The latter bridge lodged on so me flats, 150 rods below, but the Iron bridge went crashing under the South streetbridge, catching on ihe lower side, and is still hanging there. It, bowmr, damaged this bridge so much in passing that travel has been interdicted across it.THE MATERIAL DESTRUCTION. _ ________„___jtained—The FearfulWrecks of the Fated Hamleta-Mllls, Factories, Dwellings, Bridges and Bams Borne Like Feathers Upon the Seeshinar Waters-Trees Uprooted and Bocks Torn From Their Bases — Household Goods, Animals andHuman Beings Mingled in the Chaos of nni^{a.FUtim»trK of the Losses and Damage, Etc.It is impossible at this period to give any-thing like a complete estimate of the merely pecuniary damage resulting from the great disaster. Aside from the actual losses in buildings, machinery, dams, bridges and other property swept away, there is the entirely inestimable ruin wrought to roads, streets and farming lands, which latter have been in many cases nearly if not quite ruined by the vast accumulations of sand, gravel-stones and debris of every description piled upon them, in some instances to the depth of several feet. A general estimate gives the main losses as follows: Williamsburg, W. H. Adams’s flouring mill, swept away, $10,000; H. L. James’s mill, damaged and left without water-power, $20, houses, barns etc., gone, $40,000. Skinuerviile, William Skinner’s silk factory and twelve tenement bouses destroyed, $130,000; other houses and barns, $13,000. Ilaydenville, Hayden, Gere Co., bra?s works, savings bank building and tenements, swept away, $250,000; Hayden Tobacco Companyls mill, carried off, $7000; Hayden foundry and machinecompany's works (damaged). $5000; other houses and stores, $30,0(H); gas works, $8000. Leeds, Nonotuck Silk Company, dam broken, and several buildings and bouses carried away, $25,000; George P. Warner, button factory destroyed and three tenements, $100,-B00; other bouees, barns, etc., $20,000; Northampton Emery Wheel Company (damage), $2000. Florence, Florence Manufacturing Company, brush factory, damage to stock, $3000; Nonotuck Bilk Company, silk mill partially torn away, and damaged stock, $8000.The Destruction In Williamsburg.The value of the property swept from thd'Williamsburg street is probably about $100,000, the damage to the meadow land and to the water privilege not entering into the estimate. The number thrown out of employment will probably reach 175, while many are destitute. There were some tweuty-five houses carried away from the Adams mill to the depot, besides the Spellman and Adams mills. A small house, owned by O. G. Hill and occupied by Livingston T. Bartlett, was the Ars# Id fill# O. G. Spellman’* dam, button factory and saw-inlll next broke, and Adams’s flouring mill fell quickly after. Then followed Spencer Hannutn’s house, Hiram Hill’s tenement bouse. W. H. Adams’s barn, E. Graves’s carriage shop, Conductor Chandler’s house, George E. Lamb's, Jeremiah Ward’s and Mr. Bard-well’s buildings; E. C. Handtleld’s blacksmith shop, Spencer Bartlett’s, Dr. E. M. Johnson’s and Mr, Reynolds’s houses went next, and then Eibridge G. Kingsley’s house and barn, and two of the Jamestenement houses, an unoccupied tenement owned by Dr. Meekir.s, James Murray's bouse, Dick Cahill’s house and barn, and Thomas Ryan’s bouse. Two bridge* were destroyed, and a third at James’s mill was lifted and afterwards set down iu a brook, one-eighth of a mile from the river. The damage to theTown (i Williamsburg by the loss of bridges, de si ruction of roads and complete ruin of the bestmeadow lands is at present incalculable, but it is such as to s riously cripple the town.Wiliam fckinner’s Mill and Village Annihilated.The village which bears the name of itsfounder, William Skiuner, was one of the prettiest of the group, ami had a bright prospect of increasing prosperity. It was founded about twenty-one years ago by Mr. Skinner, who commenced the manufacture ©t sewing silk. At the time of the disaster, he had a factory three stories high and 120 feet long and thirty feet aide, besides an office and finishing room, and had recently erected a building in which he proposed to manufacture broad silks. He was doing a business of about $300,00# per anuum, and this is completely destroyed, the buildings containing a large stock of raw material and partially finished goods having been entirely swept away. An iron bridge near the James mill was the first to give way; then followed a group of frame buildings which stood near by, and the torrent being thus freed from further obstruction swelled as far as the land would allow, and deluged the broad tract of farming lauds known as the “Kingsley meadows,” turning into ahuge gravelly bed what was but a day or two ago a beautiful valley. The dwelling-house of Mr. Skinner is partially destroyed, the roads actually obliterated, beautiful rows of shade trees uprooted or so much torn by passing wrecks as to render them totally useless. The store just below the depot occupied by Kinney Waite, the bouse of