Smco the hurricane of Aug. 27. 1881, Savannah has not seen as heavy a storm •* that which swept over the city Monday sight and yesterday morning. Although sot to be compared with the one of lour years ago for the loss it caused, it was severe enough to ho long remem- bered. Old citizens in their talk went back in their experiences and compared notes, sut recall few storms except those of In>4 and ISM to equal it. The severest part of the storm, when the most damage was done, was between 2 and 6 o'clock. Alter the blow In the early part of Monday night had subsided, it was thought that the heaviest of tae storm, which had been central early In the evening off Florida, had gone up the coast to the seaward, and that all danger was past. But at 2 o’clock the wind, which had slacked off, freshened up, and increased in velocity until t o’clock, when it reached its height at a*! miles an hour from the northwest. The rain poured down in torrents. The -treets were flooded and the sewers wore filled. WAKED 11Y THK WINDS. Half the city, now wide awake, was up, and windows and doors were se- cured against the wind and the descending flood. Few people slept alter 3 o’clock and those who went through the storm ol 18X1 were fear- ful of a repetition of their experience then. The wind kept on Increasing and buildings were shaken to their foundations. The Uity Exchange bell and the bell in the Independent Presbyterian church were swayed and rung in the height of the gale. The police on duty dodged into hallways and uqder porches to escape the limbs and branches of trees, which were blown across sidewalks and into the •treets from curb to curb. Stout trees in many of the squares and in the Park were ■uprooted and their trunks twisted off near the ground. To the few people who were abroad at that hour it was a dismal soene. BWIIF OF THE STORM. The ravages of the wind were more vio- lent on the outskirts o. the city than in the central porlioii Shrubbery and plants in gardens were broken down, and lew trees escaped without having their branches twisted and snapped. In the extreme limits fences were blown down. and sheds and out buildings were unroofed and the siding ripped off. In the centre of the ci y little or no damage was done to build- ings except in one or two instances. A huge tree standing on Bull street in front of tbe Pavilion hotel was uprooted, and fell with a crash across the hotel garden and walk, smashiug tbe roof of the porch above the main entrance, tearing off the blinds and crushing in the windows and doors. The guests were awakened by the crash and rushed into the halls, thinking the building was tailing. For a time there was intense excitement. The rain poured into the exposed rooms through the largi holes crushed In the ■ide ot the building and the floors were flooded. The fences in front of the hotel ■were broken down and the yard was tilled with wreckage. All over tbe city the sldewa ks wore strewn with broken limbs and branches of tree*. ALONG THK WHARVES. Along the wharves the damage was Rot so great as it was feared it would be. The sloop Marlon Griffin, Capt. Alex. Brown, arrival at the market dock at 6 o’clock Monday nignt. About 3 o’clock yesterday morning tbe pilot boat Pet while adrift, ran into her, staving in her stern and leaving her in a sinking condi- tion. The Captain of the Griffin estimates his lots at $l5O. Tha schooner Masher, from May river. also lying at tbe market dock, had her jib gjiys carried away, and sprung her foremast. Bhe also had the upper part ot her stern Stove in and her figure-head carried away. At the exchange dock quite a fleet of small sloops was moored, several of which sustained severe damages. Two were sunk at the dock. Another had her stem stove in by two heavy lighters which came down on them, having pre- viously broken admit from the Ocean steamship wharf. One of the sloops was raised yesterday, and the other will lie raised to-day. A KAFT IIKOKXN UP. A portion of The cat go of the schooner Maid o’ the Mist, at the Savannah, Florida and Western railway wharf, consisting of turpeutine and rosin, was carried overboard, but was afterwards recover- ed. A boom of timber, consisting of several rafts, and being the lull cargo of the German bark .lulle waa broken from it moorings and went driltlng in all directions. Fortunately every stick of it was recovered. There was no dam- age done to any of the larger vessels. On the Savannah,'Florida and Western Rail- way Company’s wharf some little damage waa done to the spirits turpentine bar- rels, causing them to leak, but the lost waa very slight. IN TUX NEIGHBORHOOD. At Montgomery, White Hluff and Isle Of Hope the storm was as severe as In the city. At all of those resorts trees and fences were blown down, but no serious damage was done to residences or other buildings. The early inbound train yesterday morn- ing on the City and Suburbanrailway was delayed alsmt hull an hour by a fallen tree that had blown across the track near Betbesda station. At Thunderbolt the blow was very se- vere, and trees along the bluff and at Bouaventure were uprooted and blown across the roads, obstructing travel until they could be removed. On Grove street in the southeastern portion of the city a large sycamore was blown across the house occupied by an old man nuuicd Minion Bollinger, demol- ishing the brick chimney and a portion of the roof. Bellinger eacap and luxury by crawling out of a window. W ben the top of the tree was cut off’ later la the day, the triflik flew back rapidlv to its original perpendicular, the earth about the roots presenting the appear- and* of not having been disturbed in the It ssu GnLovers’ lane nearly all the fences of the truck farmers were more or less broken by the wind. V ery little damage was,however,done to the vegetable crops, either at tbis point or elsewhere iu the county. THE WIRES DOWN. Yhe telegraph and telephone wires were bally disarranged. r wlephonic commu- nication was Interrupted in the city alter laUlfilght. Linemen were busy yesterday and most of the disarranged circuits were In e[ieitlou tsylore nlgbl. Tbits was no odnuuunication with Tyneo after It) o'clock, and until newa waa re- ceived by etesiuer a g'sid deal oi anxiety was felt by tboae whose faintoea and Irienda were on the ialttnd. The Western Union Telegraph < ouii any bad but one wire of the thirty running out of the Savannah office in Working order, and business was serl- ‘ousts delayed for a time Tbe iroaleat damag* was on the coital and t.hsrie*. Jd and ravaunsi* railroads. Locomotives wita gangs of lio nu were sent out oyet the Charleston road to repair the lines as much as possible, so that com- munication could be secured in that diiectiou. LINEMEN AT WORK- The wires are intact as far as llar- deeville, but beyond there they were found to be badly dumaged. Several miles of poles were blown down on a single stretch. On the Central railroad the damage is equally great. The only wires working last night were one to Macon and another to Augusta. There was no communication with Charleston, except at Summerville, 22 miles distant, where an office was temporarily estab- lished for the transmission of press reports. Manager Dillon had gang of men at work all night, and the company will be able to handle business to-day without delay. The wires running south on the Savan- nah, Florida and Western railway, were very little broken. THE RICK CROP UNINJURED. Very little was heard from tbe rice plantations, but the few reports . which have come in are to the effect that little or no damage was done to the crops along the Savannah, Back and New rivers. Some rice was blown down, but there was no water to speak of. The wind being from tbe west north- west, the water was blown fiom the plan- tations. In tact, there was no tide at all, jhe water being blown out of the rivers. Very little damage was done to crops In any direction so tar as reports have been received. There was little on the truck farms to be injured. The fruit crop is ad- vanced so far that there was nothing to damage. ASHORE ON THE KNOLL. The bark C. Chalmers, t apt. Walter Stone, with mahogany from Mexico, went ashore on the knoll, one and