tremendous Rain and Eeshet-Fspe Lires Lost
This season has been as distinguished for its heavy
rains as for its excessive heat. Only week or two
since, we recorded the fall OF tremendous rain ir this
and the surrounding country, causing great damage
The growing crops, low grounds and property general
Iy, and we are now called upon to record a more de-
tuctve one as 1t embraces the loss OF several lives,
addition TO property to indefinite amount The
rain commenced early in the afternoon OF Sunday and
continued, but with slight nlermssion, until about IL
O'Clock al night the greater part Of the time falling iC
perfect torrents In few minutes every branch creek
aud gney had swollen into perfect torrents, the tide
bearing away before its resesS wave every thing that
opposed lis course. The destruction to property. to
mills tobacco, corn fences, stock, land, &c. &c has
been very severe but the destruction of human life is
the most painful record we have to make.
Two negroes belonging TO townsman, DR.. R S.
Payue, while returning home in buggy from a short
Visit INTO the country, were drowned in Blackwater
Creek in attempting to cross the bridge at Hons'
Mill. Ii appears that the small spring branch which
enters the stream al that point and which runs parallel
with the road had swollen to such height, that had
forced its way the road, and thus succeeded in
speedily washing much oft away. This upper
ceived by the negro man, and the moment the horse
entered, the buggy and negroes swept into the cur
rent and destroyed.
A negro man, belonging to Samuel Miller of this
place, was also drowned ia the creek at higher
goln, IN attempting TO cross with horse and buggy
The horse and buggy, we understand, were saved.
But sill more painful casualty occurred, few miles
above tins place, the Mint Spripg, where nearly
an entire lush family by the name OF Kennedy, were
buried beneath tremendous laud slide. Their shanty
was built immediately at the base OF the almost perpen
dicuIar mountain-t1e mother, and child had
tired to bed, and Mr.. Kennedy few steps from the
house, when, from the effect OF the rain large OF
rock and earth gave way, rushing with resstess velo-

family from the peltlngs OF the waery elements Mrs
Kennedy and her son were Instantly killed, Mr. Ken
nedy severely injured while strange to saw the little

morning taken out from the ruins unhur This was .
very Respectable and deserving family, and were

THE FALL, TRADE.

We met, day or two since, several intelligent
merchants from one of the upper counties, and
they told US they were going to the Northern ci-
ties to lay in their fall stock of goods. "Why,''
we asked, "do you pass by Richmond; don't our
wholesale merchants offer you as good terms as
the New York and Philadeph dealers?" Gust
as good they each said, emphatically, "this 60
ing to New York is all humbug; we get no better
goods by it, and we get them no cheaper; but it is
sort of fashion in our part of the country to get
our goods from New York, and if one does it, all
must do it," Now this, we must say, is most
anti Vrginian, unreasonable and unwse principle
of action. The fashion referred to by our friends,
the country merchants, not only does not deserve
encouragement, but should be sternly dscounte-
nanced by the sensible portion of the community.
OF what avail we should like to know, will be all
our Southern resolutions, that we will not submit
to Northern aggression, and that if the Abolition
lists are permitted to continue their practice of
stealing and harbourng our slaves, we will resort
TO non-intercourse and reprisals--of what avail
will they all be, if we quietly carry our purses 10
Northern cities, to be emptied into Northern cof-
fers, and to build up Northern, at the cost of
Southern, prosperity? We are informed, and our
advertising columns show, that our importing mer-
chants have as fine supply of goods of every
description as was ever presented in this city.

From the Republic.
THE RAP pom GA CT

One OF the resolutions reported by the majority Of the
select commttee appointed by the House OF Represen-
tatiyes Investigate certain transactions connected
win the Department OF The Interior, is follows:
"L'esotred, That the payment by The Secretary of
the Interior OF thirytwo thousand and three hundred
and eighty dollars and fifty cents 10 the admins
traitor 0, Commodore James Barron, as commuta-
toH pay for the naval services OF SAID Barron during the
revolutionary war as in violation of law"
WIN The slbioined opinion OF the Attorney General
at Virginia IN this case, we were furnished, several
months ago, with a request that We would publish 1t;
but We declined doing so, because we did not deem 1t
proper TO attempt oresta the report OF the COM
mittee The request having been recently renewed
and the report OF the committee having been presented
10 the House Of Representatives we now with pleasure
give place TO the opinion Thus will appear that the
legality ct the claim Is not only sanctioned by the late
Secretary OF The Interior and the late Attorney General
OF the United States but by the ncurent legal opinion
OF Tie highest law officer of Virginia.
We learn also that Messrs JOHN M PATTON, ROB-
ERT G. STAEARD, ROBERT U. ScoTT, VIM ii. MAoFAR-
LAND, and SAMUEL TAYLOR, the most eminent nrlsts OF
that State, have given opinions to the same effect

THE TEXAS RIII.

