The Southern Hurricane.

The Southern hurricane which
swept the Southern, Eastern aud
Northern States last Saturday even
lug and night, aud destroyed thOus-
ands OF dollars worth of property IN
many states, ragged with terrific fury
IN this county early Saturday night.
The lncessant dash of the rain aud
blowing of the wind gave the storm
the sound of heavy cloudburst.
Weter was higher IN Berryville than
1t bias been for years, and but few
cellars here escaped without water
In them. All creeks became raging
torrents, and fencing and bridges
were carried away. Big gaps were
made in stone fences that have al
ways withstood the force of the swol-
len creeks that pass beneath them.
The Shenandoah River left It's banks
and at Castleman's Ferry the water
reached the stone wall east of the
residence of Mr. d. Osburn. County
roads and plowed fields were badly
washed, and big cutters made IN the
hard pixies.
