urday blew the water up stream, submerging the wharves, and as the wind subsided, the rise speedily proved that the fall of rain above was fully equal to that in our own vicinity. On Sunday morning the Rappahannock was covered with logs, rails, and driftwood of all descriptions, and by noon it was within three feet of the great fresh in the river on the 10th of April last; that having been the greatest within the memory of "the oldest inhabitant," and two inches higher than the flood of 1814. One span of Chatham bridge gave way, about 10 o'clock, owing to the heavy body of driftwood against the pier which supported it; but as nearly every stick of timber was saved, the bridge can be speedily repaired, and our communication with Stafford reopened. Indeed, persons crossed after the span gave way, as it only sunk, still retaining its connection with either side. The water rose within three feet of the flooring of the bridge. Mr. Scott's loss will not be over $150 or $200.
