Bridges Gone.

On yesterday the hardest rain Of
the season fell, between the hours Of
10 q. M, and Up. m. The bridges
on the extension of Second street, or
on tho Eddyvillo road, for six miles
west, commencing with that over
the Harrow Branch" have been
swept away, "clean shocking" We
were out on this road yesterday even-
ing, and were astonished at the raw
ages committed by every little gully,
rivulct, or creek. Not only has the
wooden part of the bridges washed
of, but the strong, heavy stone abut-
ments succumbed and tumbled into
the channel Of tho streams. Fences
were torn down and floatcd across
fields of struggling corn and stag
gering shocks Of wheat, and culverts
swept out clean, changing tho sur
face of the ground, and almost en-
tircly celebrating the old road. II
our farmer friends up the road have
any desire to como in to SEQ us, they
will have to come round the ridge
road, providing there is any of that
one left.
