\ Damaging storm.
fRv fele0re nh To the pigpatch

PLYMOUTH, MASS, December Is
The gale which began Friday and con.
tiDued into Sunday was much more Sc
we're than the Thanksgiving-day storm.
More damage was done to property
here than by any storm since the
Minot slight gale. Robbins's wharf,
at the north end, was entirely carried
away, and the lumber-yard suffered Sc
verely. The long wharf was much in
iured, as were also other wharves. At
Woods undergrad much lumber was
blown and washed away. Altogether
the damage to streets, wharves, &c.,
will probably reach $4,000.
