The river at this place has been higher for the last few days, than it has ever been known to rise since the first settlement of the country. The water in the ware-house of Messrs. Jones and Griffin was, on Thursday last about four or five feet deep. It contain ed a largo amount of cotton; and although great oxer- .tions were used to get the bales removed iuto a dry situation, it is believed that very considerable damage has been done. . One of our citizens, Mr. Popaein who bos resided < for ytan on the low ground near the river, but where tho water never camf to disturb him before, bos found - it nccessarv to seek torn time, a more elevated rest- dence. Tne river is now tailing. Fourmen passed down the river on Thursday last, on n raft of posts. The posts were intended for this place but when the raft got into tho current, it kept its on ■ ‘ i of the tailors ic raft got ward course, in spite of all tho exertions fo bring it to shore.—A fruitless attempt was made to get to them with a canoe; but likethe renowned John Gilpin, of racing memory there was no such thing as overtaking them. A report has reached town, that two of tbcib got safe to shore about ten miles. below this, leaving the other two still upon the raft. Those who got to shore Informed their fellows, as they made their way down stream, that they (who had escaped) would relinquish their claim to the ports. It Is probable that these two raft-men, whose pro vision consisted of a loaf of bread and a bottle ofwtiis- Irey, have taken their posts to the Mobile market, lea* they should be carried further by means of gull stream: If so, they will .. . - r.—--I perhaps sail round to ew Yorlc—or otherwise to Liverpool.—But jesting Sir**** mmm hotel The subscriber having taken the above Establishment, recently occupied by R.
