from Mr. Win. F lloltos, at Uowerd'i livery
table, on Q street, otar Seventh, that at
about 5 o'clock, p. m , as tbt mall aUge mi an
proachlng Tennallytown from Roekvllle, It wai
washed off of tho pike by a near c arrant of
water produced by the reoant eoptoaa ralm, and

dence of Mri. Holt, about one mile this alda of
RoekvlUe, ware drowned. Tba point where the
tage npiet U about on mil and a half north of
Tennallytown, where the Fair Branch erossea
the turnpike.
A two hone ambulance crossed the branoh
just ahead of th stage, and th stage-driver,
Mr. Oeorg Fulton, deemed, therefor, that
there wai no danger. Mr. Christian Keefer, of
Rockrllle, wu a paaienger In the ooaeh at th
Urn It waa upset, but be manigtd to extricate
himself, and aave Ms llf. Mr. Keefer and th
driver having narrowly escaped with their Hres,
commenced to search for the ladles, but at th
end of an hour they eoutd not be found. Th
horses war all gotten out, on of which, th
lead hone, waa washed away about fifty yards,
and will probably die of his Injuries. Th atag

pletely wrecked on ft hoge log, and the United
States mails could not b seen anywhere. Mr.
Keefer mounted on of th bones and rode to
the city, when Mr. Howard sent out a span of
horses and vehicle.
At about 11 o'clock, p. m , a rider returned to

that tbt bodies of the two ladles named aboT
war recovered and aent to their friends. Th
wearing apparel had been torn and washed cn

curred. There had gathered around the soen
of th wreck four or Art hundred persons, who
treated an lntenso exoltement, and every endea
vor waa being mad to recover the body of th
lady yet in the water.
Th rain throughout nearly the whole of Mont
gomery country, yesterday and the night pre
vious, washeavler than almost anywhere else,
and the destruction to th crops, bridges and
fences Is truly disheartening. In fact, many of
th farmers are nearly distracted by their loss In
crops, Ao.
