TIE STORM.
Damages Ofer on Mississippi Sound
One Iegro Killed at Biloxi.

Damages Ofer ON MtSS1Ss1pp1 Sound
One Iegro Killed at Biloxi.
For the lad twelve hours the wind has been
blowing gle from the southeast. The rain
fell In torrents nearly all Thursday night,
and yestaday there was every appearance of
regularold- fashioned eqninoxiaI storm.
So farthere has been but little damage In
the city6ther than few fences blown down,
but atsouth Pass 1t has been blowing Il
"snortr," aud the telegraph lines are blown
down
Ovf on the Mississippi Sound considerable
damage has been done. At Biloxi the large
bui ding on the camp meeting ground was
blown down, killing one negro aud wounding
ors child, at Mississippi City, it is said
most OF the bath-houses have been destroyed.
It Bay st. Louis the water had risen three
eet during the day, and fears were enter
lGained for the ath-houSeS and whnrves as
the storm was on the increase.
The direction OF the wind Is forcing the
water though the Rigoets into Lake Pont-
chartrain, and causing rise In the bayous
and canals.
Surveyor Brown has all his force and thief force
OF the Department of improvements well in
hand, and is watching the levees closely There
Is not much danger OF u break unless the wind
should suddenly shift to the northWdrd, and
blow steadily for some time, in which event
the water would be backed up, and the strain
on the levees would be greater.
So far the storm in and around the city
be seems to less severe than Is usual. Possibly
we are catching the tail end of the terrific
cyclone that recently created such havoc on
the Atlantic coast.
During the height Of the blow yesterday,
large numbers Of sea guIsand other sea birds
were swept over the city. They came from
the direction Of the Gulf, and over in the
direction of Lake Pontchartran. They
seemed to be struggling against the wind as
their heads were point d in the direction from
which theycam and their wings were NOV
ing rapidly.

BOARD OF HEALTH.

The Vanguard Must Stick it Out a.
| Quarantine.
There was special meeting of this body
yesterday at 80 O'Clock p. m.
The letters Of Messfs. Forstall's Sons ant
Mr.. De Fonblanque. in relation to the steam
ship Vanguard, from Bordeaux, and now a
the Quarantine Station, were read.
| Capt. Cell, master of the Vanguard. was
present and gave q full account Of bis trip
| showing that while he had stopped at the
| ports Of POrt-auP Prince, Kingston, Vera Cruz
Tampico and Brazos, he had taken the utmost
precaution to prevent any connection with
| the shore.
After listening to his very full and frank
statement, Mr.. Booth offered the following
resolution:
ResOtrcd, That the experience had in the
case Of the Lucy 2. Miller is itself an admo-
milton not to repeat the concession, and as it
has been already refused, for the Same reason,
to the g. ". Lord, It cannot be granted to the
Vanguard.
Mr.. Booth spoke to his resolution, and said
that the responsibility resting upon the
board was very great and that for one, he
was not willing to run the risk Involved in
permitting this ship to come up until she had
undergone the regular quarantine detention
1t was better that the ship should suffer de-
tentiOn and even pecuniary loss than that the
board. by mistaken act Of kindness, should
loopardlze the lives, not only Of the people of
this city, or OF this State but Of the entire
Mississippi valley.
DR.. fancy argued in favor Of permitting
the ship to come up. He did not believe It
possible for the fever to be developed here, no
matter how many germs were brought ill.,
Ihe atmospheric conditions were such as to
preclude the spread of the disease and the
germs would simply die.
The Vanguard had visited the infected
ports OF Vera Cruz and Tampico during q
rainy season, and at such time it was not pos
sibe for the ship to have become infected,
because rain beats down the germ or miasm.
which Is only active during hot and dry
weather. He thought the vessel more In dan
ger OF being infected while lying at the quar-
antine station than when lying four lniles
from Vera Cruz, or one mile from Tampico.
Dr. Schuppet sustained Mr. Booth, and
Thought it would be most unwise to permit
the ship to come up.
Booth was carried. Yeas-Booth, Schuppert
and Albrecht. Nay-Dr. fancy.
Capt. Gel remarked that it was very
strange that the board were so rigorous with
him, when he knew there were people in the
city now who had left Kingston since he had.
and had, after arriving ia the river, gone to
Pensacola and come thence via Mobile to this
port.
The office Of the Board Of Health Is located
directly on the street nthe ground floor, and
most impossible for Anything that is said hv |
by the members in debate to be heard |
Hence much that Is Esaid is lost and the
members frequently SEP themselves credited
u the papers with idSas and opinions thev
we're not conscious Of entertaining Of hay
% motion the board adjourned.

there was no little misgiving that he would not
