Paris papers OF the 29tE and 30th OF

An article from Hamburg, dated Aug.

arrived to day, and it is affirmed that its
delay is occasioned by terrible riot
which has broken out there against the
Jews, who, it is reported, are all massa-

From the Providence Or. l. American.

From AtTicG.-Captain Hailowell, Of
the brig Richard, recently arrived at this
port, from the coast of Africa, informs,
that he witnessed, while at Sierra Leone,
one of those tornadoes 10 which the Afri-
can Coast is exposed, for nearly six
months I'D the year. Their violence and
the frequency OF their occurrence are de-
termined by the state of the atmosphere.
Ten or twelve Of them are generally ex-
perienced at Sierra Leone, in the course
of a year.-The precursors and charac-
teristics of these tornadoes are worthy OF
phIlosophic investigation. The sky is
clear--a perfect calm has prevailed for
several hours-and the air becomes OPP
pressive; when suddenly in the most ele-
waited region OF the atmosphere appears, as
the indication Of tornado, little round
white cloud-not exceeding or 6 feet in
diameter, and which seems to be per-
fectly motionless. The air becomes gra.
dually agitated and acquires circular
motion. The leaves and plants, with
which the land is always covered, raised
by the force Of the air several feet from
their bed, keep necessarily revolving
around the same spot, TO the infinite diver
sion OF the natives, who amuse themselves
with this rotary motion. The little
cloud, which portended the approach Of
the tornado, having increased in size, in-
sensibly descends to the lower region o.
the visible horizon. The whislwind now
increases in vioIence-and soon become.
