THE GALES.

The forecasts of probable weather issued from the
meteorological-office, London, for yesterday on the
southern coasts were fully confirmed again by- a fresh
gale from S.E. round to S.W. It commenced about
midnight, and continued in great strength until this
afternoon, when, having veered in to about S.W.,
the wind moderated. The barometer fell half ah
inch between 3 p.m. on Monday at 10 a.m. yester-
day. At 6 p.m. last evening it marked 291, having
fallen rather less than a tenth during eight hours.
The wind had again veered round to nearly S.
" moving against the sun"—and the weather alto-
gether remained very unsettled. No casualties had
been reported, with the exception of the arrival of a
derelict vessel in tow, but several vessels of large
tonnage have put in at the Motherbank and St.
Helen's-roads for shelter.

The recent gales have in the North and East Rid-
ings been accompanied with a heavy fall of rain, and
on Monday, for the first time for 18 months, the
rivers Rye, Leven, Costa, and Derwent overflowed
their banks. In the low country traversed by these
streams and their tributaries there is a considerable
tract of land, grass chiefly, under water, rendering
the herbage useless until the spring. Although the
flood is not a heavy one, the North-Eastern Railway

Frost prevailed on Monday night, and the waters
were receding. Except to stacks, the recent gales
have done no damage in the North and East Ridings.
