The rush and roar Of the angry and devas.
tatind9i waters were appalling. The
wh.rtes were al! bid from view, and above
soms ofthem, the water was full len feet
high. Warehouses, mills, coal and wood
yards, counting houses, stables and sheds
innumerable were inundated. Many OF
the buildings which stood near the piers
looked as ii:they had changel their origi-
nal positions for new ones away out in the
middle se the stream. Immense quantities
of wood, coal and lime. &C, had been

In Georgia, South Carolina and Alabama the most enthusiastic meetings have been held decIara- tory Of Southern rights, and determination to maintain an equality In the confedency. The great Mass Meeting recently held at Macon. Georgia ad- jOurned on the 22d ut. It was. says dispatch to the Charleston Mercury one of the largest and most enthusiastic meetings held ia the State. It was addressed by Mir. Rhett, of South Carolina; Messrs. Yancey and Cochran. of Alabama; and Messrs COlquitt, Stiles, Jones. GibbOn, Ramsay aud PIatt. of Georgia The resolutions adopted were of the strongest and most decided character. The follow ing will serve as an indication of their spirit:
 Resolsed, That should the events occur, 1t would become the duty of the Governor, under the direc- tons of the last Legislature to call convention If the people of Georgia, 10 consider of the necessary of safety to the State. It Is the opinion of this meeting that our Senators and Representa- lives in Congress should immediately retura to their State, and unite with their constituents in action such measures.
 A similar meeting was held at Montgomery, Ala, on the I7th ut., composed of both whigs and demo- crsts at which the following resolutions were unanimously adopted
 Resolced, That the admission of California into the Union, upon her present application, will be but a consummation of one of the most fiupendous frauds ever attempted upon the rights of any Peo- pie, and enactment by Congress of the Wlmot Pro viso in disguised, though most effective, form.
 Rsso!oed, That, in the event of the admission Of California, without full recognition of the rights of the South, the basis of the Nashville resolu- tons we recommend to the people of this State and 10 the people of our savehoIding States to meet in convention, with view to the adoption Of su oh measures may be best suited to the emergency of tlle occasion

 "Give 10 them but the bene fl, of their constitn- tonal guarantees and all the factions of the day. all the distractions that b. co1jured up by dssal- ieeticn, by broken down politicians, by disappoint ed spirits by men who have heretofore adsoc ated ratification, by loaiers who live upon excitement, and by reckless demagogues; in spIte of them ali, say the the South will hug the Union to her heart as the last blessing of Heaven"

You can form no idea of inc storm of balls and shells which crossed each other in their drsad reer.
