The weather had been fitful and eli;illy all day, with rain at intervals. About four o'clock the w ind increased to a hurricane, from the southeast, and for rn hour spread havoc and devastation on every side. Old citi zens who recollect the "treat irale" of 1815, tell ub that the force of wind yesterday seemed fully equal to that remarkable tempest, the only difference liein;' in the duration of the storm. The tide fortunately was out when the gale com menced its severity; but the wind sent the surges up through the Great Bridge with the ra pidity of a torrent. For more than an hour the tide rose a foot every ten minutes, until.'.tlirec hours before the time for hiuli tide, the water stood within a few inches of the lloor of the horse railroad depot on Weybossct bridge At this time the wind shifted to the westward, and abated its fury, and soon the flood began to subside. Had the gale continued another hour at its highest force, wo see no reason why the water would not have touched as high a point as at the great Hood of 1815. As it happily proved, the tide came no nearer than about six feet of that famous high water mark. Thclgale yesterday con tin nod about one hour: that in 1K15 continued its fearful severity for three hours. We fear that the loss of life yesterday was much more serious than in the previous gale. We have the record of several fatal casiialth f, and hear of others not yet authenticated. The loss of property has also been very great. Every citizen suffers in the loss of hundreds' of beautiful trees iu the the streets; while scarcely a garden or orchard has escaped. The loss in buildings is largo, and much perishable merchandise has been sub merged and ruined. The reports from the grow ing crops in the country round about we may be sure will be a sad one; aud we shall look with dismal forebodings for news from those who go down to the sea in ships. Our accounts embrace little beyond our own immediate vicinity. The telegraph is entirely prostrated in every direc tion. Since 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon not a signal has been received from anywhere, and much labor must bo requisite to restore the ample communication with the great world which we have heretofore enjoyed. The Utile In the City of Providence. The tide rose very rapidly from 4 to 5 o'clock, when the gale was at the highest, and soon after 5 it overflowed the wharves und filled the cellars on Dyer street, and the other buildings and stores as far up as Weyl osset street, the Hood increasing every mement and extending from the wharves nearly to Broad street on Dorrauco, and overflowing the large area from Market square to the Rhode Island Bleachery, just below the screw factory and the Providence Machine Company's works, extending westward to Eddy street aud overflowing that for most of the dis tance, until the wind lulled, at about ft o'clock, and at half-past ft the water began to recede aud fell rapidly from that time, although it was not high water until quarter past 9. Of course, the damage in this district was Immense, of which we can give only a partial account or estimate this evening. All perishable goods In the cellars of the warehouses were ruined, the streets were washed and gnlliod in many places, the build ings on the wharves at the coal-yards and the wharves, too, were more or less injured; every thing that would float was washed away or mnviul frnm Ha tilivpp. Tbrt lnn'fl rilatforms of C the coal-scales were floated oil and lodged on Dyer and Dorrauco streets, aud all the streets in that vicinity were more or let's strewn with the wrecks and debrin of tho gale. The employes of the lumber and coal-yards were very busy re- i moving uie uoi sen iruiu tuts riuoics, uu ui nunu I were saved, though some had to swim a short II distance to reach a sale place. Chimneys were V blown down, houses unroofed, and trees iip- rooted, in this vicinity, as well as all other parts ( of the city; the instances are so numerous that I we can only make this general allusion to it at I this time. ; On tho east side the water reached the lime in j the storehouse on Ueorgc V. Hall tfc Co.'h J wharf, where some 150 barrels were stored, and the lime slacked and set the building ou tire, which was soon put out by steamer No. 2, with ' out greatly damaging the building, and the balance of the lime was then removed. The larger part of the east wall, above Wecden's block, of the new Atlantic Insurance Co.'s block, corner of Exchange and Westminister streets, fell about $ o'clock, with a loud crash, ana crushed in about forty feet of the roof of Wecden's block, nearly ruining Odd Fellows' Hall in the upper etory. The Odd Fellows lose about 15(H. The freight depot of the Hartford, Providence, aud FishkHl Railroad Company was completely blown down about 4 o'clock. There were three men in the depot at the time, and one of them, Mr. D. B. Fisher, the night watchman, was con siderably, though not dangerously injured. The , depot was of brick, and of the greater portion of i' the lino of the south wall, there is nothing left , but the granite foundation. Three curs aud some freight were in the depot, aud aro consi ! derably