Extract of a letter
"We had dreadful hurricane here last
night, commencing at ten O'Clock, and
continuing until six this morning; anC |
fear we shall have melancholy accounts
from our neIghboripg shore, and an sorry
to say that the effects have been as melan-
choly to certain extent on land as they
may be anticipated at sea; but cannot
enier into minute particulars, net having
had an opportunity of collecting them, so
as TO give them with that accuracy could
wish. Some new unfinished houses have
been lsvelled TO the ground, other houses
stripped of their roofs and lead many
chimnies. 10 part, or wholly, blown down;
md it falls 10 my lot to communicate TO
you : mos. fatal and melancholy occur.

tthe hrewer) and his wife, by the fall OF
their stack of chlnnes, have lost their
lives il the middle OF the night while in
bed. 1t appears that the fall was so sud-
den, that they had not the least chance Of
making their escape but were buried where
they lay by the ruins have not heard of
any other accident So fatal; but in our RI
yer, the loss of property has been great,
yet much OF it is in that description of yes
sells called flats, about 80 tons each, Sc
ven are destroyed, or near'y so, and two
steam packets, the lvanhoe and the Etna;
there are also some ships. &c, on shore
their names ain not able to inform you;
but, so tar as can learn, few lives have
been lost. 1t is also reported that 2 Glas
cow traders, bound from hence have been
lost. The Albion packet ship arrived yes
terday from New York; she is on shore in
Son,lS Bay, but ioing well. This sketch
lear, IS - ,ome respects imperfect, yet
it will, no doubt, fall far short of giving
any thing like catalogue of the extent
Of the misfortunes that have occurred in
consequence of this visitotiun. for the old
est inha bltants do not recollect any thing
like it in severity and duration. There
are nov many cart loads OF cotton coming
up from the shore, being part of the car

The Emperor Alexander has addressed
a circular note 10 the different allied courts
upon the subject of his disputes and ne
negotiations WITH theOttoman government.
The purport Is simply, that his Imperial
Majesty considers himself able to obtain
by war, whatever he may wish from the
Sublime Porte; but that more anxious for
the maintenance Of peace, than DESTROYS
of securing any objects of individual in
terest, he is ready to iorego all the advan-
'ages within, provided his august allies
can propose any arrang ements which may
protect the Christians of Turkey from the
prosecutions to which they have recently
been exposed.
Paris papers state that upon the receipt
of this note at The court of Vienna, Prince
Metternich went to Hanover, to concert
with the English minister the measures to
be adopted to satisfy the wishes of the
Emperor Of Russia. In this mission he
perfectly succeeded. All that was propcs-
ed by the Court of Vienna for the paci6-
cations of Europe, has received the full
assent OF the Court of London, and the
two cabinets will henceforth act in concert
for the maintenance Of the general peace
Of Europe.
