F.<-jm thc Abbeville Banner, 2nd inst. DISASTROUS FLOOD. Our Distries was visited on Friday last with 4.e most disastrous freshet ever known in this region. The los-s of pr.operty in Crops, Stock, BrIdges and Mills, we are satisfied will not fall short of half a million of dellars. Scarcely a bridge has been left in the District, and commu nication in many parts entirely cut oil. Of the mills we have heard from, appear to be all more or less damaged, and only two or three can do grinding up to this time within twenty miles. Several fine merchant mills have been swept entirely away, and others irreparably injured. '.his itself is a calamity upon the people, and - the difficulty of getting grinding is great. The destruction to the Corn crop upon bottom lands is immense which will have the tendency to keep up the price for twelve nmonths more; from all we can learn, lifteen thoirsand dollars will not rebuild the bridges that hu.ve been taken away. During the rain a whirl- wind passed over the edge of our Village and. completely destroyed the house of Mr. Willie m Knox whicli was a frame building and reeer.tly put up ; Mrs. Knox ivas in the house at the: time and much injured ty timber falling upon her. Some of the sta bles and out-houses of Mr. Joseph Moore was also much injured. This rain although it lasted but one day fell in torrents. and the very win "dows of heaven seeied opened and to threaten us with another general deluge. It will long be remembered as one of the must extraordina ry freshets that has ever been known, in this edistrict. We trust that the fenrs of our farm ers have caused them to represent their losses far greater than they will be found upon further examination. Onr people were but illy pre. pared for such losses in thefr crops. God grant that it may be long before similar scenes are witnessed here. Since writing the above we have been enabled fo gather additional particulars of the destrue tion caused by the freshet, and every item goes te confirm waint we have heard and stated. We are informed 'by lion. D. L. Wardlaw, who has a plantation immediately on the bank of Little River, that his prospects for a crop are entirely blasted. The damage done to his fencing and land is very great i he thinks he will not be able to replace his fencing until after the gathering of what may be left of his crops. Ile further state-, that the river at his plantation was four feet and ten inches biiaher than ever known be fore. Mr. Parmer an2 others in that neighbor. hood have sustained heavy losses also ; and fur. up on the river, Col. Martin and Mr. Jas. Faii are sufferers to a large extent. On Long Caine thme destruction ha:s been equally as great, Mr Charles Dendy has lost the larger portion oh Isis crop and fencing, also HI. A. Jones, Esq. 0 course there are- many others inore or less in lared qpon these streams, the particulars o which we have not heard, as communication i much interrtupted.___ m . From every quarter wye hear the most dis. tressing accounts of the destruction caused bj the storm and copious rains of last Friday h~e water courses have been higher than hia ver before been known. Savannah River, wi earn, has been somec four feet higher than a1 ny time within the recollection of the oldesi nhabitanit. Other rivers and stream' som<l .ight or toin feet. There is scarcely a mill 01 ridge standing ; and those mills that have not en swept away~, have beenm so damaged that hey cannot grind fur some time, and the coun. ry will experience much inconvenience on this core. The destrtuction hias been so general hiat wve cannot particularize. WVe have hieari t one gentleman, whose loss is not less than iv or seven thousand dollars. We learnm that me Railroad bridges over Saluida and Broad iver have been partly carried olY. We hope ie injury is not great,'and may be repaired. The crops are certainily very much injured. ough to what extent, we are not able to say. ome persomis have lost one half, some two iirds, and some nearly all. Weu have heard e average loss estimated at one third the crop this section. WVe understand, however, that e injury hats not been near so great in Pickens istriet, as the rain was not so heavy there, and e water courses, having more fall, carried off e water faster. It has been exceedingly tryin~g to the farmer, behold his years' labor swept away almost in inomnent. It will1 he a sore visitation to many, to were blessed with the pirospect of abun nee. lint it is a lesson which should teachl ,lhow entirely wec arc in the hands of Provi nee. 'he Farmer's loss is the loss of the whole untry. for all other trades and profesionls, are 'endant (in him for the staple of life. Iis tiry, therefore, will be felt and sympathized by all.--Anderson Gazette. EfRJTnLE FaRsHET.