A FLOOD AT cHRlsTlANA.

Water Two Feet Deep in the Post once.
Stocks OF Several Merchants Damaged.
Special correspondence EVENING JOURNAL.
CHRIsTIANA, Nov. 20.-The creek here
is very high, caused by the recent heavy
rains. II flooded all the lower portion of
the town and is the highest flood since
1876. Tire rain fell in torrents and the
small streams flowed into the creek al a
lively rate. The water rose so fast that
it gave hardly time to prepare for it.
The post office was surrounded, the
water being about two feet deep
in it. The mail was not
opened last evening, as the water
was so deep as to drive the postmaster
and his family up into the second story
of the building J. H. Smalley and wife
were also driven into the second story. A
high board fence around Webber & Bro S
coal yard broke off like pipe stems and
foated down the creek, as well.as lot of
coal that was piled near the wharf The
full extent of damages cannot be as
certained yet but it is likely that
Webber & Bro. s. loss will be considerable,
as the water was in the storehouse, where
a lot of -four and feed was packed.
There was rumor that Dayett's mill
dam, which had been undergoing repairs,
had broken. and great fear was expressed
that P!stt's cam might break. The
wntsr was very high in White Clay creek
aud st Stanton the water was so high
that 10 Cne could cross.

TIE next speakership for which the
different candidates are "hustling' now
will depend somewhat on the views OF
the respective candidates in regard to
Federal control Of the elections in the
Southern states. Two candidates, Reed
and Burrows. have very radical and pro
nounced views; such views as will meet
the demands Of the politicians who COM
pose the Malone Harrison alliance. Nc
Kinley Of Ohio, is more the representa-
tive of the niger tariff clique. He wrote
the plank in the Chicago platform de.
manding free whiskey rather than re
duce the tax on coal, iron,
tin, wool and sugar. He expects to win
votes among the Southern delegates by
promising to favor the reduction Of the
tax on tobacco Mr.. Cannon Of Illinois,
relies on his personal popularity while
Mr.. Henderson Of Iowa expects to run as
a dark horse. No one OF thsm viii
claim the distinctions of ability and abso-
Lutte fairness which is awarded to Mr..
Carlisle by common consent and popular
approval. No man ever sat in the
Speakers chair who won such q high
need Of praise or deserved It so richly as
John g. Carlisle. The Speaker who fol-
lows him has an example Of a high order
of political and personal virtue, in Office,
which is as rare as It Is admirable.
Mr.. Carlisle is as strong partisan, but a
far more able man than Mr. Blaine he
retired from the speakership with the
universal plaudits Of both parties. Mr..
Blaine had to undergo an investigation,
the consequences OF which, he escaped
by timely sunstroke. All of the candi-
dates in the isld now have less vulner-
able records than Mr.. Blaine, but Mr..
Reed Of Maine is a more intense parti.
san. 1t is likely that Mr.. Reed viii be
elected. II so the Fifty-first Congress
will likely be notable, If not notorious,
for extreme and intense partisanship.
