TERRIFIC HAIL STORM. On Friday last,
May 2Sth, Wheeling, Va, and vicinity, was
visited by most terrific rain and hail storm
which lasted about half an hour The
wind was from the north by west Hail
stones as large as walnuts, and some nearly
as large as mans fist, fell like snowflakes
for some minutes. The damage done was
immense. Nearly all the window glass facing
the sto rm, wereshivered to atoms-the
shade trees torn up by their roots-and avn
ings and fences blown down. Many of the
treets resembled canals filed with wa
ter and hail from side to side
the drift hail lying two feet deep at
the lower end of Main street. The iron
roof of the Baltimore ard Ohio Railroad
depot was blown off entirely, ana the roll
ling mills, the Mcclure House, the Grant
House, the Catholic Church, land many 9TH
er buildings suffered severely. The destruc-
tion to vineyards in the vicinity was i'm
mense, and were injured to such an extent
that they cannot be very productive for
several years. Up the Wheeling Greek
Valley the destruction was enormous. Many
sheep and lambs were killed in the fields,
and the wheat and corn cut close to the
ground. A number of accidents to indi-
viduals are also reported, some of which are
likely to prove serious. The town of West
Liberty, twelve miles from Wheeling, isre-
ported to be nearly ruined, and that hail
stones to the depth of two feet remained ly-
ing in the streets on the day following the
storm. At Martini Ferry the hail fell to a
depth of six inches, destroying vegetables,
fruit, grapes, grain, and glass in the win
dows. The loss sustained cannot be estima-
ted. This was the most terrific storm that
ever visited Wheeling and vicinity, and will
long be remembered by those who witness
ed its power and destructive effects