damaged. Part of the roof aud fourth story of Messrs. , Rose & Walker's tannery under the brow of j Federal Hill was blown over about half past 4 ' in the afternoon; and the one-story hidcuouse was also demolished. Mr. Walker aud three others were in the attic of the building, and four men were in the hldehouse at the time of the Necldent, but none of them were injured. Mr. Rose estimated the damaire to the buildings and stock ut from frtHKX) to 10,0ui. We are especially sorry to annouuee that the roof of the Home for Aged Women was takeu off, and much damage done. Tho Hutchinson Family were at that lime iu the home delighting the old ladies with their iilcasant songs." Just as ono of the gratified old ladles had asked to hear tho Hutchinson Family ."Song, the crash came. One wing of the Oriental Mill, in North Providence, was unroofed and the wall on the gable end blown in, Injuring several persons. Two boys were covered with the falling bricks und mortar; ono of them, named Henry Hhanlcy, received a compound fracture of tho pelvis and ome severe flesh wounds, and Is In a critical condition. The roofs of the towers on the Stewart Street Baptist Church were blown oft. One lunded ou the new Bt. Stephen' Church building. The other was carried with great force across High street, taking in itacourso a portion of tho roof f Mr. N. F. Potter s house, and landing in tho V front window of Wllloughby g dry goods store. A young gin, ugeu auuut iuurteeu.was thrown down by the gale, on Valley street, Olnoyvlllo, anil KSI badlv lniured that she lived but & few moments ajterwurds. It U lo reported that another young girl was crushed and killed by a tree w hich fell upon her. nnd that a man was killed by falling or being blown from a houe, notn in c iineyvuic, niso; nut wc were unauie to learn the names of cither of tho parties. The l-'nlon Railroad Company has suffered severely. The car house at the Cranston Print Works was partially demolished, injuring three cars. About sixty feet of the barn at F.lmwood was blown off: and the South Providence barn was also partially unroofed. Travel was much impelled by the broken trees, and three cars were left out all night, because of this embargo. The cotton mill of Hon. .fames Y. inlth, in Elmwood, was partially unroofed, and a frightened girl jumped from a second story window and was badly sprained. A boy named Hughes was killed near the Bristol Railroad depot, Fox Point, by a gate or fence being blown down upon him. A man named Murty Mullivnn was severely Injured at the same time. John Shehan, a man residing on Fremont street, was struck by a fulling chim ney, aud so badly Injured that there Is little hope of his recover'. A house on" Bellevuc avenue, owned by Bel lows Bros., and lately erected nt a cost of fiKKXi, was completely demolished. There wore four men engaged ini-ido tho building when it was blown down. One of the men, John (. Clark, was crushed by tho falling in of the roof, and very badly Injured in tho spine. Ho can hardly recover. Ezra Walker, employed nt Horace French's paiut shop on Benefit street, whilo at tempting to shut a large outride door in the second story of tho building, was taken, together with the door, by the wind, hurled into au ad joining yard, and severely, it not fatally, in jured. He was about thirty-five or forty years of age. Cornelius and George Mahoney," father nnd son, No. ftl Front street, were severely in jured by the blowing down of a barn belonging to the former. A portion of the building fell upon them, rendering them insensible for a time. 'Ihe father received several bruises aud quite severe contusions. but escaped without any bones being broken. The son, George, was the most severely Injured. A two and one-half story wooden tenement house on Republican street, near the railroad bridge on Atwell's avenue, owned by Dr. New hall, was blown entirely from its foundations, and lies on the ground a complete wreck The house was occupied by three families, though at tho time of the fall only one woman was in the house. She was considerably hurt by the falling plastering, thoiurh how seriously we did not ascertain. A portion of the tower of the Catho lic church, on High street, was carried off. That portion of the spireof the Chesnut Street Methodist Episcopal church above the clock was blown down, carrying two faces of the clock (which stopped at live exactly), and fell on tho roof of the church, breaking it in. and then on to the roof of a shed in the rear of W. H. Greene's drug store, which it crushed. A por tion of the roof of the Central Baptist Church, on Broad street, was blown oft. There were scores of roofs torn from build ings, and a largo number of persons injured. In addition to those we have mentioned, but a want of space limits to these extracts only. The Commotion In the Harbor of Providence. During the height of the gale the vessels were in great danger, and It appeared almost Impossi ble for some of them to escape shipwreck, but fortunately no lives were lost that we have heard of, and no very serious damage was done to tho vessels. The little steamer Adela was coming up, und was blown into Hill's wharf aud made fast to a schooner, just in time to save her from going ashore. The schooner Lizzie Major broke adrift from tho lower ferry wharf, and drove against the schooner Harmouia at the Worcester Rail road wharf, 6taving in her stem and carrying away davits, and doing other injury, and losing her own jib-boom; schooner Nellie Treat broke adrift, ran afoul of other vessels, lost jib-boom aud davits; schooners Anna Shcpard. Helen Mar, and British schooner Britaunla, were all adrift, afoul, and received more or less damage; the Helen Mar ran Into the stern of schooner George F'ales, aud loth were badly chafed; schooner Paragon broke from her anchorage and drifted afonfof the other vessels In the stream; schooner C. 