From the huClrttrr Auvrrsiatr Oct. 81
The storm OF wIha aud rain Which We noticed
az prevailing On Saturday, continued ul Sunday
morning with increased violence, and wound up
in this vicinity with htiie suOw, which fell about
ten O'Clock YES tr1ay morning. The snow was
succeeded BY sunshine pich soon dissp4ied IL,
and the weai her has sucs been clear aud rather
cool We understand That considerable snow fell
in The soull ern and ~esirrn o0unties on saturday
night md Sunday morning. I y SAID that II fell
TO The depth Of eight inches iuSNisgara county. lt
was also severe m sIne plrts 81 Ontario and
Livingston countiis ,, where we understand much
damage was done 10 fruit trees Snow 10 the
depth 81 seven or eSht inches vas Jing on the
efound in Lima aud livoiif yesterday. The tele-
graphs are bsdiy damigri by the storm We are
Informed az the Noise uiCe, that some ten miles OF
the wires betv ecu this Ciiy aud Buffalo were
blown down. The wires Of the same line are also
down east ot Csnaudaigua, but 10 what extent
and in what psrucaar place we are unable to
lean. The other hines w. believe were also in
terrupted On The lakes the Storm must have been
very revere. We fear ihBt we may hear Of seri-
Gus disasters. The weather was 80 thick that IL
would be very difficult for vessels keep oil the
shore. Some thirty vessels were driven into the
mouth 81 the TIver tor shelter, and are now lyiog
there awaiting chin2e Of wind. We fear that
many more were unable To mise n safe harhor.
The Steamer Admiral, ffcm Toronto, came across
the lake on Saturday night, but being unable to
zee the lighthouse, was compelled to put back lato
the lake until daJlalt, when she came ia safely
The rise IN the HyeT, which was so much needed
by the milleTs aus manufacturers OF the city, Is
now reallz, Il. The strean has risen several feet,
and Is ALL rising. The mills on the upper races
will probably be in erruyt"d by back water.
TFrom the rtics Observer Oct AL
The acqueduct above Clinton ~ entirely pros
gafeds by the flood, and ~ course will require
some considerable tune 60 reconstruct IL, even in a
tenn orafy manner. A lock about one mile this
side Of Orskany Falls, and another two miles this
side of Clinton, are broken. At MELVILLE, two
miles east N Rome, the bank Of the canal on the
heelpath eide, has bctn washed IN. and for some
<rssuce the chsnnelis entirely filled up with earth
and logs from two mill dams 10 the neigbbcrhood,
which have also broken away. IL is estimated
that II will require from three days to week 10
repair the dsmsees so far as to admit resumption
Of navigation. lfItf Nth
