THE LATE FLOOD.

We copy on the outside an extended ac-
count of the recent high water in the Con-
necticut valley. 1t will be read with inter-
est by all, and especially those acquainted in
the localities mentioned. We received last
week, after our paper was printed, letter
from friend in Hadley, Mass, briefly des-
cribing the freshet at that place. To those
who have been at old Hadley, and know that
this vast meadow is in bend of the Con-
necticut river, similar to the Newbury Ok
Bow, the fearfulness of the situation of the
inhabitants on this dark night, with the riv-
er making clean sweep across the meadow
and through Hadley street, can be but faint
ly imagined. We copy a paragraph from
the letter -
"The water from your northern SHOWS be-
gan to show itself here last Friday morning,
and from that time until last evening about
six o'clock our usually quiet river has been
creeping up, so that We now have a food
equalled by only one since the settlement of
the country. What would you think of step
ping from the threshold of either one of our
doors into beat and sailing all over the
street, to Northampton or Hatfield. The
cellars and the wells of every house on the
street below here are filled. The lower
floors of some of the houses are covered, and
most of the barns are flowed. The scene
Saturday night was dismal indeed The
water constantly rising, cellars filling and
walls falling, and fearful anticipations that
houses too might fall. while the wisest could
give TO opinion where or when it would stop.
Meanwhile the river was pouring over its
bank at the North end of the street and run
ming the entire length of it, and here were
over five hundred people and no means of
escape except by three or four small skiffs
and temporary RATS. Very few slept that
night here think, and never were so MANY
anxious hearts and wakeful eyes watching
for the morn. Many cattle and horses stood
in the water until nearly drowned, and some
were drowned. Although our church was
not opened Yesterday. :here were many ear
nest prayers. which 4 kind Father has hear!
and answered. 1t is impossible now to esti-
mate the damage, but it must be great.

For good news this week we have an

For good news this week we have an &C.
count of the capture of New Orleans, the
queen city of the South, by the federal gun
boats. This news comes though rebel sour.
ces, but is probably true nevertheless. The
loss of this large city must he another dis.
heartening blow to the rebels. The people
were taken in panic, we are told, but we dc
not learn as there was any fghting-proba.
bly, there was none at the city, as the forts at
distance on the river were relied upon to
defend it; and when these were once passed
1t was an easy matter to take possession OF
the city. New Orleans is taken, but the two
great battles at Yorktown and Corinth are
yet to be fought. Gen Mcclellan is pushing
forward the siege Of Yorktown, and Gen Hal
leck is making ready for an attack on Beau
regard at Corinth. Gen Pope with his army
is now with Halleck, and the decisive blow
cannot long be averted in the Southwest. A
despatch from New Mexico announces that
the Texans have been driven from the terri
tory, and our little band Of brave troops, un.
der Col Candy, are yittors at every point
There has been much apprehension in regard
to the result Of the contest in this quarter, as
the rebels had superior force, and in one
or two contests had come off successful.
