Zcallind..Hurricane' Lasting Four.,
ys.
By way of Panama we have lats.r mail dates
from Australia and New Zealand. A continued
storm of wind and rain, hurricane and floods of
unprecedented magnitude had taken place , in
New South Wales and Now Zealand. The
Sydney and Wellington papers furnish full ac
counts of this disastrous hurricane.
[From the Sydney Empire.. July . 1.1
The steamship Ruahine, which leaves the port
of Sydney this day for Panama, will convoy in
telligesee which-must be most shocking and dis
tressing, not only to chose who.feel an interest
in the prosperity of these coldnies, but to all
who have regard for humanity. This country has
been visited by a more, terrible flood than any that
has been known since the first white man set his
foot upon the soil, and its results have been most
desolating, making whole families homeless,
destroyed life and property to an extent which is
as yet beyond calculation. When the Kaikoura
left Sydney, on the let June, it was noted that
the rain had continued, almost without intermis
. *ion, for two months; but up to that time no
great fears of destructive floods were entertained,
though business was interrupted by the wet
weather, and the continuous downfall of water
caused general inconvenience. The Kaikoura had
severe weather on her voyage to Wellington, but
left that place for Panama on the Bth of June
with 65 passengers and 14,500 ozs. of gold. The
weather continued bad on this coast, and on
Wednesday, the 9th of June, culminated in a
storm which has been described as a hurricane,
and which continued for four days. Great fears
were entertained in the city of Sydney that the
low-lying lands of the country moat exposed to
floods by reason of numerous water courses fall
ing through them, and the, narrowness and cir
cuitous course of the outlet to the sea, would be
inundated; but no one expected that this was the
beginning of the most disastrous flood that had
ever occurred in New South Wales, and that the
sympathies of the people of the country would be
tasked to a degreebeyond anything that had ever
been previoucnown. Yet so it has proved.
'tEttic Juns., , ,- -accounts -,-reaeb
Sidney which startled and alarmed the whole of
the inhabitants, but which, unhappily, proved to
be true. The whole of the Valley of the Rawkes
bury River had been flooded to a height unknown
and unrecorded by the oldest inhabitant or by
history. The town of Windsor was, surrounded
by water, and, so sudden had been the rush of
the floods from the high lands, in consequence of
the previous saturation of the ground, the far
mers and their families had to lice for their lives.
abandoning all they possessed to the raging
waters. The incidents that occurred were
most shocking. In one case a farmer sat upon
the roof of his house with his family for twenty
hours, holding his youngest child in his arms
until the infant died from the effects of cold and
exposure, for the rain was still pouring down in
torrents, and the whole of the surrounding land
was one wide sea of water. The father then had
to throw his dead child into the flood and take up
another in the hope of preserving it. On Saturday
morning, the 22d, the house gave way, and was
swept down with the flood, drowning the mother
and nine children. The father andfour others
were saved by the boats which had been sent off
to rescue these unfortunate sufferers. B this
time the whole of the valley was inundated, and
the fertile district or Richmond presented the ap
pearance of a great lake. Fears were felt that the
town of Windsor itself, where at this time some
thousands of persons were congregated, would
be involved in the general devastation, but hap
pily this did-not occur. The flood was so sudden
and so overwhelaiing, that all means or escape
seemed to be cut off, and many families, some eon
sistins of weak mothers and young children suffer
from severe illness, had to remain for hours on
the roofs of their houses during the severest
weather that has ever been known on this coast,
until succor could be given. As soon as this sad
intelligence was known, the government acted
with the utmost promptitude. Boats and crews
to man thein were despatched by railway to the
nearest point to. Windsor, and although_the flood
- was still rushing down in a torrent, and
a part of the railway was submerged, the
brave men who manned these boats succeeded
at last in reaching the scene of desolation, and In
rescuing very many who had almost given up all
hope.
The Trotting Horse Dexter.
[From Wilkes's Spirit August MI
This famous horse, by Hamiltonian, out of
the black Star mare, bred by Jonathan Haw
kins, sold when a colt to Mr. George Alley,
trained aril driven for some seasons by the
late Hiram Woodruff, and'more recently by
Budd Doble, has become the property of Mr. ,
Bonner; and will shortly pass into the unri
valed stable in which Lantern, the Flatbush
Maid, Lady Palmer, Peerless, Young Poca
hontas, and the Auburn Horse already abide.
As Dexter is about to retire from the turf, it
is unnecessary for us to do more than reite
rate the opinions often expressed in
these columns. We have long held that,
take him for all in all, he was .the..
most extraordinary trotter that ever appeared.
His combination of rare qualities excelled_all
former experience;and we ark
that there is but one horse living, if there is
one, that tan equal him in any one point.
The horse to which we refer is the well
known Auburn horse, also Mr. Bonner's pro
perty. In regard to these two horses, we
had the well-considered opinion of a truly
great authority, the late Hiram Woodruff,
who was a king among horsemen pi wisdom,
experience and sagacious intuition. He
pronounced Dexter, when the little horse was
but upon the threshold of his grand career,
as sure to be the King of the World;
and when his own footsteps were hastening
down toward the cypress shades and the clods
in the valley, he declared that of all he had
ever driven, the Auburn Horse was the fast
est. Relying upon the former of these
opinions, and giving sway to our owncon
victions we declared long ago to Mr. Bon
ner that Dexter would surpass, in every way,
the greatest performances that appeared in
the annals of the trotting, turf. And we now
add that we have full faith in Hiram's latest
opinion, viz.: that the Auburn Horse
was quite as fast, and, upon' straight
work, faster than Dexter himself. The
chestnut 'has not had the hand
ling; he is comparatively raw. Yet, he could
so. greatly impress, every man that .saw him
trot, and Hiram in particular, that.they all
declared such a rate was never seen save
when old Pocahontas, the pacer, distanced
Hero. Now, if such things could be done in
the green tree,what could be •done in the dry?
But the rare value of Dexter lies in his corn-
Tdetetiess—his perfect possession of all quali
ties, any one a which is usually considered
enough foi make a horse famous. In another
article, written in regard to a letter from
.an experienced turfman, we have given our
opinion of Dexter. It was written before we
knew of his trot at Buffalo, and that he had
been purchased by Mr. Bonner. We con
fess, however, that we have 'had a strong
suspicion for some thus that Dexter's last
race was nigh at hand. In view of all his
exploits; his saddle trots, his two miles to
wagon,his three-mile heats in mud, his fifth
heat in harness, when lame and sore, in 2m.
24-18.• ' his traveling of the country through
and through, and coming up as true as
steel. day after day, to repeat his
grand feats; his 'famous struggle against
Ethan Allen and running mate; his 2m.
l9s: on the half mile track before rendered
historic by the 20 miles of Capt. McGowan;
and his latest performance at Buffalo (2.111)
—we are at , a loss which to select as the
greatest. We praised him years ago to such
an extent that some called us crazy, and now
we are satisfied that we did not go far enough.
We are like Col. Clive, who, being ins
" peachedhefore the Commons of England for
taking , presents from the natives of India,
said, 'Mr. Speaker, considering the vast
treasures that were at my disposal, 1 stand
today aetou,taled at my own moderation."