-Thecre never was be. e, since the settlement of the counitry, such eshet as we had last week in Greenville trict. The water courses were several feet her than they were ever known to be before. the bridges and a great nnmber of mills e been sweut awvav. Tfhe corni on thu low nmds is destroyed,'or most seriouisly inju:red. several places the embankments of our Iroad have been destroyed, and several of eiverts carried off' or demolished. The on factory and paper mill ot' Mr. McBee, the pape~r mill of the Greenville Manufac ng Company have been greatly damaged. have not, heard from the other factories in district. All communiention has been cut vithi the surrounding country by the loss of ~es, and the difficulty in fording the creeks riversa. The Reedy'Falls in the village of nvillo were quite an object of attraction on rday. They were Niagara in miniature, ur cit izens and the visitors, men, women childrcn,- turned out en mansse to witness md1( spectacle pr'esentedl by the raging and ing waters dashing over the falls and down recipice.-Souithern Patriot. EDISAsTEns OP THlE FRtEsfET.-Every he miost distressing accounts are brought of the inijtury done by the late flood of Lester & Kihgore's woolI factory, saw blacksmith shops, are all carried off their turned ump.ide down, andI in the cotton y everything covered with mud. Their estimated at $2,000. factory of WV. Bates & Co., very so injur."l. The factory of John Weaver, inj ured considerably. The Greenville lie:turing Co mpaniy have sustained several uid dollars dlamage. The mills through ocountry have been swept awvay. We tand that the freshet has been worse on galoo and Savainnah rivers.-lbid. REeENT FREsJIET, THlE CROt's, die.-.. ester Standard of the 1st instb., says: shets resulting from the rains of Friday1 da:y night last, of which accoutnts con.N o reach us from every sectioin of the have been li-lt very injuriously in this also. The Broad and Catawba Rivera, -evra larereks thiat cnnre throutrh the District are represented to have:been-higher than was ever before known. The crops on the bottom lands of the large streams have been injured. and to a great extent, entirely destroyed. ltich fields of corn and cotton that promised more abundaity than ever before, have bteen completely inandated. Very con .siderab!- damage has beetn felt in tile dest rue tion of bridges, dams, &e., it, we think, not to the extent reported elsewlhere. 4 The prospects of upland erops, particularly of cotton, are also much crhanged by reason of the continued rains and cold nights. Very little progress has been made in the curing of fodder, althosgr the season is now pretty well advanc ed. Few have succeeded in properly curing any portion of the crop, whilst the most of that whiei has been pulled is much damaged or wholly lost. Since Satutday evening we have had clear and pleasant weather; and it is hoped that the season will prove more favorable fur the na-. turing and gathering of the crops. We are gratified to learn that no damage has resulted to any portion of the Charlotte and South Carolina Railroad from the recent freshets. It was reported on Saturday that the bridge over one fork of Fishing Creek was carried away; but the whole damage appears to have been in the sinking of one or two of the posts of the trestle. It was remedied in time I for the train to pass over that evening. DISASTrnous FAESNET.-During the past week i':ere war an almost incessant fall of rain, in conseqnence of which, the streams of our Dis itiet are swollen to- an extent hitherto uneqalled. The Cotton crop- is injured considerably, and we think the low-ground corn crop entirely des troyed. Corn lands, which promise to' yield thirty and forty bushels to the acre, were for two or three days covered by water-the tassel just appearing above it. Tfhe Saluda tiver, while we write, is seven feet higher than it was in the great Yazoo freshet of '96-or has ever been since. Dwelling houses, mills, bridges, all have been swept away by this tremendous flood. The bridge belonging to the Greenvilt Rail Road Company across the Saluda is still standing-ainyost "-alone in its glory"-for in deed it is the only one that we heard of as yet that has not beaen washed away-even that beautiful bridge, belonging to the same Com pany, across Broad River, at Alston, which was so generally admired-it too has gone. Consi derable damage has been done to the trestle work beyond Broad River-but to what extent cannot be ascertained. Thus we might continue to write, for almost every moment we hear of some new disaster, but we will desist. The dinage to the District is indeed immense. The loss to the R-til Rload Company cannot at present be estimated. But can you not foresee some of the consequences to o'ur Town? We like not to grunible-so will cease our complaints, trusting that soon the road will be rebuilt, and the injuries, its far as may be repaired. There is orne at the head of the Company, who was never known to give up to despair. . He, we know, with his indomii table energy will soon come forward and push the work bravely on. We say to one and all -" Look to the President."