or two or three.

was reported moving up the South
Atlantic coast Thursday, and which
caused some uneasiness when storm
signals were ordered displayed at this
port, passed by Brunswick late Thurs
day night, only the tail-end of the
gale hitting this port. In fact the
wind blew at a velocity of only ten
or twelve miles here, while in other
ports north of US serious damage was
reported yesterday.
Charleston seems to have been hit
heavily, though full reports from there
were impossible yesterday, that city
being entirely cut off from outside
communication. Reports, however,
stated that the wind blew at a velOci-

damage resulted.
AT Savannah at thirty-eight mile
gale prevailed, doing considerable
damage. Many cottages at Tybee
were washed away by the wind at that
