VIOLENT GALE OF WIND.

We have seen letter fromC c. Hart, esq,
to gentleman in this city, dated Mobile,
July 81, which says, We have experienced
one of the severest gales of wind ever ielt
in this part of the country. 1t commenced
on Tuesday last, and has not ceased YET
Holman's s. Gunnison's two wharves re-
ceiyed the most injury. Que is entirely
washed away, and the other partly des-
troyed. The water is into Stewart sstore'
and boats are sailing about the town in eve
ry direction.
A letter from Blskely, dated the 'st oil
August, which we have also seen, states
that the gale had ceased, and although the
water came up 10 the stores IN the waarves
in that place, yet the damage sustained
was but trillng.

were entirely lost; several others have
met similar fate. or have been sunk
The officers on board the Firebrand were

schooner Thomas Shields was also cap
sized at the bay OF St. Louis, and all the

most of them blown down. The extent of
