FREDERICK, March 18th.
The heavy rain which set in Saturday
morning, breaking the drouth which has
prevailed in Frederick county for several
weeks, has swollen the streams to such an
extent that they are all out of bank and much
damage is threatened if they continue rising
as they have today. The Monocacy river is
higher than 1t has been since 1889. The
river, which was nearly dry Yesterday, com
menced rising slowly and by noon today 1t
had swollen to roaring body, inundating
many hundreds of farms along its banks.
On the gas house road it IL backed up over
land one mile from its banks.
The water rose five feet from o'clock
today up to this evening and was still
rising, but not so rapidly as 1t did early in
the day The river was anoat with driflwood
of all descriptions, from monster trees and
logs to cordwood. There were also hay
stacks. pigpens, corncribs and other small
buildings seen floating down.
