Capt. LOring, of bark j W., sBlOdgett, at
this port from St. Martins 18th ult.. confirms
the reports of the hurricane in the Islands,
ln St. Martins, on the morning of the lllh
ult, fresh gales from the northeast prevailed
and the sky was dark with masses Of heavy
clouds At p. NJ. the hurricane COM
menced, blowing the salt from the pits
against the houses, which caused the inhabi>
lants TO bar their doors and windows, and to
take refuge in such places as promised the
greatest security from the fury OF the ele-
ments. The hurricane cont inued ra ging un-
I'll midnight. when il ceased for about one
hour, and then commenced with its previous
severity, and SO continued until the next
morning, when it moderated. During its
continuance several lives were lost in the
harbor. and the shipping suffered severely.
Several buildings were destroyed. The ia
habiiants have sustained considerable loss,
and it is supposed that no salt can be made
for four or FIVE years. The depth of water
in the salt ponds. by reason Of the heavy
rains, was nine feet; the former depth was
only fourteen inches. Salt had risen in con-
sequence from 10 TO 80 cents per barrel, and
the latter price had been refused. At Augil-
la the salt is reported to be nearly all des.
tIoyed by inundation. The government at
81. Barts was obliged to contribute to the as
sistance Of the distressed. The loss at that
place is estimated at $4,000.
