TIE WATERS RISING.

The great downpour OF snow aud rain has
not yet had time TO show its effects upon the
river except ia giving the water, which was
already muddy, deeper hue. That the
stream will be greatly swollen by noon to-
day, however, Is quite certain, aud there Is
almost sure 10 be great freshet in the James,
as the rainfall all throughout the state has
been prodigious.
Several gentlemen who reached the city
last night from Chesterfield reported that the
small streams near the city had risen rapidly
and were already well nigh impossible.
There is every INDIGESTION Of big fresnet.

This church has never been IN better

there is not accommodation for the congre-

We're gathering dreams, and Loving them ore,
With never q shadow Of fear.
They're CLEANS from the drifts of whitened sand,
