Sonic weeks ?igo_ Bc hinted that tl-? power of llic Augusta fanni VHS now practically utilized by Manufacturing establishments. Tho Augusta papers ?tate that 13,000,000 hus bee n put into this business in that ? itv sine thc cen sus of 1S80. is not this pretty good as surance that n similar development of water power in tbis State will bc the source of grctit manufacturing develop ment here? If Augusta bad wailed about building ber Canal until she knew where the money wan coming from to put factories on it before building lier Canal, the Savannah would still hu flow ing unproductive along thc limit* of her city, where now thc bu^y bum of ma chinery is heard, affording employment to hundreds of operatives, and giving prosperity and thrift to the whole com munity. Fortune only smiles upon those who lay bold of the good things nature fitits in our reach, and thc people who adopt the Micawber plan of waiting for sonic thing to turn up, will, like Micuwber, spend their day's in this unprofitable employment, und end in stagnation, while their progressive neighbors around them will grow und. prosper ill propor tion to their thrift and energy. For three weeks now ibo public has suffered from the ruilroad outrage im posed upon travel lera on the Blue Ridge Railroad, und yet no effort !>n? been made by the Railroad Commission to give them r.ny relief. Indeed, tho Com mission hus not even appeared to notice tho fact, which is patent to everybody clsu in thc State. It may lui that tho Commission i* wailing for sonic formal presentation of the grievance for their action. This is probably the explana tion of the failure to act, for we cannot believe that tho outrage will be sane tioticd by thc Commission. It behoove* every city, town and village, along the Hue of the Blue Ridge, to memorialize tho Commission for relief from tho pres ent railroad tyranny. Let us test the matter promptly before, by acquiescence, we give color tu thc propriety of the change, which entails so much inconven ience and actual danger to tho travelling public. If the Commission cannot help us in this matter, il is a worthless ma chine, which lind better be abolished as Koon as possible, for if the Slate either cannot or will not protect its citizens against such corporate insolence und tyranny, then we ha t belter not have thc pretense lo wot ry and vex our masters into Blieb exercise of sovereign, arbitrary power. If this is so, let u? throw our selves entirely upon tho charity of our sovereigns. If, however, tuc Stnlo cnn help ber subjects, ns tho friends of the present railroad legislation believe, this is a good instance in which to exhibit tho power. It will be exerted in a just causo, [jet the petitions be forwarded at once and test the efficacy of tbe pres ent railroad law. Thc announcement ol' the establish ment of another faelmy in the peniten tiary of this State, is a piece of news which shows the importance of as early a completion of the Columbia Cauul as possible. We now have two factories, the shoo factory and this stocking factory, in thc walls of tho penitentiary, run by the little power of thc present Canal. These enterprises employ convicts at re munerative prices, and consume nil tho power which the Canal now has. As Bo m as the Canal is completed, wc will be able to lease out for long terms, all the convicts to companies working iusido our prison walls. As things stuud now, convicts aro principally used on tho phosphate works, which is very unheal thy employment, from the fact that they aro situated in malarial regions, and a groat deal of tho time the convicts are kept working in water. The result of this is a very large death rate, and also the constant return of broken down hands to the penitentiary to bo nursed and supported during sickness, at the expense of the State. Humanity re quires that this mode of employing con victs shall he abandoned as Boon as tho Stale can arrange to employ tho convicts inside of tho prison. There ia, however, a good financial reason, also, for the change, which may be found not only in the increased prosperity induced by manufacturing, but also in staple wages for the convicts. Uuder the present Byatem of work, the wages paid for con victa dependB on the price of phosphates. Last year they were hired out at fifteen dollars per month. This year they only bring twelve and n half dollars per month. Next yoar they may tall to eight or ten. If wo had the labor en gaged in manufacturing upon long con tracts, the State would not be subject to these fluctuations iu prices. The estab lishment of this Htocking factory ?lions, also, that the idea of waiting to have capital ready to build factories before the State dcvelopes her Canal ?3 not good policy. Two months ago no one could have pointed out tho capital that is now going into this business os ready for in vestment here, and yet by having the in ducements ready it quietly comes in and we get the benefit of ita location in thia State, while it would have gone else where, and we would never have known anything of the chance of getting it, if our facilities had not been ready to offer them. 'This investment is of course comparatively small, but it shows the necessity of being ready to attract capi tal if we want it. Tn ten years after the completion of the Columbia Canal, the City of Columbia will equal Augusta in manufacturing importance. - Congress loaned the Centennial Exposition, at Philadelphia in 1876, a million and a half-every dollar of Which was repaid, notwithstanding the outcry of demagogues that the money was "given away for a show." The Cot ton Exposition bili baa now passed Con Sress, but not a cent has been contributed y the government towards the expense or it. None was asked, we believe. The Exposition will be opened by proc lamation of thft President, and will be managed by thirteen Commies loners to be appointed by him, and to act in con junction with the Cotton Planters' Asso ciation and the city where the Exposi tion will bo held. It will be conducted, In every respect, like the Centennial, except that it gets no money from the government.-Charlotte Journal. TH K CA KUM NA Ct'MIIKKLANI) <i.\V AM) CIUUAUO.

