Two mill-Jams, two Iron bridges, nnd a Hail- i road bridgogone. The r.iin (in I thaw up to Friday night, filled every •troiiiit and rivulet to overflowing, and ! fill il»»• 11»»< iU way into iho eighteen-mile creek, caused 1111 unusual rise, which, breaking up thu ire in many places, eighteen to twenty Inches thick, and melting oatne down with a rush The Ira Tompkins mill-dam, met thstofWm Collins stood tii > test and pressure, hut the one ' next below, <}eo II- Van Ostrands's clothing i works dnm failed to resist the immense wnght ; »n<l went out with a roar. About eighty rod-* below, was the double suan iron bridge; strik- ; 'ng tills with full fores it was swept away like a nob web. and as the ice and debris ru>*Ued on, Hm I power increased in force and velocity, as the ! Van Horn clothing mill-dam had been WMShed j out somo >ears since, and withal a heavy fall• i there was no resistance) until it struck Arrow- ' smith and Cor win's mill-dam. This dain wan rebuilt three year#ago, and was supposed to be impregnable. It dues not take a very grea stretch of tho imaginations comprehend this fact; that tho vast amount of iee, nnd the accu mulation of water from the dain above, togeth. or with thn thousand rivulets pouring in from both si leu of the creek, created a force and pow* j er that could not lie resisted. After Ailing up the datu until the writer came np to the sawmill floor; a crash oamu that started people in their beda—a few minutes later another crash Just below the mill wits another double span t iron nridge that went out with a mass of timber aid ice from the dam aliove, and rushing on about forty rods further, struck the Railroad bridge with such force at to take all the ahnt- 1 inents away at a stroke,and with them the center of the bridge. There are two upnns of the bridge left on each bank, but twisted and out «»f shape. Before the rails parted.it drew the; track several inches for about thirty rods. Tlii* bridge wan seventy-five feet above the crerk- i lied. From the H H. bridge north la deep water to the lake, and very abrupt angles in the channel, vet with these advantages and the un- 1 usual thickness of the ice, about twenty inche** j was broken up and thrown into plica about one mile down tho creek ; Waving aWout one hundred rods of ice unbroken; It had apent its force and power; this, and oaly this, aaved the ; swt ng bridge at Olcott, As it was, the vast voli time of water and ice damaged the bridge or 1 piling and east abutment, but at this writing I cannot tell to what extent. Theye is yet great j danger to our bridge. There is that vast body 1 of ice above it, an i the future can only be a waited with anxiety. At the Arrowsmith k < Cor win mill, had it not been for a solid stone 1 pier at the upper end of the new building and Doom in which are three large Ttirine water* wheels, for the new pulp mill, without doaht would have been carried away. The siding on ' ; the mill iseonskterahly broken by the ice.
