FEARFUL WHIRLwIND-A CHLD CARRIED OFF
A MILE.-Further particulars concerning the
late whirlwind in Chowan and Perquimans coun-
ties, N. O., assure us that it swept all over that
section as perfect bosom of destruction. A
poor widow, Mrs. Ashley, and child, had their
house thrown about their ears, as straws in a
hurricane. She herself is so msngled that her
life is despaired of. The child was carried to q
distance of mile, where it was found by its la
mentations The child is expected to die also.
People were reused from their slumber in the
darkness of the night to find their cottages torn
into atoms as by bomb of destruction, and
themselves glad to escape with MANNED limbs
and stripped of every comfort of life.