one-half miles north of Tybee wharf at 2 o’clock in the morning. Saturday night she anchored outside and was spoken by a pilot, but refused to take one. Sunday morning at 4 o’clock, the cable parted and she lost and anchor and 45 fathoms of chain. The Captain then made sail and came inside. Monday morning the Captain went over to quar- antine station, but before he was ready to return the wind was blowing a gale and he could not got back. At ti o’olock In the evening she lost her second anchor and 60 fathoms of cable. The wind increased to a hurricane at midnight, and at 1 o’clock was blowing 70 miles an hour. The Chalmers began dragging at 11:80 o'clock, and DRAGGED FIVE MILES, having lost a third anchor and 35 fathoms of cable at 1:30 o’clock. She went ash're soon after, rolling heavily, with tbe sea breaking over her deck. Tue crew of nine men thought she was going to pieces, but did not leave tbe vessel. Her steering apparatus was broken, the rud- der post being wrenched out ol place. She is lying with her head to the south, and last night had 13 feet of water in her hold. The vessel is 20 years old and be- longs In Boness. She may get off safely but it is not certaiu. DRAGGED FROM HER ANCHORAGE. The British bark. N. Mosher, Capt. Cook, in ballast, was lying at anchor in Hie roads. She dragged three miles and lost an anchor betore striking on the north end of Tybee island. The Captain was in Savannnh at the time She is Insured and is owned by Dobell A Cos., of which tirm Capt. J. K. Clarke, of this city, is a member. Last night the tugs Constitution and Maud hailed her but did not try to pull her off, sne having 10 feet of water in her hold. She is 21 years old. She is lying in a dan- gerousposition, but may get off. The Norwegian bark l’atent, which is lying at quarantine station, was STOVE IN AMIDSHIPS, and a large hole was knocked in tbe bow by bumping against tile wharf. The British steamship Marion. Capt. Jcffels, was riding at anchor above quar- antine a short distance. When struok by the hurricane she dragged and struck oil the lower end of the west side ot Long island. The tug Constitution went to her assistance and at sundown pulled her off. The pilot boat Jones was carried well up on shore on the upper Ding island on the west, side, hut came off at high water last night without assistance. In the South channel the damage was much less than in the North. The excur- sion steamer St. Nicholas was anenored between Cockspur and McQueen islands. Sbe had two anchors out and put on 40 pounds of steam, but even then could not keep from dragging. The waves dashed up over the deck and she was blown ashore opposite Fort Pulaski, but came off at high water about sun rise. The pilot boat Wilder was blown on the tnarsb on McQueen’s Island and she too got off at high tide. AT TYBKK. On Tybee Island the wind blew at one time 70 miles an hour. All day a sand storm prevailed and the weather looked threatening. Old residents scanned the clouds closely and expressed tears of a repetition ol the storm of 1881. After dark the wind blew harder, and as the night wore on it became a gale. At first it came from the northeast, but later veered around to the north. The residents went to bed with anxious minds. Luckily the hurricane was fiercest about the lime of low tide and the island escaped a deluge by a tidal wave, as occurred four years ago, when the hurricane struck. Ty- bee at high tide. The storm was RAGING AT TWO O’CLOCK. Tbo wooden houses swayed perceptibly, and one owned by Charles Carroll, near the wharf and west of the railroad track, cracked at each violent gust. Sirs. Car- roll w as alone, and fearing that the bouse would be blown down, she left It a lew minutes before 3. Tbe was then howling among the trees, and the rain was falling in tor- rents. The air was lull of sand and pieces of wood which tbe wind picked up and hurled with great force across the island.* Mrs. Cart oil made her way through the dark to the house of a near neighbor, Mr. D. J. Fatten. One hour and a half later tbe storm seemed at its height, and with a crash Ca roll’s house was blown down and completely demol- ished. Almost everything in it was a to- tal wreck. The building was two StortM high and contained eleven room*, it was valued at $1,690. and the furniture at S4OO. Yesterday the former site of tho house was covered with nine* of broken timbers and furniture. I'hivc chairs and a mat- tress were the only articles saved. SMALL 111 II.DINGS WRECKED. A kitchen attached to ibe dwelling of W. T. Daniels was also wrecked, it was occupied by Charles Johnson, colored, and hi wife. They esi-aiied only a fow min- utes tietore the building fell. Tne wind swept most furiously across tbe west side of the island. Col. Estili’s stable* weie unroofed, and soon after the building was blown down and wrecked. The gale tore away a portion of the wharf shid an 1 dropped it in the fiver. On tbe eust side the hotels and resi- deuces suffered little. Those of the resi- dents who were there in |K*t thought that for a little while that night the storm was worse than four years ago. The guests in the hotels were hadlv frightened, but no nusnap occurred. Sirs. Collins bad the it arm west escape, for while she was going to her neighbor's house she was neat it btowi Imm Um watar. a pet |*s that wa* In the bouse was taken out with two legs broken, after daylight, when the wind ceased. THE CITY OT SAVANNAH IN PORT, The steamship City of Navanneli, from Sew York, arrived last Blfhlßt k o’olook. twelve hours overdU”. title ie|xirted s Du. h night and a heavy sea. she was •t'lies by th* hurricane off Charleston abou midnight. Tbe wind was blowing toward shore, and she was headed out to sea. A heavy rain was falling and the ship pitched from side to side, to the con- sternation of the passengers, almost all Of whom hpeatne sick. Tue waves rolled high and broke over the steamer. The officers say that it was one of the roughest nights they ever ex- perienced. The vessel shipped heavy sens and the water poured in through the broken headlights. The sails were split and the railing carried away, and had not tbe steamer been one of tbe staunchest of ships she could not have lived through the gale. Her cargo shifted and gave ner a tremendous list. The water that she shipped poured through the cabins and found its wav to the hold, damaging the cargo. At 3 o’clock the storm was most furious, and fifteen men were at work bailing out the cabins, which were flooded. Cspt. Daggett kept his vessel heading off the const and handled her with great nerve and skill. Due of the passengers said that “for hours they hung on the verge of death.” RESOLUTIONS* OF THANKS. After the danger was over the passen- gers adopted the following resolutions expressing their gratitude to Capt. Dag- gett and bis officers and crew. Umpired, By tli passengers on the steam ship City of Savannah, that in view of the sudden am! terrible storm whioh ha-ju-t been weathered aud h* now worn away, they are satisfied that the preservation of the slop and eargo, and of the lives of numerous passen- gers, are entirely due to the unselfish heroism and persis'ent devotion of the able com- mander, officers, and crew of the ship. Ht*olre>l That the passengers of the City of Savannah recognize in the management of the ship the secret of ihsirrescue from a end- | den and appalling death; and that they will cherish with gratitude and affection the name of Commander Daggett, and the memory of hm courage, his decision and force of charac- ter, and tns consummate skill by whioh be was enabled to save much property and many precious lives. THE GROUNDED CHALMERS. Yesterday afternoon Dr. McFarland, the health officer, went down tbe river on the tug Constitution and boarded the bark Chalmers. Being from an infected district, Mexico, she is subjected to quarantine regulations. The vessel is out of provis- ions, and the Captain intended to come into Savannah to get a fresh supply. His vessel will now he detained ior quite a time in getting off and repairing. Capt. Stone says that he has had no sickness on hoard since sailing. In coming in the river Sunday without proceeding to quarantine he