TURIN, OCTOBER 31.

Our Gazette contains long accounts from Albano,
near Genoa, of the 26th, of a dreadful hurricine,
which has visited the city of Genoa and its envilout.
Torrents of rain, which continued to pour down upon
the mountains for fifteen hours, swelled the rivers to
a degree which has not been equalled for many years
The torrents carried away the bridges, trees, and
houses; and the water entered the shops at Genoa.
Even the Lazaretto of the free port, a fine building-,
which containedun immense quantity of mercliaii-
dize, could not resist the violence of the waters ;
thick and solid walls were swept away, with every
thing they contained. At noon, on the 25th, the rain
having ceased for a moment, the environs of Genoa
presented a terrible but novel sight i the inundation
had become general, and there was seen only an im-
mense lake of muddy water, with here and there the
tops of some trees rising above the surface, and about
a hundred houses, immersed up to the second story.
A great number of persons, and quantities of cattle,
are supposed to have perished. The roads being ab-
solutely impassable, the particulars of the dama:
done in the country cannot be ascertained, but it
undoubtedly immense.
The rain commenced on Thursday night ; the nio!
awful moment was before noon on Friday, when tl.c
sky became still more dark than before, the torre;:ts
of rain poured down with redoubled fury and
lence, while frequent flashes of the most vivid light-
ning, accompanied by the most frightful peals
thunder, increased the terrific sublimity of the scene.
We have received the most satisfactory accounts
of the progress of their Majesties, who arrived nz
Novara on the 29th in good health, where they we!,
received with the highest respect by the Clergy at:l
the Civil and Military Authorities, and with tit.:
greatest enthusiasm by all classes of their faithi..:l
subjects.

This forenoon we received Bayonne Papers to ti 2
sth instant. They confirm the defeat of QuEsArm's
corps, which was completely routed and dispctsel
on the 27th ult. at Los Arcos.

Letters were received this morning from Constan-
tinople and Smyrna to the 21 inst. but they do VOL
contain a word of political news. Everything ri-
mained tranquil at both places.
