COOPERSDALE, Pa., Dec. 17.-Two bodies were taken from the Conemaugh river at this place on Sunday, and one yesterday morning. One of the bodies found on Sunday was positively recognized as that of Walter E. Hoopes, formerly secretary of the Johnstown Company. This is the second body identified as that of Hoopes; the first was forwarded to Baltimore, where Hoopes formerly lived, on November 15th. The washing away of three bridges by the recent rains leaves Johnstown in a very bad condition, travel by wagon being almost wholly suspended.
