BLOCKADE AT THE Lone BRIDeE.-The uipfe-
cedented storm Of Saturday made considerable
breach In the solid causeway Of the bridge where
1t joins the timber work on this side but the dam
age was temporarily repaired, and the bridge has
been passable until this morning. The water has
risen very rapidly. Since yesterday, and at nine
O'Clock this morning, 1t had submerged the road
on the Virginia side to the depth Of several feet
rendering any passage at that point impassable
as to get to terra frmn Ii would be necessary to
swim any horses attempting 10 make the passage.
As we GO to press the water Is over the solid
part Of the bridge-the causeway-and the current
Is very strong and pressing with terrible force
against the structure. Great quantities of drift
wood, and large nntnbet Of pumpkins, have
come down with the food and are banked against
the bridge, and number Of people are engaged
In securing the material for pies, as well as lay
Ing In fuel for the winter:
A soldier supposed to have been drowned near
Leesburg, with light blue wooden uniform, Is
lying on huge pile of drift wood, within few
feet of the bridge The body 10 much discolored
and swollen, and has been examined, but there Is
no trace Of a woand.
A great number of army wagons and large

for the witnesses. but no witness Of the transac-
ton appeared. Thomas, who said he would
bring other evidence than his own, went to the
guardhouse this morning before the hour set for
trial, went away, and did not return. From the
statements of tie Italians, all Of whom are fruit
peddlers, 1t appeared that about O'Clock two Of
them were attacked and beaten at the corner of
Seventh and streets, and they ran into the
house to escape Roundsman Curtis, with
squad OF patrolmen, being informed of the affair,
and that the parties had taken refuge IN the Ital-
ian's house, went to the door and asked admit
lance as an officer. The inmates supposng II the
same crowd that had beaten their friends, refused
to let them in. One Of the Italians seized an old
broken gun and tried to frighten them away.
The officers gained admittance, and arrested all
In the house. One Of the inmates was badly hurt
In the face, and another slightly; which they said
was done before the police came by the crowd
attacking the house throwing bricks through the
windows. Justice Clark having no evidence
upon which to hold the parties for court, dis
missed the case.
