THE GULF CYCLONE.
Additional Particulars of the Disas,


Press dispatches from Galveston and
other points along the Gulf coast OF Tex
as give additional details of the loss OF
life and destruction of property by the
recent cyclone. We CLEAN the following
particulars
The town of Matagorda was washed
away, only four houses being left stand
ing, and not a single citizen of the town
has escaped serious injury to his proper
ty. Many of them are entirely houseless
without the necessaries of life, or means
to build shelter over their heads. In
Kinney's Prairie II persons were lost
and their property all destroyed. On
the upper peninsula 20 persons We're
swept into the gulf and drowned. At
the town of Columbia 20 houses were
blown down ; no lives reported lost.
One man was killed Mt Chenango by a
falling tree. Many plantations have
been greatly damaged, and some literally
torn to pieces. gar-houses, gin-hous-
es, fences and everything are partly or
wholly blown down. The great losses
cannot be correctly reported.
The Galveston N'eiOs has the following
particulars from the mouth of the Brazos
river:
The number of persons known TO have
lost their lives between the peninsula and
Bernard are fifty-seven. Among them
are Mrs. Sargent, old man Sargent, all
of Forester's family, all of the Mltchells,
Billy McNeils wife and three children,
Mrs. Eggart and two children. Seven OF
Stephen Winstead's family were lost,
himself, Miss Susie, Annie and johnny
being saved. Samuel Useless wife and
two children, all of old man Davis fam
ily, and one of the children of William
Austin were also lost. Judge Cox and
his family spent the night of Thursday
in the trees. Old Mrs. Davis and one OF
the Winstead children were lost. The
others at the mouth managed to save
themselves. People from the other side
of the river got ON Capt. Louis Devote's
boat. Winnie Winstead's body was
found in Hawkins Prairie, old Mrs.
Daniels at Joel Bryan's, some of the
Davis family in the Gulf Prairie, and
others at the mouth of the river.
Near the mouth of Trinity river,
house occupied by negroes was swept
away. There were nine OF the negroes,
and eight of the number were drowned.
After remaining in the trees from ten to
fifteen hours, one of them, becoming
perfectly crazy from fright, tore the

A Man of N0ye.

On Monday forenoon number of trot-
ters were being exercised at the driving
park, among them Effie Deans, driven
by the well-known horse raiser, Alden
Goldsmith. The horses were trotting at
lively pace, and were all punched in q
heap, when one of Effies reins broke,
and Goldsmith toppled over backward,
and every spectator expected to see him
drop from the sulky and be mangled by
the feet of the crowd of horses behind.
This tragedy was prevented, however, for
Goldsmith, whose feet caught in the
foot rests of the thills, recovered him
self, and then gave an exhibition of nerve
that was most thrilling. The mare, re-
leased from the restraint of the taut
reins, broke into run and flew ahead
like the wind, leaving all of the others
behind. While she was going at this
rate Goldsmith crawled over her back
until by reaching forward he could get
hold of the snaffie of the bit, and then,
lying upon her neck, he brought her up
with n sudden pull that carried her al
most perpendicularly in the air. He was
heartily applauded by all who witnessed
the daring deed.-Kingston On. ~

FINANCE AND TRADE.
Weekly Review of the Chicago Market.

Weekly Rsview of the Chicago Market.
FINANCIAL
There il fair demand for currency from
country banks for moving crops, and fair
local movement. Interest rates quotable at
6@10 per cent, according to time and security.
Government bonds firm, and moderate trade
was reported.
BREADSTUFFS.
The grain market attracted a large degree of
attention from spectators during the past
week, and liberal trading was reported. The
markets however, have been more or less un-
settled and fluctuations were quite frequent
and at a rather wide range. Spring wheat was
firmer, and the closing quotations show All ave-
rage advance of about SC per bu. The corn
market was lower for immediate delivery but
the longer futures-November and seller the
year-were strong and higher. Cash oats sold
up to 3S16d40c on Thursday, the market for
September being fairly cornered.' Subse-
quently decline of &c was sustained and closed
easy. Rye and barley were dull and lower all
round.
The following table shows the prices current
at the opening and at the close OF the past
week:
