TRACK SUxx.-A report was in yircula-
ton this morning, says The Gold Hill
N.,1s Of last evening, that n portion OF
the Virginia and Trucies Railroad track
back OF Fort Homestead was sinking
very rapidly, and the belief seemed t.
be general that the trouble was owing to
the much-talked-of crevice close bv. An
examination of the place showed that
the report was only partially true A
fill at that point, Just below the impe-
rial waste dump, was sliding down the
hill pretty fast, and there is good reason
to fear that should the rainy weather
continue. about one hundred feet OF the
track will give way. The slide is evil
IDENTITY caused by water which settles at
that point, the crevice having nothing
more to do with it than the man in the
moon. A ditch under tho road through
which the water might escape, would
overcome tho trouble. The tract ut
that point had settled fully two feet this
and the Indications were GOOD
'or the section fetching up" in the
cavine before long. Should this occur,
40 serious delay in the traffic of tho
'oad need follow. as the gap could be
orldged in day or two.

Effects of the Late Cyclone.

NEW ORLEANS, October 6.--The Gal
weston bridges over the bay have been re-
paired, and the trains are running regu-
iarlv. In the city scarcely any traces re-
main of the effects OF the late storm.
Business is very active in all branches OF
trade. Contributions are coming on from
all sections for the sufferers, and are
being forwarded to points where they are
most needed. Galveston harbor has been
greatly benefited by the storm, it having
washed and deepened the channel over
the bars several feet. There is now from
fourteen to fifty feet of water on the bar.
Liverpool steamers now come up to the
wharf without tightening. Work on the
Santa Fe Railroad is being rapidly
pushed forward.