viofated, un- wittingly, he claims, quarantine rules. Had he gone direct to the quarantine sta- tion his vessel would undoubtedly have been sate. TRAINS DELAYED. South-bound trains on the Charleston and Savannah railroad were seriously de- layed. The fast mail due at 7 o’clook was several hours late, delayed by trees falling across the track. When tbe train left Charleston at 4 o'clock the city had not yet felt the force ot tbe storm. The rain was tailing In torrents, and the tracks were submerged, but no serious damage had yet b“en done. Tbe last mall was the last train out of Charleston. The bridge over the Ashley was swept away by the cyclone, which struck the city an hour later and travel was cut off. Construction and wrecking trains were at once sent out to repair the track. Master of Transportation Craig, with a gang of men, was at the scene, ami it was expected that everything would be in readiness to transfer the passengers and mails of New York train, which lett Havannah last night. On the Savannah, Florida and Western railway and Central railroad, no damage was reported. After getting off of Long Island the Marion steamed up the river and made fast below the City of Bridgeton’s dock, but in so doing struck the Bridgeton aft and damaged her, but it is not believed to be serious. THE WM. LAWRENCE DISABLED. The steamship City of Savannah reports having passed at 1 p. m. yesterday 20 miles east northeast of Martin’s Industry lightship the Italian bark MoriaDuina, of Oastellamare, Italy, and irom I.icota, Italy, bound for Port Royal. The bark was partially di-masted anil her sails were blown away, but she did not want assistance. The steamer also reports that at 4 p. m. yesterday she passed the steam- ship VVtn. Lawrence, from Baltimore for this port, 15 miles from the lightship with 5 feet ot water In her hold and flres out. She was pumping the water out with tbe donkey engine. The Lawrence reported that, she would }igbt fires under her main boiler and proceed. She likewise declined assistance. TKACK OF THE STORM. The cyclone was probably formed in the South Atlantic ocean north of the West India islands and traveled duo west until it reached the apex of Its course, de- scribed bv an elliptical curve, at a point northeast of Jacksonville and southeast from Savannah. At 3 o’clock Monday afternoon when the wind at Jacksonville was blowing 40 miles per hour that station was on the left of the storm centre, which was mov- ing slowly up the coast on a line east of north. At It o’clock at night the wind at Savannah was from the east, showing that the CENTRE OF THE STORM wfis due south. The barometer at that hour was 29.81 inches. At t o’clock yesterday morning the wind was from the nori beast, with a velocity of 21 miles, the barometer having fallen in the previ- ous two hours to 29.71. The change in the direction of the wind from east to northeast indicated that tbe storm centre was swinging away front the ooast, and that, its course would be by the sen in- stead of inland. At 2 o’clock the barome- ter had fallen to 29.62, and the wind was from the north, blowing 20 miles. The wind continued to back to- wards the northwest during the next hour. At 8 o'clock its direction was north northwest. Its velocity was 24 miles, the haroinete- standing st. 29 51. At 4 o’clock it went us low as 29.38, the wind being from the northwest with a VELOCITY OF 56 MILES. This velocity became apparent at 3:45 o’clock and was kept up 30 minutes, or until 4:15 O'clock, After that the barometer began to rise, w hile the winf continued to heck, the velocity at the Janie time decreasing. At 5 o clock the direction of the wind was west northwest, tbe barometer showing an atmospheric pressure of 29.50, and the velocity of the wind was 10 miles. As the wind hacked around from toe east towards the northwest, tbe storm centra advHiici <1 from the south, taking a north- east course, and left Savannah on its left. A comparison in the reading of the barometer at Jacksonville and Savannah, When the wind attuined its greatest velocity at the respective stations, shows that the storm passed NEARER TO SAVANNAH than to Jacksonville. The barometer was much lower at Savannah yemerdav morn- ing at t o'clock than at Jeekeonvtlle on the preceding afternoon at 3 o'clock. The velocity of the wind bong so much greater here than at Jacksonville, also Indicated that Savannah was nearer the centre of the storm than the other city hud twen. Charleston was, however. Immediately In its track, but owing to the interruption of telegraphic communica- tion. the report from the signal atation waa not, received at Savannah, hence no comparisons cau at present tie made to ■how what the relative velocity of the storm was between the two places. AFTER PASSING CHARLESTON the storm continued in a northeasterly eoursH inland, leaving Snilinvllle, N, C,, on It* right. At this station at 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon the wind wua blow- ing from tbe eoutb at 55 miles an hour. When the grealeel velocity repotted at SimMivlllo and Savannah arc considered it seems reasonable to suppose that each ot the stations were rela- tively about the same distance from the storm centre, one being on the left and the other on the right. If the cyclone continues to move towards the northeast at tbe same speed which marked its progress during tbo 24 hours ending at 3 o’clock yesterday aiternoon, It will pass in the vicinity of Norfolk, Va., this after- noon. The storm here was unaccompanied by thunder, and lightning. Rain, however, felt at intervals with blinding force and apparently in horizontal instead of in inclined or perpendicular lines. The total raiulall at Savannah for the 24 hours end- ing at 10 o’clock yesterday morning was I.DO inches. The storm signals were ordered down at Savannah at 1 o’clock this morning. At that hour the storm was reported cen- tral in the vicinity of iJatteras and was moving northeast. A COMPARISON WITH 1881. The oyclono of 1881 commenced on Aug. 27. On that day at 10:44 o’clock in the forenoon the wind was from the North, blowing at tbe rat- ol 32 miles per hour aud the barometer stood at 29.61. At 2 o’clock in the afternoon tbe wind was from the North with a velocity of 36 miles and tbe barometer read 29:48. At 6:44 o’clock in the evening the wind had begun to back around to- wards the northwest. The velocity was 33 miles and mercurv in the barometer stood at 29.30. At 7:30 o’olock the wind shifted from north northwest to north northeast. At 8 o’clock the rain was fall- ing in white sheets and the wind was blowing 48 miles per hour from sorth northeast. At B:4ft o'clock the anemom- eter at the signal station indicated a ve- locity of 60 miles per hour, the direction being northeast. At 9:20 o’clock the barometer went as low as 29.08, but tbe direction and velocity of the wind was not observed, as the wind vane and the anemometer had been carried away, to- gether with the roof of the building in which the station was located. Vivid flashes of lightning and long reverberat- ing peals ot thunder accompanied the storm, and formed a marked coutrast be- tween It and tbeoae which occurred yes- terday morning. Not to Withdraw Their Business. It is stated in one of the Augusta papers that Hon. Kobt. H. May, Mayor of that city, personally requested Messrs. Moore & Slnnott, agents of John Gibson’s Son & Co.’s whiskies, not, to withdraw their business from Augusta, which they were about doing, assuring them that it, was, in his opinion, very doubtful if prohibition would ever prevail fere. It is probable, therefore, that the business will be con- tinued. A Queer Quarautlue. The Oil, Paint and Drug Reporter of Aug. 19, says: “The Nassau government has issued a proclamation imposing a rigid quarantine against the islands of Cuba and San Domingo, and all ports on the Atlantic seaboard and Gulf, south of Hatteras and north of Belize, British Honduras.” Store for Sale. Mr. Salomon Cohen offers for sale the good-will and stock in trade of a general merchandise store in one ol the growing towns of Florida, in a line, healthy, farm- ing and fruit region, on the Florida South- ern and Florida Transit railways.

