The gale, which was so violentalong the west coast
on Thursday week, was a perfect hurricane along the-
Preach northern coast. *At Havre; particularly, it
was so tremendous, that the iehabitants rose from
their hrd', supposing it was an earthquake,. A large
ISwedish Clip foundered on the visit, and other damage
was done.

Mrs. Oratham, of Fillt-hottse, in the parish of
Gretna, daughter of the late Mr. Syne, of Redkirk,
though in her hundredth year, lately got a complete
set of teeth ; and, excepting being rather deaf. lya
all her faculties both of body and mind, in the mom
perfection. In proof that her bodily powers him net
declined, the old lady, who like the celebrated Nimes •
1' &dos, may be deemed handsome, time has sot yet
created a single furrow on her forehead.-..she spat.
forty hanks of fine linen yarn, this year, and well Arm
—so much for that industly, which is so peculiarly
characteristic of the Scotch people in every shoaled •
of life. It may be proper enough to add. that thlt.
old lady has none of that waywardness which IN

usually ascribed to very advanced ages; aa the COW
trary, she is remarkably cheerful in her mammas, ant
accommodating in disposition; and that the muntiunt
members of her family--cbitJren, grand-children, mot
great—grand-children(of which she has counted ISO, aad
mast of whom are living), pay a patrierthal reverence
to the venerable centenarian.

On Monday night, about eleven o'clock, the Scrib-
bling Mill belonging to Mr. J. and B. Woodhsail,
called Bridge-Mill, llolmfirth, took fire, and.was to-
tally destroyed with the machinery. The damage is
estimated at 1,5001 ; and we are eorry to add that
the property was not ensured. _ _

Yesterday evening an inquest was UM before Thema,

ceased had bad a family of nine children, but two
only were alive. He was blest with every donaestis
comfort, but for some time past his intellects appeared
deranged. On Monday last he 'purchased as onset
of arsenic, saying it was to destroy rats; this he put
into half a pint of ale, but was prevented from taking
the whole. The quantity, however, be had drunk,t
caused his death, and he died about four boors after-
wards; alleging as his reason for the committal of
the rash act, that he !rad had• differences with his
