The Hurricane.

Our correspondent at Souris writes ~ Wednesday's storm has been the heaviest known here for years. The sea dashing agaist the Breakwater and rushing along its length in a wild swirl of foam and spray incre wing in height and volume as it reach- ed the outer end resembled the discharge of a vast battery of artillery, the smoke white and dense as an aval: iche appearing and disappearing with ac: mighty roller that dashed against the wor; ; but it scood the trial well and only the loose material

used in and about the work was washed |

away.

The schooner Winnie drove from her moorings inside the Breakwater in the height of the gale but got inside the bar at the harbor and now hes high upon the bank. The Minnie J. L. was driven from her moorings and is aground, but has not sustained any serious damage. The brigt Magic lost both anchors off Grand River and ran into the harbor where she was driven aground on the flats. Several houses and barns in the course of construc- tion in this village have been blown down, and it is said that several houses and barns in the country, between here and the East Point have met the same fate. The des- truction of barracks, hay stacks and fences is general, and but few escaped without some losses in thisway. —

The K. C. Advertiser has the following account of the destructive hurricane of Wednesday :—‘‘ The breastwork at Hon. D. Gordon’s shipyard, and one belonging to Mr. John M. Stewart, near by, have totally disappeared, and the timber, mixed with shattered boats, lies in a broken mass at the angle of the shore and (Jueen’s Wharf. All the arches on the wharf were stripped by the desperate force of the water beneath. The outer end of an unfinished wharf belonging to Mr. Chas. Owen was carried away, and all of Sencabangh’s wharf frem the outermost block is smashed up and, with a heavy breastwork, was car- ried off. ‘The old brigt. Liberty, lying at the wharf, was lifted on top of the wharf, and rests there angularly in an upright position. Mr. Fairchild’s breastwork is completely washed away, as 1s also the western wharf of Messrs. A. A. Macdonald & Bros.. aud the covering of the Railway Wharf ripped off at the arches and some of it lost. ‘Che warehouse on the wharf is twisted and badly strained, and many of the shingles are stript from the roof and eastern side. The eastern railway track, a most extraordinary thing, is twisted un- der the building. Five large fishing boats were swamped in the gale and drifted ashore during the storm. ~ Captain Howlett’s schooner, Nellie May, sunk and was broken up against the Railway Wharf. The brigt. Sirius; owned by Hon. D. Gordon, broke loose from the Queen’s Wharf, and fouled with her schooner the Pocahontas, lying in the stream, and both grounded on Cameron’s Shore, on Monta- yue side of the river. They are, however, afloat to-day, with scarcely any injury done to them. The schooner collided with a Nova Sevtia vessel when drifting across the Harbor and broke the main-boum and car-

away the bulwarks of the latter. The brigt New Era dragged her anchors for

description. The wharf inside of the Lobs- ter Factory of Messrs. Forrest & Co. be- longing to Hon. Joseph Wightman at St. Andrew’s Point, has been carried away. Several blocks are gone. A small schooner is piled upon the shore near Aitken’s wharf, aud three others are beached at French Point, Montague. Richard Westaway’s bright. Plymouth, is ashore at Albion Bay. Richard Thernton’s barn was demolished, and another belonging to Hon. J. Wight- man was also blown down. The roof was blown off Richard Westaway’s house. The worst news, perhaps, come from CARDIGAN BRIDGE,

which was swept clean away. Besides, three schooners are strewn along the shore above where the Bridge stood. The vessels driven ashore at Cardigan Bridge are : Gal- axy, partly discharged ; Happy-Go-Lucky, loaded and ready for sea; Pink G. H. B., in ballast; Maggie Burke, loaded and ready for sea, is all right, loaded for MacDonald

it wad only at

their work manfully, and post and were

dark that they left their taken ashore in a boat. Tho water was) then on a level with the office door. The telecraph poles are carried away. The road bridye and the Railway Bridge are injured. The following vessels were all safe in port : Schr. Leonora, coal, Maria Alma, pota- toes: J. BR. Stewart, coal; Maggie Mc- Beath, from Buctouche ; Bay State, mack- , erel ; Pathfinder, stoves, ete., for Char- lottetown, and another vessel, name un- known.

Port Hastines, N. §8., Oct. 29.—The storm yesterday was the severest ever known here. ‘The damage done in

section of the country is incalculable. ,umber of houses were blown down and a woman killed by~one of them. Several vessels were driven ashore by the gale. The storm fullowed the Straits pretty closely. Considerable damage was done to the telegraph lines.

MONTAGUE BRIDGE

are the stranding of the barque John Gib- son, and aschoonor, both of which were loading there. It is rumored that a schoon- er went ashore at Souris in the sterm and that the crew were drowned.

We have not learned the extent of the damage done ashere except in the imme- diate neighborhood. At Burn’t Point, 4 new house owned by S. Croucher, was levelled tothe ground and also a barn be- longing to James McPhes. Geo. F. Owen, Esq., Cardigan, we learn, had his barn blown down, and a house frame belonging to Jehn Maher met a similar fate We must conclude without giving a list of the trves uprooted, fences blown away, and chimneys hurled to the ground.

It is most unfortunate that such a delay should occur at this season, as shipping must necessarily be retarded to a grave ex- tent. It will be necessary, in order to facilitate matters, that Cardigan Bridge and the Queen’s Wharf here receive the lnme- diate attention from the Public Works Department, otherwise a great loss will be entailed. We believe the Commissioner of Pablic Works will do his utmost to repair tiem, as soon xs possible.

Pomnt pu CHeng, Oct. 29.—This has been the worst storm and highest tide that ever visited this place. At about 4 p.m., the sea suddenly rose, and the Railway officials, with a gang ‘of men, immediately set to work and unloaded some six cars of freight out of the cars in the warehouse, aud before nearly 9 inches of water in the warehouse,

this was finished there was

Tinware, Stove Pipes, Bake Pans, Coal Scut- tles, and all goods generally found in a first- class Tin Store, hopes that by strict attention to his business to merit a fair share of public

patronage. ‘ Cc. F. HARRIS. Ch'town, Oct. 6, 1879.—4taw lm

CATA R RE.

Constitutional Catarrh Remedy CURES

CATARRH,

Hear what a Reverend Gentleman sayx of the Constitutional Remedy.

T. J. B. Harpine, Esq., Brockville, Ont.:—

Dear Srr—It is now two years since your “Oenstitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced to me. I have waited this ong to see if the cure would remain permanent before do- ing this, my duty, to you, as at first the na effects seemed to me to be ‘‘too good to true.”

1 was afflicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh, In reading in your Circular I saw my case described in mahy par- ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like smothering and be compelled to sit up in the bed. My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent came to Walkertown in August, 1376, I secured three bottles. Before 1 had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle I found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and a third, I quit taking it, feeling quite cured of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I bave taken some for a coid in my head.

A sense of duty to sufferers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certilicate, unsolicited, with leave to make what use of it yom may see proper Yours truly,

W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister.
