rJNTIE public will be grathed to learn that the
United States Mail Steamship Company areen
abled to announce that their arrangements are now
complete for sending passengers through from
New York San Francisco and back
In the first attempts of this Company to meet
the wants Of travel to California, by providing
ships on the Pacific, in connection with their
ships from New York to Chagres, they were pre-
vailed upon at the urgent solicitation of the great
number then DESTROYS go out, TO sell tickets for
through passages from Panama IN advance, for
their ships then going round This was done
from desire to accommodate those who could
procure passages IN no other quarter, ana by
which, whatever might be the detention, they
would reach San Francisco sooner than by any
other line. Unforeseen difficulties, and the preya-
lence Of fever at Rio de Janero at the time, pre-
vented their ships from reaching Panama as soon
as anticipated, and caused detention at the 18TH
mus, which was increased by the Impotence OF
passengers in going forward, against the advice
of the Company, at an earlier day than the ship
could possibly reach Panama
These Interruptions are now all removed;
Three of the four ships Of the Company, intended
for the Pacific service, have arrived at Panama,
and several of them have performed trips to San
Francisco and back So tina, the Company are
now able TO give the public the assurance that the
voyage through from New York to San Fran
cisco, will be performed with regularity and des-
patch

- DEsrRucTryE ToRNADo.-We learn that
one of the most destructive tornadoes that
ever been witnessed in this country, passed
through the neighborhood Of Ozark, in this
county, on Sunday evening last. 1t has ut
terly destroyed between yfteen and twenty
thousand bushels of wheat, oats, &c. The
hail seemed to occupy the centre, and was
about two and one half miles wide. Every
species Of vegetation in its track was liter
ally cut to pieces. The oak and the black
jack wen are skinned and scared up as il
myriads of grape shot had been hurled
through the air. The wind extended about
two miles on each side of the sheet of hail
Tie amount Of Timber destroyed is immense
The roads are almost impossible for miles
in its track; fortunately no lives were lost
After the storm the waters swept eff a greaI
many farms. The bridge at Ozark wa:
under water to the floor; it was also con-
siderably raked up by the wind.-(Spring'