The maximum temperature at Savan- nah yesterday was 00.5 degrees—observed at 3:30 o’clock. The mean of temperature for the day was 82.1, and the minimum 72. Last evening as the steamship City ot Augusta was passing down the river the swell caused one of the forward lines of the brig Lewis L. Squires to part. No other damage resulted therefrom. Two negro mothers on Liberty street lane near West Broad street, settled a quarrel between the families yesterday by the old horatii-curatii method. Each was represented by a child, and the two youthful pugilists fought until they were exhausted. A negro boy named Daniel Banks, em- ployed by C. Hansen, was drowned In Thunderbolt river, at the Sc.huetzen park, on Monday afternoon. He had been dlv- iug from a boat when he was attacked by cramps and quickly disappeared beneath the surface. Tha body had not been re- covered up to last night. W. C. Smith, alias “One-Eyed Mungin,” a notorious negro outlaw', was arrested in Yamacraw yesterday by Officer Malette, of the Ocean steamship police, for ob- structing the sidewalk on Bryan and Farm streets.

In a recent interview with Gen. Giilmore on harbor improvements, the General was made to say that there were 27 feet of water at Charleston and 22 feet at Savannah. The error was so self-evi- dent that it was hardly necessary to cor- rect it, but as it may lead to a wrong idea o( the true state of the case, the News makes the correction. Gen. Giilmore stated that there was 17 feet, instead of 27 at Charleston. Weatber Indication*.

