Sboxtland and Grahamstown Flooded-

Adwyt*rcs in the Streets.

Particulars of Damage

GHAHAMSTOWN. (Prom our Own Correspondent.) This day. THE STREETS FLOODED.

Last "/light was the highest tide since the place 'ffas settled, and many principle busi ness places at Grahamstown had from six to eighteen inches of water in them. A furious g"Ae was blowing, which drove the tide in 'And backed up the flood waters, which was coming down the creeks in large volumes. The sea began to rise in the streets of Grahamstown about seven o'clock, and at Shortland afterwards. The floor of the Advertiser office was five, inches under water. Albert - street as lite a sea, the strong wip.d dashing the water into waves. Every now and then groups of men could be seen struggling about in the water with ti ie ir trowsers up over their knees. DUCKTtfG OVERHEAD.

There was ?_ a f e ty in keeping the crown of the road, w e re the water was not quite knee deep, but, ft W as difficult to cross, and more than o /fle unforiunate came to grief in the w»te.;r channels. One woman fell in over the footpath in Albert-street, and was soused over the head before she was dragged out. During the flood lights appeared in the windows of shops and warehouses where on Sunday night all is wont to be in darkness. All cellars were of course filled up, and in several of the shops considerable damage was done to goods standing on the floor. THE CHIEF LOSERS.

Mr. Marshall, draper, was among the greatest losers, his roll of goods standing on the floor being wet from the bottom for twelve to eightebn inches. Osborne Bros, had about eighteen inches of water, aid liad a quantity of maize destroyed. The water was also a considnrable depth in the National Bank. Mennie and Deys, the Exchange Building, the Pacific, Hotel, McCaul's ironmonger, and several others. A few hats were damaged in Cos grave's Cash Palace, but only trifling. Nearly the whole road along the beach between Grahamstown and Shortland has been washed away, and many residents wire unable to get into their homes, after leaving church till the waters abated. The gardens have been completely destroyed in this locality and fences washed down. A CONGREGATION IN A DILEMMA. At Grahamstown the Wesleyan Church •people were astonished at the close of the service to find they could not get away from the church door. The sea had destroyed the fencing, and was surging round the building. Most of the congregation returned into church, and remained for the prayer meeting, ■while the water fell. The whole of the fencing of the Wesleyan Church is destrovod, and the footpath, in front, is knocked to pieces. OTHER DAMAGE. Large pieces of timber and boats were thrown on to the middle of Brown-at-eet. A considerable portion of Holdship's wharf has been carried away. There sre two large breaches in the Tararu wharf—one of three hundred feet in length. Most exten sive damage was also done to Grahamstown wharf. At one time the tide was at least two feet over the top. A large breach was made in the wharf. A shed erected at the end Of the wharf for the reception of engines and carriages of the Tararu tramway, is a complete wreck. The whole of one side has fallen in, and the roof has tumbled after it, the foundation having been snapped away by the tide. Two engines fell down with the flood into the mud, but do not appear to be injured. Two tons of flour belonging to Pntleine and Smith, a quantity of maize, and other things are damaged. The beach road to Tararu has suffered considerably. There is is a breach in the sea wall in the neighbourhood of the powder magazine and other sections near Grahamstown have given ■way. SKIPPING. In regard to shipping the Prince Alfred barque rode out. The gale at the goods wharf without sustaining any injury. The three masted schooner 'Policeman.' which had been moored off the wharf, commenced to drag her anchors before six o'clock, but was brought up. The small craft, in many in stances drifted, and two were sunk near €rahamßtown wharf. The harbour boat had its stern broken out. Marshall's damage is a»id to be about £500. The printers in the Advertiser had to get "boxes to stand on at their frames, but no ■damage was done either to type or ma chinery. Letters in the pillar-box at the Exchange were floating about and damaged.

LATEST SOUTHERN TELEGRAMS.