-Newberry Senti nel. STOnM A D FIIEIJHErs IN THE INTEnTon. Our assitant and two collectors attached to this oflice, returned from the interior yesterday, the two latter having been detained fron hotme several days by high water. We aseertain fron them that the upper portion of the State was, on Thursday last, visited by a heatvV storm of wind, which completely prostrated nearly all the corn, and did some injury to the growing cotton On Thursday afternoon it commenced pour ing down rain, and continuted to do so until Friday afternoon. Such a heavy fall of water in the same space of time, was never knownt before. We further learn that there is scarcely a bridge or mill left standing on any of the rivers and creeks. The damage that has been done is almost inealculable.--Augusta Cuonsti tutionalist and Reptiblic, Aug. 3 1st. ,vith the most hopeful, on yesterday. We have rerely witnessed so much deep teeling and anxiety as have prevailed in our commuity dur ing the past twoe or three days on his aecount. adit must be consolatory to hsfriends and relatives to know that the strongest sytmpathties of our community were manifested throughout these days of suspense. Three sepatrate parties of our citizens, on Tuesday night and WVednes day proceeded up thte river, and were indefatti ga ble in their search for hinm, or if dead, to re cover the body. But we regret that, their gen erous and praiseworthv efforts have as yet piro ved unsuccossfull, an'd their return yesterday has dispelled all hope of his having survived. Col. Brown was a inost faithful and eflicient oflicer, untiring in the discharge of the duties that devolved upon him, and his energy arid practical skiid contribuated vastly to the success and prosperity of the Greentit ic road. 'I he Campany have sustained a loss in him which will be heavily felt and one, owing to his knowl edgre and thorongh acquaintance withI the deC tails of thoeconstructiomn of the road, and the necessary requirements for its completion, which they will not be able to supply. It is probably superfluous to sy that his bereaved uand strickent family and relaiives have the deepest synmpathies of the whole commounity in their sad affliction. The intense interest Imanifested, and the gladness which became evi dent, as reports of Cul. B's safety would reach us demonstrated that our people felt a deep in terest in his fate.-Carolinian Sept. 3rd. HoS--PRICES ASD PtosPE~CTS OF TUE NExT Cnor.-The Cincinnati Price Current reports hogs in every region of Kentucky and In-diana, as largely increasing in n umbers and of better quality, and adds: We hear but little front Illinois, Town and Mlissouri ; but, considering the scareit y of last seaison, it in more thtan probable there will be an increatse rather than a farlling ofT, as we seldoni have two seasons of scarcity together. Throughout Ohio we learn that more young hogs are being fe?d than usual, atnd in many see Itionis, ant increase oIf one-third is ant icipate-d. The highl price of ptork has caiused the farmuers through~out the WVest to bestow as much care atnd attenttion upon their pigs as they do upon their chtildrent. Throughout mtany sections of the South, the planters are making strong ent deanvors to "grow their own meat." We hear of contracts by the packers for the future delivery of some 20,000 hogs, to be fat tened in lndiana, at 3 and 34 cents, gross. Several thousand have beent entgaged by- Madt son packers, for thte next seasont. at 4 atnd 41 1-2 cents, net. We hear also of various contracts in Ketutcky, at 3 and 3 1-2 cents, gross, to be delivered whent fattenedl, in the fall. A sale of 1,000 head had been tmade, delivcre-d here, at 4 1-2 cents. One of our prinicipal provision dealers and packers sold 100 barrels of mess oork otn Monday, to be ntade of thte next erop, and to be delivered in Junte, 1852, at $15 per barrel, which is $5 per barrel less than the present prices. rThe above we believe to be an accurate and implartiatl statemnent of the present conditiotn of the forthcoming "ltog crop," annd we leave the reader to draw his own cotnclutsionts in regard to the prospect of the tnext season. KILLED DY A EECt.-We understand that a nman by the name of Garnett, residing itt Greente coun~iy, having attettded a special ee. tion recently held ini that countty, statrtedl for home, wvhich was some dlistanice oly about dark.