Savannah has not seen as heavy a storm

•* that which swept over thecity Mondaysight and yesterday morning. Although

sot to be compared with the one of louryears ago for the loss it caused, it was

severe enough to ho long remem-bered. Old citizens in their talk went

back in their experiences andcompared notes, sut recall few stormsexcept those of In>4 and ISM to equal it.The severest part of thestorm, when themost damage was done, was between 2and 6 o'clock.

Alter the blow In the early part ofMonday night had subsided, it wasthought that the heaviest of taestorm, which had been central earlyIn the evening off Florida, had goneup the coast to the seaward, and that alldanger was past. But at 2 o’clock thewind, which had slacked off, freshenedup, and increased in velocity until to’clock, when it reached its height at a*!miles an hour from the northwest. Therain poured down in torrents. The -treetswere floodedand the sewers wore filled.

WAKED 11Y THK WINDS.Half the city, now wide awake, was up,

and windows and doors were se-cured against the wind and thedescending flood. Few people sleptalter 3 o’clock and those whowent through the storm ol 18X1 were fear-ful of a repetition of their experiencethen. The wind kept onIncreasing and buildings wereshaken to their foundations. TheUity Exchange bell and the bell in theIndependent Presbyterian church wereswayed and rung in the height of thegale. The police on duty dodged intohallways and uqder porches to escapethe limbs and branches of trees, whichwere blown across sidewalks and into the•treets from curb to curb. Stout trees inmany of the squares and in the Park were■uprooted and their trunks twisted offnear the ground. To the few people whowere abroad at that hour it was a dismalsoene.

BWIIF OF THE STORM.The ravages of the wind were more vio-

lent on the outskirts o. the city than inthe central porlioii Shrubbery andplants in gardens were broken down, andlew trees escaped without having theirbranches twisted and snapped. In theextreme limits fences wereblown down. and • sheds andout buildings were unroofed and thesiding ripped off. In the centre of theci y little or no damage was done to build-ings except in one or two instances. Ahuge tree standing on Bull street in frontof tbe Pavilion hotel was uprooted, andfell with a crash across the hotel gardenand walk, smashiug tbe roof of the porchabove the main entrance, tearing off theblinds and crushing in the windowsand doors. The guests were awakenedby the crash and rushed into the halls,thinking the building was tailing. For atime there was intense excitement. Therain poured into the exposed roomsthrough the largi holes crushed In the■ide ot the building and the floors wereflooded. The fences in front of the hotel■were broken down and the yard was tilledwith wreckage. All over tbe city thesldewa ks wore strewn with broken limbsand branches of tree*.

ALONG THK WHARVES.Along the wharves the damage was

Rot so great as it was feared it would be.The sloop Marlon Griffin, Capt. Alex.Brown, arrival at the market dock at 6o’clock Monday nignt. About 3 o’clockyesterday morning tbe pilot boat Petwhile adrift, ran into her, staving in herstern and leaving her in a sinking condi-tion. The Captain of the Griffin estimateshis lots at $l5O.

Tha schooner Masher, fromMay river. also lying attbe market dock, had her jib gjiyscarried away, and sprung her foremast.Bhe also had the upper part ot her sternStove in and her figure-head carried away.

At the exchange dock quite a fleet ofsmall sloops was moored, several ofwhich sustained severe damages. Twowere sunk at the dock. Another had herstem stove in by two heavy lighterswhich came down on them, having pre-viously broken admit from the Oceansteamship wharf. One of the sloops wasraised yesterday, and the other will lieraised to-day.

A KAFT IIKOKXN UP.A portion of The cat go of the schooner

Maid o’ the Mist, at theSavannah, Floridaand Western railway wharf, consisting ofturpeutine and rosin, was carriedoverboard, but was afterwards recover-ed. A boom of timber, consisting ofseveral rafts, and being the lull cargoof the German bark .lulle waa brokenfrom it moorings and went driltlng inall directions. Fortunately every stickof it was recovered. There was no dam-age done to any of the larger vessels. Onthe Savannah,'Florida and Western Rail-way Company’s wharfsome little damagewaa done to the spirits turpentine bar-rels, causing them to leak, but the lostwaa very slight.

