The Fifth Tornado That Has Swept Over Those Striokon Counties in the Past Six Weeks! Eleven Persons Known to Have been Killed—Many Others Wounded! Tire People fii.l.llellijce in I'ilN mill l>i<ires. GREAT DESTRUCTION QF PROPERTY ! Talbot and Harris counties aro just beginning to recover from the terri ble effects of the destructive torna does which visited them a few weeks since. The ruins of this desolation have not yet disappeared, and yet on last Saturday afternoon these same counties were visited by another tor nado, which, while it was not so ter rible as the first, yet caused much destruction of properly and loss of life. The tornado seems to have entered Harris county at Collins’ ferry, on the Chattahoochee river. Before" this time it is supposed that it was merely a strong wind. Its course xvas direct ly from west to east. Tho first place it struck, so far as known, was that of Mr. Hal Moss. Here all the houses on tho promises were blown down, and nearly all the stock killed. For tunately the family took refuge in a cellar and.were all saved. The whole place xvas a scene of desolation, and it is remarkable that no lives were lost. The promises of Air. John Hadley and of Mr. John Barker wero next, struck by the destroying storm. Here all the houses were torn to pieces; trees destroyed, fences blown axvny, and a most general destruction of property made. Fortunately no lives wore lost. Widow Smith's houses were blown down, and she \x - as badly wounded. There is a strong probability of her recovery, howox'er. Calvin Teel’s houses were blown completely to pieces. At tiiis point the eyclono crossed the mountain, directly north of Ham ilton. II seems to have been charac terized by all the peculiarities of its predecessor. A citizen saw it about four mites from Hamilton. 1 1, crossed the mountain where tho North & South Railroad track reaches that lo cality. The roaring sound of the tor nado could be distinctly heard five minutes before it came. This enabled the people to seek refuge in ditches, and thus the lives of many were saved. They remembered tho roaring sound which proceeded the other tornado, and as soon as they heard the same noise they knew what was coining. The roaring of Murrah’.s mill prevent ed t lie negroes there at work from hearing the approach of danger, and consequently several lives were lost, and some of those who escaped were very badly wounded. On Air. R. B. Alobley’s place a number of cabins were destroyed. The gin-house was blown away, and a general havoc made of the fencing on the place. Air. 8. I’. Grant lost several houses. Jesse Roberts, Esq., a very old man, lost all his outhouses. His frame dwelling was saved, but several shed rooms were torn away from it. Air. Morgan Murrah lost his dwelling and out houses, and all of his provisions were destroyed. His family fled to an old field on hearing the approach of the tornado, and were thus saved. Air. W. C. Davis’ houses were torn to pieces and the timbers scattered far and wide. He and his wifi; and child were badly injured by the falling planks. Mr. B. G. Hood lost his blacksmith shop, his gin-house, and ail his out-houses. They were com pletely destroyed. His dwelling es caped. At Air. AI. H. Spence’s pi aw the desolation was terrible. Three negroes were killed. All the out houses were destroyed, the dwelling unroofed, and three rooms torn off. The forest around was torn to pieces and made a scene of destruction. Beech Spring Church, just in front of Air. Spence’s house, xvas blown down, and several negroes xvho were in and near it were badly wounded. Mr. John A. Middlebrook’s gin-house and other out-houses were complete ly destroyed. Alurrali’s mills, on Mountain creek, wero completely demolished. A ne gro and his mule were both badly hurt here. A white man near by received severe injuries. The tor nado crossed this creek no less than six times. Mr. Pickens Murrah had almost all his houses destroyed. Air. Pinckney Alurrah’s place suffered heavily. Houses were blown down and fences carried far away from their original positions. A store house and an academy near these places were blown to pieces and some of the timbers carried a great dis tance. Several negroes were xvound- COLUMBUS, GA.. TUESDAY, MAY 4, 1875. od in this vicinity, though no deaths are reported. Mr. M. C. Grant’s place was in the line of the former terrible tornado of the 20th of March. Three buildings were destroyed here, and nothing left on the whole place but one room. Mr. Grant lias a pit for a place of refuge from tornadoes. It would be good policy for all tho farmers of Harris county to follow ills example in this respect if those tornodoes con tinue. Dr. S. G. ltiley had some tenant houses destroyed. The occupants were übseut and llius escaped. Around Mr. J. T. Middlebrooks’ place the forests wore terribly de stroyed. Fortunately'the house was not in the line of the tornado. The residence of Mr. 11. 