A Benefit. The recent high water was certainly a benefit to the owners of the mill ruce. The channel of the river opposite the university practical ly made a complete change. Where the short turn was mado and the wa ter thrown against the wall of the mill pond, a bar hits been thrown across, audoniya few feet of space remain through which llm water can now pass, and this will undoubtedly be filled up onn. Tho water lias cut a new channel, going straight through, and as tho channel Is now straight it will undoubtedly remain at it Is, and in time tho old channel near the mill pond will be filled up.
