TrscuMBIA. Ala. Nov. 25.-The storm Sun
day evening was most disastrous in its effect
upon the surrounding country; houses were
unroo.ed and fences blown in every direction,
large trees were tom from the ground and
carried many yards by the storm, crushing
cabins and out-houses as they went.
After the tornado left Tuscumbia, it seems
to have 81 ent its force or risen above the

strength, it came down upon the farm Of Ben.

CUR CORRESPONDENCE.
Freq Hollow.

Mn EDFToR Having furnished you
the local history of many important
places in the State We will now give an ac-
count Of The manners and habits Of the
reopl" Of Freq Hollow.
We arrived late on Il cold, stormy night,
cared for by NJ Andrew Smeltz, whom
we afterwards learned was the most philan-
thropic gentleman in the Hollow
The next day we proceeded to visit some
of the most prominent of the professional
gentlemen and literary Institutions Our
success was not always the best in obtain
ing those results so satisfactory to the
knowlcdg, -thirstin@ tourist, rs may be at
tested by the following circumstance;
We applied tor admittance to the Orion
Literary Socable, but were rejected. As
we turned away, It member said
You might succeed hy taking large
draft of peculiar drug invariably admin
istcred in the iniatory rites"
"Who compounds this dose, SIR"
That is one of the mysteries, nexpli ca
bic to all whose faith has not grown to i'm
pilcit confidence in our ability to so temper
the draught that it will produce pain with
ont peril
Not being in the drug business on that
occasion, we lost an interior view of Orion
a loss which the curious but charv pub.
lie no doubt joins us in lamcntin@.
The Writ Literary Society, oace large,
influential and talented, died sometime
since from strngulaiion, induced, first, by
an attempt at Calculating the doctrine of
"Perttction," and, subsequently, an effort
to swallow. "Woman's Rights" 1t Is now
believed all over the Hollow that no Society
| can tackle these subjects and live
The ladies here are intelligent and cap
tivating-sensihle and pretty, which CON
stitntc about us NJ ch as any locality can
/ well lay claim To, Notwithstanding nearly
all places boast the finest women on the
/ planet
One remarkable habit ofyouthf!l Society
here IS the subject of remark beth by the
travelling and resident communities. In
/ deed, the habit has hocone Il general spcci-
atty OF the ladies and gentlemen of the
Hollow, Not TO worry you further it CON
sists in the universal rush for the Post Of
I flee every evening about five o'clock. The
explanation rs given by one TO us exclu-
sively for publication in this chronicle, is
moi Il model one Where great deal of CO.
quoting and sly court,ng is in vogue
In this place these amusements involve
a vast amount of clandestine correspon-
dence and one-cent stamps.
