TORFOLA.
The Accounts Of the Hurricane greatly
Exaggerated.

BY the Atlantic Cable.l
LONDON, November 1S.-The Colonial
Office not having received any psrticu-
lars Of the alleged sinking of the island
OF TOrtOla and drowning of 10000 people,
in answer to kilograms sent to officials in
the West Indies, the story is generally
discredited here, or at least believed TO
be greatly exaggerated.
By the Gulf Cable.l
HAVANA, November 1S.-Neither the
British Consul nor any other party has
received any particulars of the alleged
sinking of the island of Tortola. There
are only rumors Of serious disaster by
the hurricane of the 18th, but no definite
facts. The reports are evidently greatly
exaggerated.
NEW YORK, November 1S-A private
letter from Vortola, written on the lst
inst, has been received in this city,
making q brief reference to the hurricane
which swept over the island on the 29th
of October. 1t makes no mention of a
general loss of lives. The writer states,
however, that the family Of Sinclair
Brsyant, resident magistrate at Road
town, as the settlement at the harbOr is
called, were drowned, and also that dur
ing the storm a fearful fire broke out,
which destroyed many houses.

I'VE do not now who Is the author OF this

the fourth line Of the fourth verseI
From the 81 James MsgazineJ
THE AUTUMN OF THE HEART.
The corn bows its head to the sickle,
The nightingale's murmur Is hashed,
kain-teaTs from the arbutus trickle,
Beech-fruits in the forest lie crushed.
We have fought, but the battle Is ending;
We are wounded and sick from the tight;
Blu shadows around usdeBceuding
Breathe kisses OF night.
We have Journeyed, not heediDgour danger,
Cried In Wild duplication above
We have loved tn our eyes lost their anger,
And hearts became sleepy with love.
Red roses are dying which wTeaihed US
We rs stamped With the iron that sears;
Dead love IN compassion bequeathed as
Us relic or tears
Ah,m mel but the summer was pleasant
Shall we die and lie dreaming again?
| Would we yield the dull days OF the present
For an hour OF tue past and rs pain?
Do We hunger for ki.ses that stung usf
Or long Tor the lips that have He'd
Must they s,oop for the gauntlet they We hung
Weep Creep to their sidee
We cringe to these sowers Of sorrow;
We cry for a bhghted care
We dean for a night; on the morrow
We gather the Sears Of despair.
We bow TO our grief and prlyatiOn
We ray for the pleasures that clOy;
Our work Is TO build ths foundation
They love 70 destroy.
Oh, women with hearts trimming over
With passions we never can feel,
The weird y weak 10 discover
The mystical love you conceal.
Our sorrow, not ours the reprOytng.
Your triumph, aud ours toe defeat;
Our lives are made bitter from loving,
While yours is the sweet.
