Terrible Storm---The Gun Boat
Buildings Destroyed --- The
Umpqua Badly Damaged--
Three Men Injured.
About two o'clock yesterday afternoon,
a terrific storm burst in a sudden manner
over our city, and in a few minutes the
streets were flooded with water. It had
been :Meting but a shmt time when a heavy
hail itorm eet in, which lasted for at least
halt an•hour. The rain lasted for about
an hour, after which we ventured out, and
the first news we heard was that the Gun
boat buildings in South Pittsburgh had
been destroyed, and several men killed.
Proceedin g to the spot we saw the build
ing in ruins. Upon inquiry we obtained
the following information : Shortly after
the storm set in, the workmen abandoned
the buildings—and ran into the workkhops
adjoining, all except one gang of riveters
who were working in the hull of the Man
ayunk. While thus engaged a whirlwind
struck the end of the building towards the
river, and in a minute it was a wreck. It
then struck the building in which the hull
of the Umpqua was being laid, and it was
totally destroyed. Only the keel and gar
board of the Umpqua was laid, and that
was so badly bent, and otherwise injured
that it will have to be taken to pieces.
straightened, and put up again. What
is more singular is the fact that in the
work sheds adjoining, no wind of con
sequence was felt, and boards lying
loose on the temporary sheds erected
over the horizontal punch and L
shears were not even displaced. The fol
lowing are the names of persons who were , 1
injured: Jas. Mooney who resides at No.
9 Scott street, was struck in the forehead
by something which inflicted a severe
wound. His right leg was also badly in
jured. He is a single man, about 30
year's of age, and the only support of his
mother. A man by the name of Wood
ward, who boards at the corner of Sixth
and Smithfield streets was slightly injured
by being struck on the left shoulder and
breast. The shock was so severe and the
pain so great that it made him very sick
for a while, although he was able to walk
home. Jas. E. Metlin was very slightly
injured, and will probably be able to go to
work again in a day or two. A man
whose name we could not ascertain, jamp•
ed from the cars that run along the top of
'the building, a distance of about twenty
feet from the ground, and was slightly
lamed. Some few others received slight
bruises, but nothing of any moment. The
only wonder is that more were not hurt.—
The damage clone the buildings and
Umpqua is about $5,000, if any thing it
is over rather than under that amount.—
The buildings were insured against fire
only.
Benefit of Miss Annie Eherlie.
On Moaday evening next, the 22d inst.,
this lady, who has labored so assiduously
to please the habitues and visiters of the
Pittsburgh Theatre, will present her claims
for a Benefit. Not relying entirely upon
her personal popularity, or the patronage
of her immediate friends, she offers a bill
replete with attractiveness. She has cho
sen the poetical Equestrian drama of Ma
zeppa, or the Wild Horse of Tartary, she
essaying the two male characters of,"Cas•
simer" and the Prince. She has a fine
trained horse that she will tide up the
fearful cataract, a feat that but few ladies
have the courage to attempt. A new sen•
cation drama of Virginia, or the Daughter
of the Union, will also be played, she sus
taining the part of the heroine, supported
by the aid of the entire company.
Pittsbur,Ther limed at Win
chester.
Among those who fell at the late battle
of Winchester was Lieutenant J. T. Ben-
Longh, of the 12th Virginia regiment.
ieutenant Bengough learned the printing
business in this city, and about the time
the war broke out was a compositor in the
office of the Gazette, in which paper he
had previously served a short term as re
porter. Same two years since he removed
to Fairmont, where he engaged in the pub
lication of a weekly paper known as the
National, but not content in his new posi
tion, he joined the 12th Virginia regiment,
and continued in active service up to the
period of his death. The de2eased was
about twenty six years of age, and leaves
ayoung wife to deplore his loss. His re
mains, it is said, will be brought on hero
for interment.

Massa& Enyroas I—A foul-mouthed
Englishman hurraed for Jeff. Davis on

further said that`he could whip any Amer
man on the street. An American who
thought differently pitched into the Bull(y),
when Alderman Donaldson came up and
parted the belligerents, and taking the
Englishman by the shoulder told him that
he had better go home. And - now, Messrs.
Editors, I don't know what your opinion in
regard to the matter would, be, but that
the fellow should have been arrested and
made to suffer severely, especially at such
a time as this, is the opinion of at least
one American citizen born in

Theatre.
• Last night the Theatre was crowded to
pay Ettie Henderson a merited compliment
on the occasion of her benefit. Among the
number present we noticed Capt. Jason
Hotchkiss, with fifty of his brave compan
ions in arms. A very large proportion of
the audience were ladies. To-night is the
last appearance of Ettie Henderson, and the
bill is worthy of attention. The beautiful
play of the Gipsey Girl will be repeated,
together with Kathleer Slavourneen, in
at! seven acts. We doubt not but the
the house will be crowded.
real National Circus.
This exhibition under the guidance of
Mrs. C. Warner, formerly Mrs. Dan. Rice,
is destined to cPeate a furore in this city

speak in most eulogistic terms of the en•
tertainments, pronouncing them unex
ceptionable and well worthy of the patron •
age of a moral and refined community.