'J. Brooks, lying at Gas Company's wharf, west side, broke from her moorings and fouled with other vessels, receiving considerable In jury. The steam tug Charlotte and Isabella arrived up from below about 7 o'clock, and reported seeing a sloop go ashore on Conimlcut Point and break to pieces, and two schooners ashore between Gaspee and Field's Point, but could not ascertain the names of either vessel. There are Indefinite rumors of other vessels being ashore below, of which we have yet received no au thentic account. A man from the schooner M. B. Mahoney, from Baltimorc.bound for this port, reports that his vessel fell In with a schooner outward bound oft Field's Foint yesterday afteruoon, about 4 o'clock, flying a flag of distress. His captain, he states, sent a bout to tue uistrcssea vessel, when it was learned that her commander, whose name we aro unable to learn, as well as the name of the schooner, was struck on tho head during the gale by the "jib block," which laid open his skull for several inches. The injured man fell under the blow, and up to the time of our Informant's departure for this city in quest of surgical aid, he had shown no signs of life. Incident. Many cases of narrow escapes aud of slight personal injury are related, which we cannot this morning particularize. Ono old man was blown down and his head came under the wheels of a Pawtucket horse-car, which was stopped just In tune to save ms me, nut no was badly bruised. A woman had a child blown from her arms down an embankment in the Fifth Ward, but It was picked up by a young man and re turned to the mother without great apparent injury. The llnrrlrnne In la wtiirket, Conn. The fearful storm of wind und rain of yester day did a large amount of damage in this vil lage. The steeple of tho Universalis church oil High street, from the bell deck upwards, was blown over, and in its fall crushed in a portion of the roof of the house of Mrs. William Perry, which adjoins the church; the inmates of the house received waruing soon enough to vacate it before the steeple lcll, and escaped uninjured. The remains ol the steeple fill Mrs. Perry's yard, and are a shapeless mass of ruins. The oell, in its fall, struck one of the front corners ol the roof of the church, crushing that in, and landed in the church yard right side up. The steeple of the Central Falls Congrega tional Church was blown oil level with the roof, und is a total wreck. The machiue shop of Col lins Brothers, near the old bridge in Central Falls, is entirely demolished. The building was a long one, and' two stories In height; the wind blew the walls apart anil the roof fell between them, burying materials, machinery, etc., la general coufusion. Tho inmates, who had been at work iu the shop, succeeded In getting out In season to prevent personal injuries. At the High Street Baptist Church, now building, the wind tore away tho staging and moved both of tho towers so much as to leave them considera bly out of place, and In a bent position. 1 he l)liml-r In HonIoii -Hchool-houjeii, Church Mcrpiia, huiI 'free Ulowu Over. Correspondence from Boston, dated yester day, Kays: Ono of the severest gales ever known in Bos ton visited this city yesterday, and extended for miles iu every direction. Chimneys, awnings, sign-boards, branches of trees, and slate were flying in our streets in such quantities that it was unsafe to travel, and not a few accidents occurred. Tho bulk of the rain which fell came very fortunately when tho tide wus low, or tho Inundutlon of the cellars in tho low part of tho city would have been great. In several districts In rear gardens, and iu tho suburbs, apple, pear, and peach trees were etrippod of their fruit, aud a damage of many thousands of dollars was occasioned. Thousands of fine shade trees were ruined, and fences were destroyed in many places. Deatrnrtlon of the Collnciiin. Among the first buildings to Buffer in the city proper was the Coliseum, shortly after 0 o'clock. Mr. Wilson, the man in charge of the structure, assisted by two boys, went to check, if possible, tho stream of water which was pouring in upon the organ at the C'ist end. At that time he ex peetcdmomcntarily that the wind would force the windows in, nnd was hesitating whether to longer remain beneath the roof. He, however, concluded that he would lock the safe before leaving, and was just proceeding to do so when the east end gave way with a tremendous crash. Almost immediately after, the