SINCE our last issue we have learned that Mr. TosAS LA3tAR, one of our most enterprising and generous young felLow-citizens, reflected lasting cre dit upon himself and wton the high commendations of all by his untiring efforts to relieve the distress occa sioned to the people of Hamburg by the tremendous. inundatiotl of the 29th uilt. ' The Messrs. HOLLY also refedered most eflicient service 'upon that alarming a cecasion. P Our inclination chimes in with our duty in giving c publicity to disinterested conduct like this. It is richly worthy of record. TIlE RECENT GREAT FRESIIET, C Foa accounts of the destructive floods of water a which have lately inundated almost every part of the t Southern Statee, we refer our readers to the extracts e from various authentic sources which we publish this f week. The conclusion is that this Freshet, although exaggerated as to certain localities, is withal the most disastrous ono ever experienced among us. In our own State, immense injuries have been sustained by many planters. Such however is the abundance of our provision crops all ovet the country, tdiat these disasters, however trying upon individuals, will not perceptibly aflect the general weal. The Rail-Road Companies have suffered, in some instances, very seriously. We fear it is a sad blow to the Greenville and Columbia Rail-Road Company, struggling as they were to carry on their enterprise to success. The boss of their Chief-Engineer, Col. Baow.N, is even more unfortunate for them than their pecnniary loss. For lie was the very soul of this undernaking almost from its commencement, and we imagine it will be most diflicult to supply his place. It was indeed a inalancholy circumstince, the unfor. tunate death of this enterprising and talented man, in the very meridian of life, his labors after distinc tion in his profession just crowned with success, and lorked up to by a young and dependant family. They have our warmest sympathies. Wishing that it mtay be long before we shall be called upon to record so much of destruction and suffering again, we point our readers to the selections we have made for their information upon these points and leave the subject. OV'R ADVERTISING COLUMNS. We would respectfully call the attention of the business public to the extent and neatness of our advertising department. Without boasting, we assert , confidently that no typos surpass our own in that taste of arrangement and skill of execution, necesary to give completeness of finish to every portion of a paper, and especially to set forth in handsome promi nence the publication of advertising notices. In this respect we are willing to stand the test of oomparison with any sheet in the State. When we add to this that there are not perhaps a half dozen of our Caro lina cotemporaries which equal us in extetit of eir culation, wve think we may safely recommend our paper to business men at large and particetlarly to those of our own section, of Ihamiburg and Augusta, Iof Newberry, of Columbia and of Charleston, a. a most valuable advertisiung medium. It is with grati tude that wye acknowledge the patronage of this kitid whsichr is now bostowed upon us with such sen sible liberality Ly.,saw-e..[fjutfa ""' There are a good many new advertisements to which we had desired to cull the attention of our readers this week; but wve have already occupied suflicient space upon this apparently selfish topic. Let us but say, once for all,"'look over our two exten sive business pages weskly, if yout wihh to find out somnething for your good froma time to time.

