THE STORM AT GALVESTON. ‘VENETIAN SCENES—BOATING IN THE STREETS— APFRIGHTING FURY OF THE TEMPEST—WAVES TEN FEET HIGH. ‘Several editions of the Galveston News have arrived Rogether, having been delayed by the great storm of Jast weok, and from them we gain further particulars ‘of that disastrons event, SEVERE AS THE STORM OF 1867. ‘The storm fs thought by many old citizens to have been as severe as that of 1867. Mr. Yard, who has a mark on the door sill of his store on Tremont street, says the water line is nearly, if not quite, up to that of the year referred to, There is some difference of opinion as to whether the recent storm was simply a gale or acyclone. If the latter, the intelligent opinion seems to be that it was a thousand miles in diameter. The barometer during the storm in 1867 made a showing very similar to that of the past two days—a gradual and steady dechne, It is the general opinion among weather wiseacres that it @id not get so low during that storm as during the present. NEW YORK STRAMERS, The New York steamers aro still riding-at ease in their places, and, so far as can be learned, no damage has occurred to any vessel lying at the piers or an- cchored in the bay along the channel. The steamer Diana, of the Houston Direct Navigation Company’s line, Jef her dock and steamed to Pelican Spit, where she now lies in the lee of the island, and protected from the full force of the wind. AN AMERICAN VENICE, Several men rowed a boat up Twenty-second street yesterday, ana hitching at the corner of Market went into a saloon and “wet up.” They were the observed of observers, and such a Venetian scene, it is hoped, ‘will never occur again in Galveston, LOSS OF A HISTORICAL CHARACTER, Patrick Lanigan, Point, was an old soldier and a man highly respected for his many good traits of character. He worked on fortifications at Sebastopol, at Gibraltar, and at Metz, in 1845, He served in the Mexican war as an Ameri- can soldier, was wounded at Mier, and was one of those who drew a white ball five times in succession, thus getting off with his hfe, He was a very high Mason, was born in Ireland, a stonecutter by trade, and had been in Galveston about seven months. His trunk, which is lost, contained some valuables, his regalia and some curious relics of his past career. He was well known by Mr, Brown, of the Express line, and from him are learned these particulars. Lanigan was over whe is one of those lost at the | soventy-nine years old, and is thought to have been | Wost about midnight Wednesday night, STATISTICS OF TEXAS EQUINOCTIALS, The equinoctial storms of September at this place have yielded the foliowing results for the past five years:— 1871—From September 12 to 14.

One officer related that, having to swim along distance in order to save a fellow human from a watery grave, he became exhausted and would have met with the same sad fate himself had not his brave Newfoundland dog swam out to hita and aided both him and his human treight to the shore. THE BRACH. On nearing the beach the Work of the storm became more and more apparent. Outhouses, more or less shattered, parts of larger buildings, mixed with lines of fences and household furniture, were strewn all over | the road, while on every side, as far as the eye could reach, was one broad expanse of water, broken only by the houses which, like ships at sea, appeared to be floating on the surface of the water. THE RAROMETER AND THE STORM. From the following report, furnished by the Signal Officer, it will be seen how the record was yesterday :— UNITED STATES WEATHER REPORT. | Wind.

