It is reported that tar from Russian ports is to be imported
duty free, and the motive of this concession is stated to be
to induce the Finland ovisfeli, laden svith that article‘i. to

to the reports:which the French Consul at Jassy has sent to
the French ,Legation at Vienna, the Russians would not

A DREADFUL HURRICANE.—OIt Saturday
last, between three and four o'clock in the afternoon, a
whirlwind, unparalleled in this part of the country, in its
fury and effects, passed for a considerable way up the
course of the river Wharf, to the northward of Bolton
Abbey, and in the immediate vicinity of Bottom Park.._
About a quarter of an hour before the hurricane, several.
claps of thunder were heard to the eastward, but the vio-
lence of the storm seemed to be at some distance, and to
pass off in a northerly direction. Heavy rain, but of short
continuance, succeeded. The writer of this account was, '
at the time, near the wooden bridge leading to the Park,
and took shelter under it ; but, apprehensive lest the iron
work of the bridge might attract the electric fluid, he re-
moved to a ttoyered teat near the entrance of the Strid
wood. Here be had rr4 been more than four or fire mi-
nutes, when a loud noise was 4;01 in the valley below,
very much like the rumbling of a number of cerrieges on a
rugged road ;—and, indeed, he first. supposed, that. it
tea occasioned by a number of carriages coming
from the Antsy visitors to the woods. None, how-
ever, appeared, and yet th; poise evidently approached
nearer and nearer. In this caee,fealiag t pnlsilleralde de-
gree of anxiety to ascertain the cause, he looked • eagerly
around ; and on glancing his eye a little to the left hand,
down the cfearo of the river, he perceived, to his no little
ourpriee, the t;,:eet or~ its hanks, at about one hundred and
fifty or two hundred yards heiew, most violently agitate&
and twisted like hitil.ritshes in all 41-..reqiane, and some
trees torn up by the roots. The phenomenon was tires
instantly explained •,—and he confesses that he was at first
seized with a momentary 'emotion of horror. A desire,
however, to observe its desolating progress soon overcame
his alarm, and determined him to 'keep his station. In
the mean time, thelitiOrielmeanoyed majestically forward'
end passed near him in terrific grandenf. 4t 64 moment
the Yoetes of the whirlwind seemed nearer ,to the opppeiPe
bank of the river, end the writer, being convinced that
qe
was in no immediate danger, roes. frost his seat, in Order
to have a more distinct view of it, and felt a etraPge
trembling or oscillating kind of motion imparted to the
.surrounding air, rather than anything like a continued
Firrent. la its progress large branches were wrenched
front the er,zze end whirled in the air like so mans' feathers,
to an incredible distance. pn its entering the Strid wood
the roaring of the-tempest, and the cratlde.g of the tree 4,
were inexpressibly awful : The guide, Whii, with a party
ef strangere, had taken shelter .in a coVered seat on en
eminence lathe soed, and hail a better opportunity of
witneisieg its progi,ese, depeeibes- the scene at this time as
altogether terrific. The collected force of the whirlwind
.tnet the oppi)sirig torrent of''th'''Wharf, and saving dam-
med up the river in a breniit,iiiiveiqd ftet "high, instanta-
neously dashed x4e aecuititilatM water, with leave! and
large branches 'nf trees i4'•iitdiecritninate confusion, into
the air, Sor 400 feet perpendicular, so that it might have
been visible at saine miles distant.' From enquiries made,
the hurricane seems to have continued its course up the
river, for about a mile, and then to have exhausted its fury