Whilst yet without the yeas and nays Oh the
final passage of the Texas Boundary and New
Mexico Government bill, by the House of Re-
personalities, we prepared the annexed analy-
sis of the vote by which the combined bill was
defeated on Thursday. We deem it worth the
trouble of preparation, (Which is no small one,)
because it will serve to shew more clearly by
what members the bill was rejected on Thurs
day. and then the reader can readily ascertain
which of them changed their votes so as to pass
the bill on Friday.
We have seldom known a higher qualification
than we experience in finding that every Southern
Wing representative Saue one, voted, on Thurs
day, for the third reading of the bill. That one
was Mr.. Clingman, of North Carolina, and we are
not sure that he is rightly to be classed as a
Wing, although he represents one Of the strong
est Wing districts in the South; since his eager
ness to enter the Senate by the aid of the Demo-
cratic party in the North Carolina Legislature,
and his avowal of Free Trade sentiments during
the present session, have seriously compromised
his position. 1t may, therefore, be said, in gene
raj terms, that the Wing party in the House of
Representatives have unanimously voted for the
amicable settlement of the Texas boundary ques-
ton, according to the basis of Mr.. Pearce's bill,
and for the establishment of Territorial Govern
ment in New Mexico thus getting rid of two of
the wounds with which, to use Mr.. Clay's meta
phor, the country has been suffering.
1t gives US no pleasure to see that considera-
Bile majority of the Southern Democrats voted
against the bill. We have never desired to con-
meet the slavery question with party considera-
tons, but on the contrary, have always deprecated
TIE efforts to that end of the Democratic mana
gers and presses. We can, tn erefore, sincerely
tender our cordial thanks to Messrs. Bayly, BeaIe,
Edmundson, Mcdowell, McMullen and Parker,
no less than to Messrs. Morton and Raymond, the
two Wing members from Virginia. for their af
frmative votes, on this important measure We
believe they have done what nne-tenths of the
constituents Of each of them will approve. Mr..
Seldom, the representative from our own district,
unquestionably went counter to the wishes of
very large majority Of its voters; and we have no
doubt that Messrs. Powell and Meade have equal
y misrepresented their respective districts.
The reader will not fail to observe that the
Southern vote against the bill consists almost en-
tirely of the names Of gentlemen of the South
Carolina School, whilst nearly all the regular
Democrats of ''the old line" voted in the affirma-
tive.
Vote of the House of Representatives., on Thursday,
Sept. 5th on the question ,Ohether the Teras Boun
dairy Bill, amended BY the addition of the New Me1
ico Territory Bill, should be ordered to its third
reading.

THE AMERICAN PRESS.

We insert, as pleasant and instructive reading,
part OF an article from the New York Tribune,
giving an account of the present condition of the
American newspaper press and of that journals
establishment in particular. The Tribune is
published on the cheap principle, and its success
has been truly wonderful We have put the
Times en- similar basis, so far as the compare
lively limited market of Richmond would per-
nit, and thus far we are we'll satisfied with the
experiment. Our daily and semi-weeky lists are
both increasing steadily, and we mean that they
shall go on until our circulation is larger than
that of any other journal in Virginia.

PURLoINING LETTERs.-We learn from the Lynch
burg Republican that white man named Grubbs was
arrested in that town Tuesday morning last, charged
with puroinng letters from the mail. 1t appears that
he has been employed steersman upon OF the
gular mail packet boats of Messrs. Boyd Edmond &
Davenport, plying between this city and Lynchburg.-
Way letters containing remittances had been frequent
iy missed since Grubbs had been employed the boat
and suspicion naturally rested upon him. The Captain
OF the boat, determining to test the NATTER caused
letter containing between $50 and $50 (mosy in coun-
teriet notes. be thrown into the boat way letter.
The bait proved successul-the rogue pocketed the let
ter-was arrested, examined and sent for further
trial before the Hastings Court OF Lynchburg. Grubbs