15. Mobley was badly injured. Several negroes were wounded. On good authority we give tho fol lowing estimate of the loss in Harris county so far as heard from : Hal Moss, loss unknown, but con siderable ; Hooch Spring church $800; It. G. Hood $200; M. H. Spence $500; Murruli’s mill and damage in vicinity $1,500; It. 11. Mobley $1,500; S. P. Grant $500: Pink Grant $300; M. H. Murrah sß>Mi; Me. Grant $-500; Dr. S. (>. Riley $1,000; and Thomas Middle brooks SOOO making a total of $8,300 already estimated. The loss is much heavier than this, for at many places the amount of damage is not defi nitely known. So far us reported there were six lives lost in Harris county -all negroes. Several white persons were badly hurt. The loss in Harris and Talbot is not as large as that which resulted from the tornado of March, but the destruction of farms, forests and fen cing is very general. Crops have suf fered considerably, and many of the farmers arc almost made prostrate by this blow. TUT. TORNADO IN TALBOT COUNTY. The tornado struck Talbot county nl the place of J. 1). Meyer, about :lj o’clock p. m. Hero it destroyed all the timber on tho laud it passed over, made a complete wreck of fencing, and demolished all tho grain crop. The last four places mentioned were in the track of tho tornado of March, and almost everything left by it was destroyed. The storm next passed Sim De loach’s plantation. A white boy and a negro were in an old field; they lay fiat, on the ground to save themselves; a sill from a house nearby was blown upon them ; tho negro was killed out right and the white boy was severely wounded. Mr. M. V. Wilson lost all of his houses. His wife was severely woun ded, and he suffered slight injuries. \V. P. Crawford’s place was badly damaged. Ail the houses on tho place of Mr. James M. Weaver were blown to pieces. Timbers were carried a con siderable distance, and the whole place was laid waste. Mr. Weaver was badly hurt. A negro on the place was killed, and several wore badly wounded. Two churches and an academy were blown down at Valley Grove. Dr. Owens’ place, near by, was oc cupied by Rev. J. J. Harris. Ho and his family had been to church, and had returned with company. They were all in the kitchen eating dinner when the tornado reached the place; the kitchen was blown down. A young man named Kendrick, and a young lady named Kennedy, were killed. Thirteen persons were wound ed. Several negroes on the place wore wounded, and two or three were killed. Among the white persons wounded here were two daughters of Mr. James W. Weaver, whose place was damaged as stated above. Elev en persons arc known to have been killed in Talbot county. Tho destruc tion of crops is general, and distress ing great want prevails in tho section of country through which tho storm passed. Tho sufferers aro unable to do anything for themselves as yet, and it is to bo hoped that a helping hand will be extended by those who arc able to give relief. Some parts of the State responded nobly when tho terriblo tornado of March spread des olation in these and other counties. The farmers who escaped unhurt are doing all they can to help their suf fering neighbors. The track of the tornado is described as being a scene of utter ruin. Wholeforests are pros trate; crops are ruined; dwellings blown away, and scarcely a vestige left where there was prosperity and plenty. This is truly a groat calamity,*and its blow fails with crushing weight since the terrible tornado which vis ited these counties little more than a ago. It is a remarkable fact that two such tornadoes should occur in the same year, and wonderful that they should come almost together arid on same day of the week. This is the fifth tornado which has passed over Harris county in forty days. There must he some cause for this strange coincidence, and it is probable that the scientific men of the country will attempt to explain it. STORM IN TBOUI’ OOUNTY. A violent storm is reported to have occurred in Troup county near West Point. Several houses are said to have been destroyed and throe or four lives lost. Fences, forests and crops suffered greatly. The storm passed the track of the Western Road just before tho arrival of the passen ger train. HOUSTON COUNTY. A telegram published in the Timks on Sunday spoke of a storm in Hous- ton county, fuller particulars of which have since been obtained. Tho destruction of property is reported to bo large. Farmers are injured badly. RUMORS of a general destruction by storms all over the State were current yester day. It is probable that there was some exaggeration, but there has un doubtedly boon a great destruction of property, loss of life, and havoc of crops. It will boa long time before the effects of this tornado and of tho terrible one of last March shall have entirely disappeared. Hamilton, (la., May 2, 1875. Mr. Editor:— Another terrible storm occurred in this county on May Ist (Saturday), about 4 o’clock r. m. THIS IS THE FIFTH STORM that has passed over this county with in tho last six weeks, and was more terrible than any of the proceeding ones. As wo learn, it came from Alabama, crossing tho Chattaliooehoo river near Collins’ ferry, and the first place it struck was Mr. Collins', literally de molishing his house, fonoingand tim ber. The next place is 11. E. Moss’; destroying his large dwelling house, gin-house and outbuildings, and kill ing all but one of Ids mules and eve ry head of eat t 10. Tho next house was John Burke’s, where It demolished everything, and killed all of his cat tle. Next in turn was Elbert Garnett, at which plaeo it played the same havoc, besides wounding himself and child severely. Next in course was James Campbell’s, whore everything was destroyed, and his wife's leg broken. Tho next place vistod was Mrs. Smith’s; herself and three of her daughters were badly Injured.

