The Freshet. --The river, though very high yesterday, did not rise within three feet of its greatest height in 1847. Communication was out off between Mayo's bridge and Vauxhall Island, and the latter could only be reached by boats. Haxall, Crenshaw & Co's flour mill, and the Manchester cotton and flour mills, were compelled to suspend work, owing to the flood. The stone embankment above the Danville depot was entirely submerged, and the water was nearly on a level with the stone embankment built to protect the lower end of Mayo's new warehouse; while a connection was formed between the Dock and river, some distance further down, on the line of 11th street. All the island and low ground below Rocketts, (as, indeed, a great part of that section of the city,) were covered with water. The companion to the "Virginia Dare," now building on the South side of the river, was introduced to her "natural element" before her builders would be willing to send her forth to "glide the water

t present occupied by the State, it was giving aid and comfort to the enemy, and was treason. He felt it to be his duty to remand the prisoner, as one of the guardians of the public safety and peace. The prisoner solicited his release on the grounds of ignorance of the meaning of the words Black Republican, &c. He was very drunk when he used them. He could not read — was born and brought up near Ellicott's Mills, in Maryland--was a good citizen, and worked prior to his arrest for Haxall, Crenshaw & Co. The plea of the prisoner did not avail. He was sent down as an enemy of the public peace. A man calling himself Wm. H. Frear, was also arraigned, charged with being a person of suspicious character--one having feelings and sympathies with the North. Mr. John W. Davies testified that he had heard Frear use words in conversation calculated to produce that impression on his mind. He had vaunted the superiority in numbers and efficiency of Northern troops, and said that if Lincoln

the foe. It would not consent like that prudent captain in the fable, to bid the gallant troops of the Confederacy go and fight. It preferred to say, come and do battle with us. It longed to be in the very midst of events, in the bosom of the army. It has done wisely; it has behaved gallantly; Virginia welcomes it with outstretched arms and swelling hearts. President Davis is here, worn with labor, but nerved to the high duties of his responsible position. The spacious mansion of Mr. Crenshaw, on Leigh and Thirteenth sts, the one built by Dr. Brockenbrough, has been taken for his residence. That is to be the White House of the South. There will his gifted lady, not less talented and intellectual than himself, dispense the refined hospitalities which befit the residence of the chief man and loftiest statesman of all the South. Richmond may felicitate herself upon the acquisition she has made, in the families of the President and Cabinet, to her social and fashionable circles