sudden rush of nir which followed demolished the w est cud and the larger portion of the roof, with the exception of n small part in the centre, which, although considerably damaged, remained standing. The walls were somewhat strained, although retain ing their original position. Fortunately Mr. Wilson nnd tue boys escaped without injury. At the time of the" falling of the roof, and for some time after, it was almost Impossible lor a person to approach tho building, as the strong wind that prevailed iu many cases lifted men from their feet, and in several instances men re ceived slight bruises from flying timbers and boards, which were hurled through the air at a frightful pace, Berkeley street in many eases being piled high with the (Ithrix. The news of its fall did not spread very rapidly, nnd late in the evening only a small crowd had collected in the Immediate vicinity. The organ built by the Messrs. Hook, anil used during the Peace Ju bilee, prove an entire loss; the big drum Is ren dered worthless; and the remaining part of the building is in such a condition as to require im mediate pulling down. The decorations, which have remained in it since the Jubilee, were also ruinel, and tho owner, Messrs. James iV. Sears, sustain a heavy loss. Its unexpected demolition will ulso prevent the intended disposition of it after the fashion of the Crosby Opera House. Soon after the fall of the Coliseum rumors of Injuries to various persons became rife. It came t the cars of Mr. Granville M. Clark, living at No. 18 St. James avenue, that a boy had been hurt, and he went out to render assistance if it was possible. Visitors to the Coliseum during Jubilee week will remember a long, heavy plank walk running through M. James avenue to the Coliseum. Over this Mr. Clark wa pursuing his way when a terrific git of wind lifted a section of it on which he wasstanding as high a9 a lamp post, and, falling, cainc upon the uuulortuuatc man, striking him upon the head and crushing his skull. The incident was witnessed by parties iu the Coliseum, and hastening out, they took the nn fortunate man into the building. "Assistance was sent for to the police-station, and a litter was sent over with a view ot bearing him to tho hospital, but ere It arrived he had been recog nized and taken home, where he shortly after ward died, without for a moment regaining con sciousness. The number of other personal in juries was remarkably small, considering the general dcstruetiveiiess of the storm. Mr. Nathan Morris was struck by a sign and severely injured about the head. Another gen tleman was hurt in a similar manner. The Gnlc iu the llnrbor. The gale in the harbor was one of the most terrific that has been experienced here for thirty years, and the fact that no very serious danger was done to the shipping was owing to its short duration and from its occurrence on the ebb tide. Had it occurred at high water there would have been very serious loss to property on shore and afloat, but the greatest force of the wind fortunately prevailed at low tide, which conse quently lessened the danger and removed any apprehension of Injury to goods exposed ou the wharves and in some of the warehouses. The wind in the early part of the afternoon was fresh from the southeast In the bay, changing afterward to south, at which point it blew the hardest. But a few vessels were entering the harbor on the approach of the storm, and they were soon obliged to take in all their canvas and run for a secure anchorage. The inner harbor being more exposed to a southeast gale than if the wind blew from any other quarter, a short time only elapsed before a heavy, rough sea was rolling over the waters, the gale blowing In nearly a direct line from South Boston flats towards East Boston. The air was filled with the flying scud, and the white caps of the waves as they rolled across tho harbor were taken up and sent flying in every direction. Tho scene was one of grandeur, not unmixed with fear, for tho elements seemed rising to their full power to do the work of destruction. As the gale continued to rise the vessels moored iu the stream began to strengthen their ground-tackle, and additional anchors were thrown out to with stand the increasing violence of tho gale. The wind came in sudden gusts, with momentary lulls, which appeared only to give fresh vigor to the blast that lol lowed. It was soon apparent that nuchors would not hold on much longer, and tho vessels exposed to the full force of the gale began to drift from their moorings up stream. The imminent danger of collision prompted the oiliccr of the United States reve nue tug Hamlin to put oil to tho rescue of some of them, but after three ineffectual efforts to render assistance she returned, it havlnir been found impossible to do anything, owing to the violence of the gale and the dUliculty of approach ing the drifting vessels withtheirchalus running out in every direction. About a dozen vessels were at one time dragging their anchors and drifting up stream before terrific gusts of wind, which swept everything before it. Many vessels were more or less injured, and there were not a few miraculous escapes. The Navy Yard suffered considerably from tho storm. A building outside ot the principal entrance on Water street was unroofed, and tho materials were throwu into the yard in a very promiscuous manlier, the sentry barely escaping by sticking to his box. Two chimneys on the lirst building in the yard fell, breaking through the roof. Several large trees were broken down near the commandant s ollice and the barracks. The roof and side of the ship house iu tho yard were blowu down. Incidental.

