the two counties, or rather, would it
should be understood as the ".Short

feel the same. Previous to the notice,
for the meeting being appointed among
other towns in Hancock county, two
gentlemen in Ellsworth, and they were
those who had appeared to eShibi, the
most interest in this subject, were written

as to time, place and object, asking their
aid IN getting out as many as they could
from their respective towns. and to stir
up those in other towns, &c. And we
supposed from the fact that the first peti.
tons and some pieces in the Ellsworth
Herald, being printed in that county and
that some in all of the shore towns in
that county or nearly so at least, had
been conyersed with, and had given a
universal approval of the plan, that both
counties, if county lines are to be named,
were acting in union. And Wien the
question was asked in the meeting at Co.

1t is estimated roughly that by the
inundation OF water from the river Elbe,
on the morning OF tbs I'd inst, when the

of 81 feet inch, damage has been caused
on the Hamburg territory amounting to
10, 0G0 600 Of marks banco, or $500, 600

force of the storm. The utmost misery
is, apparent among the poorer classes OF
people consequent on the terrible calam-

the givin way of the dykes in Hanover
have been fearful, as even houses and
whole families, and herds of cattle, stacks
of hay and corn, have been swept away

Every laboring man is moreso less IN.

feeling upon this subject. Blu, ~ha,
