WEDNESDAY 18TH DECEMBER 1872.

AS already anticipated by US in our
last, in which we made an appeal
to our fellow-citizens to contribute
towards alternating the great distress
caused by the terrible intimidation of the
10Th and 18th last month on the
shores of the Baltic, the Packet
which arrived here yesterday has not only
confirmed, but greatly augmented the tele-
graphic accounts which we had given in
No 81 Of this Paper according to the New
York Times of 10Th November. 1t may
be said that these accounts are almost in
terminable, the destruction and havoc is so
enormous, comprises SO many towns and
villages and tracts of land, that we, with
our limited space and the short time between
the arrival of the packet and the printing
Of the paper, are puzzled to make such a
selection as will give our readers a general
and correct impression Of the most salient
points of the extensive description. So far
as time and space will allow, we shall try
to give some of the most important infor-
nation to be found in the "Dagblad''.
Before proceeding further we must, how
ever, premise the remark that the year
given by us in No. 100 as the one in which
the waters of the Baltic to their highest,
viz 1884, was a mistake, it being the North
Sea and notthe Baltic. Theyear 1894 given
by the St. Thomas Tidende was the one to
which this last rise Of the Baltic has been
compared. From report of the Govern
ment Of Schlesvig sent to Berlin mentioned
in the Dagblad it is, however, seen that this
flood rose 25 inches above that of 1894 ;
% inches above the greatest rise since that
year, namely the high-water of 1886, and
was altogether IL feet above the usual
level. The damage in Flensborg town
and county (Amt) alone is computed at
II millions of Thalers. The rapidly with
which the water rose and fell is spoken OF
as very remarkable. At about 6 o'clock
Wednesday atternoonthe 13thit had reached
its greatest elevation, and before midnight
it had fallen 4 to 5 feet. Thursday afternoon
it had attained it's ordinary level, but rose
again considerably on Friday. During
this alternate rising and falling Of the wa
ter it continued to blow very hard from
the Northeast, although the storm had fall
len off considerably at the time of the first
ebb, and sit must therefore have been by
, 1872-12-18

its own weight that the water sank from
tho considerable hight it had attained
III the western Basin Of the Baltic into
which it had been forced by the storm.
That it rose again on Friday must be sup
posed to have been caused by the return
ing swell on Wednesday, the water follow
ing the laws Of gravity, seeking its level, "
The descriptions of the destruction COM
prise, besides Slesyig, HoIstein and the is
lands situated on their eastern coast, the is
lands Of ZERO, Langelaud, Fyen (Fionia)
Laaland, Falster, M0en, Scotland and Anna
ger, besides many smaller islands and %islets,
scattered over that part of the Baltic
among these larger ones. From every
point OF the extensive coasts OF these pla-
ces the most distressing accounts have been
received inuudation OF fields, dOwnbro-
ken cliffs, dikCs and embellishments, rocked
and smashed vessels and doWn-.umbled
houses. 1t was a terrific sight to behold
the beach when the sea had fallen: not
only was it filled with wrecks and ruins,
but the sea continually washed up more
objects of different kinds, showing
hat the inundation had caused
as great, if not greater distinctions in
other places. Furniture of all kinds, pro-
visions, horses, cattle and sheep were
being washed on land every where along
the coast. Every where the dikes erected
at immense cost were broken through and
washed away, the strongest houses disap
peared in the waves, the inhabitants being
saved in many places only by the most in
credible eXertions in boats, in other places
being swallowed up by the furious
waves. In two parishes in Laaland 26
persons persisted, and in many other places
smaller numbers How great the number
of cattle drowned has been may be imagin-
ed from the one fact that on the eastern
shore of the small island of Langeland so
many carcasses of these drIfted on shore
that up to the 23rd the hides Of them had
been sold to a value of 500 Rd. In many
places the mould has been completely
washed away from the fields Cor covered
with a thick layer Of sand, sand every
where the winter-corn has been destroyed.
That the disasters at sea should be as
great as those on land, was to be expected
Every where wrecks are seen !; in the Bay
of Presto SO are mentioned from M0en
SO others are reported, with few exceptions
large vessels from 300 to $50 tons burden.
A great many of the vessels are in such a
state that it is impossible to find out
either their names or homes of others the
crews have been saved, destitute of every
thing. In the island of M6en alone there

COLONIAL COUNCIL
18th December 1872.

The Draft of Ordinance on Steam Com

ton or remonstrance from burghers and
residents in Frederiksteds District against
the rules for the Steamers voyages, by
which Frederiksted would be deprived Of

were several hundred seaman ofaII nations,
principally EngIishmen, Dutchmen, Swedes
and Norwegians. By degrees as they are
proyi led with the most necessary they
leave for their homes.
Having thus, in a very cur3ory manner,
depicted some of the destruction and ha-
VOC, it remains to take a brief survey of the
measures adopted to relieve some of the
distress. The Dagblad complains in
strong terms Of the want of activity on the
part of the Ministers, principally those
of war aud the navy, who can dispose
over u great labour-torCc which might be
of the greatest utility in the first moments
to prevent the consequences of the great
accumulation of purified carcasses; but
that private charity, always ready to assist
strangers, should stand back in this case
where the help was required at home, was
not to be expected, and vet it will no doubt
astonish many to see the amounts for
which even the less opuIent have subscrib-
ed. Besides that the inhabitants of the is
lands, who from the situation of their pro-
perties have been spared from the inunda-
ton, have opened their houses to the home-
less, so that a single farm has received
more than one hundred of these, they have
FASTENED with money and goods to the as
~sistance of the sufferers and, while the
Capital has taken the lead in contributing
large amounts, there is no part of the
country that has not so contributed, either
through committees having been formed,
or through the editors of all the papers in
the country. While the financial institu-
tions of the country and the wealthy
among the inhabitants contribute muniti-
Gently, as f. in. the Savings Bank of
Copenhagen and the CIassenske Fidei-
commis,' each 10000 Rd., and all the
leading merchants each 1000 Rd. and more,
there is not a Savings Bank in the small
Ter towns, not n servant girl who have not
contributed their mite. The poorest town
IN the kingdom, Skagen, has contributed
40 Rd. Nor has the Royal Family kept
back we observe the Crown Prince on
the list for 1000 Rd. the Crown-Princess
for 500 Rd. The latter along with the
Princess Thyra has organized a bazaar for
which contributions are being collected by
some of the first ladies in the King
dom Every where special concerts,
representations, lectures etc. are being
held Tor the benefit of the sufferers. In
the churches also collections are being
made, the representation ofall the Bishops
to that effect having received the Royal
sanction. In Copenhagen a Central Com
mittee has been formed which up to the
28th of November had collected about
100000 Rd. another for the supply of
garments, and still another consisting of
dealers in furniture, and ~joiners for the sup
ply of articles of furniture etc. which are
transported gratuitously by steamers
and railways. In Stockholm there
was, up to the 25 of November, collected
more than 10000 Rd. Swedish, and His
Majesty King Oscar had contributed 1000
Rd. through the Swedish Embassy.
