RAINS AND THE RIVER.

Ccarruj Enns Along the James-VVer Val
Iey-The stream NavlGablc.
The cloudy, misty weather which we
have been having for day or two past
ripened into a heavy rain about !
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. which last
ed for rather more than four hours.
The rain extended all the way up the
James-Riyer Valley to Clifton Forge.
At Lynchburg 1t was heavier in the
forenoon and up to about l:50 p. NJ,
when it commenced to slacken, and du-
ring the afternoon it was showery. Be-
tween Lynchburg and Richmond the
rain was, generally speaking, about as
in Richmond. There was comparatively
none at Lexington.
The weather report received at the
Richmond and Allegheny telegraph Of
fee at o'clock yesterday afternoon
showed the rise in the river to be > J
feet at Lynchburg; 5 feet at Balcony
Falls, 3 feet at Columbia, and rising
slowly at all Of the points mentioned.
This rise, it is generally believed. is
due more to the melting Of the recent
heavy snow than to the rain. In fact
the rain solely could not have affected
the river so soon.
The river here last night was about
four feet above usual winter tide. It's
not probable that it will be more than
few feet higher.
The steamship Wyanoke arrived at
the Old Dominion wharyes here Thurs
day night-the first arrival for over
week. The same boat left at , P. NJ.
yesterday for New York.
The schooner Alice, with wheat and
hay. is sunk in twenty-five feet Of
water a short distance below Richmond.
Navigation is now open, and it is
hoped will remain so for good.
The credit Of breaking up the last ice
blockade is largely due to the tug

Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1886-02-13
Recess taken until / o'clock.

The first matter was the judicial cir
cult bill Senate bill.
Mr.. Terry moved to postpone for fif-
teen minutes so that House bill to
amend the law in relation to warrants
for small claims might be considered.
Agreed to. lie then moved an amend
ment thereto, which was agreed to, and
the bill was then ordered to its engross-
mcnt and third reading.
Several other bills were ordered to
engTOssment.
The consideration of the judicial cir
cult bill was then continued.
Mr. Porter got the floor and spoke in
favor of taking Surry ont Of the First
Judicial circuit and putting it into the
second.
Mr. Downing said that, as member
Of the Committee on Courts, this ar
Iargement of the circuits was the most
practicable and advisable. - II seems
that nobody wants Surry. | never
heard any harm of this little county.
1t would probably be better to make it
n separate circuit, and appoint the gen.
tleman from Portsmouth Mr.. Porter
and let him move over there"
Mr.. Figgat reviewed the remarks of
Mr.. Porter, which, he claimed, appear
ridiculous by reference to the report of
county clerks, from which he read. lie
slowed that Surry circuit judge was
only occupied about five or six days in
The year m that county.
Mr.. Porter said that the work Of
county Judge was not only during the
actual days he was in court, but also
the time occupied in considering the
cases.
Mr.. Mayo asked where it was pro-
posed to put Surry.
Mr.. Porter replied: In the Peters
burg circuit.
The pending question-Mr. Porter's
amendment-was ordered.
A vote was taken and the amend
ment adopted-ayes, 81; nays, 26.
Mr.. Stuart (Alr. Pollard in the chair
moved to reconsider the vote by which
the amendment Of Mr.. Porter was
adopted.
The House agreed to reconsider
ayes, 80; nays, %.
Mr.. Porter here got the floor again
and spoke at length on the subject,
urging his reasons in favor Of the change
he proposed. The stronger the oppo-
sitiOn became, he said, the more he
would fight for what he considered
right. and he would no longer detain
the House if he was sure Of the result
Of the next vote taken on the subject.
lie finally gave way to motion to ad-
journ, made by Mr.. Moss.
The motion was lost.
Mr.. Buchanan favored the bill as it
came from the Senate.
Mr.. Munford called the pending ques-
ton, which was ON Mr.. Porter's motion
to amend the bill.
A vote was taken, but it was found no
quorum was voting.
Mr.. Echols moved to adjourn. Lost.
The vote then recurred on Mr.. Por-
ter's amendment, which was rejected.
Mr.. Munford called the pending ques-
lion, the passage of the bill.
The bill passed-ayes, 46, noes, 10.
Adjourned.
THE RAILROAD BILL.
The friends Of the railroad bill in its
present shape, trust that upon recon-
sideration they will be able to get the
fifty-one votes necessary to pass 1t.
They are by no means certain about
this, but they were very hopeful yester-
day.

ted. The ire at the Women's Work

rooms at 3l6 east Franklin street were
immediately secured, put in order, and
all salable articles placed upon exhi-
biJion, so that the business of the Ex-
change goes regularly on from to-day.
The domestic department contained a
full line Of preserved fruits, pickles,
ETC., which were entirely uninjured,
and the managers invite all who desire
to aid others less fortunate than them
selves to make their purchases aud to
give their orders at the Exchange.
They also earnestly solicit annual sub
scriptions. The membership fee is two
dollars, for which sum the subscriber
is privileged to enter the work of
three persons for enc year, and in the
benefits conferred this small sum has
ofteSbssn multiplied one hundred fold.