IN TUX NEIGHBORHOOD.At Montgomery, White Hluff and Isle

Of Hope the storm was as severe as In thecity. At all of those resorts trees andfences were blown down, but no seriousdamage was done to residences or otherbuildings.

Theearly inbound train yesterday morn-ing on the City and Suburbanrailway wasdelayed alsmt hull an hour by a fallentree that had blown across the track nearBetbesda station.

At Thunderbolt the blow was very se-vere, and trees along the bluff and atBouaventure were uprooted and blownacross the roads, obstructing travel untilthey could be removed.

On Grove street in the southeasternportion of the city a large sycamore wasblown across the house occupied by anold man nuuicd Minion Bollinger, demol-ishing the brick chimney and a portionof the roof. Bellinger eacap andluxury by crawling out of a window.W ben the top of the tree was cut off’ laterla the day, the triflik flew back rapidlv toits original perpendicular, the earthabout the roots presenting the appear-and* of not having been disturbed in theIt ssu

GnLovers’ lane nearly all the fences ofthe truck farmers were more or lessbroken by the wind. V ery little damagewas,however,done to the vegetable crops,either at tbis point or elsewhere iu thecounty.

THE WIRES DOWN.Yhe telegraph and telephone wires were

bally disarranged. ’ rwlephonic commu-nication was Interrupted in the city alterlaUlfilght. Linemen were busy yesterdayand most of the disarranged circuits wereIn e[ieitlou tsylore nlgbl. Tbits was noodnuuunication with Tyneo after It)o'clock, and until newa waa re-ceived by etesiuer a g'sid dealoi anxiety was felt by tboae whosefaintoea and Irienda were on theialttnd. The Western Union Telegraph< ouii any bad but one wire of the thirtyrunning out of the Savannah office inWorking order, and business was serl-

‘ousts delayed for a time Tbe iroaleatdamag* was on the • coital and t.hsrie*.Jd and ravaunsi* railroads. Locomotiveswita gangs of lio nu were sent out

oyet the Charleston road to repair thelines as much as possible, so that com-munication could be secured in thatdiiectiou.

LINEMEN AT WORK-

The wires are intact as far as llar-deeville, but beyond there they werefound to be badly dumaged. Severalmiles of poles were blown down on asingle stretch. On the Central railroadthe damage is equally great. The onlywires working last night were one toMacon and another to Augusta. Therewas no communication with Charleston,except at Summerville, 22 miles distant,where an office was temporarily estab-lished for the transmission of press reports.Manager Dillon had gang of men at workall night, and thecompany will be able tohandle business to-day without delay.The wires running south on the Savan-nah, Florida and Western railway, werevery little broken.

THE RICK CROP UNINJURED.Very little was heard from tbe rice

plantations, but the few reports . whichhave come in are to the effect that littleor no damage was done to the crops alongthe Savannah, Back and New rivers.Some rice was blown down, butthere was no water to speakof. The wind being from tbe west north-west, the water was blown fiom the plan-tations. In tact, there was no tide at all,jhe water being blown out of the rivers.Very little damage was done to crops Inany direction so tar as reports have beenreceived. There was little on the truckfarms to be injured. The fruit crop is ad-vanced so far that there was nothing todamage.

ASHORE ON THE KNOLL.The bark C. Chalmers, t apt. Walter

Stone, with mahogany from Mexico, wentashore on the knoll, one and one-halfmiles north of Tybee wharf at 2 o’clockin the morning. Saturday night sheanchored outside and was spoken by apilot, but refused to take one. Sundaymorning at 4 o’clock, the cable partedand she lost and anchor and45 fathoms of chain. The Captain thenmade sail and came inside. Mondaymorning the Captain went over to quar-antine station, but before he was ready toreturn the wind was blowing a gale andhe could not got back. At ti o’olockIn the evening she lost hersecond anchor and 60 fathomsof cable.The wind increased to a hurricane atmidnight, and at 1 o’clock was blowing70 miles an hour. The Chalmers begandragging at 11:80 o'clock, and

DRAGGED FIVE MILES,having lost a third anchor and 35 fathomsof cable at 1:30 o’clock. She went ash'resoon after, rolling heavily, with tbe seabreaking over her deck. Tue crew of ninemen thought she was going to pieces,but did not leave tbe vessel. Hersteering apparatus was broken, the rud-der post being wrenched out ol place.She is lying with her head to the south,and last night had 13 feet of water in herhold. The vessel is 20 years old and be-longs In Boness. She may get offsafely but it is not certaiu.

DRAGGED FROM HER ANCHORAGE.The British bark. N. Mosher, Capt.

Cook, in ballast, was lying at anchor inHie roads. She dragged three miles andlost an anchor betore striking on thenorth end of Tybee island. TheCaptain was in Savannnh at thetime She is Insured and is owned byDobell A Cos., of which tirm Capt. J. K.Clarke, of this city, is a member. Lastnight the tugs Constitution and Maudhailed her but did not try to pull her off,sne having 10 feet of water in her hold.She is 21 years old. She is lying in a dan-gerousposition, but may get off.

The Norwegian bark l’atent, which islying at quarantine station, was

STOVE IN AMIDSHIPS,and a large hole was knocked in tbe bowby bumping against tile wharf.The British steamship Marion. Capt.Jcffels, was riding at anchor above quar-antine a short distance. When struok bythe hurricane she dragged and struck oilthe lower end of the west side ot Longisland. The tug Constitution went to herassistance and at sundown pulled her off.

