voked assault on young Tease, and beat and

very little II any dsmage-has not been as gem
tie with certain portions of New Jersey. Cam
den. Gloucester, and Burlington counties were
flooded for miles in extent, and O vast amount
of property was destroyed. Numbers of mill
dams upon the various creeks in the counties
named have been swept away, and among them
one very large one situated at Mantua village,
on the West Jersey Railroad, short distance
ftom Woodbury.. The mill at this dam was
partially destroyed, and $50 bushels of wheat
were swept along with the rushing current. All
the wagon bridges spanning these streams have
been swept away.
culvert on the Pemberton and Mount Holly
Railroad. between Ewingsville and Mount
Holly, was destroyed. and in consequence the
train due in Camden at 38 A. NJ. was unable to
proceed. The passengers were brought to Cam
den by train which left that place-went to
the scene and returned.
The trains on the Cape May Railroad were de-
layed by the flood.
II is also reported that the Good Intent woollen
mill, at BlaekwOodtown, has been seriously
damaged One or two dams on the Rancocas

ters mill, at Swedesboro, was much damaged,
as was also the surrounding properties. The
