TILE RAIN

OF last Saturday evening was one OF the
most extraordinary that has been witnessed
in this section for many years, raising many
of the streams to an highth wholly unprccc-
lented. The damage in this town was but
slight. but in the valley of Mad River,
through tho towns of Moretown, Duxbury,
Waitsfeld and Warren, the effects of the
rain we're more severely folt,--mills, bridges,
barns, and other buildings being swept away
by the food while the crops along the sides
Of the streams we're almost wholly destroyed,
and the land in many places was torn up and
rendered entirely worthless. OF the effects
of the rain west Of us the Free Press Of Tues
day says;
The fine rain of Saturday evening in this
town was food in some places near us
The town Of Huntington has suffered greatly.
The freshot there was unexampled for this
vicinity The accounts which reach US, rep
resent tho water as falling literally in sheets
OF masses, changing the streams almost in
stantly to raging torrents, filing the valleys,
sweeping away buildings, bridges, fences and
live stock, and covering fine meadows with
gravel and sand Along the Huntington riv-
err. from G. II. Adrews sawmill to the Win
ooski, a distance Of ten miles, but one OF
two bridges are left, either on the river or
the smaller streams which empty into it.
Four covered bridges, and several smaller
ones we're carried off At Huntington Cen
ire the dam gave way and the factory and
gristmill of Messrs. j. S. a. A. Rood. large
four story brick building, was undermined
and entirely destroyed, even the stones of its
foundation being swept down on the meadows
below. Messrs. Rood estimate their loss at
IS 900 Johnson's saw mill was also much
injured, aud we hear that several small mills
farther up the river we're carried away. Hun
tington river has changed its channel through
the meadows at several points.
A gentleman from 1Inesburgh informs us
that the fall Of rain and correspondingly rap
id rise of water in that place was almost un-
prccedcnted, and that on small stream run
ming down between the hills from Hunting
ton several hundred dollars worth of dam
age was done by the sweeping away Of bridges
and fences
In Bolton some damage was done to the Vt.
Central Railroad and a slide at Slip Hill, -
this side of Middlesex, has stopped all pas
SAGE of trains to-day. OF course, the Win
oosh was very high throughout its length,
and considerable damage has been done to the
crops upon the meadow lands The water
was up over the intorvale at this place yester-
dav. and we learn that timber from the ruined
bridges. a barn. a COW, and other marks OF
the destruction above. were seen going down
