Haven Herald Of Tuesday afternoon says
A storm of rain set in last night about II O'Clock,
which has continued with moderate fall aud high
wind since. Our streets and side walks are
flooded with wafer, while the grand reservoir, the
lake in the centre OF the city formerly the public
green) has overowed is banks and is pouring forth
streams refreshing to the projectors and the
tors Of our public improvements. From Temple
street to Olive, through Chapel street. there is a

beautiful evidence OF our city system of civil engi-
neering-the fair weather system that obliges tho
citizen to build cutters in the public streets, and al
the same time compes him 10 shovel OF the snow
from the pavement to fill them up. Consequence
IS, the cutters are useless, and the pavemenls

In truth, from present appearances, and the great
body oil snow IN the interior, have reason to APP

disastrous results can hardly be prevented.

scarcely any intcrmission-the wind from the south

From the .MauD,ee Times.
Whereas JOHN TYLER, previous to his election to the
Office Of Vice President of the these United States,
had at all times, and on all occasions proved him
self an Incorporating opponent to United States
Bank that the wing party knew that fact when it
nominated him; and not only knew the fact
but he was nominated for the very of his
well known views on that subject; and that the
wing party as party, strenuously denied that the
incorporation of United Stats Bank ques-
ton before the people at the election of 1910.
Therefore

Bills ~ which presented to him for his official
signature after he became Chief Magistrate Of these

" Bank Bills, 4" carried out the wishes of the people
a proven by subsequent elections.

lar with the people, Congress ought to adopt it and
give il fair trial.

to the late treaty with Great Britain by President
and we believe that large majority of the American
OF II; and If any of Queen Victoria's subjects should
enter any Of vessels for the purpose of visit,
the visit should be returned With ball from seventy
four.
Resolved, That the dastsrdly Use Of the men,
bers of the Wing party, by opposing all of the prom
nent Of the President by heapng all of the
vile epithets be found in the bulary of billings
gate upon his devoted head, has recoed upon them
selves, proved their ruin, and the people have
set the seal Of condemnation upon their acIs.
Resolved, That 10 JoHS TYLER behold pure
Jehersonian democrat, an able statesman true pa
triot and one of COPS noblest works-dn honest
Resolved That by his hrmness, his consistency, his
true love Of country and by studying the best inter
ests of the people, JOHN TYLER deserves the thanks
Of every true American and he should be brought
fairly before the National Democratic Convention,
a candidate for the Presidency; and if nominated,
we pledge ourselves to give him our hearty support
