"Tho damago dono seemod too great to bo realizod, and al- though the statomonta medo wora alarming, thoy convoy no idea of tho injury done to prop- orty, and of the number of persons killed and ‘wounded. ‘In’the nbsenco of tslographic com- munication with the interior, - nothing dofinite could bo learnod, and henca tho dispatches wera mudoup from rumors, with s fow sonsntional sdjectives ‘sandwiohed in to make tho cyclono truly horrible. Had tho writor of tho dispatch * had the most vivid imagiuation, ho conld not have pictured the devastation and ruin wrought within two houra.

THE TEMPEST ROATL. No damago whatever was done 1 Washington, the point nearcst whero tho atorm laid its do- stroying hand being nbout 6 miles distant. Tho ronr which accompauied ihis manifestation of tho anger of maturo was distinetly heard horo, '} aud it iu said by farmers, who liva 10 miloa away, that thoy heard s peauliar, rumbling noiso, and couldnot_nvold connecting it with the storin. To some the noise sounded liko o heavy freight train at night, whon ovorything was reposing; to othors, like muslrotry, with an accastonal dis- chargo of artillory. Scarcely any light- ning flashes were visible, and only sn gceaslonal Joud peasl of thunder wag heard. ' The rain fell in torronts, not in drops, but in sheots, thors appoaring to be o lekoof watorin tho atmosphere. Tho whole country was flooded to tho dopth of scveral inchos, and it ig feared tho corn already plantod hag been washed out. Tho little crocke and rivulots, whicl{ siapply Blcunlk Rivor, wore awollon and ovorflowed their banks, carrying away {racs, end causing the banks to cave id, IN THE LINE OF TIE BTOR. Evorything, oxcopt horo and ther s mile or two ovor which the 'Wllh‘}\'lul]‘ soems to have jumped, is desolate-looking. Scarcely .a house, barn, shed, or gravary is left.
