Adams Express Company, that a tornado passed
over Atlanta, about two O'Clock Thursday after
noon. tearing the roofs off of the State road depot
and other buildings. uprOoung trees. tearing down
awnings, and doing considerable amount of damage
to property in and around the city. During the
storm the Thermometer fell twenty degrees.
The Captain elso informs Us that on the Georgia
railroad. this side of Atlanta he observed several
large trees blown down, and moved some distance
from their original position. 1t is feared that the
storm was much more severe in the country above
Atlanta, aud great damage to the fruit trees is ap-
pretended. There no rain accompanving the
