Lonpon, Oct, 16, 1877, The HERALD prediction regardjng the arrival on the British coasts of the first of a series of four storms has been fulfilled to the letter ON SUNDAY NIGHT, On Sunday night, October 14, the most sudden and violent storm experienced for many years on the European coast burst over the British Islands, The rapidity with which the tempest ex- tended in area was extraordinary and creates the utmost astonishment here, DEVASTATION THROUGHOUT ENGLAND. Throughout England the damage caused by the storm is very great. and reports reach London trom all parts of the country describing the de- struction of property of every description. IN LONDON, In London the storm resembled asirocco bursting out of a clear sky alter a placid, beautiful, warm day—such weather that invites the thousands 0 this great city into the parks aud public prome- nades. The atmosphere during the day vefore the storm broke was briluantly clear. THE STORM BURSTS. The storm and gale struck London about ten o'clock On Sunday night, and raged with unabated fury until five o'clock on yesterday morning. The wind fairly howled over the city, tearing every movable object from its place and whirling the lighter ones like dead leaves through the streets and over the houses, AROUND THE METROPOLIS, Although the force of the storm was felt in Lon- don in an extraordinary and alarming degree, its destructive power was exhibited in the suburban districts still more markedly. Exposed buildings, such as detached cottages and villas, were un- rooted and otherwise wrecked. SHOWERS OF BRICKBATS AND ROOF TILES, Chimney stacks went dowa before the blast as if they were built of cardboard, and the tiles and slates were torn off the roofs and scattered in showers over the ground and roadways adjacent to the damaged buildings. It:was a dangerous experi- ment to venture out of doors while these deadly missiles were fajling on every side, TREES UPROOTED. ‘The ornamental shrubberies in the parks, and even large trees in many parts of London were up- rooted and scattered in fragments, Some of the falien trees displayed on their torn trunks and branches curious marks of the force of the storm DAMAGE ON THE THAMES. : On the broad reaches of the river below London Bridge the gale wastearfully heavy. Many lighters and small vessels secured in the ordinary way were forced from their moorings and dashed violently against each other or driven ashore. As yet no correct estimate can be formed of the amount of damage inflicted on the shipping in the Thames but everything indicates that it is very great, THE STORM IN THE PROVINCES. In other parts of Engiand the gale amounted to aperfect hurricane, destroying teiegraphic com- munication by blowing down the lines, delaying trains on nearly all the railroads and unrooting buildings of every kind. s HOW BRISTOL SUFFERED. At Bristol the storm raged furiously, causing heavy damage to buildings and shipping. Old resi- dents of that city state that rarely within their memory has such a destructive gale prevailed at Buistol. OTHER CITIES VISITE! The devastation extends to such well known cities as Oxford, where the University buildings Were damaged and many residences injured; Cam- bridge, where similar destruction occurred. Bath, though in a comparatively sheltered position, suf- fered, ana Windsor, where many valuable trees were overturned ia the royal parks. A RALLROAD STATION ROOF GON At Oxtord the great glass roof of the Great West- Railroad station was vlown away and the puilding otherwise damaged. CHRIST CHURCH WALK.

At Penzance, Cornwall, and the Scilly Islands the gale increased to @ hurricane, and many distress- ing rumors prevail as to loss of life and property along the coast. DIRECTION OF THE GALE, ‘The general direction of the gale, which caused 80 much damage throughout the South of Eogland, was trom the southwestward. Alter the storm it veered to the northwestward with diminishing force. NO ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES, It is impossible yet to estimate the extent of the damage caused by the storm, the loss of life and proverty and the shipping disasters that have un- questionably occurred, GALE IN THE BAY ISLANDS.
