THE GREAT STORM.

The disastrous storm, by which this country'and its
coasts. have been visited, appears to have been attended
with consequences still more deplorable than were at
first supposed. Its ranges have extended themselves far
and wide, as will be seen in the subjoined details from
numerous and widely distant parts of the country.

THE METROPOLIS.
•
On Wednesday, from a very early hour in the morn-
ing, a terriffic gale of wind raged over the metropolis and
suburbs, contiquing nearly the whole of the day,
causing, unfortunately, the loss of more than one life,
and severe injury to several persons, whilst the pro-
perty destroyed by its violence will take large sums of
money to restore. There is scarce!; Li street Where VIE;
storm has not made itself felt, and the scene pNsented
in several thoroughfares was truly alarming—stacks of
chimneys, files, slates, &c., strewing the ground. About
half-past seven o'clock in the morning, at Grove-lane,
Camberwell, a wall skirting the roadway, about 27ft. in
length, and nearly 15 high,- was forced down, together
with three large trees, the latter being snapped off close
to the ground. A . female was carried off her feet into
the Surrey Canal, at Peckham, by the wind, and
drowned. A Eight-watchman at a wharf at Deptford
was, whilst on duty, blown into the river with terrible
force. The unfortunate man was rescued, but in an in-
sensible condition. In the Waterloo-road, a man
was passing across the road, when a large chimney
was blown. from • one of the house tops, and. in
its descent struck the poor fellow •on the head.
The unfortunate man's jaw was dislocated, and ,he
has a most terrible wound on the skull. At the hospitals
several cases of persons being injured, and in some
instances- very severely, from bing struck by tiles and
chimneys, were received. In the neighbourhood of
Peckham, Dulwich, and -Sydenham, the. damage has
been most extensive, large trees and hedges being blown
down and uprooted. During the storm the river pre-
sented a most unusual appearance, the water being in a
state. of great commotion, 'and dashing with tremendous
force against the banks. Shortly after two o'clock it
was about high tide, and the wind forcing it over the
banks, the water rushed into the dwellings in Princes-
street and Fore-street, Lambeth; doing,a vast amount of
mischief. The craft in almost every part has been
damaged, and several old watermen and lightermen state
that they consider it the most serious storm they ever
remember to have experienced in London.