These will Bccure ihe Carolina, Cumber land Gap and Chicago, outlet at nulli ind?, the contracts being good for ten years from the lime the new road begins to haul freight.

When work is commenced it will be pushed to completion with a rapidity unparalleled in the South. (len. Hngood desires us to distinctly understand thst success is not assured. What he does say, however, ls a quiet, business like view of the winde work shows that much has already been ?lorie, ami thal the prospects for thc completion of the road of at least as much as lies in this Stale within two venia aro excellent, negotiations being josi now in the condi tion of reasonable probability of success. If every ihing works ns well as ?shoped and the rond ii built, it will practically run by Greenvill , although it may not bo brought exactly to ber incorporate limits. This will depend in il measure, however, on the interest shown by the city and the aid she is willing to give. We can say very confidently that there will be no lacking in that respect, Greenville will do whatever alie may tv required In do in reason. I ?ur people may be assured that their hopes for relief from thc syndicate and direct communication willi the great West and the ocean arc well founded. There is no fu?s ami feathers about tho men in charge of ihe Carolina, Cumber land Gap and Chicago. Tliey mako no Haltering promises, and do nol do busi ness through thu newspapers. They aro nol id, quiet, thorough business mon, and aro steadily nm! constantly at work. Their result? will be seen and known only when they nre accomplished. As soon us this road is built Anderson must'aild will haven branch to Smith't Store, which will give us practical ly thc advantages of the new line. The twenty live thousand dollars waiting for th? Savannah Valley liait road will bi enough to build it, and if Augusta or thc people along the line du not subscribe the twenty-live thousand dollars notes sary to secure the road, Anderson, nc doubt, will use her money in thal way. Coll?n Kni'toriei. To Editor of the Ander inn Intelligencer: As a former resident of Anderson who has lost none of his i ti I crest in Un success and prosperity of your town, j desire to congratulate you upon tho edi torial in ibis week's isMie urging tho itu p?rtam e of cotton factories upon the at tent ion of your fellow-citizens. Yoi cannot remler better service to the pres eut and future generations of Andcrsoni ans than by persevering in this line. I is a mutter of surprise to many that with the financial progress and sagacity of your pcnplo, there him been n<> ?jut come from the various movements tba have been made in Anderson County li establish factories hitherto. Wbatcve has tended to impede these movements it is not worth while to inquire now The fact remains thal nothing has hcei done to put Anderson in tho line of de Veloptnent in thia direction, and wliil other communities aro moving onward ii tiie mureil of progress, luanufucturinj enterprises aro at a discount with th capitalists of Anderso n. Our Southeri towns and cities must look to manufac turing more than ever beforo, to i nereus their population, enlarge their facilitie for business, and add to their wealth ric importance. Sumter, Rock Hill, Fioi ence, Chester, Newberry, Columbia Charleston, Orangoburg, Spartachurg an Greenville, and other towns and ciltei are taking hold of manufacturing will an activity and energy that will nccorn pliah much towards developing ever material interest. Greenville, as yoi have rightly said, is not dependent upo tho fluctuation and uncertainties of ngri cultural industry, hut is constantl widening its scope of manufactures, nu in a few years it is no idle fancy to pre did that almost every species of manu factoring will be represented in till community. It is a solid assurance tbs the futuro of Greenville will be brigh and prosperous. Cotton factories ar only a beginning, for these create a di mand for others, as the history of thi city will attest. In a community lik Anderson, it is easier to begin with cot ton machinery, for the people arc mor familiar with this class of manufacturing and feel moro confidence in its ability t make good returns upon the capital in vested. Hut diversified mnnufaclure are equally important as diversified agri culture, and once there is a start made t invest surplus capital in machinery, th desire grows upon men to put their earn inga into whatever promises to augraon the prosperity of* their own cuni in uni tie; What is called "public spirit" animate tho population, and men of large an small capital alike co-operate in this de veiepmcnt. Anderson has abundant means to en ter upon such enterprises. The deposit in your bank show that, from lime t time, there is a large amount of capita unemployed in your community. I there any conclusive reason against th early consummation of a project for th establishment of at least one cotton fae tory in your thriving city? Rock Hill Sumter and Orangcbtirg, have cottoi factories propelled by steam power, am they are successful beyond question. Ii the great manufacturing centres of th North, even where water power is pion ti ful, ?team is used to a large extent. I is desirable to develop the fine watei powers in Anderson County, and thi will be dons when the city of Anderaoi aeta the example of investing ita capita In the pioneer enterprise, which wil surely awaken the energies of all wi th ii reach. I beg pardon of the good people o Anderson for thia intrusion, which is in tended only as an encouragement to tho? who agree with your editorial. EX-ANDKIISONIAN.

