Heavy Rains and High Waters.

From the 9th to the 18th instant, al
most without intermission, the Valley,
and the country generally, as we learn
from oar ezcha nges, was visited with CO.
pious showers of rain. The rivers were
higher than they had been for several
years, and have been thoroughly cleased Of
the moss and other filth that had been
accommodating during the summer Con-
siderable quantities Of corn were injured
along the water courses and low grounds.
Fences were washed away in some instan-
ccs, and other property damaged.
The bridge across Stony Creek at Ed
inburg, on the Turnpike, was carried
away, thus cutting off the mails from the
South for several days This was very
unsubstantial structure, and it is probably
we'll that it was carried away. We have
not heard Of serious damage to any other
bridge Oh the road.
la consequence Of the destruction Of Sc
yeral of the bridges on the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, and damage done to the
track of the road at several places, we
received no regular mail from the North
until Monday night
