THE STORM

Me fine packet-ship Neva, which dragged
her anchors in the river during the severe gale last week,
and was brought up against the Huskisson Dock wall, has
been placed in that dock, where it has been ascertained
that she has not suffered material damage. During the
excitement of the night, it was apprehended that a number
of the passengers, in endeavouring to jump ashore, were
drowned, but when the muster-roll was called over not one
was missing. They have since been transhipped to the
Blanche. by the agents of the Neva, Messrs. Pilkington and
Wilson, who have behaved in the most praisworthy man-
ner to the passaigers