Aggie Gorham, colored, had her collar-bone broken, and her mother xvas badly bruised. Next Calvin Teel; houses all blown away. Hero the storm crossed Pine Mountain, two miles north of Hamil ton, at Hogs’ gap. Tho next place it struck was J. M. Mobley’s, blowing down two gin houses, out houses and fencing, and wounding two negroes. Next Tip Grant; very severe, blowing away everything. Jesse Roberts was next; houses all gone except main body of ins dwelling. Pink Grant’s houses all gone. Morgan Murrah’s houses and provisions all gone. Here the family all lied into an old field for safety. Mark Grant, who lives in the line of tho storm of the 2th of March, one and a half miles east of Valley Plains, and who was badly torn up then, had his plantation tools and ev erything else, except ono house, blown away by this storm. He had a pit dug for safety, in which himself and family were at the time of tho blow. Hero it tore up trees, and was worse than tho furies of the first storm. The eartli was at tiiis time dry, but in the storm of tho 20th of March wet. The next place l hat felt its terribly destruc tive power was Dr. Rnily’s; destroy ing his house, fencing and forest. Fortunately his family was from homo at, tho time. Thomas Middle brook’s forest and fences were all de stroyed. He was tho last that suffer ed in Harris county, on the lino of Talbot. J. D. Moye, in Talbot county, lost his fences and forest. All of Rev. J. H. Harris’s houses, excepting tho sta ble, were swept away, arid a negro wo man and child killed. Simeon do Loach, Young do Loach, and a negro boy laid on the ground together. The negro boy was killed by a sill. Young de Loach was not hurt. At Valley Grove two Baptist church es, and the Academy, aro gone; next, Dr. Owens’ place, whore Rev. J. H. Harris now lives. There was preach ing at the Grove on that day, and his family had returned with company, and while they were dining the storm came upon them, killing a young man named Kendrick, an old lady and mortally wounding her husband, Air. Kennedy, an aged man ; twelve other persons were wounded; and three ne groes were killed, and others were wounded. Tho houses are all gone, except, the dwelling. Airs. Kendrick and Airs. Lila Holmes, wore badly hurt ;Smilie, a daughter of Mr. Weav er, was wounded. Rev. Air. Harris, at the time, was absent, at Bethany Church, and xvhon he returned to his home, lie remarked, that he “found it like a hospital.” The next place, Rev. Alartin Wilson’s, the houses are all gone; his wife was severely injured; himself slightly hurt. At Air. Pinch Crawford’s place, occupied by Mr. Mills, considerable damage was done. None of the family were hurt. James Weaver’s houses are all gone; Weaver was severely wounded, and one negro man killed. I h<jve heard nothing further from east of this of the storm. It went in a line easterly, and tho last mention ed plaeo hero is about four miles west, of the Double Bridges, on Flint river. The average width of the storm was about a quarter of a mile, and the main track of tho line was about 120 yards wide. Frequently the timber boing thrown out on tho sides of the main lino, leaving the inside clear, with great holes torn in the ground largo enough to bury a man in; sup posed to have been done by tho ends of timbers being blown against the ground.
