TIE Storm OF Saturday last was ex-

in violence as it gradually shifted fron.
the east to tie south. Barns, sheds.
chinneys, fences and trees were prostrat,

suffered severely. Majestic Oaks, whici.
had brayed 'the tempests Of a hundred
years, were torn Up By tie reots, arc
dashed hcaaloag To the grsur::l. The
venerable rsar5trce, imported AID trans
planted by Governor Eadicott, A. u
1850, escaped with the loss Of half its
branches. Nearly al! the fruit was ehas
en- from The trees, the leaves of which.
as well as taase of almost every vegetable
were killed. and now appear rs i they
had been visited BY a severe frost. Fls
spray from the salt water reached An

the fruita saltisb taste, and leaving salt

Some ornamental trees have been torn
