Accounts from Cork, extending to late on Thursday night, seem

to indi- cate that the floods had in some measure subsided. The lives lost are esti- mated at thirty. The damage done to public and private property is very great. Some of the thoroughfares were impassable ; the quays were in a dangerous state ; and more than one bridge has been rendered useless. There have also been tremendous inundations at Macroom, Mallow, Per- They, and Buttevant. A great numbet of bridges have been quite swept away.