James Forsyth and that of Mr. Smith, the depot master; two boardinghouses managed by Ffed Hillman, Jerome Hidmau’s and Mr, Thomas’s; then Mr. Skinner’s own bouse, next below an unoccupied house belonging to Mr. Skinner,James Coogan’s and Mr.Thomas Skinner’s; then the house of Mr. Hubbard, the book-keeper; one occupied by a Mr. Van Vechten and a two-tenement house occupied by Messrs. Hibbard and Adams. Besides these, there were destroyed the hougesof Tfaaddeus Bartlett, Andrew Brcckeoridge, Mrs. liisley, Christian Kap-linger, Jacob Hill, G. Warner and Captain J. Ilayden, The destruction of this property is a matter of deep regret, as Mr. Skinner was a man who worked hard for more than twenty year# lo reach the proud position which he had attained, and now little remains but bis good name and bis native energy to serve as capital for future operations. The manner in which the flood attacked bis red lenee is singular enough, and it is a matter of wonder that a single board remained to mark the spot where it stood, The water rushed in through the northwest corner and tilled the first floor some three feet deep; then, aided by the undermining of the water in the cellar beneath, it broke down the back parlor floor and made a pit into which a whirlpool of waters found vent and ©ragged with it every article of furniture in the twoparlors, piling a piano on the top. Another strange freak of the flood was played on the house occupied by Mr. llubbard. It stands now a considerable distance below its place, but shaken nearly to pieces, aud the parlor and front hall sliced right out from under the chambers and from beside the other halfof the lower floor, as neatly as one would cut a piece ©f cbeetf. J rThe Loss of Property in Ilaydenville.The principal loss in Haydeuville was thedestruction of the brass works of Messrs. Haydeu, Gere Co., an establishment which originated in 1855, from which time the works have earned a well-deserved reputation. The wholes range of buildings was about GOO feet In length, including a building at the southern extremity, occupied by the ofiice of the firm, the Ilaydenville Savings Bank ami a fine Masonic hall, which had been finished about three years ago. It was a magnificent structure, and finished with the best and choicest materials. All that is left of it now is a fragment of the north end, which was supported by a tall chimney. It is not easy to compute the actual loss sustained in the destruction of the buildings, but it must have been enormous. The loss in patterns is about $60,000; the bank building lost about$55,000; and a rough estimate of the entire loss would I lace it at about $250,000. On the other side of the liver, below the village,stood the factory of the Hayden Tobacco Company, of which Mr. Joel Haydeudwas President; this was entirely demolished,and the loss involved was a brut $75,000. The Hayden Manufacturing Company's gas works were completely destroyed, but the loss cannot be estimated at present with any degree of certainty. The Haydeu foundry and machine shops were damaged to the amount of about $4000.The Devastation in Leeds.The destruction of property in the villagecl Leeds was as great in proportion to its size as to any of the villages previously attacked by the tor-unt. The most extensive loss was sustained by the demolition of George I*. Warner’s button factory, which was built on the site of the old Critehlow mills, burned some years ago. The factory was a handsome ihree-story brick building, with a central tower, and a wooden building, two stories in height, used for the carding and packing of buttons and the manufacture of boxes. In the rear of the mill was a lai ge dye-house, in which was stored an exteualve stock or ivory nuts, and other materials used in the different departments of the establish merit. Of all these nothing remains but the chimney, and Mr. Warner's actual loss is upwards of $100,000. The Nonotuck Bilk Company of Florence lost an expensive dam below the bridge, besides an unoccupied building, and an old house leased by the Northampton Emery Wheel Company, besides others mentioned below, involving a toss of not less than $35,000. The houses are as follows; On the east side of the river, a large boarding house occupied by Captain T. F. Vaughn, an old grist-mill and office owned by the Nono-tuck Silk Company, and engine house, house belonging to George P. Warner and occupied by Frsfl» erick Y caiman; a double house also the properly ofAir. Warner, and occupied by Edward Hanuau andEdwin Pelton; a group of dwelling-houses, barns and ice bouses owned by W. F. Quigley; a largedwelling-house occupied by Mrs. Dunlea, Mr. Egie-ston and Mr. Harley, the property of the Nonotuck Silk Company, another house belonging to the safne company and occupied by Paul Norris and Martin France; a house owned by George p. Warner and occupied by Anthony Davis; a large dwelling-house occupied by Thomas McBride and James Kennedy; house owned by the Nonotuck Silk Company and occupied by Walter Humphreys, Mrs. Hosley and