some distance on each side swept every thin!
within reach-tences, trees, corn, wood, &c,
were swept away in large quantities. This il
the more severe on some Of our farmers, as The
| fences constructed were principally new, The
old ones having been swept away last spring
| The bridges were at one time in great danger
and had ii not been that the current was turn
ed in another direction by the evenncss of the
ground, they would inevitably have been de-
stroyed.
Considerable damage was done in our vii
lage, particularly in the western part-many
OF the gardens were literally swept of their Ell:
fects and lost; the cellars were filled to over.
flowing, and any quantity ofsoap, butter, pick
les, meat, milk, potatoes, &c. met with wateTy
graves Water street shared the worst in con.
sequence of its peculiar obstructive locality.
DoINGs IN CARROLL CoUNTY-The RepI-
diatOrs. The Westminster Carroltonian re.
cords the following extraordinary proceedings
which occurred in that county on Friday last:
On that day a sale was to take place by the
Collector Of Direct Tax, of wagon belonging
to Mr.. Thomas Smith, Of Union-Town Dis
trlct, which had been levied on and destrained
because Mr.. Smith refused TO pay his quota OF
Tax. When the wagon was offered, the first
bid was some SIS, the amount of his tax; then
commenced the bidding, which was continued
until evening, there being q determination on
the part ofthe Anti-Tax men, "a large number
OF whom were presently to defeat the sale by
Keeping up succession of bids, most of them
as low as a half cent The bids amounted
to above $50, when the sale was continued
until next day. Next day the sale was re-
sumed; the bidding was oretty rapid until it
had reached i'll the neighborhood of 500,
when the anti-tax men commenced half cent
bids, which continued during Saturday, and
was renewed on Monday, and continued during
that day and Tuesday and Wednesday. On the
latter evening, the collector having taken a
seat by desk in the court-hall, surrounded by
some half dozen or more nnti-tax men, who
kept on bidding until it had reached some
where in the neighboIhood Of Sl45, when the
property was struck off to Samuel Moffet. He
falling to comply with the terms, notice was
gwen that the property would be again Offer ed
on Thursday morning.
On Saturday, when the Collector was sur.
/ rounded by large number of persons, one Of
the Anti-Fax men threw a bundle of crackers
under the feet of the Collector. The explosion