CINCINNATI, February ll.-The city in in consternation on account of the great risc in the Ohio Uiver and what is expected to come. Tho water had reached sixty-one feet two and a half inches nt h a ff-past o'clock this after I noon ?md was rising at Ibu rate of two inches per hour. Desperate efforts aro ? being made to save the merchandise in thc lower part of the city. Advice? from nb .vc indicn'e that a heavy ri-e is still coming. Prominent business men herc, who aro not sensational, say to-night that tho damage from the present overflow of tho ohio Uiver in Cincinnati, Newport and Covington will amount to millions of dollar?. Th? water at 7 o'clock this evening was 61 feel S inches high and ri-.ing marly two inclu s hourly. Thou sands of jici.pl.? crowd al! tho bridges watching lb? floods. A rise of three feet more is expected. All tho transfer wag ons in 'he city are employed in removing goods from danger. The Suspension bridge is lined with wagons taking leif tobacco over to Covington. 'Ibo natcr through which they pass in going to the suspension ?ridge is over their axles. Passengers between Covington and Cin cinnati arc compelled to cross the water at the Cincinnati approach to the sus pension bridge in boats or vehicles. At tho present rato of rise passage to the bridge by vehicles will soon be impossi ble. Steam ferry and street railroad communication between hero and the Kentucky aide of thc river is cut off entirely. Thu Cincinnati appro-c i to the New port bridge was free al S o'clock, but in dangor. In Newport the military barracks are flooded and nearly two square miles of the city is under water. People have been laking coal and pro visions in boats all day to tho inhabi tants und delivering through the second and third story windows. All the houses and factories along tho entire river front al Covington are flooded and the water is in tho second story of some of them. Nearly ten miles ol river front in Cincinnati is more or less under water. The Hood estends front Ninth strcci to to Second street, and nu Pearl street the cellars are filling. Along the landing the flood is up to the second and (hird stories of many buildings. Thc roof of a big wharf boat viewed from the Suspen sion bridge looks nearly as high as the roofs of five story houses on the public landing. All railway freight and nearly all express business west and north has been stopped. The Ohio and Mississippi Railway transfers passengers by omni bus four miles dowu the river and thence by steamer makes connection with Aurora, 1ml. The Cincinnati, In dinapolis, St. Louis and Chicago uses the Cincinnati, Hnmilton and Dayton lines to reach its own line in Indiana. The Cincinnati, Washington atid Balti more trains go out from the Cincinnati, Hamilton nod Dayton depot. If the present rate of rise continues all these lines will have to transfer nt Cummins ville tomorrow morning. The Little .Miami division of the Pittsburg, Cincin nati and St. Louis and nil roads south ol the river remain intact and are likely tc continuo to. At West Knd tho people are trying tc save the cattle from the inundated pens The difficulty is very great as boats have to bc employed and the cattle must be lcd out one by one. They often gel frightened, break away and go back inte their pens. All tho Mill Valley fm miles north from the Ohio is a broad sea In the city, from Pearl street down lt the river front, the greatest activity ant excitement prevails. Tho tire depart merit is pumping out the Pearl stree collara to enable the merchants to savi their goodii.

