HURRICANE IN CUBA.-A diSnatch from
Havana dated Oct. l6. says. On Friday night
there was q severe hurricane in the bay but
slight damage was done, however, to vessels
and to property in the city. In the country
growing cane and other crops were damaged
\ hurricane has also occurred at Matapzas,
ton between that place and Havana was inter-
rupted until to day. An extraordinary rise Of
the two rivers inundated the Intervening
ground, where the railway depots were located.
The depots trains OF passengers and houses
to have been lost. The damage to property
was enormous.
Another despatch from Havana has the
following: The effects Of the hurricane on
the Island are much worse than was at first
supposed. The disasters at Matanzls are
confirmed, but no particulars have been re
ceived CardenaS also suffered much from the
hurricane on Friday. The lower part Of the
city was laid waste. The interior Of the Island
back of Cardenas and MataDzas is desoated-
Cane being somewhat backward this season,
sustained less damage than other crops. The
hurricane was the severest which has visited
this Island within a century.
The following is q list of the total wrecks at
Matanzas: Brig Baxter, from New York
bark Hunt from Portland brig Charles f.,
OF Portland, aud the schooner Edwin, of
Bridgeport.
The cooperage and stock 10 the warehouses
in Matanzas were all destroyed. The Influx of
the SEA caused great rise 10 the rivers, and
when the sea receded everything was swept
away by the returning Hood.
