The old St. Mar’o river, during the greater part of the year, as calm and peaceful as could be desired, can be about as mean as such a stream could well be. Just at present it is raging ‘ all over the bottom lands, much to the inconvenience of many. Just what causes it has not been figured out, as the rains have not been unusually heavy, the general opinion being that the heavy frosts have much to do with the over-supply of water now. o — BIERSDORFER AT WAYNE.
