THE RICHMOND ENQUIRER.

OF The bridge on The Manchester side taoou' one

saved. Z. c. Mayo Esq, The proprietor, had
commenced putting the bridge in substantial Of
der, and We sincerely regret lha! The food OF wa
ters has cul Short bis valuable labo:s for The pre-
sent. We arc sorry 10 learn that the bridge was
NOT insured.
A,3, P. NJ, yesterday, The river was higher
than il has been known daring Ibis century, and
still rising; and we fear that the injury 10 The
canal and farms above is very serious. We saw
ccal-boai, which had been carried over The
Falls, safely floating down the stream. Il must
have been forced through some breach in The
canal, aud launched upon a novel and pelilous
navigation. The lower story OF Haxa!i's fine
mills was under wafer, causing The destruction OF
several thousand bushels OF bran. VauYhalPs
Island was nearly covered with water, leaving
onlya narrow slip Of dry land around The house.
Browns Island, in rear Of the Armory, was al
most out of sight; and we were sorry 10 hear in The
middle of The day That family was Still there,
the current being so strong as 10 make il perilous
10 approach i, in an ordinary boat. We have no
doubt, however, that some plan was arranged 10
rescue The lonely islanders.
The steamer "Alice" was al Rockets undergo
ing repairs, bui she broke from her faseninss, and
foaled ruLder'ess, down the stream with Tour or
five individuals ON board The steamer "Cunis
Peek" was despatched in pursuit OF her al lOi
A. M, and we suspect tails right" The wafer
was some two feet deep on Cary, near The inter-
section OF i7h told Ma.keD street, ard The
cellars on Main ST., below The City Hotel, are
filled with water. Rockets, the landing and The
Dock were perfect waste Of waller. We fear
thai we shall hear Of very serious damage done
b. this extraordinary rising Of the waters, which
took every body BY surprise.
PISA, 6 o'clock last evening The water had
risen 10 The level Of The stone abItmenl al this end

old inhabitants say that this is The hishes! food