REEDER, Observer. THE WISTORY OF A NIGHT. ‘Truly it can be said that Thursday night was one that tried men’s souls. The water rushed from the Gulf ‘over the entire island, excepting a portion of the ex- treme west end and a few bigh and naturally protected Bpots near the east end of the city, and sidewaiks and yards raised by artificial means, Along avenue K, al- Most its entire length, the water was from two to three Jeet deep, and the same may be said of the other cross streets; those near the beach and bay front suffering more, because of lower grade. At two P.M. the most sanguine of our citizens began to look tor serious re- | sults, and the stoutest hearts prepared to meet the seeming impending dissolution of their houses. Such a period as that between twelve o'clock midnight and four A. M. bas never before been known in Galveston. ‘This is the opinion of the oldest citizens, The events that transpired in the vicinity of avenue L and Twenty- feventh street, where a large number of smail houses stand, were thrilling in character, and were repeated in other portions of the city. The bell of the colored Bap- fist church on avenue L, between Twenty-sixth and ‘Twenty-seventh streets, was rung, and screams from people in that region showed great distress. A CARNIVAL OF VENICE. Boats were busily plying between the suburbs and the Heart of the city removing women and children to places of safety nearly all Thursday night, and the Ereatest alarm existed among the residents of the lower dixtricts, as on some streets the waves ran with full force from the Gulf to the bay. WAVRS TREN PERT MGI. All who had been driven from their houses night before last by the gale represent it as terrible in appear- ance and frightful in it rowr, Some, who lived so ex- poredt that they Of the sea, believe the waves we h, and the water on M and N, between Eleventh and Twelfth streets, was fully five teet deep in the streets and very rough.’ One large four-room house was directly in the middle of Fourteenth street and fully one bunared feet from its former position. In fact, it is safe to say one hundred and fifty houses within a radius of ten blocks were mere or less injured, while thirly, including negro cae are entirely gone, portions of which ure scat- tered for blocks, and the furniture with which they were supplied can be picked ap by piecemeal. The rf woman—Mrs. Meaken—who was drowned, was jound partially covered with rubbish across the street frow where their house formerly stood. LOOKING FOR tomes. Twas @ sight pitiable indeed, wo see weak, frail women, children of all ages, as woll as able bodied men, the former but lightly dressed and hair streaming tn the wind, wading around in water trom one to three feet deep, pulling and hauling about remnante of houses, trying to something of their late pleasant ead happy homes.

WHAT THEY SAY WAS THE CAUSE OF THEIR FAILURE—LIGHT AMMUNITION AND A “‘FISH- TALL” WIND, In avery interesting conversation which was had yesterday with Mr. T. MacKelcan, Vice President of the Victoria Rifle Club, of Hamilton, Canada, that gen. tleman attributed the failure of the Canadian rifle team on Saturday to an unfavorable combination of circum- stances over which the Canadians HAD NO CowrRoL He stated that at the last practice match, which was held about a fortnight ago, the team scored 1,530 out of 1,800 points, which was eighteen more than what was made at Wimbledon in 1875 for the Elcho Challenge Shield, On that occasion Mr. J. J. Mason accomplished arecord of 204 out of a possible 225, or three more than had been made im the Elcho Shield match in any individual score this year. The score recorded py Mem on Saturday Inst was the lowest made since they commenced practising as a team. One of the reasons for this is to be found in the fact that onthe ranges of the Victoria Rifle Club, at ‘Hamilton, the shooting is done facing the northwest, and a southeast wind is hardly ever experienced; it is almost unknown there, ‘THE “‘PISH-TAIL WIND’? peculiar to Creedmoor does not prevail in Canada Another disadvantage under which the Canadians labored was that they had nota sufficient number of their men on the ground to act as ‘‘coachers,”’ attend to score keeping and watch the butts; while the Americans, being able to tarn out a large number of the Amateur Club's members, had all the aid they required in this important particular, Then, again, the Americans use @ heavier bullet, which, of course, requires a larger charge of powder, and consequently they have the benefit of a flatter trajectory, with, at the same time, an increased initial velocity and’ greater resisting power of the bullet against contrary drifts of wind. It is admitted that THE BACK POSITION used by the Americans in firing is much steadier than the military way of shooting adopted by the Canadians, The back position almost amounts to a fixed rest; whereas, in firing