Below wo giro a very interesting ac count of the hurricane in Harris eounty on Saturday last by an eye witness, which is fuller and more mi nute in detail than our accounts of yesterday: ' Mountain Hii.l, May 3, 1875. Mr. Editor: Saturday, the Ist day of May, was a threatening and angry looking day. Viewing the heavens in all directions (from my point of vlexy) the elements seemed to bo in I perfect confusion; clouds and winds j waring with each other for the mas tery. They were flying, crossing and coming into collision, producing a grand but fearful aspect. In the af ternoon, between three nml four o’clock, they seemed to have united j their forces to battle with fences, for rests, houses and man sweeping ev erything in its course, and being as I destructive as any cyeloae which lias passed through tho country. I visited the track of tho storm on j Sunday, and noted down its destruc tive effects, from observation and i from reliable witnesses, from west to ! east, over the track of the storm for twelve or fifteen miles. From the best information, the first point of destruction heard from was six miles from Berlin, whore it struck tho settlement of Dick Chamber's, destroying all of his houses except one small kitchen, together with tim ber and fences. Crossing the river one mile above Halo's ferry, it struck William Smith’s place, tearing down two outhouses and unroofing* two others, with great, destruction to the plantation generally. Front this point it passed on to the plantation of Judge James Patillo, destroying a j settlement of houses occupied by ton nants. From there to Penial Col lins’, where it seemed to concentrate its forces, to the destruction of every thing in tho form of a house, tree or fence, save two houses —one on either side oT its track. This was the point of my observation, and language fails me in describing tho wreck here. It is beyond description. Mr. Collins’ family were saved by getting into tho cellar, which they occupied as a din ing-room. There woro portions of two rooms of the dwelling left stand ing, but they were badly wrecked. Nearly every article of furniture, bed ding, clothing, pocket-book, notes, deeds, &c., were torn to pieces, blown away, or scattered among the debris. Avery large barn, with stable under neath, cabins, gin-house, screw; in fact, every house was either blown : away or piled up in a mass of ruins, together with pieces of furniture, clothing, limits of trees, &e., &c. Standing a few steps back of his house in the direction of tho coining storm stood a house, occupied by the Widow Dunn, her daughter and son. Everything that she had was swept away- provisions, bedding, clothing, save a few articles picked up among trees arid idles of wrecked lumber. .She is a worthy Christian lady in fee ble health from age. She greatly needs assistance. Fortunately for her .and her daughter, they were from home, having attended church on that day and stopping at ’Squire Whitten’s. Mr. John Cochran, son-in-law to Mr. Collins, whose house was some 150 yards from his father-in-law’s, had his store house biown to pieces, and the goods blown away, witli his books, bills, &c. Out of his stock ho has saved in damaged goods from $25 to S4O worth. Many of these goods he was owing for. On tills place—the Collins place onions were blown up by the roots, also Irish potatoes and wheat; onions not blown up had their tops wrung off. T saw not a single one but what was in this condition. Wheat was beheaded, leaving the stems so whipped and trailed that it had turned to a yellowish color; some looked as if a flood of water had swept over it. Twenty-five hundred panels of outside fencing was put up on Sabbath by forty-eight hands, headed by Hon. Flynn Hargett, and ’Squires Whitten and Dennis, and others. There were 100 or 200 persons thereon Sabbath men, women and children rendering all the assistance possible. At, Mr. Collins’ a negro woman was killed. Seeing the storm coming she fled from her cabin to reach the dwelling of Mr. Collins ; getting about half way, near the horse lot, she was struck down by timber, or a rock weighing about four pounds, crushing the cranium so that the brain ran out. A negro man had his fore-arm broken; another received a gash on the head. Two other per sons were slightly injured. Trees were completely stripped of leaves as they fell; those not blown down by the roots wore blown off at vari ous heights. It would take a quire of foolscap to give the particulars on this place. One hundred men could not in two weeks produce such de struction ; it is beyond human power. Divine Power is as clearly seen here as the sun at noonday. The estima ted damage on this place is $2,000. From this point it struck the Widow Billingslea’s plantation, destroying fences and a great deal of flne t imber. On to Ransom Little’s, destroying negro houses, gin house, carriage house, carriage, &c. Next on to John Burton’s, blowing his dining room from the dwelling, but not tearing it to pieces; destroy ing negro cabins and wounding three negroes; one died at night, another will (tie, another having two limbs broken and head cut. Thence to Thomas Spivey's, blow ing his carriage house down, and un roofing his son's (Reuben Spivey’s} * house. j Nest to Captain Moss’, two miles i below Whitesville, on the Columbus road. Here tho storm seemed to double its force, not leaving a house except two ordinary buildings on tho outskirts, one on either side of its track. Mr. Moss’ family was saved by being in tho collar. This was a fine settlement of houses, with every thing arranged for convenience und happiness, but all was swept away. Mr. Moss saved about 3,000 pounds of bacon and about 25 bushels of corn. He lmd throe lino mules and one horse killed. Mr. George Watson, living on the opposite side of tho road in a very nice and comfortable dwelling, had everything swept from him and his entire family wounded. It is thought two of them will die. To give you an idea of the destruc tion on Mr. Moss’ place without ex tending tliis article by noting partic ulars, the estimated loss is from SIO,OOO to $15,000. From there to Mr. John Booker's it made a clean sweep of all in its way. It left not a house on Mr. Booker’s place. William Bi num was seriously, if not fatally, wounded. Fortunately Mr. Booker and family were from home, and con sequently their lives saved, but their property was swept away. Then on to Mr. Cal. Davis’ place, still dealing out destruction, and so seriously in juring him that it is not thought he will live. From theuco to Beach Spring Church, tearing it to pieces. Next it struck Judge Speueo’s place, unrooting his dwelling, killing three negroes, wounding a number of otii ors, and doing other damage. On it speeds, wrecking all in its way, strik ing Mr. Pinckney Hurrah’s mill on Mountain Creek, and blowing it down. There are numbers of incidents, ap palling and otherwise, which could !>■ noted if time would permit. I l would state that I received it from a reliable witness that Mr. Moss said notwithstanding his great loss he was the happiest man in Harris count y. Ho said men could build houses, money would buy mules and horses, but could not buy families; lienee,as bis family were all unharmed lie was happy. This is talking not only like a sensible man blit like a Christian. 8. W. Bartley. WI TH CAROLINA RAILROADS. AS INJUNCTION AGAINST THE PORT ROYAL RAILROAD. Savannah, May 4.

The men then struck tho Ist mate from behind, fracturing the skull; the 2d mate coming to the rescue,was seized and thrown overboard alive.
