RICHMOND, May 8, 1873.
There are approximations felt that the Spring

quences than for years past. At Danvlle the
river Dan is higher than It has been
before On the memory OF the "oldest In
habttant," and 1t Is still rising. Families
are neelng from their threatened homes
at some points, while at others the houses
have been swept away and much valuable prop
erty has already been destroyed. A despatch says
hundreds OF people are collected on the banks Of
the river watching the gradual rising Of the waters
and trembling for the safety or their property 1t
is feared the whole country In that section will be
inundated. At Lexington the North River has
risen very rapidly, and the roads are all

DANvILLE, Va, May 8. 1873.
This has been day OF intense interest and ex.
element for this city. The unusually heavy and
continuous rains OF the past two days have caused
the most extensive and destructive freshets ever
known In Dan River. Never was such food
seen by the Oldest inhabitants. The river continues
to rise, and great fears are entertained for the
safety OF the wagon bridge, which is now almost
reached by the angry waters. The damage to
fences, houses, barns and bridges cannot be esti-
mated. The banks OF the river have been lined all
day by eager spectators anxiously watching the
oncoming water. Large numbers OF families living
near the river in places hitherto entirely
safe have been compelled to fee from
their dwellings, leaving their houses, out
houses and gardens submerged, while half dozen
small tenement houses have been swept entirely
away. with all their contents. There have been
several narrow escapes from drowning. but for
tunately no lives lost. The beer garden
and saloon recently constructed on Reed
Island, o short distance down the river,
have been carried away with the furniture and
stock. The extensive foundry and machine shops
Of Messrs. Crews, Rhodenhiser & 90. are flooded
with water. and their losses are heavy In timber,
fixtures and damage to machinery. The worst
consequences are apprehended.