with the face forward, if @ man has any unsteadiness or nervousness about him, it is sure to manifest itself in the muscles of the arm, Mr. MacKelcan claims that with military riffes, and firing from the front far superior to their late opponents. With regard to the amount of powder as a driving charge, the Cana- dians could not use more than ninety grains even if they were disposed to do so, The reason of this seeming anomaly appears to be that after increasing the charge above ninety grains, their muzzle loading guns foul 80 rapidly from a residuum Jeft in the barrel, mixed with the particles of unburnt powder, as to render the weapon ineffective. When the charge is largely increased all the powder is not consumed. With American breech-loaders no inconvenience like this 1s felt; there is a great advantage to be found in the facility with which they can be cleaned, and ina marksman’s handling a perfectly clean gun after each shot. This is notso with the muzzle-loader; the longer you fire with it the fouler it gets, until the piece be- comes at last, to a certain extent, unreliable. It is pretty certain that when the Canadians and the Ameri- cans again try conclusions before the butts, the former will not only use breech-loading guns, but cock their TOKS TOWARD THE TARGET, So impressed of the necessity of this change have they become that their captain, Mr. Murray, has already announced his intention of taking a Remington Jong-range gun with him upon his return to Canada. The nerve and steadiness of the Canadians was fully demonstrated at the 1,000 yards distance, where, notwith- standing the disadvantages under which they were labor- ing, their score was better than that of the Americans points, even then with the loss of hots—one by Schwarz, who fired with- out abullét, and the other by D. Mitchell's pushing accidentally forward with his hat the tangent scale of his piece. With a day’s practice and a cross wind blowing, if any opinion can be formed from the average of former practices of the Victoria Rifle Club, the Canadians should have scored at least 100 points more on Saturday than they did In practice matches 190 points were considered only an ordinary score; whereas, on Saturday, the highest showed but 139. It was a condition of the match that the visiting team should have at least one day’s practice before the contest. This condition was not fulfillea ; but the Amateur Clubare not to blame, as, on the morning when the team ought to have practiced the military were in possession of the ranges. The Canadians, however, do not complain, and recognize the handsome manner in which they se treated by the members of the Amateur Rifle ub. A PROVINCIAL TRAM. In Canada there are a great many good marksmen, among whom a provincial team can be chosen. On such 4 team not more than one-haif of the men who shot on Saturday would be able to conquer a place, The Cana- dians hope that next year they will be able to put in | ‘the lists at the grand contemplated tournament near Philadelphia a team which shall be abie to ‘hold its own with the world.” If next year’s t match were to be shot on a range entirely new to all the contestants it would thus afford a better test of skill. The short experiences of Americans in long range shooting have been employed with such practical shrewdness and ability as to place them above any rifle club having the same period of existence in the world. The perfection to which Americans have carried their system of ‘‘coaching’’ and “spotting” tells much in their favor; also the manner of registering elevations, Variations of the wind and state of. the atmosphere aro of immense advantage when compared with a team who have nothing but merely verbal information to guide them on these vital points, ‘A principal reason why the Canadians pulled abead at 1,000 yards was that it being about sundown the south Wind, which had so much bothered them, calmed down. At the 900 yards range their failure may be attributed, among other things, to local air currents, which at that hour prevailed and were understood only b: accustomed to Creedmoor. The shooting nt 900 ‘was the worst ever made by the Canadians; they would not have believed it possible to make so ir a record, At this year’s Wimbledon meeting the Canadians car- ried off the Rajah of Kholpore’s Cup. The match isa military one. Two or three of the present team have shot for this trophy. On occasions of the contest Great Britain puts forward a team selected from all parts of the United Kingdom. At the time of the match this year no opponents appeared against the Canadians; and, after shooting their scores, tbe cup was awarded to them. Later on in the day, how- ever, ‘a British team put in a appearance and the Canadians very honorably refused to retain the prize unless they won it. It was shot for and the Canadians now won it by good marksmanship. TIE RETURN TO CANADA. Most