we gave last week OF the hurricane, 80 deVas-
tating in its line of march through North
Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia. A
late despatch from Augusta furnishes the fol-
lowing particulars of the storm in that vicin-
ity:
The path of the tornado was from two to
six hundred yards wide. The cyclone was
cylindrical in shape, and rotated with fearful
velocity from north to south. The front
cloud was black as night, and half mile
high. The rear was illuminated by a bright
light. 1t travelled nearly due east, veering a
little to the north After devastating Camak,
the tornado seems to have divided one por-
ton going east by north, and crossing the Sa-
vannah river above and below Augusta, both
proving equally destructive, laying waste eve
rythiug in their track. Huge trees were bro.
ken like reeds. and, in some instances, carried
three quarters Of mile. The tornado was
preceded by dull, heavy roaring, as of heavy
artillery in the distance. 1t spent its greatest
fury in about three minutes. An eyewitness
says the senses were utterly deadened and ap-
palled; there was crash, roar, and the
mingling of hundred terrific and unearthly
sounds, Houses were demolished, and noble
oaks that had withstood the storms of cen.
tury were snapped in twain. A wall OF dis
tress comes up from the devastated district,
embracing eight counties in Georgia and two
or three in South Carolina. The destruction
of property is immense, and the list of killed
and wounded appalling.
Senator Johnson's First Speech.
- On the 22nd ultimo Senator johnson
made his first speech in the United States
Senate, his subject being the Louisiana ques-
ton. His appearance in the Senate hall is
thus described by the Washington Star:
He was dressed with his usual care and
neatness shair, which, though quite gray,
is still sufficiently luxuriant to cover every
part of his head, was nicely brushed. He
was dressed in black frock coat and pants
and black velvet vest, across which was sus'
pended small gold chain. He wore, as ne
did when in the White House, standing COL
lar and black atock. On his desk had been
placed half lemon ard glass OF water.
At about four minutes after noon MIR. John
son rose and silence fell upon the large au-
dience. He began speaking in low but dis
tinct tone of voice, which steadily swelled in
volume until it filled the entire chamber. For
sometime after he began speaking be made no
