Jan. 1S33. 23" Rise of The Water Courses. Tho remarkable spell of wet weather which lias visited us for nearly the whole of the month of May, has had the eftVct of rais ing the Water courses in all quarters o the Union. The lrcshct has been very high and destructive in the Hudson, the Susquehanna, the Connecticut, and other rivers of the North. And in our own State, the rains, particularly those whic fell on Thursday and Friday week have swollen our rivers, so as to impede their navigation delay the communication of our roads drown the corn fields in our low lands, and do great damage to the wheat on the low grounds of the James, Appomattox, Pamunkey, and Mattapony. The two last particularly have risen to a height unequalled since 1814. The corn may partially recover in the bottoms, from the effects of the inunda tion but the wheat in many fields is irr remediably destroyed. The prospects of the harvest, which were so fine some weeks since, have been seriously blighted not only by the fresh on the margins of 300 bar'ls sup'r Cut Herrings j 100 : : Mackerel, 30,000 lbs Baconfor sale by EVANS 8?