VcaU-h to The Keening TeUgraph Zanksvim.e, Ohio, Sept. 10. A terrible rail road accident occurred on Wednesday night, four miles cast of Cambridge, on the Central Ohio division of the Baltimore Kailrond, In which three lives were lost and two persons hor ribly mangled. The accident occurred by the colliding of the passenger train due here nt 8 o'clock P. M. and a locomotive which was sent out from Cain bridge station. Three persons were on the loco motive, 'viz.: Wilson Wiedeman, the engineer; James B. Guthrie, freight conductor in charge; and John Leatherinan, fireman. The collision occurred iu a heavy fog. Lcathcrman was in stantly killed, Guthrie was so badly injured that he died at : o'clock yesterday morning, Wiede man sustained a fracture of his risrht leg, be tween the knee and ankle-joint. These three men, together with Jesse George, who was brakemau on tho passenger train, aud who was Injured to such an extent as to render amputa tion of both legs necessary, were citizens of this city. An unknown mau who, to avoid paying, had taken passage on the baggage car platform, was instantly killed and torn to atoms. From papers found in his valise his name is supposed to be Trainor. The victims of tho disaster, with the exception of the man supposed to be Trainor, arc well and favorably kuown in this commu nity, aud much sympathy is felt for their fami lies.

Sixty dead bodies have been rescued from the fatal pit and three score widowed wives sit by desolate hearths this evening. Could all this misery have been avoided Is a ques tion that, might as easily be answered as asked. It certainly could. Coal mines are at all times, of course, subject to risks, and those who engage to work In them arc satlslled to take the consequences of whatever natural casualties attend tho operation of mining coal. .Mnny of these casualties the miner Instinct and experience will teach him to avoid; but where human ingenuity, prompted by a spirit of greed, provides only Just such means lor the miner as will enable him to work at the least possible expense on the part of his em ployer and at the greatest risk on his own, no fore- tiiougiit or intelligence can provide against tho ac cidents that are likely to occur. An air hole at an expense of from 1 10,000 to tl5,000 sunk In the Avon dale coal mine would have saved perhaps every man In the mine. The short-sighted and Inhuman policy that rei uses to muke this simple provision against emergencies at any time likely to arise must have a terrible record In the long run. lint Avondalo Is not un exception to other mines. All around this sec tion of country are mines to each one of which but one shaft is attached, aud when the means of es cape are cut on" in that quarter no hope remains for the men at work below. Mines In this country seem to lie constructed ou the principle of getting out the most coal at the least expense, and without a particle of consideration as to the health aud safety of the miner. Had we any such deep shafts aud extensive galleries among tho mines of this State as they have in Knglaud, accidents like this of Avon dale would be of frequent occurrence, and of equally appalling horror. ihe Delaware and Lackawanna corporation Is immensely wealthy, and has another mine, called the Taylorvllle shaft, run on precisely the same principle as the Avondale mine, and liable at any time to the same tearful accident. It remains to be seen whether this corporation will take any steps even in compliance with the statute law of the State to tender their mines a little less like huge traps for human life. The feeling on this head is confined to no particular class. Men ask, is it not about time that this recklessness of life should cease? if the wretches sent to the State Legislature prefer using human life as a means of extorting black-mail to doing their honest duty, Is that any reason why the companies should feel themselves at liberty to dis regard every means of providing agatust such ca lamities as this at Avondale? The most sensible advice that could be given the miner in the matter is to reject all solicitation to go into any mine con structed alter the fashion of the one at Avondale. V. P. Herald. The Feeling Among the .Miner. Says the New York IVnivi' correspondent: oue other fact must be recorded. There are ol hers of these mines that have no separate air-holes, there are thousands of miners who have but the one ave nue of escape from threatening dangers ; and death lurks everywhere in the haunts of industry In al this teeming region. 