He found himself for the first time in his lifo among strangers, but he soon obtaitiod employment as a driver in tho mines. Here ho mado friends, and his thirst for knowledge impelled him to devote tho hours when other lads were asleep, to study, lie afterwards joined debating societies formed among his fellow-workers, where questions relating to capital and labor wero discussed, and all his quick young sympathies being aroused he became in a short thne one of tho most fcrvii From the Republican.

New York, Sept. 20.—The waters in the Hooded sections of New Jersey had materially subsided last evening, but the heavy rain that fell during the night added considerably to their volume.
