The Recent Storm.

The rain commenced ut half past two I*. M.on Thursday, and continued till Saturday morning without hardly any intermission. It poured down in such torrents that on Friday morning,after hut one night's rain,the whole back country.as fi?r ascottld be seen was one expanse of water, Tho thunder which accompanied tho ruins seemed to threaten ter_..i :.! - -- - ' 1 ' - .iuiu umuiimirs, so nwim were t(s penis; the lightning was very vivid, n-?d flashed incessantly.
