 Severe storm Along the Coast-Remark-
 able Weather for the Season.
 LONDON, Oct GA heavy gale has pre- vailed on the coast of England, with hail, snow and floods of rain. The Grampian Hills are covered with snow to their base. The snow storm is remarkable for it's sever ity at such an early period as the first days in October. Rain has fallen in heavy torrents throughout the midland counties, causing tre- mendous floods in various districts. The rivers and tributaries are overfowing their banks into the adjacent meadows. The roads are so much under water that traffic is entirely suspended. Serious results are anticipated from the heavy gale from the southeast that prevailed at Yarmouth last night Several casualties to fishing vessels have already been reported Eighty feet of the pier works has been destroyed by the force of the heavy sea breaking on it. The rivers Don and Rothers are overfiowing to an alarming ex- tent, and hundreds of acres are already sub- merged and the flood is extending A severe gale ragged over Chorley yesterday. doing much damage to property. Trees were dragged'up by their roots and states scat tered in all directions. A girl was blown under carriage, the wheel of which passed over her head, killing her instantly. The gales increased in force along the coasts last evening.

An Adjourned Meeting.

Proposition to Visit Hartford.
 The meeting of the Union veterans called at the Atheneum last evening, at which Major Tibbitts, of New London, was to speak, did not take place owing to the small number in attendance. At S:15 Colonel George M. White came on to the stage and announced that owing to the attractions on the street and the fact that some had understood that the meeting would be held in Loomis' Temple of Music, the attendance at this meeting was so small that 1t was deemed advisable to ad- journ to some future time.
 After the adjournment of the public meet held and the following resolutions were adopted
 Whereas, Announcement has been made that our Commander-in- Chief, General~Ulys- ses s. Grant, will visit Hartford on the 18th of this month, and
 Whereas, Notice has been given by Gen eral l.. A. Dickinson, commanding the De- partment of Connecticut, that the veterans of this State will be invited to avail them selves of this opportunity to greet once more their old commander, and
 Whereas, General Frank D. Sloat con- mander of the New Haven district, has been called from home by business which will oc- cupy his time for several days and make it impossible for him to take the initiative in this matter; therefore,
 Resolved, That General E. s. Greeley, Captain David Munson and Col. P. B. Buck ingham, together with the Colonel and Adju- tant of this organization, be appointed a com mittee to determine whether the Union Vet erans' Union of New Haven shall make an excursion to Hartford on this occasion, and that this committee be empowered to make all the arrangements for such an excursion, and to report the same at special meeting of the Union, to be held at Exchange Hall on Saturday evening next.

The Waterbury Fire.

A Spark From MrEne causes
 The fire at the Holmes, Booth & Hayden establishment in Waterbury Tuesday was caused by sparks from the muff1es started among the heavy beams in the muffie room of the rolling mill, the main building of the concern. It was extinguished without much difficulty, and not vestige was supposed to remain, but spark remained and kndled the fiery element into almost uncomfortable fury. The fire burst into view at o'clock, about an hour after work ceased for the day.
 The fire is the most destructive that has ever visited Waterbury and had it not been a still evening Holmes, Booth & Hayden's en- tire works would no doubt now be a mass of ruins. The burned portion which includes the lamp building the rolling mill and the casting shop, spresents dreary and sorry spectacle. The rolls, however, have not been seriously damaged, but the loss on costly ma chinery and tools in the burner room will be heavy. A large quantity of stock was in pro- cess of construction, this being the very busiest season with the company in the man ufacture of lamps. The rolling mill and the lamp shop comprised the main building of the works, and contained in the way of ma- chinery and tools the accnmulations of twen- ty-fve years.
 The loss, as before said, is about $25O, ,0OO. The insurance is about $2O0,O 900. The Hart ford Fire Insurance Company held risk of $10, 900, the Phoenix one of SIC, 1000, the Ma tional .one of $5,O00, and the Etna is in for some amount Insurance Company of North America, Philadelphia, $15,00o; United Bremen and the Insurance Company of the State of Pennsylvania, both of Phila- delphia, 5000 each the Star Fire Insurance Company of New York, 7,5oO; the Equit- able of Providence, R. l., $5,OO0, and the Transatlantic of Hamburg, Germany, $10,- OO0
 The Messrs Holmes, Booth & Hayden sustained loss by fire on the 18th of last February of $73, 900.

T. R. Trowbridge stated that he had re- ceived notice to lay walk on the east side of Howard avenue, between Columbus avenue and Washington street. He asked that the enforcement of the order might be postponed until after the appeal from assessments on the extension of Union street.
 The Board were of the opinion that as the Common Council had made the order, after a full hearing of the parties, that they would not extend the time for the walk to be laid.
 The city surveyor stated that matters were now in such shape that parties owning prop erty within the proposed layout of the new park could now be heard by the Board. The city surveyor was instructed to notify parties in interest that they would be heard on the second Wednesday of next month.
 The clerk was instructed to send a commu- nication to the Common Council and recom- mend an order for fencing at the corner of Prospect and Trumbull streets.
 Commissioner Pond stated that pavement should be constructed on Temple street, be- tween Chapel and Elm streets. The Board then instructed the clerk to send communi- cation to the Common Council recommending pavement of some kind on that street.
 MT. John L. King, Chapel street bridge tender, asked that notices be placed at the bridge forbidding persons being on the bridge when it was opened. No action.
 Bills for September amounting to $7, 7O9.- 52 were read and ordered paid.
 The clerk was instructed to ask the Chief of Police to instruct the patrolmen to de- mand of parties excavating in streets their permit, if they have none to report their names to.the Chief
 The City Surveyor was instructed to noti- fly parties in interest to make proper connec- tions with gas, water and sewer on Union street, between Wooster and Court streets, before the pavement is relaid.

 ATLANTA, Oct. 6.-The elections to-day, for State officers and members of the Legisla- ture, passed off quietly. The returns are coming in slowly, but enough have been re- ceived at this hour to indicate the reelection of Governor Colquitt by upwards of 15, 1000 majority over ex-Senator Thomas M. Nor wood, who headed the independent or bolt CTS ticket. So far as received, the returns show that the regular nominees are uniform ly successful which will enable them to elect their United States Senator But few Re- publcans have been elected to the Legisla- ture. The election was unusually quiet one and no disturbances are reported
 Later returns from the election show an increased vote for Colquitt and his friends claim now that he will have 10000 majority over Norwood. The negroes voted for Col quitt whose administration has been kind to them. The election contest all over the State was exciting, but not single disturbance is reported. The Colquitt men are very jubi- lant, and in Atlanta have arranged for great torchlight procession tomorrow night.
