposed upon us
yet as il is the only redress we can now
make to our unfortunate constituents, for
the lamentable mistake which we then un.
willingly committed, ] am prepared most
heartily TO join my colleagues in the eff.
fort to atone, as far as possible, for the
injuries thus inflicted upon our beloved
country. should suppose that when the
acting President finds the large and re-
spectacle body Of men, who were instru.
mental in placing him where he now is,
solemnly and Indignantly calling on him
10 surrender the trust which he has so
grievously betrayed, he will for very
shame comply with The request.
In case u general meeting Of the dele
gates should prove mpractcable, it is sug-
gesied that all the delegates to that Con-
vention speak their sentiments Of the con.
duct of John Tyler, through the press"
