DREADFUL HURRICANE%

ABERDEEN, OCT. 27.—0 n Saturday and 5; IV
day last, we were visited with one of the I.°lo
tremendous gales which have been experience"se,
this coast for many years. It Commenced °P. if
turday afternoon, and continued during that nigW,
and till late on Sunday night, blowing fron'
and N.N.W. in squalls of unexampled &len:et
accompanied with snow and sleet ; and, we re'rot
to learn, has been productive of most dissst:'it,
consequences to the shipping, but more Parr‘lethis
lady along the coast. From the direction °''ht
storm, time shores of the Moray Frith have ch'
I suffered, the various creeks and hat boars ft':
Buckie to Kitinaird's Head presenting one cootrtl,l
cued scene of devastation ; among which we 901
grieved to mention, that the new harboorij •
Banff and Maeduff have sustained incalculable le
[nage. The works at Macduff, to which the
and patriotic proprietor had contributed sn
ly, are nearly destroyed. At Redbyth, reCO c
o
Port knockie, Bockie, and Ilottenslough,
quawities of herrings and other propelli t;e3
been carried off, and many fishing-boats tilsw4

Industry was put ashore and has become a "',ll
