Mr.. CAsADY's farm, the storm seems to have

On the Mosqni.oe, east Of this city, and
in the nsishborbood of Mr.. d. B. CLARK,
the rayages Of the storm have disheartened
many Of the farmers-especially the renters.
Some Of them are willing to sell out for q
mere song, with view to removing to some
cline where tho winds never blow, and hail
is unbeard Of. They should remember that
much more devastating storms have visited
nearly every section Of the Union this seas on,
II will never do to give up so-they should
"pick their aints and try again "-dame
fortune may smile on their efforts more
propitiously in the "good time coming"
In this city no great damage was done.
Mr.. EvEKErT's dwelling house, sustained
the loss Of n chimney, as did also Messrs.
PEGRAa, WARNER L Co.'S store. Shade
trees were blown down or broken off, in
various parts Of the town-signs took leave
of absence, going of in dis suss-yarious
outbouses were left reposius on their sides,
but beyond these slight and playful antics
Of the storm king, our citizens have nothing
TO remind them Of his visit, gave and except
their recollections Of the spectacle presented
to their minds during the pcndency q his
visitation. ....v rs--rrs-re .rsr