The pilot boat Jones was carriedwell up on shore on the upper

Ding island on the west, side, hutcame off at high water last night withoutassistance.

In the South channel the damage wasmuch less than in the North. The excur-sion steamer St. Nicholas was anenoredbetween Cockspur and McQueen islands.Sbe had two anchors out and put on 40pounds of steam, but even then could notkeep from dragging. The waves dashedup over the deck and she was blownashore opposite Fort Pulaski, but cameoff at high water about sun rise.

The pilot boat Wilder was blown on thetnarsb on McQueen’s Island and she toogot off at high tide.

AT TYBKK.On Tybee Island the wind blew at one

time 70 miles an hour. All day a sandstorm prevailed and the weather lookedthreatening. Old residents scanned theclouds closely and expressed tears of arepetition ol the storm of 1881. Afterdark the wind blew harder, and as thenight wore on it became a gale. At firstit came from the northeast, but laterveered around to thenorth. Theresidentswent to bed with anxious minds. Luckilythe hurricane was fiercest about thelime of low tide and the island escaped adeluge by a tidal wave, as occurred fouryears ago, when the hurricane struck. Ty-bee at high tide.

The storm wasRAGING AT TWO O’CLOCK.

Tbo wooden houses swayed perceptibly,and oneowned by Charles Carroll, near thewharf and west of the railroad track,cracked at each violent gust. Sirs. Car-roll w as alone, and fearing that the bousewould be blown down, she leftIt a lew minutes before 3.Tbe was then howling amongthe trees, and the rain was falling in tor-rents. The air was lull of sand andpieces of wood which tbe wind picked upand hurled with great force across theisland.* Mrs. Cart oil made her waythrough the dark to the house of a nearneighbor, Mr. D. J. Fatten. One hourand a half later tbe storm seemed at itsheight, and with a crash Ca roll’s housewas blown down and completely demol-ished. Almost everything in it was a to-tal wreck. The building was two StortMhigh and contained eleven room*, it wasvalued at $1,690. and the furniture atS4OO.

Yesterday the former site of tho housewas covered with nine*of broken timbersand furniture. I'hivc chairs and a mat-tress were the only articles saved.

SMALL 111 II.DINGS WRECKED.A kitchen attached to ibe dwelling of

W. T. Daniels was also wrecked, it wasoccupied by Charles Johnson, colored, andhi wife. They esi-aiied only a fow min-utes tietore the building fell.

Tne wind swept most furiously acrosstbe west side of the island. Col. Estili’sstable*weie unroofed, and soon after thebuilding was blown down and wrecked.The gale tore away a portion of thewharf shid an 1 dropped it in the fiver.

On tbe eust side the hotels and resi-deuces suffered little. ’ Those of the resi-dents who were there in |K*t thought thatfor a little while that night the storm wasworse than four years ago. The guestsin the hotels were hadlv frightened, butno nusnap occurred. Sirs. Collins badthe itarm west escape, for while she wasgoing to her neighbor's house she wasneat it btowi Imm Um watar. a pet |*sthat wa* In the bouse was taken out withtwo legs broken, after daylight, when thewind ceased.

THE CITY OT SAVANNAH IN PORT,The steamship City of Navanneli, from

Sew York, arrived last Blfhlßt k o’olook.twelve hours overdU”. title ie|xirted sDu. h night and a heavy sea. she was•t'lies by th* hurricane off Charlestonabou midnight. Tbe wind was blowing

toward shore, and she was headed out tosea. A heavy rain was falling and theship pitched from side to side, to the con-sternation of the passengers, almost allOf whom hpeatne sick. Tue waves rolledhigh and broke over the steamer. Theofficers say that it was one ofthe roughest nights they ever ex-perienced. The vessel shippedheavy sens and the water poured inthrough the broken headlights. The sailswere split and the railing carried away,and had not tbe steamer been one of tbestaunchest of ships she could not havelived through the gale. Her cargo shiftedand gave ner a tremendous list. Thewater that she shipped poured throughthe cabins and found its wav to the hold,damaging the cargo. At 3 o’clock thestorm was most furious, and fifteen menwere at work bailing out the cabins,which were flooded.

Cspt. Daggett kept his vessel headingoff the const and handled her with greatnerve and skill. Due of the passengerssaid that “for hours they hung on theverge of death.”

RESOLUTIONS* OF THANKS.After the danger was over the passen-

gers adopted the following resolutionsexpressing their gratitude to Capt. Dag-gett and bis officers and crew.

Umpired, By tli passengers on the steamship City of Savannah, that in view of thesudden am! terrible storm whioh ha-ju-t beenweathered aud h* now worn away, they aresatisfied that the preservation of the slop andeargo, and of the lives of numerous passen-gers, are entirelydue to the unselfishheroismand persis'ent devotion of the able com-mander, officers, and crew of the ship.

Ht*olre>l That the passengers of the Cityof Savannah recognize in the management ofthe ship the secret of ihsirrescue from a end- |den and appalling death; and that they willcherish with gratitude and affection the nameof Commander Daggett, and the memory ofhm courage,his decision and force of charac-ter, and tns consummate skill by whioh bewas enabled to save much property and manyprecious lives.