On Walnut strrr-.r up ;< Fourth entire sidewalks are covered will packages of sugar and groceries whicl nave been hastily removed from tho eel lars, and the work of removal continue to-uigbt as fast as meneau accomplish, it The damage to goods in cellars ou Pear street is much feared. The stock yards are flooded and stool trains cannot move in any direction All business will be suspended until al ter this danger is past. At uncut 8.30 j m. it was expected every minute thu tho gas lights would be extinguisher; Only a few inches more of rise will bric about this result. The belief is not that the rise will not stop under 63 foe which would bo the highest on record. At 9 o'clock the gas works were But merged, and there is only enough gos t last through tho night. The pressura i so weak that tho gas will not burn no1 in many places. The water supply als is in danger, only one ongine at th pumping works being abie to work. Il capacity at the last trial waa 10,000,00 gallons per day, while tho daily cot sumption is 16,000,000. It will requit a rise of four feet more to disable th ono engine. The coal fleets are believed to be safi The weather ia still warm and the sno is melting. Occasionally there is light rain. Advices from above indical that the rise will continuo at least twei ty-four hours. The Commercial Gazette specials report three inches of rain i Parkersburg and the river rising.

Nov.c>it Del'.1.?'m? lu Mnniifacturiiii; COLUMBIA, February 7.-At the inert- | ing of the board of directors of the Teni tuntiary to night, Mr. II. Frank Moul ton, of Laconia, New Hampshire, sub mitted a proposition for tito hire of convicts, which be explained in person bcibie the board. Mr. Moulton proposed ' lo hire from tito board, for the purpOHO nf operating it hoiscry mill, thc labor of tilly live convicts- thir'y-five women, fifteen boya and live men-the number to bo increased at a later date ti, ono hundred in the same proportion. Ho offered, therefore, the hame rate? now paid by Mr. A. C. Di bett for the bands employed in his shoe manufactory-'17 cents a day for women and boys and 60 cents for men. He proposed to occupy Mich part of lin- large brick building erected by the Penitentiary authorities within the walls of Inc institution as is not now uied by Dr. Dibcrt, which is about one-half, and in addition an Ad joining building as a dye house. The proposition was considered by the board for some time and action was finally deferred until to morrow. It is certain, however, that the oller with pos sible immaterial changes wid be then accepted by the board, and il may, there fore, be considered as sure that the mill will be started. There are now a au til - cient number of women and boys under eighteen to lill the requirement* of the first contract. Mr. Moulton, when the contract is completed, will order the fine machinery required for thu business, and hopes to begin work by May J. The capital em ployed at first will be from 130,000 to $50,000. The machinery alone will cost $20,000. He will manufacture of cotton the finest quality of ladies' and misses' hose und gentlemen's half hose to the - 0011111 ut first of ono hundred und twenty-five dozen a day. If he finds bis enterprise successful and can procure more hands, ho will hire the labor of all the. women and boys in the institution, ami increase his daily outturn of hoisery to three or four hundred dozen. Tho power to be used is the water power from the existing canal now operating the Dibert Shoe Factory, and there will be sufficient ol this for present require ments At first il is proposed to buy the yarns used and to knit, color and finish Ihe goods in thu mill ; but, if the enterprise be successful, which is undoubted, cotton and woollen cards will be pul in and tho mill will work up the raw material for itself, muking both woollen and cotton hosiery. It is proposed lo organize a company for operating the mil!, but the money is ready and will be furnished by Mr. Moulton and one or two associates. Mr. Moulton will bc manager and super vise the whole business personally. Some fifteen skilled help will be brought from thu North to instruct the operatives, mid these will be permanent auditions to