1 The miiiui'8 know all this, and have known it all for years, but probably have now lor the first time fully realized the full import of these terrible facts. Hence the feeling they have manifested since Mon day is excusable, if not Justifiable. They are as a body morose, irritable, almost savago and dangerous. For the time, cupltul has no tights that labor Is bound to respeet, and the miners everywhere are ab solute masteis. They take possession of the trains on all the railroads, and they are dictators at the scene of the disaster. Mr. Rhodes, the Sherill' of Luzerne county ; Mr. Wadhams, the acting Coroner; Mr. Storrs, the representative of the owners, seem to be puppets iu their hands. The miner are for the time the law. They are not utterly without rea son, and as yet have made no extravagant demands, but It Is plain to see that they do not Intend to allow the least shrinking from the fullest Investigation of the disaster. An Instance or two will show exactly how these men fell. When the heap of bodies was discovered in the gangway, the first reached, with oue excep tion, was that of fivan Hughes, the "inside boss;" it was passed by many times aud was not touched until many of the bodies more remote had been picked up and carried by it A party of correspon dents of the press from distant cities essaying to enter the line for the purpose or gaining intelligence were met with a torrent of abuse, and only accom plished their purpose at a great personal hazard. Coro ner Wadhams, attempting to show a party of gentle men the tunnel, was driven from Its moutt) by the miners, and himself and party assailed as "paper collar wretches." A decent suit of clothes, or more properly a dress showing the wearer to be some thing else than a miner, seemed enough to provoke the wrath of these poor fellows, who have been un manned by the horror that had come upon their comrades, and the perils surrounding themselves. There will, of course, be some subsidence of the pre sent bitterness, but tho most sanguine anticipate that the inquest, which will commence on Saturday, will be marked with extreme earnestnessat least. Am on the Families or the Dead. Frvm the Hcranton Republican, 9th. It Is utterly impossible adequately to describe the terrible scenes of bitter anguish among the women aDd children outside the lines during the time of tho hoisting and bringing out of the dead. Such terrltlu and heartrending cries of agony and distress, such weeping aud wailing, It falls to the lot of but few to witness. All night long the eries of women and children were heard upon the extensive walls of the colliery, and up and down the road that skirts the hillside. It is impossible to convey any correct Idea of the dreariness of this night scene, broken by the sobbings and moanlngs of these distressed widows and orphans ; the whole sufficient to appal the senses and chill the blood. Many of the distressed women, acknowledging and realizing to Its full extent tho awful situation of their husbands and sons, were Hitting and walking in front of their houses all night long, uttering low, plaintive, and pitiful Hounds. It was almost Impossible to get their atten tion even for a moment in order to express a hope for better things to eome out of their uncertainty. They realized the worst. Hope was gone t he last ray extinguished. "Piity my poor llttlo ones" was a constant expression, which will be appreciated with double and treble force when we consider the destitute condition occasioned by tho strike which has but just ended. All tlmse homes are In a most miserable condition. These people need immediate help. During the day, while the bodies were lieiug taken out, tho expressions of countenance of these poor creatures in waiting along the line were awful. As one body alter another was taken out and un covered for recognition the pent up agony would seem to burst forth anew in tho most distressing manner. When it was announced that the body of Mr. KvatiH was found, with a son embraced In each arm, the anguish of that wife and mother was most aitlictiug, as she ran up the road dlHtraeied with grief. Other anxious faees are here there aro wives looking for husbands and sous, mother look ing for their dead boys.uinl sisters looking for fathers and brothers. In passing one house, one poor fran tic woman was groaning unucr tue nuriien or a lost husband and sons,aud uttering the pitiful cry of "Who will care for my poor children now?" That be seeching, heartrending petition Is often heard upon very hand: "O (jod, bo merciful !" "Have pity I" It Is siiltlcient to chill Hie blood in tho vein to be hold such scenes and hear such cries. One woman was seen standing with a little oue lu her arms aud three or four tugging awoy at her skirts, lisping "papa," "papa;" she, in tho depths of her despair, seemed Intently ga.iug with upturned countenance upon some bright object of a cherished faith. There were no tears at Avondale yesterday; the depths of agony were too great for such au expression, for tho wild and impassioned grief seems as If it would rend the very soul and distract the mind. It cannot run away in tears. The hardest heart must be moved to oiler BiibHtaniiol pity to these poor unfortunate. Come forward quickly. A good work Is yet before us. The wires will soon complete the list of suf ferers.
