Boston Girls Sad Experience.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-John Morris and Frank Buck, two young white men, were charged in the Police Court to-day with com hitting rape on Mary Mansfield, young girl 16 years old, three weeks since. The prose- cutting attorney asked a postponement until next week and said the circumstances were of most fiendish character, and asked that the highest bonds be fixed. The court fixed bail at $3 ,OOo each. So far can be learned, this young girl arrived on late train in this city an entire stranger, and these fellows being about the depot offered to show her to boarding house, instead of which they took her through an open lot and knocked her down and committed the outrage. The young girl is from a village outside of Bos- ton and she left home without the consent of her parents. A telegram has been sent to the chief of police of Boston, and it is e1- pected request will be sent to forward her home. She is being kindly cared for here.

A City Deluged-PeopIe Driven From Their Homes-Unable to Rescue Their Household Goods - Factories Under Water and Deserted by the Hands.
 LONDON, July 15.-A terrific thunder
 storm has today deluged the town of North
 ampton, the capital of the county of the same name and the seat of Mr. Bradlaugh,
 member of Parliament. It is situated on the river Neue, a navigable stream, and is also
 on the line of the London and Northampton
 railroad, about sixty miles northwest of
 London. The storm almost unprecedented
 in violence and wonderful amount of water
 fell in short time. The Neue at once be-
 gan rising rapidly, and soon the water flowed into the lower windows of the factor
 ies Some of the latter standing n unusually exposed positions are nearly submerged. The swelling stream presently reached the town and the people, unable to rescue their
 household goods, are endeavoring to dam up the doors with clay, but with little effect
 Others who had somewhat longer warning succeeded in escaping to high ground with a part of their portable chattels. The manu- factures at Northampton are chiefly of boots and shoes, although the manufacture of cur rying leather is carried on extensively. There are also many varieties of mills. Great dam age has already been done and as this dis
 patch is sent the river is reported still rising. All the factories are abandoned and the hands
 are gazing helplessly on from all attainable
 eminences in the city The river is crossed at Northampton by two heavy stone bridges, which it is feared will be swept away. Much damage is also done to the Grand Junction canal and railway structures. The upper part of the town, located on the slope back of the river, is safe, and the inhabitants are mostly gathered there excitedly witnessing the scene.
