en- back In the direction of Raleigh. Some skir-
mishlng occurred on the streets of Fayetteville,
and General Moward says houses occupied by wo-
men and children were fired upon by the rebel ar
tillery.
Adviees from the army of the Potomac repre-
sent that the mysterious movements on the part of
the enemy still continue. Throughout Thursday
and Friday the rebels were engaged in massing
troops at various points along the centre of Gen.
Grant s line, andthen suddenly withdrawing them,

soldiers. Rumors were afoat that the evacuation

The Flood in the susquehanna.

The water was still rising at o'clock last even
ing, and immense quantities of logs, trees, stumps.
ETC., were floating down stream The water reach
ed the railroad bridge from the Front street EN-
bankment to the third pier, and a large amount of
timber was lodged against the structure The
-boarding of the bridge had been removed
in number of places to allow the water to pass
through, but it was feared that great damage
would occur during the night. About half past
six o'clock several spans Of covered bridge from
the Juniata river, passed down the west side of
Thomas lslund, without lodging. Had it foated
down this side, no doubt great damage would have
been done to the railroad bridge
Communication with the Cumberland side of
the river is suspended, except by railroad, owing
to the high water on the island, between the
bridges
Near tie Black Horse Tavern the water had
reached the middle of Front street, at six clock
and Second street was submerged considerable
distance from the canal
Along Market street, east Of the canal. the
houses were standing in water to the depth of sew

This flood equals that of 1916, aswe are inform

vania railroad, Mr.. M'Cargo, has furnished us
with the following particulars of damage done
along the Pennsylvania railroad Thespan Of the
bridge that passed here last evening was not any
portion Of the railroad bridge, it was a covered.
road bridge, that spanned the Juniata near its
mouth, and broke IN three sections. One of the
sections passed safely under the Northern Central
bridge at Dauphin, but it carried away the lower
cords under one OF the spans Of the Pennsylvania
railroad bridge at Rockville, and consequently that
bridge cannot be used for travel until the cords are
replaced The span of the bridge is, however,
still standing The other two sections of the Ju-
nlata bridge lodged on the island near the cave
Several trucks of the Duncannon Iron company,
loaded with iron, were placed on the bridge for
the purpose of securing 1t they all fell into the
river with the bridge, and one of the cars was on
the span that passed here
A small culvert bridge on the Pennsylvania
railroad, east of Altoona, near Bells Mills, has
been washed away with some hundred feet of
railroad track. A small culyert at Upton, on the
same road, is also washed away
The western train, due here yesterday morning
at two clock arrived last night at seven and left
for Philadelphia, via the Lebanon Valley rail
road
The trains from Philadelphia run within six
miles of this city the culvert near Highspre is
washed out, and the track is completely overflow
ed for about one mile
The trains from the West, on the Pennsylvania
railroad will all pass over the Lebanon Valley and
Philadelphia and Reading railroads,
The trains from the south on the Northern Cen
trail railway arrived regularly yesterday, but we
can learn nothing from the northern portion of
that road. We hear it rumored that the bridge
at Williamsport has been swept away, but we have

articles in the English press and therecentdebates
in both houses of parliament on the Queen
speech, wherein frequent illusions are made to
American affairs, that the tone of the British
Government is all that can be desired by this
country In effect the ministry congratulates it
self that it neither yielded to blockade runners,
to rebel agents, or to the suggestions of the French
Government to recognize the South while it is
admitted in the debates that we have had many

General Grant ''That grim patience and almost
sublime selfforgetfulness which has kept for so
many months on slow, wearisome, comparatively
unbriliant task of holding Lee and his army as in
vice in Virginia, while his subordinates made
the brilliant marches and won the easy victories.
is something not very much admired the crowd,
but which history viii never forget or cease to eel
citrate. It's the union of these patient and self
contained qualities with the highest dash and dar-
ng-it is the exhibition of the most remarkable
energy and sagacity in seizing the opportune mo-
ment for the execution of his purpose-it is the
combination in his intellect Of an all-comprehen-
sive vision with the most extraordinary power of
coordination, which have already placed General
Grant in foremost position among the great mill
tary leaders of all ages .
