ALONG THE POTOMAC.

The view of the desolation wrought by that
mighty river along its shore from Point of
Rocks to Harper's Ferry is appalling and dis
tressing. Point of Rocks was submerged. The
water was IS feet above hgh-water mark and 8
feet higher than during the memorable freshet
of 1877. People were rescued from their houses
in time to save their lives, but houses and house.
hold goods were given up TO the tide. The
streets of the village are thick with mud and
filth and the wrecks of ruined houses and debris.
Similar scenes are to be found at Knoxville,
Weverton, Berlin, and Sandy Hook. At Har-
per's Ferry the scene is still more desolate
The losses here will aggregate at least $780,
000 Sandy Hooks loss, including that of the
railroad and canal, will reach S35 900; Berlin,
$500; WevertOn, $4,000; Knoxville; SIC, 900,
and Point of Rocks, $4,000.

of the flood at the latter place was the rescue
from Heaters Island Of Robert Cornell, his
wife and two children, by Carl A. Keyser. OF
Washington, and John Steadman. of the Point
Cornell owns big farm on the island and lived
there with his family. When he saw the flood
coming he drove his stock to the second floor
of the barn and stable and with his family re-
tired to the top OF the house. Later he fired q
gun as signal of distress, and Keyser and his
companion started out in q boat and rescued
them.
THE MAGNIFICENT IRON TURNPIKE BRIDGE
in course of erection across the Potomac at
Point of Rocks was victim of the food. Four
spans on the Virginia shore were swept away
Saturday night, and lie shattered ruin along
the banks of the river. The contractors will
lose $4,000. Large quantities of supplies have
been sent to the villagers from Frederick !,
Buckeystown and other sections of the county,
and all the needy ones will be cared for
Similar work is being done in behalf of the
needy at the other villages mentioned above
andat Harpers Ferry. A severe blow has been
dealt the progress of this latter place. The
frightened occupants of the houses in the course
of the torrent were compelled to flee to the
highlands. where they sought shelter in the
schools, churches and homes of their neighbors
five and six families in a single house waiting
| and watching for the subsiding of the water
1t will be many days before affairs in the valley
Of the Potomac from Point of Rocks up will
| assume their natural shape, and never will the
! inhabitants forget the food of 1889. FIN.
