A TEMPEST AM TORRENT.
The Heaviest Rain Storm Of Seventeen
Years-The City Drenched for Thirty
six IIours-Ehects on the shipping and
tie Crops.

This city has been visited during the past
forty.eight hours with the most violent storm
that is recorded In the history OF many years. IL
is believed that at no time since tle tenpes' ~
1854 that drove the waters OF the haroof over 'ne
Battery wall submerging East Bay anu aimos'
obllterating many Of the smaaer sianos' haS
such volume OF water been poured do"n upon
the city, The storm was steady, persistent tor'
rant for thirty.six hours, and there was nardly
roof In the city that did not be-
tray its trust and admit a dripping sprinkle OF
rain. and hardly cellar that did not contain at
the end OF the torrent some inches OF water. In
some portions Of the city there were little hoods,
causing no little inconvenience to the inhaoitan'
of lower q oors, and no small annoyance to the
pedestrian. In Concord street, IN Rottenooro',
the mud and rain was almost knee-deep, and IN
Dunca1 street, where there isa little declVlty,
terminating in hole, quite an inundatioh was
caused. In hygienic point OF view, the rain and
the gale were probably the best things that could
have happened to the city. The former washed
and drenched the streets Of the rotting filth that
the eriminaIiy careless streetcleaners had left to
tester In the sun, and the wind, sweeping through
the city disinfected its streets and alleys as no
DrecantlUn5 OIL tue uSdlLu dutuoIAtlco Soulu ao'
done, dispering the mephitic vapors, and enforc.
ing a compulsory ventilation in shanties and
rookeries, to which such sanitary precautions had
long been Strangers.
The storm crept gradually up the South Atlantic
coast and broke In al its fury upon Charleston on
Friday afternoon. The weather all day had been an
undecided drizzle 1tat6P NJ. the rain began TO
fall In torrents, and from that time until about
seven O'Clock yesterday morning there was very
little intermission In the storm. The amount OF
rain that fell in that period Of thirty six hours
was s53 inches, which is within two inches o. the
whole quantity OF rain during the three months
from May 1st 10 August lst OF this year, ana Is
more than twice as much Us fell during the whole
month OF August, 1870. Tee storm wss also ac'
companied By q high wind, blowing at first from
the east, and then veering 20 the northeast and
north, where It remained last night. The velocity
of the wind lin miles per hour during the forty
eight hours from P. N. OF Friday to O'Clock
last night and the height Of the barometer and the
relative humidity Of the atmosphere during the
same period, are shown by the following table:

The CAROLINA INDEPENDENT BOAT CLUB
The new race boat ordered By this enterprising
club from Ingersol, New York, arrived In the
steamship South Carolina yesterday afternoon.
The boat s built on similar model to that Of the
Palmetto Regatta Club, the only difference being
that the latter Is but twenty-five feet long, while
the former is thirty. Owing to the heavy storm
which prevailed during the trip OF the South Caro-
lima, much anxiety was expressed BY the men,
bers OF the club lest their boat should be Injured,
and on the arrival Of the ship The elegant little
craft underwent rigid examination. 1t was
found that two timbers had been severely strain
ed in one place, and the boat itself twisted so that
she did not lay even along the deck on her keel.
Under these circumstances, the toat was not re-
ceiyed, and the matter will be Investigated to-
day.