Mrs. Bonney; house occupied by Mrs. Patrick and Louis Bronette; the neat little chapel belonging to the Congregational Society, a house occupied by Mrs. Fitzgerald; a house and store valued at $7000, owned and occupied by Andrew Fen-nessey. Mr. W. F, Quigley’s loss, which includes damage to his residence, destruction of valuable furniture, including a fine cabinet organ, a barn, 72x10, with a large shed attached, a stable, 36x28, and an ice house, besides some valuable live stock, will foot up some $12,000. On the same side of the street were a large number of double tenements, closely packed together, and these were allswept away and scattered about in all directions, so much so that former residents are unable to locate their homes. The scene at this point is picturesque in the extreme, and were it not for the melancholywhich hangs over the neighborhood the risibilities offcthe beholder would be easily excited. The houses seem to have engaged in a grand pitched battle in the air and to have struck wherever they tumbled out of the melee. Some of them stand on end in the mire, while others lean against trees and fences, ready to go into fragments at the shortest notice.Results of the Flood in Florence.In Florence, as in Leeds, the Nouofcuck SilkCompany suffered serious losses from the partial destruction of their buildings. The gable and L of their mill were torn away, two machines entirely ruined and another seriously damaged, and two small outbuildings and a dye-house carried off. The total loss is estimated at $8000, of which $4000 is in the buildings, $2000 in machinery and $2000 in silks. About 100 cords of wood were swept out of the yards, and several pieces of loose machinery and utensils, the value of which cannot be at present estimated. The lower floor of the Florence Manufacturing Company's building waa also flooded, the boiler and engine being under water. Mr. O. C. Warner occupied a part of this story as a tile manufactory, and he suffered considerable loss. The large ice-house filled with ice on the south side of the river, below the iron bridge, was swept away, resulting in a loss to the owner of nearly $2000.Considerable damage was caused to farming landand meadows, large heaps of mud. stones, and everyspecies of rubbish being deposited over them. Thefarm of Austin Ross, the best in the neighborhood,suffered severely from the amount of sand and gravelwhich was thrown upon it by the flood. At least 100acres of his best alluvial soil is thus covered from fourinches to two or three feet iu depth by this deposit. Alarge proportion of his fences are also swept away.S. A. Bottum, A. T. Lilly, Solomon Phelps, Bela Gardner and other owners of meadow land suffered similar loss, the damage to the meadow land in Florence, altogether, aggregating from $15,000 to $20,000. The amount of flood-wood distributed along the banks of the river and on the Adjacent meadows is simply enormous. Acres and acres iu the aggregate are covered with dismantled buildings, bridges, fences, etc., in many cases from six to twelve feet in depth.THE LOST AND THE SAVED.Tlie Fearful Destruction of Life at Williamsburg-Whole Families Carried Away Together— Beveral Miraculous Delivera? cos— The Drowned at Sklnnerville and Haydenville—A Fatal Error Costing Many Human Lives at Leeds—Striking Incidents and IIair-Breadth Escapes, Etc,Naturally the most serious loss of life occurred at Williamsburg, although the people in the mills had more uoi ice to esc*ape than those further down stream. But Williamsburg was the most populous village of the four destroyed, and the houses were more generally built close beside the stream and nestled beneath the precipitous banks. Besides, it was early morning when the flood struck Williamsburg; some were yet in bed and many families were at the breakfast table. Besides, the flood was at its strongest when it overwhelmed this village, and had lost none of its fearful power by its progress down the valley, or by spreading over the meadows, as it did further on. In the very first house attacked, the wife and stepdaughter (Viola Collyer) of Livingstone Bartlett were swallowed up. In the flouring mill, W. H. Adams and T. J. Hitchcock were the victims, and in the next houses Patrick Scully’s wife, child and mother, Mrs, Eliza Downing and daughter and her husband’s mother were lost. Next to follow were Conductor Chandler’s wife and daughter, George E. Lamb’s wife and nephew,Alexander Roberts’s wife and two daughters, Mrs. Electa Knight, Mrs. Wood and her babe, Spencer Bartlett and wife and E. M. Johnson and family, The Kingsleys, E. G. and E. D., with their wives, and the latter’s two children, were carried away in their house; then the Widow Snow and the little son of H, H. Tilton. H. Birmingham, superintendent of the James mill, with his wife and three daughteis, Mary, aged nineteen, a teacher in Northampton, Lillie, aged fourteen, and Carrie, aged eight, were at breakfast when the flood took their house away, and all were drowned. James Murray was Attending