The Storm of Last Monday.

This county was visited by a perfect hur.
ricane on last Monday evening. The ra in
was very heavy while large ha ilslones fell
plenty in parts. But the worst was the
wind, which in many places swept down
fences, laying paths through the forest
scattering fruit trees and playing destruc.
tion generally. Large trees were twisted of
by the roots. The damage was much greater
n other parts Of the State. In Cincinnati;
houses we're blown down, others unroo led
and several lives were lost.