WELLINGTON,

(From our own Correspondent.) This day. Glover the Actor Sent to Gaol- Robert Glover, husband of Jessie Ray mond, actress, and an Auckland girl, was sentenced to ,six months' imprisonment on Saturday morning, for stealing a pair of blankets and some children's nnderclothing. He is rather an idle and dissolute vagabond, and addicted to petty larceny, as the ser geant of police shewed that he had served two short sentences in Otago for similar offences.

Money Rewards to Police. It appears the Wellington and Victorian police have been at loggerheads as* to the payment of some money reward for the apprehension of Drummond, a bank ahsconder, from Victoria. A recent Melbourne Argus having given an epitome of the case, the New Zealand Times publishes the whole correspondence, and the Wellington police have decidely the best of the arguments, one of Inspectors Atchison's letters being particularly hot upon the doings of the "Victorian detectives office. He shows that this is the second occasion upon which the Victorian office has found a pretext for not paying the amounts offered for the apprehension of certain criminals The affair is almost certain to attract a good deal of public attention, as affecting inter-colonial relations in furthering the ends of justice. Tightness of Money.

Without being able to assign any particu lar and Bpecial reason for the fact, I can say it is true that money is becoming tighter than heretofore ; that business men complain of being unable to get it in as it is wanted, and being compelled to often seek for accom modation.

A REMARKABLE PROPHECY FUL FILLED.

In recording the execution ot a murderer named Beighley, at Greensburg) Westmore land county, Pennsylvania, on the 20th Jan., the flew York Herald says :—" Singular, yet it is true, that though thereihave been at least a quarter of a hundraj murders committed in Westmoreland ce^nty since the year 1830, yet not one of the perpetrators has suffered the extreme penalty; In this connection it may not prove remiss to mention a prophecy, singular^ tin its character and remarkable in iti fulfil ment, made on the scaffold on the occasion of the last execution in the county. This was Joseph Evans, who was tridd, con victed, and executed for the murder <f John Cissler, by striking him over the heid with a shovel. This occurred on the last day of December, in the year 1829. Evaiß was tried at the February term, 1830, |>f the court of«Oyer and Terminer, and th^ jury, after being out one hour, returned a verdict of murder in the first degree. It appears Evans, Chissler, and two other men Darned Lansibiger and Ball, were all fellow labourers on the canal, and occupied the same shinty. A quarrel arose, and on i the trial) the witnesses Ball and Linsibiger swore jthat Evans Btruck Cissler with a shovel, froni the effect of which blow he died. An extra ordinary part of the trial was the charge of the judge. He explained the law, and tom mented upon the testimony in such a mainer that it was impossible for the jury t|do otherwise than render a verdict of guity, unless they had disobeyed the virtual instruc tions of the coiart. The governor designated Tuesday, the 10th of April, as the day ujpn which Evans should be executed. V Upon the margin of another world, aid with all the horrors of death before him he asseverated that the testimony of Ball a^d Lansibiger was false, and that the killing of Cissler was accidental. He admitted that tip had lived a wicked life, and advised all preji sent to refrain from gambling, profanity, and| intemperance, and ascribed his premature and| ignominious death to his addiction to these! vices. He then, in the most solemn manner, stated that, as he was to be hung for a crime which he had never committed, no other per sons would be executed iWWestmoreland county for a period of 40 years; and further more, that several witnesses - naming them —that had aworn falsely against him could not die a natural death, as the Almighty knew of their siD, and would not let them die naturally. Singular as it may appear, there has not been an execution in the county since that of Evans, over 44 years ago ; and, what is still the more singular, of the wit nesses be mentioned, one was drowned, 'one was kicked by a horse, and, from the injuries received, died ; one waß hung in Ohio, for horse stealing, by a mob ; one was struck by lightning and killed ; and the last one was killed on the old postage road, standing on or near a water tank, when a train of cars rolled him over ar.l lef:, the lifeless remains of the witness a round mass of human[£Leah.

Those arrested and tried f< r murder have either been sentenced to various periods m the penitentiary or have escaped the horrors of the gibbet by swallowing poison on the near approach of the fatal day. ■ Many of the good people of Westmoreland, honest, industrious farmers, remember the last words of Evans on the scaffold, and wonder at'the reason of the verification of the wicked man's prophecy.
