Thia never happened before in Wei? land Canal; tbe water in tbe harbor has risen six or seven feet. The storm of last night was one of the most severe ever experienced here. The water waahed over tbe piers with such force that it was impossible to see the light? house and the keepers found it impos? sible to get oat to light tho lamps. Much damage waa done to tbe ship? ping and to buildings in course of erection.' Telp8r?Dhlc-.\m?ric?n Blatter?. Cincinnati, November 21.?Oi borne, secretary of the Free Trade League, is dead.

November 21 ?The heavy gales did no material damage beyond high tides, which flooded new cellars. The steeple of the Baptist Oboroh at Sing Sing is down. Tho telegraph poles and many unsubstan? tial buddings were prostrated. The less at Trenton. N. J., was $50,000. A brakeman was thrown from tbe train and killed. The meadows buck of Elizabeth port were flooded fiom six to ten feet and mach hay was de? stroyed. The seamen here are on a strike for higher wages, and ship-owners and captains are seriooaly embarrassed in obtaining orews. Tuscumbia, Ala., November 21.?In tbe storm, Sunday, about 300 persous were deprived of houses, aud the total loss to the town and private indivi? duals is estimated at $500,000 The Memphis and Charleston Rtilroad Company loses $20,000. The storm came on while most of the people were at sapper. It oame like a sound of lushing thunder, and pussed over im? mediately. Houses were blown down in many plaoes, streets and roads were filled with arambliug walls and shat? tered timbers. The people immedi? ately organized, appointed leaders and set about relieving those held by falling timbers and recovering the bodies of the killed. Iu addition to the killed mentioned in yesterday's Nashville de? spatch, thirty persons were injured. The searching party first removed the ruins of State Senator Moore's house. Mrs. Moore was found on a bed, with two heavy timbers acroas her and two children under her, and tbe bed crashed out of shape; two otbttr chil? dren were rescued alive. John Hodg kins was blown oat of the seoond story window of his boose, which was blown down and buried his brother's family. Ia cutting thtoagh tbe wreck, Mr. Hodgkins, hie wife and four children were all found crashed to death. The mansion of Mrs. Winston was blown down, and she found killed by a heavy wardrobe and other furniture. The house was valued at over $10,000. Her son-in-law, ex-Governor Lindsay, oc? cupying a portion of the house, was nnbort. Soon after the storm had bio mi over, it was discovered that the iron railroad bridge over Spring Creek, abG?t half a mile from the town, had been completely destroyed. At the same moment it was remembered that a train from Memphis could be expect? ed to arrive at any moment, and the utmost confusion prevailed; no* one seemed to know what to do. At length a young man, named Wamble, seized a huge stick of pine wood and after thrastiug it iuto tbe fire in a house near by, he rasbed towards the broken bridge, waving the blazing wood over hia bead as he went. He had almost reaohed tbe oreek when bis torch was extinguished by the rain, which was falling in torrent*. At tbe same time, the wbietle of the approach? ing train was heard, and tbe next mo? ment tbe head-light flashed through the darkneaR. Tbe young man cilled with all bis might, but the engineer heard nothing bat the sound of the storm, and before any warning could be oonveyed to him, tho engine, bag? gage oar aud one of the passenger ooaohes was over the embankment fifty feet down iato the creek. Tbe rear passenger oars did not go off tbe track, it being blocked up by tho wreck of the foremost cars. The engineer, fireman and baggage-master went over with it. They were out out of tho rains, after two hours' hard work, and were very dangerously burned and bruised, bat are expeuted to recover. Several of the passengers were slightly injured, bnt none of them prevented from proceeding on their jouruey. They were delayed three hours. Chattanooga, November 21.?Tus cnmbiu is tbe only, plaoe damaged nloug the Memphis and Charleston Railroad. It will probably be a week before the bridge there is replaced; in the meantime, passengers will be transferred. It is bard to glean any ptrtioalars of tho hurricane aud its ef? fects from here.

Bathobst, N. B-, November 24.? The small-pox is prevalent and fatal. New York, November 24.?A lefcter from Havana, dated 19th mat., says: Last month a party of twenty-five Spanish soldiers of the artillery garri soning fort St. Hilario, in the Central Department, revolted, seized aooasting vessel at Puerto del Padre, on the North ooaat, and under threats of death, forced the captain of the vessel to get under way, ordering him to take them to Key West, St. Thomas, or any of the neighboring islands. The cap? tain, seeming to accede to their wishes, weighed Bnohor and set sail, bot ran the vessel aground on a neighboring key. He then jumped into * ?es?!! boat, and, under pretext of getting aid, went to the nearest military head? quarters and informed the eommander, who sent a force of man to arrest the deserters. They were tried by court martial and on the 6th mat., eleven of them were shot and the remaining fourteen wero imprisoned. Montgomery, November 24 ?This has been a day of great rejoioing. An immense concourse of people is in the city. The military display was mag nifioent. Qov. HouBtou, in the oonrse of his inaugnral address, said: "With a firm determination to respect aud maintain my oath of office, whiob shall be a seal to my conscience, I unhesi? tatingly undertake to perform snob duties as it imposes, and I will re? mark it as ono of my highest and most sacred obligations to see that tho laws are faithfully executed, the rights of all citizens, without regard to raoe, color or previous condition, duly guarded "and protected.

J. MuKmnoo, repre? sentative of a Londou Syndicate, kuown oh tbe American Boud Fund und Banking Association, is now tra? veling through the South, and eugaged I in negotiations looking to tbe funding of the entire Southern debt. A spe? cial despatch to the Chicago Tim?* gives an outline of this gentleman's course with regard to Virginia, whose debt amounts to more than 830,000, 0J0. The proposition* is to fund iu bonds running ten years, and bearing four per cent, interest iu gold, or iu bonds running twenty years, bearing ; five per cent, interest iu gold, tbe j principal aud interest to bo paid only iu Louden. The Association pro scribes, as one of the conditions of tho coutract it proposes to make with the State, that the money to pay the prin? cipal aud interest of tho new funded debt shall be deiived from a fixed por tioj of the revenue, to be inviolably set upart for that purpose. It is said that the rise in Southern securities is mainly due to the pros i act of tho success of this scheme. ? - Furciigott, Benedict & Co., Charles? ton, S O, am offering ouo of the largest stocks of DltV Gquds aud ?au i'bts 10 tho United States.
