Most :Istressing accounts were received on Wednesday from vari \ ons parts of the We-t Indies, respecting the dreadful effects of a late 4., • -hurricane which ocelot ed in that quarter. The following is extracted C.om a llernwda paper of the Ist of August : " N 111.4 AU, Sunday, Aug. 1,18 i 3 —lt falls to our lot to record the most dreadful calamity by which these islands have ever been afflicted in the memory of man. " •he dawning of that day exhibited a serenity calculated to lull to sleep the fears of the most wary ; and the breeze freshening oil the sky, it was hailed by all as a happy relief from the extreme sultry heat of the atmosphere, which had pressed heat ily nail un nerved us on the preceding days : but no one saw the :ipproachieg storm which lowered behind it. " At 10 o'clock the wind increased, and cm:tinned increasing, accompanied by short showers of rain. It gained co , :sith rably in the course of an hour; at eleven it blew a s*.rong gale, - and some of the shipping in the harbour appeared micas attla-ir anchorage ; but it was mint until twelve Welock that it a:taived the height whica constitutes the commencement of an hurt ie«oe, and which soon became evident by its . desteuetire effects npon the waters mid upon the shore. Sonic of the vessels ill the hat hour were driven from their inoerings, and houses began to totter upon theirfismitlations. " 'Flue hay was soon croaded with merchants. ship.ow tiers, marl tier , , and labourers, allinealy emplayed iii enticavottring to savelives and property from the vessels utile!, It ere driteu lion their moor ings; and every householder, with what a-sistance he kid at loan,. or could obtain, was employed infortif) lug his hotice te...ainst it e fury of the raging element, .by !Alive up aid batty- iog doors al, windows. At about lialf past two tielocii the Inn ricane attained its greatest heigh!, and in its twine enwinni.d, ‘iiiiiniii interval, unlit five, when it suddenly ceased ; and in the space ofloalf au hourvisoc• reeded a calm, so perfect, that it can bt compared ot.l)- to that of death after the most dreadful convulsions. ' it was now that the tacos became visible. Lives were lost in vain attempts to protect themselves or to save others. The Govern ment-house, the greater part of the other public boil& .ngs.a great mkpi. ber of other houses, the %%hal - yes, the orchards, alai gardeas weir found either wholly or partly destroyed ; and all Lie ve , sels iii the Atbaur, excepting only Mr. Sannikre schooner Ellena, and the rixe brig Soda Ana, were driven on shore or sunk in the harbour. ----+4~+~- , 829 =ic . . " A scene of ruin presented itself to the view of the beholder, die. tre-sing beyond measure. g The inhabitantiilif the colony, well knowing the nature of We. rica:ies, took every precautionary measure within thcir reach during the calm, or hilt, to prepare for its second part expected froth the • • south-west, anti which set iu wi:h great fury at about six o'clock, and continued until midnight, when it considerably abated, and soon after totally ceased. The smith west storm °differed from the north. eastern one by appearing in heavy blasts of a few minutes duration, repeated after lulls of equal length, and the lengths of these lulls gra- • dually increasing, until it so cease i ; whereas the first storm rated without intermission. This last, however, nearly completed the general ruin, and it is believed that if it had raged another hour, scarcely a house would have remained standing in this city. which, before the storm, was considered, in proportion to its size and population, to be one of ti.e most wealthy and the most flourishing in the world. " One third of the houses have been levelled to the ground; and all have received more or less injury. Property of all description has suticret. Hundreds ot families, heretofore comfortable, buy* been redneed to bee , gary at.d waist, " On the litorniuty after the iinericane, the Governer walked round the city, onsl hasimn witnessed the destruction and nysery it had occa-toted, telt it is duty to relieve the sufferers. A meeting was also had tor the Members of Assembly ; and all .coinciding in the views of the Governor,it was soon determined to grant a sum of money for that purpose, which they mutually pledged themselves to coetirm at the next Session, in the thr( e several , branches of the Legislature in General 'Assembly. for distributing the relief so. gr,inted to (injects entitled to receive it. " Every thing et re has done, consistent with the means and resources . 0t the colony, to soften toe rigours of the calamity by. w hick it has been afflicted.'
