The storm, In this Vicinity


The rain storm which set in Saturday after
noon, continued very steadily till yesterday
afternoon. The storm was an unusual one for
this time of year, a vast amount Of rain hav-
ing fallen. and during Monday night and yes
terday forenoon a severe gale prevailing. The
storm seems to have been pretty general all
along the coast from New Jersey.
We do not hear of any great damage being
done in this vicinity, but no doubt the farm
ers will suffer to some extent, as in many
localities corn has been laid PROSTATE, fruit
trees have been roughly handled and deprived
of much of their loads, and some who had
not vet gathered all their grain will have it
about destroyed.
The streets about the city were more or
less washed and quilted out but not to any
great extent. The new reservoir on Bridge
street 10 filed with water hut it will probably
stand the pressure brought to bear upon it.
One Of the coal bins in the rear of the Jour
nal ofice, belonging to John DuIon was un-
dermined by stream of water, and cavcd in,
so that several tons of coal were swept along
the cOlrse of the brook and some of it even
going into die river.
The river has risen very perceptiby and
is said to be running over the dam II inches
higher than before the storm. Many logs are
coming down and no doubt more will follow
The wind came from the northeast Monday
night. but early in the morning vccred to the
