a TERRIBLE ST0RM.
Great Loss of Life and shipping.

LONDON, November l6.
A dispatch from Kralsund, OF to.dsy's date,
reports that eighty vessels were totally wreck
ed Ia the late gale. The town was consldera-
bly, damaged BY inundstion. The fishermen
on the islands of Alngstdars and Hidden lost
all their fishing smacks and apparatus. Their
houses and contents were heavily damaged by
the high water, and nearly al the cattle on
the Island were drowned; wells were flooded
from the sea, and the Inhabitants are suffering
greatly for want OF fresh water, food and shel-
ter. The government has dispatched steam
ers laden with supplies to their relief. The
Island of Rugen has also felt the disaster
heavily. Many Of i!s fishing boats have been
destroyed, and the fields near The coast line
are flooded The loss Of life, both on the
Islands and mainland, was very heavy.
COPENHAGEN, November 16.
The storm which ragged In the north oil Eu-
rope on Wednesday and Thursday was very
disastrous throughout Denmark and On the
coast. The winds blew hurricane and rain
and snow fell necessarily. The streams rose
to an unusual height, overfowtng their banks
and iuundatlng the country lor miles around.
Great damage was done 10 seaport towns. INu-
merous marine disasters occurred. Reports of
the loss of twenty-four ships have already been
received. Half Of the town Of Pr@s.ee, in the
Island of seel and on the Baltic, was laid
waste by thu wind. The small Island of Botoe
was entirely submerged by water and every

uary, 1s72-One-fourth Of the Bust
ness Houses Destroyed.
[sPBoIAL TKLE0RAM TO THE Nywsl
ABBEvnLE, November II.
Another terrible fire has devastated Abbe
Vile. We have hardly yet recovered from
the condagration Of that night of horrors II
last January, when the Marshall House snd
Knox Range were destroyed, and now the
fire dend has again run riot 10 the fairest por
tion OF our town. The shrill cry Of 'sfre'
reused the Inhabitants at about one O'Clock
this morning. and the fire ragged until late this
afternoon. The streets have been filed with
wrecks Of burning buildings, piles of mer.
chandise r.scued from destruction, flying fam
lilies startled from their slumber by The spread
of the flames, and the day has been one Of
great excitement.
The new Courthouse is burned, and with 1t
have been destroyed all the books and records
OF the various county officers, including the
offices Of the Sheriff, Clerk Of Court and
County Commissioners. This will cause in-
caculable confusion IN the settlement of ac-
counts, the trial Of criminal cases and the ad-
justment of land boundaries. 1t lis impossible
now to give all the losses 10 detail, but the
general result may be stated as follows: One
fourth Of the finest business part o: Abbevtlls,
which was fast rising from the ashes OF last
winters confagration, has again been de-
slroyed, and the loss In buildings and mer.
chandise will not fall shert of flfty thousand
dollars. OF this amount, perhaps one-half ls
covered b. Insurance, mostly In Southern com
panies. Many Of the. losers are ruined, others
are almost covered by their insurance. The
blow Is crushing one, and 1t would almost
seem that a terrible fatality ATTENDS the old
Town ofAbbevllle. The merchants, however,
are undaunted even by this double disaster,
aud II their insurances prove good, most Of
them will rebuild. H.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TEE NEWS
COLUMBIA, Saturday, November 16.
Well defined rumors have been In circulation
here 10 day, to the effect that an application
will be made, within day or two, for an
Injunction TO restrain the Gomptrol;er-genera
from making his contemplated tax levy. The
ground Of the application will be that the pro-
posed lax s unconstitutional, for the following
reasons: In March, 1871, joint resolution
was passed by the Legislature, authorizing the
levy Of g tax to pay the expenses Of the State
government for the fiscal year 1871 This
tax was levied last wlnter. In March, 1872,
Joint resolution was passed, authorizing the
levy Of q tax to pay the expenses of the gov
ernment for the fiscal yesr commencing No
vember lst, 1871. Under this laet resolution
the comptroller levies the tax desired to be
epjolned. As the fiscal year has ended this is
treated as levying two take, for the same pur-
pose, for the same fiscal year, which is in vio-
latlon Of the constitution, end leaves no pro-
Vision for the payment Of the expenses of the
current fiscal year beginning November l,
1872. =
The blunder, which Is apparent to any one
who takes the trouble to examine the several
resolutions, lies In this, that the joint resolu-
tIon Of March, 1871, falls to say where the fiscal
year provided fer begins sDd ends, and the
money collected under the levy has. In fact,
been collected and expended for The purposes
of the year beginning November l, 1871, and
ending October 81, 1872. leaving no taxes to
be levied for the ensuing year, 1872. The joint
resolution OF March 1872 Ia also deficient, In
that Instead of providing levy 10 meet the
appropriations for the year teglnning Novem-
Der l, 1872. 1t provides for levy for the year
beginning November /, 1871; for which year q
tax has already been levied nnd collected.
The excuse is that the errors are clerical.
but the only practicable way of correcting
them 10 to await the meeting Of the Legisla-
ture and obtain their correction. Some per.
sons are cruel enough to saJ that the real OBJ.
ject of the present man@uVre is 10 compel the
Stare to run credit for another year, which
would necessitate the hypotheoation of still
more State bonds.
1t is reported to have bean said by one of
the sbles. lawyers in the stats that there can
nowhere be found any authority In law for the
levying, by the comptroller, Of any tax for
the payment Of the interest on the public
debt % SANTEE.