his sick wife, and both were swept away together. iAt SkimiervilK Mrs, derorae Hillman, Mrs. Jacob Hill, Eli Bryant, father of Mrs. Joseph Hayden, and the little son of the latter, were all who lodtheir lives. Mrg. Hillman saw the water coming and went back to save something, but wag too late and was taken away by the flood. Mrs. Jacob Hill was the mother of a large family, and one of her young sons tried to save her, but a wave came bearing a timber and bore her from his hands. Little Robbie Hayden was out with his grandfather, who saw the flood coming and ran with him to the barn for safety. The barn was washed away and both were lost.At Haydeuville, out of the 220 men at work in the brass shops, only one w as lost, a Canadian boy named Francis Brodeur, who left the mill, but, returning for his boots, was overtaken by the flood and drowned. In this village, so far as known, thirty-one were drowned, the majority being the wives and children of the French Canadians employed in the Hayden, Gere Co. works and other manufactories.At Leeds,ike los of life was great, the notice given being so short that it was with great difficulty the girls employed in the silk mill and the button fac-toiies could get out before the flood was upon them. Then it is said that vjien they had got out and mij*bt have been *aved many were lost by becoming bewildered end trying to cross the bridge to the east side of the liver, instead of making directly for the high ground behind them. Of v thirteen girls and women who started across the bridge together, only one, Mrs. Mary C.# Harding, was saved. She ran swiftly and succeeded in reaching Ross’s store, which did net go down. Six or seven others who were near her got across the bridge safely, but rushed into the boarding house on the bank and were carried away in a few seconds. Half a dozen others, but a few steps behind, were swamped in the huge maps of debris which struck the bridge and carried all before it. In this village various extraordinary experiences and incidents occurred. Thomas Fennessy, Charles Brady and a Mr. Duning were savedby fortunately drifting into [different trees to which they clung until the waters subsided. Mr. Brady was made insane by the terrible experience. Each of these men had drifted upward of a mile in the seething current. From one wrecked house all the Inmates escaped only to perish, except a little child of French parentage, which was afterward found safely asleep on a bed in the half-demolished building. Mrs. Sarah J. Ryan and Miss Carrie Bonney hut time to escape, but were stupefied by fear and perished. The babe of Mrs. Ryan was swept away with its mother and drowned. Another child of Mrs. Ryan and A granddaughter of Mi's. Bouney were rescued by Mr, Frederic Clough, foreman of the button factory, to whom great praise is given for his courage and presence of mind. He was instrumental in saving the lives of many by promptness in spreading the alarm. A driver of a butcher’s wagon named Michael Hanna-gan was offered assistance in unharnessing his horse by Mr. C. S. Warner, which ho declined, thinking the water would soon subside.! Warner escaped by wading waist-deep to a neighboring bank, but the butcher was stoept off. He was lucky enough, however,* to get to a pile of floating lumber, which eventually drifted him into a tree, to which he clung.At Leeds, also, one of the saddest cases of death occurred in the drowning of Mrs. Jane Cogan and her two daughters, Grace and Annie. Grace was a student in the Westfield Normal School, and Annie was a teacher at West Farms. They had both come home on Friday night to if end Saturday aud Sunday, and were at breakfast when the flood came. The only survivor of the family is an absent daughter.Among the lost, at Williamsburg, was Dr. E. M. Johnson, a prominent and highly respected citi* m, the village physician, and deacon of the Congregational Church, who perished in the flood with his wife and three little children. He was a graduate of the New York College of Burgeons, He was born in Frederick, Md., and served as surgeon In the Union army in the war. * wIu the multitude of family bereavements, that of Conductor Chandler of the New Hitveu and Northampton Railroad is noteworthy. He resided in Williamsburg, and left on Saturday morning, as usual* on his train. It was the last time he ever saw the members of his family alive.Mr.T, J* Hitchcock and his ancle, Mr. W. H.Aclnm^, were drowned. The former was a brother of Mr. A. P. Hitchcock, an attachd of the Boston Journal. Mr. Hitchcock, the deceased, having first secured the safety of his wife, hastened to warn his uncle, Mr. Adams. The latter had already heard of the peril, and, having alarmed his family, sought to regain the flouring mill, of which be was owner. The rush of waters caught both men, and they perished. The house of Mr. Adams withstood the flood, being supported by the house of Ifiram Hill, and Mr. Adams’s family were saved. Mr. Hitchcock was engaged in the flouring business with hig uncle, but was