except in 1851. Ten days, ago the
w?.ter reached the dangej point,
and since tlierr-ifc ira's been iiteadil y
rising at the rate, of from four to
fourteen inches daily ,and the worst
to come. Thousands of acres are
covered with water, and hundreds
of families are driven from their
homer? at a minute's notice. The
loss to farmers is incalculable, as
the district flooded comprisese the
valley. On the embankment of the
river hundreds of cattle, horses and
hogs are gathered without feed.
while across on the opposite bluff
can be seen hundreds ot men,
women and children, desolate, for
lo.'n and despairing. Many are
destitute and suffering for food.
Communicatian with this side is
entirely cut on, every roan ieing
covered with water. The factories
and warehouses along the river are
seriously embarassed, and large
buildings are gradually ben.g
undermined bv the rushing waters.

that wood-cutters in Cape Colony

lunar influence in Cape Colony is
the rapid spoiling mt meats and
other provisions when exposed to

to the fact thai the light serves as a
