AVe have rot yet, however, been able!
to ascertain at what point tlie violence ofj
the storm abated, nor indeed have we re-;
ceived any authentic account of its pro-]
beyond Capt. Warwick’s in A:
herst. But it is rumored, and believt-.1.1
tliat it passed through the comity of Am-i
herst, on its eastern margin, bordering!
on James River, and tlience into Buck-1
inghiim and the lower part of Campbell,
with tindiminished violence, sweeping]
away the growing crops of all kinds a
with the hesoni of destruction. Anion-:
t!ie sufferers in this direction, v-- have
heard, with certainty, of .Mr. J. B. (’nbo!!.
I)r. 31. Spencer, J. T. Bocock, and Dr.j
Joel V>. Flood. A\ o shall probnbl . hear!
further particulars of its progress in this!
direction in a day or two.
In Lynchburg, all were sufferers, morel
or less. The gardens, many of which
were highly cultivated, are entire!’.' de
stroyed, with the exception of the fen
vegetables—potatoes, onions, and b. • t —f
which were, in a measure, screened from}
the fury of the tempest bv their subter-S
ranean mode of cultivation. A-arly is-t
ery house in town lost a portion of. -i
window glass.— It is supposed t!iat not]
less than from 1,7 to '2J,t!i)o pane? werej
shattered. A few cliininirs were blown!
down, several dilapidated out-buildings'
prostrated, and manv trees uprooted.— ;
Fortunately, however, no lives were lost,;
though several persons received seven-;
contusions and bruises. Thou.-un !.? ofj
birds and domestic fowls were i.iii. and, and ,
the trees in tiie forests and yards, in
which the leathered tribe sought shelter,
were divested of the greater portion of
their foliage, and even their hark peeled
off, as though they had been,subjected
to a moderate cannonade. The amount
of damage done in this place and its im
mediate neighborhood cannot, of course,
he at present estimated, with any tiling
like precision. It may, however, be!
safely stated at 8100,0110 —and we should!
not deem double that sum an extravagant!
estimate. [
We can truly say that we never before t
beheld a scene so awfully sublime and!
terrific as that presented by this .storm,!
both in its approach and in i:.. p.rogi . --. ]
There was hut little thunder or lightning. I
but the descent of the hail was preceded!
for several minutes, by a monotonous,!
rumbling sound, resembling tin: bas/j
tones of distant thunder, or the deep roll?
of the mutlle'tl drum—and reminding us]
of the ominous notes which precede the]
earthquake, apprising the unhappy vie-?
tims of approaching death, too late to cn-f
able them to avail themselves of tiie Warn-*
ing. The clouds wore an unnatural as-5
pect, tinged with a greenish hue, and roll-J
ing and pitching in the “ void immense”*
with startling Velocity and fury. Luck-?
ily, however, the wind was comparatively]
mild, except for a very brim's when]
it exhibited that angry w/r m which itss
tremendous power is nr t .. :.t!I, di.--]
played. During thati: ' : space tt»c * tvart
of elements” so c-.iitp! i iy wrapped the]
largest objects in obscurity, that a house,!
within a few paces, was totally lost to,
sight. i
It is deeply distressing to look abroad|
upon 1 lie ravages ofthis calamitous storm?
—to seethe labors of of the farmer for
many months all blasted in an instant,:
find in some instances, we fear, the very]
means of subsistence of himseif and ofs
those dependent upon him, entirely cull
off. In such cases, however, it is not t'u i
part either of duty or wisdom, to waste]
our time in murmur.- and complaints.—s
“ These are thy works, Rareut of (iood !"s
not less than the seed-time and the bar-!
vest, the early and the latter rains. Those g
who have suffered by the visitation stilt?
have it in their power greatly to a'levi;
the calamity, by substituting, as far a.-*
practicable, other crops, which matim i
with more rapidity, in place of thosi j
which have been destroyed.— Virginian.]

ITURRIt' \ \ V. — i Tom destroyed- —j
Fire lives Ids/. —A slip from the office ofj
the Springfield (.Missouri) Journal, dated 1
June 23d, ten o’clock at night, says:—
“A gentleman who tins just reached here
from Canton, in Fulton county, bring: ,
information of a most disastroii - hurricane
having passed over that village on then
18th instant, at <5 o’clock, P. M. Tliat!
place contains about Bo houses, and iti to
few minutes two-thirds of them were lev-!
eiled with the ground : only three esea-;
perl uninjured. Five persons wi re kill-1
ed, one, a Mr. Swan, and three, children.i
One child was killed in it • mod: r's lap:!
one was blown a quarter of a mile, and
found dead next day shockingly mangled.:
One store (Mr. Foster’s) was blown down,
and the goods scattered over the prairies.
A great number of persons were severely
injured —Mr. Foster, it is suppo-v and, fe
tidly. The Presbyterian Church was oc
cupied by the houseless inhabitants. Mr.
Sebree’s tavern was also full. The ac
count which our informant gives of the
rush of the inhabitants to the tavern is
most appalling. <■
The great and absorbing question now
before the American people is whether we
shall remain united or whether wc shall
“ aid and abet” Mr. Calhoun in the estab
lishment of a “ Southern Confederacy.”.
Let the parting advice of'Washington,!
“ indignantly to frown on the lir>: attempt
that may be made to alienate am one
portion of our country from the rest,”:
furnish an answer to the question.
