burg has been submerged and the loss OF
property, estimated in dollars, reaches Mil

tress which beggars description aud the de
tails whercoftax the energies Of it. big daiiies
to recount. Thousands there, and IN the
other towns. driven from theiT homes toseek
shelter and sustenance in localities by ma
mre more highly favored. The railroads
and county roads under water for miles and
supplies cut of. 50 that famine faced the
masses, At Marietta fifteen persons were
drowned, some Of them children. They
were curiously viewing the waste Of waters,
when the river bank upoa which they stood
gave way. At Wellsburg the people were
