While the river has reached 34 to j I'.j feet on several occasslons during the period It seems as If but little damage was done except at the times mentioned and It seems as the! 10,-h was comparatively binall in j 1868. The water reached its record hreak- j Ing point this time and went two in ches above the high point of twenty years ago The rapid rise of the river this time caused greater damage In j the way of washouts as the onrush of the water was so rapid as to tear up streets and do other damage of simi lar nature throughout the entire town.

Scott, general man ager of the Georgia railroad, said this morning that the damage sustained by flood at the Union depot was too insignificant to estimate. ' There was of rourse," he said, "a little damage from mud in the waiting rooms, but w e opend them all up this morning and the furniture that was ruined will be Immediately replaced. The flooring tinder the train shed was simply lifted on top of the waters, but held to Us moorings and settled back down after the flood subsided. We have a large force of hauds at work and expect to ha. the depot opeu again in a day or so.” There were no wash-outs any where on the line of the Georgia, said Mr. Scott, and the local damage, altogeth er, was remarkably light.