ihe population of the city. Mr. Moulton is a young and energetic man, and his family nre possessed of abundant means. He hus boen part owner and sole manager of the (.lilford Hosiery Company, of Lacouia, for fifteen years, with success. His father is presi dent of the Laconia Bunk and chief pro prietor of extensive car shops in that town. Mr. Mott I ton's standing nt home is shown by the fact that, although he is a staunch Democrat, ho received last fall tho Republican as well as the Demo cratic nomination for thc Legislature and was unanimously elected the member from Laconia. He has spent several winters in Columbia for his health, and lias been impressed by the superior advantages of Southern manufactures and especially with Columbia's Gue posi tion. He will, when the contract is closed, give up his Northern home, buy a house here and become an adopted son of South Carolina. The letter of "J. C. II." from Colum bia, in the ?Wira and Courier several weeks ago, in relation to Mr. Moulton's prospecting herc, v.as copied in the Hus ton Commercial Bulletin, and brought inquiry as to the State's manufacturing Advantages, and Mr. Moulton has like wise had a number of oilers of water power from different sections of South Carolinu in consequence of the publica tion. Columbia now has the only important shoo factory south of Richmond, and will soon have the only hosiery mill in the South. The Confederate Contingent. NKW YORK, February 9.-Gen. Fitz hugh Lee and staff, in full uniform, es corted by the board of officers of the Thirteenth Regiment of Brooklyn, also in full uniform, attended the performance of "The Queen's Lace Handkerchief" at the Casino last night. The interior of the theatre was handsomely decorated with flsgs, the State flag of Virginia forming the conspicuous centre over the box occupied hy the Southern soldiers. Accompanying Gen. Lee waa Capt, F. Vf. Dawson, formerly of his stan, but now the editor of the Charleston New? and Courier. After the performance din ner was served at the New York Hotel. A banquet will ho tendered to the visi tors at the Mansion House, Brooklyn, to-night. THE REVIEW OF TUE BROOKLYN TROOIU The New York Herald gives the fol lowing account of the review of the Brooklyn soldiers by Gen. Lee : The Thirteenth regiment was reviewed last evening by Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, of Virginia, accompanied by several officers of his staff and of the Virginia Volun teers. Among thom were Col. Wertem baker, Coi. Anderson, Col. J. Lane Sterne, Major George-Ben Johnstone, medical director of the brigade ; Major R. W. Hunter, Capt T. S. Keller, Capt. F. W. Dawson and Mr. Norman V. Randolph. The officers all wore gray uniforms, the color as worn by the Thirteenth. Gen. Lee wore a general's chapeau and epaulettes and the yellow silk sash of his rank. He also wore the gauntlet gloves that had belonged to Gen. Robert E. Lee and were worn by him ou many celebrated occasions, particularly at Appomattox. On the inside of the cuffs was the name "Robert E. Lee," written in ink by the General himself. ?After his death the gloves were Bent to Gen. Fitzhugh Lee and were worn last night for the first time. The roview waa probably one of the most interesting ever held bv any regi ment of the New York National Guard. When the passage in review came the band played "Carry me back to ole Vir ginia," and when Fitzhugh Lee uncov ered to the flag there was a perfect storm A dress parade followed, during which Gen. Lee made a speech to the men of the Thirteenth. He told them of their meeting at Yorktown and how glad he vas to meet them again. Referring; to old times he said that when the war broke out he waa at the Military Acade my. He had been reared in a different faith from his Northern associates in the army and be had thought that the State of Virginia had the first right to his sword. But when the sun of the Con federacy had gone down behind the hills of Appomattox he had realized that the war was over. He waa now a citi zen of the United Stales, equally inter ested with every other citizen in its glory and greatness and as loyal a citizen as any. Prolonged encoring greeted the Gen oral's remarks. - Maj. A. D.