formerly Assistant Postmaster at Williamstown, and afterwards an insurance agent. Mr. Adams was about fifty-fivo years of age, and formerly ran a flouring mill at West Chesterfield, coming to Williamsburg about four years ago.The workmen at James’s mill, in Williamsburg, twenty-five cr more in number, escaped over the bridge to a knoll eight rods distant. Mr. Raymond, who was employed at this mill, saw, a few minutes later, his own houee go drifting by. He supposed, of course, that bis family were in it. Later, he learned that they had reached high laud before the flood struck the house.The safe belonging to the Haydenville Savings Bank and another belonging to Haydeu Gere have been recovered at a point about five rods from the site of the building where they were located. The contents were found in good condition, The bank safe contained $185, besides notes and securities.At Haydenville, Mrs. Edwin Thayer safely escaped with two of her children who were out-doors, but two others in the house not comprehending the cry of alarm given by the mother did not follow her aud were swept away with the dwelling.Among the incidental misfortunes attendant upon the general calamity is the breakage of tho mainpipe supplying Northampton with water. It is supped that some of the floating debris struckthe pipe at the point where it went under Mill River.leIt was impossible to discover the break, owing to the depth of water in the river, hut measures will be taken at once to carry tho pipe over the river by means of a trestle bridge.. This can be done iu the course of a few days, but, in the meanwhile, Northampton is minus a water supply, and extra preeau-nre.lions have been taken against A dwelling-house went over the dam between Leeds and Florence, and landed right side up on the flats below. A little boy, who was in the building, was thus saved.Had the people who escaped from the button factory at Leeds taken to tho railroad, instead of the carilage road, which runs on a lower grade, theywould have been saved. As it was, they perished.MEASURES FOR RELIEF.In this City—Meeting: of Citizens, This Morning—Contributions Coming: In from Churchesand Private Individuals—Action of the Municipal Authorities aud Churches In Spring-fie Id—In Other Places.Witli commendable and characteristiciromptness, His Honor, Mayor Cobb, has called an informal meeting of citizens at the City Hail, this morning, at 10 o’clock, when a consultation will be had »s to the best raethed of giving relief to the sufferers in the Mill River valley. A mealing would have been held, yesterday, hut the Mayor desired to confer with Governor Talbot, who did not return from Northampton until nearly noon. The Governor, on being asked by the Mayor as to the extent of the calamity, said that, as near as bo could ascertain, the number of lives lost would reach 150, and that between 300 and 400 were left houseless, homeless and utterly destitute. The people In the vicinity were doing all in their power to relieve the most pressing needs of their unfortunate neighbors, but the means at their command are wholly inadequate to meet the emergency. The Mayor then said that Boston was, as ever, ready to take prompt action for the relief of the suffering, and announced his purpose of calling at once a meeting of citizens. He also Informed the Governor that he should tender to the authorities of the towns the assistance of gueh portion of the Boston police as might he needed to eoOjeratein preserving order or rondering any assistance needed.

Tapley, William Birnle, Jared Beebe, G. M. Atwater and J. M. Cooley, $50 each. These were reported, and other papers, gone into as rich fields, not heard from.In nearly nrtl the churches on Sunday the terrible disaster was made the subject of comment. The Rev. G. E. Merrill at the First Baptist Church, the Rev. Dr. Burgees at the Episcopal Church, and the Rev. Mr. Hulburd at the Trinity Methodist Church, spoke particularly of it in their services in the evening; and at the Central Methodist Church, Mr. D. L. Pike, who had spent the day among the ruins, gave a vivid account of the awful devastation.

The Connecticut River Railroad Company announce that they will carry free any articles intended for the relief of the sufferers, and numerous peisons in town have tendered their services. The Rev. Messrs. Meredith and Cass have gone to the scene to see of what use they can be, and some of the churches have appointed committees to oversee the disbursement of their offerings. A silver quarter was contributed, in the morning, which Mr. Meredith afterward sold and resold until it brought oyer $10.In Other Places.Lieutenant-Governor Talbot reached Haydenville very soon after the subsiding of the flood. He called an informal meeting for relief and contributed $200 for the purchase of immediate necessities for thesufferers. All kinds of available clothing and food have been freely tendered by those fortunate enough lo escape the flood.N. B. Hussey, Merritt Clark, Judge Spaulding, E. P. Copeland aud M. H.
