NEW CASTLE, March 81. - The heavy
southeast wind of yesterday caused a
couple Of schooners to drag their anchors.
and on the arrival Of the Major Reylold,
they had driftsd ACROSS the front OF Jeffer-
sons wharf, compelling her to put in to
Gsminilis wharf. Owing to the number OF
vessels she could not get out, aud began
whistiing for tug. A large number OF our
citizens took the alarm for fire, aud the
fire department Was soon on hand. From
those who helped to pull the engine un.
derst~nd that it weighed nearly four tons
returning.
The storm Of yesterday Was without
doubt one OF the seyerest in . number OF
years, At 9, p. m the tide reached its
highest, and considerable alarm WAS felt by
the residents in the lower part of the city.
Our market was well supplied this morn
ing and sales were rapid. Eggs brought
25c, butter Soc land was exceeding scarce, }
chickens lSc pound, cabbage 80 to Sc,po.
tatoss l5c per half peck.
Notwithstanding the storm, large num-
Der Of our citizens attended the sale OF d.

day. Mr.. Joseph Yarnall intends taking

The heavy rains have increased our wa
