THE HAILSTORM AND GALE OF YESTERDAY.—Yester'
day morning the weather was extremely cold, with
piercing wind from the north-west. Shortly after it
o'clock the metropolis was visited by a heavy hail snd
rain storm, with violent squalhi, which gave tokens of
an approaching hurricane. The wind gradually draft
more round to the eastward, and in the afternoon the
hailstorm came on with great violence, many of the
hailstones being half-an-inch in circumference. The '
accounts received from the Custom-house officers and
the captains of various steamers describe the gale of
yesterday and the previous night as having been very
disastrous in its effects along the coasts, as a large num'
ber of wrecks have been seen. In the Lower Pool and
Black wall and Woolwich Reaches many of the vessels
dragged their anchors and came into collision, by which
much damage was occasioned.

1854. I have suffered these 33 years continually
from diseased lungs, spitting of blood, liver derangement,
deafness, singing in te ears, constipation, debility, shortness
of breath, and cough, and during that period taken so much:
medicine that I can safely say I have laid out upwards of a
thousand pounds at the chemists and doctors. Indeed I was
in utter despair, and never expected to get over it, when I
was fortunate enough to become acquainted with your Revs-
lenta Arabica, which, Heaven be praised, restored me to
a state of health which I long since despaired of attaining.
My lungs, liver, stomach, head, and cars are all right, my hear•
ing perfect, and my recovery is a marvel to all may acquaint•
ances.—l am, respectfully, JAMES ROBBRTS, wood-merchant.—.
