SEVERE AT BOSTON.

Boston, Jan 26.-Repofts to-day from various points on the New Eng land coast indicated that the great storm of yesterday had lost its sever. ity during the night, but at the same time news that four schooners and one steamer had been driven ashore on Cape Cod was received. The steam. CT was the Georgetown of the Atlan- tic Steamship Co line. which struck on Great Point on Nantucket shoals. The crew have reached shore. but the steamer is reported to be in q bad condition. Of the schooners. two were five masters. third was four mas. ter. the names of these being un- known. while the fourth was the two masted fishing schooner Monitor of Providence. which struck during the night on Sagamore Beach bar, of Sandwich. The crew of four men were driven to the rigging, where they spent the night, with intense suffer. ing. until daylight. when the falling tide permitted them to escape to shore. Of the larger schooners. one of the five masters went ashore on Yarmouth fiats, while the second five master and the four master grounded on the flats near North Dennis. Tho schooner reported last night as ashore oil Provincetown still was in distress to-day and her identity had not been learned. The sudden veering of the gale from northeast to northwest was the Indirect cause of the casting ashore of so many craft at points where they had sought shelter. To days reports indicate that in New Eneland the greatest force Of the storm was felt on the southern shore. Inland. the disturbance was far less severe.