On Tuesday night last ont ?.f the most horrible murders was perpetrated in Hartwell that it baa ever been cur duty to record, the victim being William Dooley, the Marshal. It was Suleday, and a large assemblage of [.pie wero in town during the dav. Laie in the even ing the Marshal had arrested Whist; n Adam-, and was attempting lo carry him lo the calaboose, when several parties attempted to uniit tiie Marshal in bis oflbrtt, among the number Lindsay II. Adams, who, during the altercation, received a blow over tho head 'Vom the Marshal. Soon after dark one of the parties who had ?ngiuiei! in the a nair was carried before the Hoard of Cominis shiners and lined, hut Lindsay Adams ivas nol arrested. Thc trial was ? lided about eight o'clock at night. Marshal Dooley remained about the square until about nine o'clock, his attention was at tracted to thc Merrin'.' [now Allen) bar room, and in company with II. N. Ayers he walked over lhere from Mr. Gully's confectionery ?tore. Tho f*r?>nt door of the barroom was (dosed, and they went around to the door iii the rear end and entered. Soon alter entering they wt ru standing T. ?th their backs to th? fire, looking on at some parties engaged in a friendly scuffle. Suddenly a pistol was fired iii thc door they bad entered, and Marshal Dooley fell, only exclaiming: "itOVfl, HEM' MK - i AM Kll.l.i:i?!" And instantly died. The body was re moved by direction of Coroner Land t?> Dr. Mathews' ollL-c in the court house, where an inquest was held oh Wednesday morning, with a verdict a* given below. A careful examination of the wound was made by Dr. Mathews, assisted LV Dr?. Kbcrhart, 1'age and Ayers, ami tho hall taken from the body. Tho follovrii. ; path of thc ball wi'! nive our readers un idea of" the deadly character of its terrible work : The ball struck thc tight arm and I parsed through tho under fleshy part entering the right side, cutting the ninth rib entirely in two, ranging upward and passing through the lower lobe of the right lung, passing lo the spinal column, striking I hs lower portion of one vc: to bra and upper portion of the other, cut ting tht: spinal cord, passing in the rear uno below thc heart, culling the upper portion of thc lower lobe of the loft lung, pysning on and culling the third iib of left side, glancing and deflecting back ward and upward and resting in the axila (armpit). Immediately after thc inquest was held the Coroner issued a warrant for the arrest of Lindsay H. Adams and Moses M. Rinker. They were accordingly brought bofore Justices H. J. (JOSH and Jas. F. White oil Thursday Inst, and after an exhaustive trial were commit ted tn jail to await Irial for the murder. Marshal Dooley had been holding the otlice for about six months, and was a faithful, upright officer, and his fiendish murder has filled the entire community with eadncss, I!?.' leaves a -rife and sev eral children, who have the profound sympathy of our entire community ; and while we sympathize with the bereaved widow and orphans, let tis hope that the blood of the victim, like that of Abel, may continue to cry from the ground until merited punishment shall overtake tho perpetrator of such a high handed crime. The jury of inquest rendered the fid lowing verdict : We, the juror?, upon oath say that'we believe (from all the testimony that has been introduced before na) that William Dooley was murdered on the Otb day of February instant at about o'clock p. m., in the barroom of Henry C. Allen in the town of Hartwell in said county, and that the murder was committed by Lind say H. Adams aud Minis Kucker, one of whom did the shooting and the other accessory thereto, and the weapon used was a pistol of :i3 calibre. Upholding the I,nw. In his charge to the grand jury ol Abbeville County Judge Wallace said : "Lynching is an act of violence out uide the limits of tbs law. Wo live un der a government of law. For centuries thera has boen going on a struggle to eliminate the human will from govern mental functions. That government is not a good government where human will is not elimnntcd. In free govern ments the human will must not control passion and prejudice. In free govern ments we adiniuister judgment uninflu enced aud uncontrolled by passion. This human will is not eliminated when the crowd undertakes to enforce the law. Thia is the only time I have ever charged a grand jury upon the subject of lynch ing-the Judge is no prosecuting olricer. I sit here to try a case upon the facts os presented^in the regular way. It does become me, however, to uphold the law, and every good citizen must uphold and enforce it. Your personal and property righi* are in danger when the laws are improperly executed. No crowd of men should undertake to execute the laws, when swayed by passion and prejudice. Upon all unascertained statements of facta the vigor of tho law must be main tained, or our rights are in danger. You must support, uphold, and lend vigor to the law, if you would have 'freedom and liberty under well regulated law.' "You are the grand inquest of the County. You are not detectives. You are not to ferret out crime. But when there is a flagrant and open defiance ol law, then it comes within the purview and scope of your duty to bring the per petrators to trial. "In regard to this lynching take such steps as you think pioper. If you find out the parties, present them in youi presentment to the court, with the wit nesses to prove the facts. "I will repeat what I have said : It it the duty of every good citizen to uphold, support, and lend vigor to the law. Nc cause can ever arise which this Court it not competent to try." The Western Floods. The flood in the Monongahela Rivei reached 28 feet Thursday morning al Pittsburg and then began to recede Owing to the cold weather, which shul off'thu small streams, the water did not get aa high as was anticipated by several feet. The damage there is almost wholly from inundation, but the loan from that is considerable. All the milh along both rivers are submerged and operations are suspended. Many store* in the lower portions of the two cities are under water, and hundreds of families on the .south side and in Allegheny have been compelled to leave homo until thf flood subsides. Dispatches from towns along the Mo nongahela report great damage from the floods. Th? water at all points is sub siding and no more danger is appre hended.
