We begin 10 receive details OF the storm through the
NALL. II appears that it commenced at the north
east and veered round 70 north, northwest, west and
southwest. The Wilmington n. c. Herald of Mer-
day furnishes the annexed account of the loss of many
vessels, ard the destruction OF property in that VI
cinity:
Immense quantities of rain fell during Friday, Sat
urday and yesterday, and, "a consequence, the
water courses ponds creeks &C., were swollen 10 an
flows, carrying away of bridges, &c.
Here in town. the effects Of the storm are apparent
in the number Of trees ard Of branches uprooted,
twisted OFF and sea tered about the different streets.
Many fences have been blown do vi, and come s1yht
damage done 10 houses.
The steamer Spray left for Sm.hville At her usual
hour Saturday afternoon, bat such the ioence OF
the gale that che forced upon the beach below
OIton, where she remained III safety until yesterday
afternoon, when she was towed of by the steamer
Henrietta.
The train from the north due in the evening Of the
same day. arrived at about the usual hour, but could
not reach the shed where passengers ale landed IN
consequence Of heavy drifts of sand near the track on
the tide of the hill Just beyond the depot buildings.
The immense rains swept large quantities OF sand over
the rails, and tie passage Of the cars was blocked.
Iha passengers by this train remained where they
were during he night, aud in the morning, when the
violence of the storm haG abated, left their temporary
hotel for more comfortable quarters.
On the sea coast the gee was terribly severe.
Down at WIichtsvile Sound the waters Of the sea
swept over the different sand banks and marshes,
covering them all. The tide, course rose to very
unusual hight and swept away Ike chat, several OF
the bathing ard beat houses of the resident inhsbit
ants Boats were washed out of these later aad
landed high on the shore. Trees and fences were
blown down. The Ocean House. situated on the
banks next to the sea- that spot rendered famous the
scere Of the Esqumaux was carried of by the reent-
less waves and We suppose the fragments thereof if not
aLdeo OF distant points are drifting about on voyages
of discovery This Ocean House, now that it Is gone,
Northern papers fancied, but small tenement Of
wood, having room and no mere.
The damage to the shipping on the coast, We fear
hae been very extensive. The loss of the bark Colin
here is especially regretted. She had Just reached
the bar on her homeward bound trip from England,
and in endeavOug to ride out the gale, parted chains
and went ashore.
The gale does not seem from accounts received to
have extended far into the interior. Passengers by
the Northern train felt but little Of the storm north of
GoldsborO; and by the Southern train, about Fair
Bluff seems 10 have been its limits.
by the boats from Fayetteville we learn that the
effects Of the blow were not experienced severely
above Elizabeth Below this point the low ground
clC ps of corn, &C., are seriously Injured
We cannot tell what damage the lice crop has sus-
tanned, but hope that it is but slight.