CAMrDEL's address, delivered before " ItaCovEaR LoDGE.," at Greenville. The address is an able vindication of Masonry. We aere amply repaid by its perusal, both as regards information, interest andI entertainment. We find in it a beautiful and touching tribute to the memory of those gallont spirits, BuLT.ER andI MasON. Indeed, | we have read nothing lately with more real gratifi cation. THlE LATE MR. lATTA, Tuits worthy old man, whose death we see an notunced in the Columbia papers, was truly a person of no ordinary worth.

Steh seems to be the opitnion of financiers tonerally. The leading paper of the Union (te New ral kork Iferadi) centers into an elaborate and most inge- tiv ious argumetnt to prove that such will be the case, ed .nd in fact that our great staple nmust henceforth oc- e upy a batsis of exchanigc so firm and imperative as to T scape entirely the fluctuationsa to which it has been qui 'ithierto subject. The only impediment to thu con- dol ummnation of this condition of thitigs is the spirit of see bholition, which still rages with unabated fury and of ilikely to do so for a season. This overcome, (and spa c somnetimnes indulge the hope that it. own fanatical 1 bsurdi'ies will be the death of it,) and our Southern ec iome becomes at once the very gardent of the earth, mo - nobe, prodtietits an , through tne Istrminental of the rctina therefor, to '*eet thei moRt da.linig well as the nicht elevated civilization mankind hitve -r known. Let us ponder upon the glorious prosperity which- e - cotton prospects of our country, (if perseveringly veloped by negro servitude,) open tip in' the future and let us determine to dcfefd those interests, not ly for the benefit of ourselves and our contented d daily improving laborers, but from principles of neficence towards the whole human race. Thosi i stand boldly forth, in thiaiige of cant and false inanity, for the maintenance orat least the. com tie toleration of our Southen' instirution, are the )e benefactors of their race; and sensible and un ejudised men everywhere are coming to this conclu orf. it4 C01iGRESSJALs TI tegislatite Session or 1852 has at Iength ought its business to a elei -Congress adjourned >on the day appointed, the 31st ult.. nnd its proceed gs must necessarily have their effecht whether it be r better or worse. The first four or five mnnths of thie session was Lsed in long and elaborate speeches upon questions, not foreign to the business of either house, at least ich as might have been disposed of in quick order, id with little or no discussiun. ICossu-T nnd his ttriotism, Hungary and her wrongs occupied, we tn safely say, two months of the session, and al iongh the question involved, il relation to the Great [ungarian and the fate of his lamented country, ere entirely extraneous to the purposes for which ongress had assembled, yet Jore time, labor and rgument were expenled in upm intervention inn any other single subject o0teo session. To this iuse, however, we are indebted for some remarkably ne speeches, perhaps the best of the past Congres anal setting. The interminable printing question and the Presi. ential election contained in them the germs of nmuch hicanery, bargain-making and arty electioneering irsomuch that the speeches thetn, although care lly preptred and delivered e a set phnise of peech" reflected no credit ipon their authors-in eed the subjects were ordinary, and the remarks in elation thereto did not rise above them. Thus the rst part of the session, crowded as it was with such ever-ending discussions upon uninteresting and, to .cry many, unintelligible questions, progressed bitt lowly. It was impossible for i to rid itself (if tho iass of unimportant debates with which it was en umbered, and therefore was compelled to grope as it vere in the political maze. The contests between Vhigs andi Democrats, Abolitionists and Shive-hold. re, &c., seemed to lie like that of Virgil's suains ter plus scribere possit, and consequently seemed like a wounded snake dragging its blow leingih long.'1 The great celerity, however .witli which both louses have latterly dispatched their respective btsi. ess reflects credit ttpn the members, and will in a reat measure redeem the short comings of the first art of the session. The immense rush of business towards the close of lie session was cheerfully met and quickly dispiosed f. The various committees wdre greatly hurried,.

The writer (who, by the way, is o editor) speaks of the Baptists there as defendling e " principles of spiritual religion" against the ibinedl attack of a " Puscyite, a disciple of Wve. cv anid a pupil of CAltviN."
