HIau WATER CoMIEq.-The dispatches
from Pittsburgh yesterday we're Of sucl
a character that those who read the
bull letins at the telegraph office began to
entertain fears OF freshet, and speculate
as TO the probable volume Of water cx,
pected. All day long group Of anxious
inquirers for late kilograms could be
seen in the vicinity Of the Western
Union office. II seemed 10 bC
the general belief, however, thai
unless the Monographs an,l Ale
gheny should both run out at the same
time, there would hardly he enough water
here TO put the Island PeOplcto any espe
cial trouble. The river here was falling
allday, with the exception Of N rise OF
five or six inches cansed by the creek
running out. We understand that rise
Of about twelve inches was OccasionGd by
the same cause short distance below the
city. Last night the marks indicated
less than eighteen feet, and still falling
slough it is probable that the water
commenced to rise before This paper
went 10 press. Dispatches from above
containing the latest river news will be
found in another column.
The river men hereabouts do not an.
ticipate more than thirly.iive feet OIL
water at the farthest. That amount
might discommode those living on Cald'
wellS Run, near the mouth of thai
stream, and on the low land In the
southern part Of the city, but would mol
result in any great damage TO property
So far as the Islahd people are concerned
they need apprehend 10 tlanger.J Il viii
require thirty.eight feet Of water to gel
into the houses in Stonetown, which w
all know are more exposed than those al
any other point on the Island.

The operation consisted in the total re.
moval Of the Ulcer up to tic margin Of
healthy tissue, and the transferring Of the
skin otLhc nose To the defect thus consli.

inaSmuch as the lady has two healthy and
almost normally shaped eyelids which
serve as a perfect protection and, more.