of the Canadian team returned home yesterday evening by the seven o’clock train,’ via Suspension Bridge. The captain, Mr. Murray, and Vice President of | the Victoria Rille Club, Mr MacKelcan, leave New York for home this forenoon. A NEWARK NEGRO'S FATE. SHOT TO DEATH FOR A TRIVIAL OFFENCE— GRAVE CHARGES AGAINST THE PHILLIPSBURG POLICE. George Quacco, a well known and somewhat noto- rious negro canal boatman and politician, was shot and killed in the Delaware River at Phillipsburg by the police a few days ago under circumstances of great brutality, It appears that abouta year ago Quacco goton a spree in Phillipsburg and an officer named Lounsbury | attempted to arrest him. Quacco not only resisted, but turned upon the officer and gave him a sound thrashing, Quacco being a man of very powerful phy- sique, A warrant was issued for his arrest, which was effected, and Quaceo held to bail for trial. He jumped the latter, however, and it was not till one day Jast week ’that the police of Phillipsburg undertook to arrest him. He was at a place called Port Delaware, and Lounsbury and another officer were | sent thither to arrest him. He was found whittling a stick on the wharf, Lounsbury sald, “George, I have a warrant for your arrest,” and while reading the same Quacco made a sudden bound on board his boat and | ran down into the cabin, Lounsbury followed as far ‘a8 the door, but halted when he saw Quacco squaring off to defend himself to the uttermost. The latter declared he would be killed rather than be arrested, words which, as the sequel shows, were followed to the letter. Lounsbury told his fellow officer to keep guard over Quucco while he procured his pistol. On returning to the boat, reinforced by a third officer, he found that Quacco had jumped overboard and into the Delaware River at a shallow point, The officers began closing on him, and he tried to keep them back by pelt- ing stones at them. Finally Quacco struck out for the opposite shore, heediess of the de- mands of the officers’ to surrender. Then the latter opened fire on him and shot him dead in the water. policemen, one citizen going %o far as to try to have them arrested on a charge of murder or manslaughter, but was refused @ warrant, Quacco’s body was recov. ered and removed to Newark on Friday and buried | there.

LAYING OF THE CORNER STONE OF §T. PETER'S, AT ROBENDALE, N. ¥. Rosxnpa.e, Ulster county, N. Y., Sept. 26, 1875. ‘The ceremony of laying the corner stone of St. Peter's new Catholic church was yesterday the occasion of drawing a large number of people to the village of Rosendale. The Catholic and Temperance societies of Rondout and Kingston attended, and the charms of music were added to the solemn impreasiveness of the ceremonies, Rosendale, which numbers 6,000 inbabi- tants, and is encircled by hills, lakes and woods, ts situated on the Rondout Creck, about ninety-five miles from New York city. It is now thirty years since a few Irish Catholics settled in Rosendale. Twenty-six years ago a modest frame structure—St Peter’s old church—was erected by Father Martin, who was succeeded in Rosendale by Father P. Brady. The latter gentleman purchased the site for the new church and the grounds of the Catholic Cemetery, embracing nine acres. About twelve months ago, Father O'Flaherty, formerly of the Church of the An- nunciation, Manhattanville, and the Church of the Holy Cross, Forty-second street, was appointed pastor of Rosendale by Cardinal McCloskey, Immediately after his appointment, he commenced the work of building a new church, The subscriptions of his Irish parish- joners were prompt and generous, and his American neighbors were equally liberal in assisting him to build a church, which they consider will be the chief architeo- tural ornament of the village. The ceremony of bless- ing the corner stone commenced about four o'clock. In the stone was deposited a small iron box containing copies of the Hxwatp and othér papers, and a parch- ment on which were written the names of Pio Nono, Cardinal McCloskey, President Grant, Governor Tilden, Father O'Flaherty, Father Griff and the architect. * The ceremony was performed, ou iorum, by Father Griffin, pastor of the Church of the Annun- ciation, Manhattanville, assisted by Father McCarthy, pastor of the Church of the Holy ; Father O’Far- rell, pastor of Ropdout; Father O?Flaherty, Father Power, Father Doherty and other priests of the Arch- | diocese. The sermon, which concluded the ceremonies, | was delivered by Father Griffin, who, in his peroration, paid a tribute to the zeal and untiring labors of Father O’Flaherty and to the piety and generosity of his de- voted flock. The new church will be beautiful specimen of the decorated Gothic order which prevailed in England during the ay 4 partof the fourteenth century, The | entire length, from the porch to the rear of the sanc- tuary, is 120 feet, the width of