* Yoa are riot the only people who experienced the force of the late floods. , Here thev have done considerable damage. A dam which was built across the Duns tan Creek, for the purpose of raising flushing water, has been entirely j.veptaway. All the head races belonging to the three water: races have suffered eacli considerable damage.
I regret to hear- that a private party (the I if ally) had a dam swept away, and I their reservoir; injured." ' The rain, which came down freely for several days of the previous .week, exhausted itself "on Sun lay, the 2nd inst. in a continuous-down- -. pour. The weather, since then seems to be debating within itself whether it had better return to rain or to sunshine. I hope it will decide-in favor of the latter, in time to smile on your Mount Ida Sports, as some of my townsmen intend patronising them The crops here are very for war J, and also healthy. —A.8.0
