DAMAGE BY THE RAMA large portion Of
TIE long arch over the run in the square
bounded by Ninth and Tenth streets west,
and and streets north, was thrown down
by the water alter the heavy rain of Thursday
night 1t is n serious loss to some one, but
whether to the contractor or owner Of the
property, we are unable to say. That square
has been greatly improved within a year or
two, and the covering Of this stream was only
preliminary to other Improvements. Our citi-
Iens can sympathize with any one who has
been laboring under great disadvantage to
improve property, If their arrangements when
nearly completed are suddenly destroyed.
CPsEr-Lsst evening, as Professor Ruggles
was passing along the narrow carriage way
lIOM " slIctI 70 INC dNcnu', near ObOIJ uIuR
store, in a light carriage, a cOachman, driving
rapidly, entargled the wheels of his coach
with those Of the Professors carrisge, and,
instead of stopping his horses to release the
wheels, he Pat whip to them, upsetting the
light carriage and placing the Professor life
In danger. Fortunately, the horse in the up
set carriage, by struggling, freed himself from
the harness, and the Professor escaped by
the side door without injury. The carriage
and harness were considerably damaged. The
name Of the coachman was not known to those
around.

CENTRE MARKET. Notwithstanding the un-
favorable appearance of the weather quite a
number of farmers and gardeners were in the
market this morning. The south side of Penn
sylvania avenue, between Ninth and Tenth
streets, was occupied a considerable distance
by country wagons. The hay market was
poorly supplied but the butchers and buck
sters were all at their posts. The market was
rather Observation-Disclosures pavements being
wet and muddy. Dealers appeared to be anx-
lOus 10 get 10 their homes, and consequently
prices were little lower than usual.