the entrance front being 61 féet, The length of the church, from the end of the nave to the arch dividing the sanctuary from it, is 95 feet; the interior width is 58 feet, and the height, from the floor to the apex, is 50 fect. The material’ is of brick of the best quality, with stone foundation, The pastoral residence adjoining is of a design harmonizing with the church, which will be completed the approach- ing winter. The church will comfortably seat 1,400 people. It is estimated that 5,000 people were present yesterday at the ceremonies in Rosendale, NEW JERSEY’S SENIOR BISHOP. RESUMPTION OF EPISCOPAL LABOR BY BISHOP ODENHEIMER, To the thousands of Episcopalians throughout New Jersey, as weil as to hosts of citizens of other denom- inations, the news will be most gratifying that Right Rey. W. H. Odenheimer, Bishop of the Northern | diocese of New Jersey—the one erected about a year ago—has so far recovered from his serious i!lness as to | be able once more to resume active labor. Last spring the Bishop returned* from Eng” land, where, at the request of his clergy and people, he had gone last fall in search of much needed Test as well as health. While in England he was all the time under strict medical control, his attendants being Dr, George Johnson, the foremost of London physicians, and Sir William Gill who was knighted for | his services to the Prince of Wales during his illness a | few years since. On his arrival home the Bishop, by | advice of Dr. Johnson, at once proceeded to Schooley’s | Mountains, in Morris county, N. J., where he remained | all summer in pericct rest’ and quiet’ Recently ho | left there and took up his permanent abode in Newark. Atone time, while in London, his case | seemed hopeless; but a fine constitutional basis enabled him to weather the worst, and since then he has been gradually improving, untit now, as he remarked to a ERALD representative, he begins to feel as well and hearty as he did fifteen years ago. Yesterday he made a visitation to the Rutherfurd Memorial church, in Har- rison township, and confirmed a number of persons, He will probably reside at the Park House, in Newark, during the winter, and in the epring, doubtless, an episcopal residence will be provided by the diocese. ORIGIN OF “THE NINETY AND NINE.” ‘The Rev. Dr. Cuyler says that the history of the song which Mr, Sankey sings so often, ‘‘The Ninety and Nine,’ is curious. ‘“‘It originally appeared in the corner of an American newspaper, from the pen of | Miss E. C. Clephane. When Mr. Sankey was among | the Scottish Highlands he tried to find some hymn pe- | culiarly suited to the pastoral tastes of his auditors, | who were mainly shepherds. He discovered these lines in the Rock, an English evangelical newspaper. He adapted them to a wild, plantive air and they soon sung themselves into the hearts not oply of rustic Highlanders, but of Jords and ladies in fastidious mndon.”? FIRE AT ROCKLAND. THE OVERSEER OF THE PRINT WORKS KILLED. The dye house of the Rockland Print Works took fire yesterday morning about half-past eight o’clock. The flames, which originated from causes at present un- known, were discovered by a workman and the alarm was given at once. The establishment has a | stationary steam fire engine or pump ‘on the premises, which was at once brought into requisition with considerable effect, although for a while the mas- tery of the elements seemed a matter of doubt and the wildest excitement prevailed. By dors efforts, how- \ ever, the fre was conned to the dye 188. THE LOSS has been serious. ll the stuffs in process of finishing have been destroyed by fire or injured. by water. The machinery is also injured by water, The damage is estimated in round numbers at $100,000, but is covered by insurance. The sad feature of the fire is the loss of a valuable life, that of the overseer of the print department, Mr, Peter J. Dennan, one of the most popular and efficient officurs of the establishment. He had rushed into the building, and was standing directing operations from the bridge leading to the dye bouse waen’the gable end of the dye housé fell and buried him. FIRE AT TARRYTOWN. Shortly after two o'clock yesterday morning, fire broke out in the residence of CT. Hovey, at Tarry- town, which in a short time resulted in the total destruction of the building and contents, the inmates having had barely time to escape with their lives. ‘There was little or no insurance on the property, which was of considerable value, Mr. Hovey is the projector of the Greenwich street Elevated Railroad, and was at one time President of that company. ARREST OF A BURGLAR, Peter Dowling, of No. 114 Sullivgn street, was ar- rested last night by Officer Maloney, of the Eighth pre- cinct, charged with having on the 20th inst, entered the apartments of Mary Dilworth, at No, 189 South Fifth avenue, and stolen property valued at $25, KILLED BY A BILLET.