for advertising, and they do it most ex
tensively. i fhursday the 25th of June,

The management has issued a cautionary
bill to the citizens of that place that we
recommend them to read. Opposition ex
hibitions have no license to enter the lists
against the National.
Shade Trees Rained.
During the severe hail storm of yester-
day a great number of shade trees were
either partially or completely ruined. In
some places they were stripped of their
foliage, in others perfectly denuded of
leaves and branches, and in others torn up
by the roots, and completeily.rnined. We
await with considerable anxiety the news
of the result of this storm in the conntr
An Omission.
In noticing those who have acted so
promptly in furnishing men to erect forti
kations for the protection of the city, we
neglected to mention Messrs. Anderson

They were among the first to furnish their
entire force, and well they have labored
in the glorious task assigned them.

gers—but to the serious alarm of the in
habitants of the island, who suddenly
found themselves subjected to a sharp and
decisive bombardment. The missiles fired
from the Rhode Island ploughed up the
earth in various directions, and came in
close proximity to, it not actually passing,
through dwellings, and driving people t o I
seek refuge behind rocks and other pro
jections. This was kept up for miles, anti.
at length the Morgaret and Jessie received
a shot through her boiler and another
through her bows, which forced her to
take the beach, then only fifty yards die
taut. We understand that one of the fire
men was injured, and if a fatal result ,
should ensue it will assuredly be a case of
aggravated murder.
Such are the plain facts of this ferocious
outrage. No amount of prevarication will
enable the officers of the Rhode Island to I
prove that the offense was committed be
yond the territorial limits of this colony.
There are too many disinterested witnesses
to the transaction, whose testimony will
outweigh any combination to pervert the
truth. When the same Vessel fired into
the steamer Sirius, a few weeks ago, there
were no spectators on shore to determine,'
the distance, and the assertion of the com•
mender that he was five miles off was re
ceived as conclusive. It is high time in
deed that the Home Government should
act energetically with respect to these
aggressions. Certainly the circumstances
connected with the attack on the Margaret
and Jessie and on Eleuthera are so flagrant
that they cannot well be overlooked. And
whilst no doubt reparation will be expect
ed and made, yet the intimation should be
conveyed also that a repetition of such
outrages will not be tolerated.
ie American War a Benefit to
Australia.
The eleventh annual ordinary general
meeting of the proprietors of the London
chartered Bank of Australia was held yes
terday at the London tavern, Mr. W. F.
DeSalis in the chair.
The chairman, in the course of his
speech, said:—Mr. Bramwell spo'(e
in
very satisfactory terms of the present po
sition of the bank and its future prospects.
As regarded the general position of the
Australian colonies, upon whose prosper
ity that business was based, it was very
gratifying to reflect that during the past
year their progress in material wealth and
prosperity had been in no way checked.
Slightly affected it might have been by the
struggk now going on in America, which
had prejudicially affected the whole of
Elrope, yet by it the Australian colonies
were in some measure benefitted. It had
induced emigratio n to Australia, and it
was also a fact that the productive powers
of these colonies had been stimulated, and
they produced now articles to which, but
for the war, they would not have turned
their attention for years. Formerly five
sixths of the tobacco consumed in Aus
tralia came from Virginia ; but now large
quantities of land were under tobacco cul
tivation : tobacco factories had also been
established, and produced so good an ar•
ticle that it was believed that after the
war the c:loniese would be ddent
of America so tar as this commodity was
concerned. Cotton was also now culti
vated to some extent in Australia, especi•
ally in Queensland, and this was due
wholly to the war.--London News.

Washington's Opinion in Regard
to Soldiers.
•
n writing to the President of Congress
Washington makes the following remarks,
wkich should be remembered by our peo
ple at this time. Something is due to
the man who puts his life in your hands—
hazards his health and forsakes the sweets
of home and his domestic enjoyments.
My opinion is that a good bounty should
be offered, added by the proffer of at least
100 to 150 acres of land and a suit of
clothes and a blanket to a non commis
sioned officer and soldier. However high
the man's pay may appear, it is barely
sufficient, in the present scarcity and dear
nese of all kinds of goods, to keep them
in clothes, much less to afford support to
their families."
A Land Joke.
Admiral Porter reports in his dispatch
that Grant could take Vicksburg by assault
with ten thousand men. The rebel army
in Vicksburg does not seem to estimate
the capacity of Porter's squadron so gen
erously. A correspondent relates that on
the 30th, when Pemberton sent a flag of
truce to propose an- armistice of two or
three hours for burying the dead, and
when it was objected that owing to the
length of our lines it would be impossible
to notify the whole force within that time,
especially the gunboats, the rebel officers
replied that we might leave out the gun
boats, as they never killed a man of theirs
and they rather preferred to have the g un .
boats go on burning ammunition.
