ESPECIAL DISPATCHES TO THE GAZETTE.
The Storm at Tusculnbia.

New YORK, Nov Pa dispatch from
Tuscumbia last night says the storm Sunday
evening was most disastrous 10 Its effects
upon the surrounding country. Houses were
unrooted aud fences blown down 10 every dlrec
too. Large trees were torn from the grJund
and carried many yards by the storm, crushing
cabins and out houses as they weot. After the
tornado left Tuscumbia it seems to have spent
its force or risen above the houses; then having
apparently gained new strength it came down
upon the farm of Benz. Wilson, six miles from
here, and totally destroyed his residence, corn
crib aud Gin house. 1t then passed up the
stream Known as Pond Greek leveliiug thous-
ands of forest trees. Some miles further on
The farm house and out buildings of Wilkes
Davidson, a we'll known ciuzen,were destroyed,
as was also the house Of Ira Ja.mau, an extern
sive farmer Scores of negro cabins were blown
down and two black men killed. Several others
were slightly wounded. The loss to Iuscum-
bia is fully as much as at first reported: Among
the property destroyed was two grlst mills
which supplied the town with meal and the
want of this article of food Is beginning to be
seriously felt. Many of the houses that were
not blown entirely down have been rendered
uuft for habitaion, ADD yearly every building
