THb bIOR VL During the night of Sunday last and the morning of the following day, a most dread ful storm of wind & rain was experienced in this place.— The wind which had prevail ed at N. E. for'or 4 days* continued to increase gradual ly in violence till Sunday mor ning when it was accompani ed with frequent showers width a violent gale which by the evening had increased to a storm. The rain continuing so abundant as to drive into the most secure dwellings, du ring Sunday night the wind gradually changed to the north and then early on Monday morning to the N, W. increas ing in i uden'ce in every change from 8 to 10 o'clock; it in creased with its utmost vio lence during its change from N. \V\ to \V. About 10 o’- clock it gradually came round to S. W. when.the ram began to cease and-the wind to come in puffs with intervals of 4 or 5 minutes—from this time it gradually ceased in violence and by 3 o'clock, P. M. the rain, ceased altogether. The effects of the storm have been visibly marked, by .a general prostration of fences and trees. The chimneys of the Cape bear bank, of the large house lately owned by Wm. Giles, Esq. dec’d, of Mr. Robert Mitchell, of the stores occupi ed by Mr. Jennet and Messrs XPRee & Gourre were biown down and the roof ofjfhe iast mentioned store was carried a way. Thfe wharves nave been somewhat injured, a sleep from Bermuda ‘ sun!?, and a brig forced from the wharf and dnveii beiow on the short? of Mr. Campbell’s plan tation. Fortunately no lives have been lost nor have we | heard of personal injury re ceived by any one in the town. But along the bound the de vastation has been widespread and ruinous. The tide rose in some places to 6 aril others to 14 feet above high water mark, highest in the direction t of the salt works of Messrs. Jocelyn and Grayer. ‘These gentlemen who had deserved ly the credit of having earned their experiments in Saltmak ing to a successful result, and : led the avay to the establish* , ment orsalt works, and winch they had rapidly extended a long the Sound haye been the ; greatest sufferers G i4 to 17,- 000 feet of their works have been washed away, besides SOOObushels of salt. Mr Jas W. Walker and .Col. A. F |'M‘Neil, nave lost ‘ considera ble Sait, besides apart of their i works. MessrsMMake, Cow an, Geer,.and Robmson, have suffered a total iossof-theu works, besides a quantity of Salt already made. Major John HI. Loudon, and Mr. K Bradley, suffered a partial, though stiff severe loss, occa sioned by .the wpid alone. In deed we understand that not one establishment ol me kind, with the exception of Mr. ii. B. Howard’s has entirely es capecf the ravages of tilt* storm. The loss sustained by the different owners of these works may be estimated at between 50 and 60,000 dollars. .The roads have been rendered im passible by the failing of trees and the rising of me water courses. Three mails are due, and for a time all travel ling has been prevented. WHAT'S HONOR? Not to be captious, nut unjust ly fight; Tis to confefs what’s wrong, and do what's right.
