The heavy rains and sudden thaw, on
Friday and Saturday last, caused flood in
the Susquehanna, which was within IS
inches as high as the great flood Of 1885,
The lower portions OF our town were par
tally inundated. The snperstruc,ure Of
the Gut bridge was carried several hundred
yards down the stream, and the bridge over
the Shamokin creek, mile below town,
was entirely swept away by the current.
The water rose about six inches over the
embankment above town, and inundated a
portion Of The low ground. Two or three
thousand dollars well expended, in raising
the embankmcnt foot or two higher, and
making the embankment over the Grant
farm, would have secured every portion OF
the town from the flood. We heard Of but
little damage, except the inconvenience OF
the filling Of few cellars on Front street,
and some in the neighborhood OF the gut.
The rail road and the rail road bridge, suf-
ftred no injury whatever.

THE MAILS.

No mails were received at this place and
Northumberland from Philadelphia, Har-
risburg, &c., from Sunday until Thursday
last, in consequence Of the freshet, which
rendered it, perhaps, impossible on one
route, and announcement on the other. The
road along the river TO Harrisburg has been,
We are Informed, somewhat damaged, but
between this place and Pottsville, we have
heard of no obstacle, excepting the loss OF
the Gut bridge over the turnpike, at 'h's
place, which renders il necessary to go
few hundred yards out of the way, 10 get
over the rail road bridge. During Monday
the communication between this place and
Northumberland, though not entirely cut
OF, was not open for vehicles, but on Tues
day carriages passed between the two pIa-
ces. But still it was not convenient 10 car
ry the mail, and consequently the Balti-
more and Harrisburg mails, due here on
Monday morning, were left at Northum-
berand until Wednesday and the Philadel-
phia mail, by way Of Pottsville, did not ar
rive until Thursday.
AT the next letting of the mail contracts,
our citizens will iasst. that the clause
which is supposed to exist in the present
contract, viz: "to carry the mail when
convenient," shall be stricken out, and
that the mail contractor be required to car
ry the mails whenever the roads are passa-
Bile Tor common carts, ox-teams, pedlars aud
organ grinders, at speed which shall not
be less than a mile and half in an hour
and an half. But joking aside, the day oI
deliverance is near at hand. By May next
We shall have rail road communication or
the greater part Of the route between thi,
and Pottsville, which enables us TO beai
our present ills.

annual exports of ,hs United States and

y The late freshet has considerably in
jured the Susquehanna division of the canal
at the mud dam, near Selinsgrove, and also
at the Lock, near the Shamokin Dam. At
WilIiamsport, the Lycoming Gazette says,
the water rose 81 feet above low water
mark, and vast quantities of lumber was
swep: away. A portion Of the Jersey
Shore bridge and Pine creek acqueduct,
were lodged against the bridge at Williams
port, and somewhat injured the last or
southern span. The telegraph wires went
down the river with the bridge.

REcApTURING SLAvER.-A letter from
Havana, in the New York Post states ha,
one of The slavers recently captured by Il
British war vessel on the coast OF Cuba. was
(orcib!y re,aken from the possession Of the
prize crew by q party Spanish soldier. The
soldiers boarded the vessel before day light,
and effected their purpose before resistance
could be made. The English captain (Ham-
ilton) prepared for immediate recap,ure, and
manned his boats for that purpose, but the
English consul in,erfered, and advised wait
ing instructions from home. Capt. Hamilton,
it is said, consulted with Capt Hollus, of the
U. S. sloop Of war Cyane, who advised the
retaking at all hazards Blu, he decided to
avail, instructions fIom home. The papers
make no mention Of the event.

SUBSCRIPTION OF Tyvo MILLIONS TO THE

SUBSCRIPTION OF Two MILLIONS TO THE
sUNBURY AND ERIE RAIL ROAD.
Philadelphia has at las! taken bold and
decided stand in relation TO this improve
ment. One that will not only rebound 10
her credit, but place her in position in
regard TO the great trade of the Lakes, that
will enable her TO defy the competition Of
all her rivals. The city councils have re-
solved to subscribe Two millions OF dollars
10 the stock Of the Sunbury and Erie Rail
road, upon condition, it is true, that an
equal amount shall be obtained from other
sources. This additional subscription, it is
said, will be obtained without any Difficult
| ty. This, with the two millions already
subscribed, will give the Company a capi-
/ tai Of six millions to start with. The esti-
mated cost OF the road, is nine millions,
with single track. The New York and
Erie Road, which was bull, to secure the
same trade, cost nearly thirty millions Of
dollars, and yet pays more than six per
cent on that amount. There can be no
doubt. but The Sunbury and Erie road will
be one Of the mos: profitable Investments in
the country.

over the river, between this place and
Northumberland, were sundered by the
freshet on Sunday night last. The wires
originally ran through the bridges, but af-
ter the fall of the bridge last spring, they
were stretched across the stream, from the
top Of tree on each side. The river ris-
ing very high, the wire, about the centre,
dipped several feet into the stream, and was
carried away by the floating ice. As the
bridge has been rebuilt, they will again be
firmly secured through the structure.

WASHINGTON, Jan %, 1858.
My dear Sir Your note Of yesterday
came 10 hand this morning, and hasten 10
do Justice 10 political opponent who is now
in his grave. You say that it was stated in
yoar presence, that President Polk was
heariless and cold, and that one of his cold
est acts was, that he vacated the White
House several days before The President
elect came TO Washington, for fear of oper-
ing his heart, SO as to ask him 10 his house
and table. Ii is due 10 MIR, Polk TO say that
| know this 10 be untrue. Gen. Taylor and
myself were both invited 10 dine with him,
and did dine with him before he left the
White House, and have no doubt all the
civilllies ordinarily extended TO the incoming
administration were extended by President
Folk to Gen. Taylor, and according TO my
recollection, he did not leave the White
House ll'l the 4h or rather the 5lh OF March
winch was Monday. The confusion incident
20 Inc close Of a session Of Congress, and the
breaking up of housekeeping by the Pres
vents family, must necessarily prevent any
President from doing more than Mr.. Poll
ald IN the case OF Gen. Taylor, and if I an
nightly informed, many of his predecessor
did not do as much.
