thing more effective must be done some
more lastirg help must be rendered to the
unfortunate sufferers.
What is to be done2 Our public
funds are exhausted /; the Colonial Trea-
aury has no money. Everybody feels as
sured that the Government will do what
1t can under the trying circumstances ;
every sufferer waits patiently, because,
he feels confident of the Governments
psternal care, be it even of necessity very
scantily meeted out. Past experience
warrants their confidence. But some
thing else and more is required. The
means available for keeping up our stand
ing NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. which total ruin
would be ineVltable-will not suffice to
assist planters under the present increased
emergency, and to help town-suferers.
But let every one exert himself to do
what he can j; let the sufferers themselves
commence let them collect their remnants
and see what is wanted to get up their
little buildings let others who are less
badIy-of contribute their mite to assist in
getting what is still wanting, and let the
Public do its part. Merchants and dealers in
lumber should reduce their charges.-And
let o Relief Committee be appointed, count
ing in its midst some clever competent
men, able to judge of building matters,
and let them, each in his individual quar-
ter, superintend the re-crection of build
ings belonging to those who are unable to
help themselves, so that after investiga-
ting the remains of the demolished build
ings, the Committee or the individual
Member charged Herewith assigns the
requisite lumber and the amount Of money
for workmen's wages. The means for
this purpose to be obtained by sums raised
by whatever aid can be spared from the
public funds and by private subscription.
Place the above before your readers ; if
it should even only have the effect of call,
ing forth sUne. better idea, | should be
happy.

THE Il RRICAN B
OF THE 18TH AND 18TH INSTANT
From the Sc Thome ITdH@de Of Ian Sept

st. Thomas is once more brought to
the front by one OF those distressful occur
Tences-a HURRICANE. On Wednesday
morning, from between halEpast twelve
to five o'clock, we were visited by one Of
those phenomena, which has, in conso.
nance with its character, wrought a good
deal of mischief, We are, however, happy
to state that the damage amongst the
shipping has not been as serious as that
Of Iceland on shore, not as great as
that of 1871. Up to half past nine o'clock
on Tuesday evening there was no move
ment here of the barometer indicating any
thing like so severe q storm there were,
however, on account of a telegram, which
reached here in the afternoon from st.
Kits, and from the short pufs OF a North
Easterly wind blowing at the time, some
apprehensions felt by a few persons, but
there was no general uneasy feeling until
later in the evening when kilograms from
st. Kits and Antigua announced a con-
Einued fall Of the Barometer with suspi-
cious weather. AS alarming as these
were. the Prospects of a Hurricane with
US were still small, and the feeling of any
immediate danger began to wear away.
at ten o'clock in the evening the Barome-
ter here gave its first indication of the
coming storm /; the falling was gradual
until 2 O'Clock on Wednesday morning,
when it had reached 1870 (Aneroid)
from that hour to half-past four the fall
was faster, when it marked 29'45 the
wind blowing from a NE. direction. From
this time it commenced to rise rapidly.
From 4 TO o'clock the violence Of the
Hurricane was terrific, accompanied by
heavy rain and lightning......
One of the most distressing of the marine
disasters, is the total loss of the American
barquentine LeuG Berry, Captain Turner,
with all hands. No one can tell what has
become of this vessel /; not q yestige of her
bss been found, and, up to the present mo-

making another attempt in which thew

he should be taken to the hospital. They