THE GROUNDED CHALMERS.Yesterday afternoon Dr. McFarland,

the health officer, went down tbe river onthe tug Constitutionand boarded the barkChalmers. Being from an infected district,Mexico, she is subjected to quarantineregulations. The vessel is out of provis-ions, and the Captain intended to comeinto Savannah to get a fresh supply. Hisvessel will now he detained ior quite atime in getting off and repairing. Capt.Stone says that he has had no sickness onhoard since sailing.

In coming in the river Sunday withoutproceeding to quarantine he viofated, un-wittingly, he claims, quarantine rules.Had he gone direct to the quarantine sta-tion his vessel would undoubtedly havebeen sate.

TRAINS DELAYED.South-bound trains on the Charleston

and Savannah railroad were seriously de-layed. The fast mail due at 7o’clook was several hours late,delayed by trees falling across the track.When tbe train left Charleston at 4o'clock the city had not yet felt the forceot tbe storm. The rain was tailing Intorrents, and the tracks were submerged,but no serious damage had yet b“en done.Tbe last mall was the last train out ofCharleston. The bridge over the Ashleywas swept away by the cyclone, whichstruck the city an hour later and travelwas cut off. Construction and wreckingtrains were at once sent out to repair thetrack. Master of Transportation Craig,with a gang of men, was at the scene, amiit was expected that everything would bein readiness to transfer the passengersand mails of New York train, whichlett Havannah last night.

On the Savannah, Florida and Westernrailway and Central railroad, no damagewas reported.

After getting off of Long Island theMarion steamed up the river and madefast below the City of Bridgeton’s dock,but in so doing struck the Bridgeton aftand damaged her, but it is not believed tobe serious.

THE WM. LAWRENCE DISABLED.The steamship City of Savannah reports

having passed at 1 p. m. yesterday 20miles east northeast of Martin’s Industrylightship the Italian bark MoriaDuina, ofOastellamare, Italy, and irom I.icota,Italy, bound for Port Royal. The barkwas partially di-masted anil her sailswere blown away, but she did not wantassistance. The steamer also reports thatat 4 p. m. yesterday she passed the steam-ship VVtn. Lawrence, from Baltimore forthis port, 15 miles from the lightship with5 feet ot water In her hold and flres out.She was pumping the water out with tbedonkey engine. The Lawrence reportedthat, she would }igbt fires under her mainboiler and proceed. She likewise declinedassistance.

TKACK OF THE STORM.The cyclone was probably formed in the

South Atlantic ocean north of the WestIndia islands and traveled duo west untilit reached the apex of Its course, de-scribed bv an elliptical curve, at a pointnortheast of Jacksonville and southeastfrom Savannah.

At 3 o’clock Monday afternoon whenthe wind at Jacksonville was blowing 40miles per hour that station was on theleft of the storm centre, which was mov-ing slowly up the coast on a line east ofnorth. At It o’clock at night the wind atSavannah was from the east, showingthat the

CENTRE OF THE STORMwfis due south. The barometer at thathour was 29.81 inches. At t o’clockyesterday morning the wind was fromthe noribeast, with a velocity of 21 miles,the barometer having fallen in the previ-ous two hours to 29.71. The change inthe direction of the wind from east tonortheast indicated that tbe storm centrewas swinging away front the ooast, andthat, its course would be by the sen in-stead of inland. At 2 o’clock the barome-ter had fallen to 29.62, and the windwas from the north, blowing20 miles. The wind continued to back to-wards the northwest during the nexthour. At 8 o'clock its direction wasnorth northwest. Its velocity was 24miles, the haroinete- standing st. 29 51.At 4 o’clock it went us low as 29.38, thewind being from the northwest with a

VELOCITY OF 56 MILES.This velocity became apparent at 3:45

o’clock and was kept up 30 minutes, oruntil 4:15 O'clock,

After that the barometer began to rise,w hile the winf continued to heck, thevelocity at the Janie time decreasing. At5 o clock the direction of the wind waswest northwest, tbe barometer showingan atmospheric pressure of 29.50, andthe velocity of the wind was 10 miles. Asthe wind hacked around from toe easttowards the northwest, tbe storm centraadvHiici <1 from the south, taking a north-east course, and left Savannah on its left.

A comparison in the reading of thebarometer at Jacksonville and Savannah,When the wind attuined its greatestvelocity at the respective stations, showsthat thestorm passed

NEARER TO SAVANNAHthan to Jacksonville. The barometer wasmuch lower at Savannah yemerdav morn-ing at t o'clock than at Jeekeonvtlle onthe preceding afternoon at 3 o'clock.The velocity of the wind bong somuch greater here than at Jacksonville,also Indicated that Savannah was nearerthe centre of the storm than the othercity hud twen. Charleston was, however.Immediately In its track, but owing to theinterruption of telegraphic communica-tion. the report from the signal atationwaa not, received at Savannah, hence nocomparisons cau at present tie made to■how what the relative velocity of thestorm was between the two places.

AFTER PASSING CHARLESTONthe storm continued in a northeasterlyeoursH inland, leaving Snilinvllle, N, C,,on It* right. At this station at 3 o’clockyesterday afternoon the wind wua blow-ing from tbe eoutb at 55 miles an hour.When the grealeel velocity repotted atSimMivlllo and Savannah arc considered

it seems reasonable to suppose thateach ot the stations were rela-tively about the same distancefrom the storm centre, one being on theleft and the other on the right. If thecyclone continues to move towards thenortheast at tbe same speed which markedits progress during tbo 24 hours ending at3 o’clock yesterday aiternoon, It will passin the vicinity of Norfolk, Va., this after-noon.
