RIsEINTIiE APPoMATTox-1he Peters
burg South-Side Democrat gives the follow
ing account Oft:
Last Sunday the lower portion of our CT
ty was entirely inundated by the freshet in
the Appomattox. The rain commenced
falling ON Thursday night, and poured in
torrents continuously until Saturday morn
ing. The river soon rose above its banks
and did not subside until i had spread en-
tirely over that portion ofthotown between
the Bollingbrook Hotel and Pocahontas
bridge. Every ware-room uponthe wharf
was flooded, as well as many stores and
dwelling houses. 1t was strange to see
men moving from house 30 house in boats.
Families We're etherdriven altogether from
their houses, or had to betake themselves to
the garnet. No communication could be
had between the opposite banks Of the riv-
except by boat Numbers of little boats
were plyingincessantly between the bridge
and the banks just at the back of the Boil
lngbrook Hotel, and they presented quite
a novel and mtcrestingspectacle. Crowds
during the whole of Sunday We're standing
upon the banks Witnessing the scene
Many of our merchants have sustained con-
siderable losses by thefood. Theembank-
ment Of the Sout-Side Railroad for some
distance, was entirely washed away. 1t
is generally conceded that so great freshet
was never seenin the Appomattox. Some
idea may be formed of the extent of the
lnundaton from the fact that the water
spread as far up as the Bolingbrook sta
bic. 1t feared that the farmers along the
river have suffered very great losses.

OF winch it remarks:-This type has been
submitted to the process recently invented,
by which 1t receives copper face. The
attempts which have been made to sub
stitute a harder metal for the ordinary type
metal, have hitherto been failures. But
the method by which this type has been
hardened has been so fair tested as to in

Il IGr36te SccRe.-A passenger who
was on board of the Autocrat at the time

the scene. The collision was at daybreak
weather clear, and the whole wide Mis-

| sengcrs, thirty In number, one engineer and
three CABIN passengers, We're lost. No
names given. There Were eight ladies, all
of whom were saved. The Autocrat sunk

Their is landlord of the Gayosa House,
Memphis snatched his child from the arms
of his wife, and ran to the forecastle, leav-
ing his wife, in the wildness Of his alarm,
in the ladies' cabin.
He stood by us a moment, and made
such appeals to save himself, and child, |
trust in God / never may have occasion
to hear again We got him somewhat
calm and quiet, and for which he stopped
to thank us; but the next momentthe cry chat
IRE are lost was heard and it was indeed
cruelty true with them, for he attempted
to leap to the Magnolia and fell with his
child into the pittiless elements to rise no
more. His wife was saved, and as she
stood on the shattered wreck, watching
with the widest eagerness for the husband
and child, she saw a man struggling in
the water whom she supposed to be him.
By maniac wells and distressed appeals,
she induced attention to the drowning man,
and by power almost superhuman he was
rescued, and when he reached the boat,
the lady fell around him with her arms,
and prayed God for the salvation of her
husband. Poor,hapless, widowed woman;
she swokc from sad and and cruel dream
chnging with frenzied tenacity to the neck
ofhm who was another's.
You may partially imagine surrounding
scenes when the gentleman thus saved re-
marked that he almost wished indeed it
had been her protector instead of himself"
