. j TnMdny night's Storm . 1
Richmond, Va. This was the severest
storm Richmond has ever experienced iu
the memory of (the oldest iuhabitHnt.
The Capitol square looked as if two great
armies bad engaged in H'tle, there with
heavy artillery. , Trees were torn to pjeces
in all parts of tho grounds In Monroe
park the conditions were even worse. . ,
The some story of the storm comes from
all over the State east ol the Bine Ridge.
Barns ncd small but houses, were swept
away, trees uprooted, residences ufnoofed,
wires prostrate ), and general wreckage
prevails.. ;T-:-,.V ;i;. ''- VTl: '''";
Savmsxah, Ga.- The centre, of the
storm passed east of Savannah and struck
inland, north of here. The damage on the
South Carnliuo' coast is believed to be
heavy, but so mr little loss of hie is re.
ported. The rice planbitions on the Caro
lina side of the Savannah river and along
the rivi r west of here su tiered heavily.
The lice in the Gelds was little injured,
being covered with water, but the store
bousts and mills are wrecked, and the rice
stored is a total loss Tne plantations on
the Ogeachee and Alabama rivets, on the
Georgia side wereficavlly damaged.
I- Tke damage in the thy will probably
exceed $1,000,000. Hard'y a building es
caped, and thou ands of hou-ea are roof-
i-fs. The . work d clearing a.vay liic
wreckage from the streets went on all
ni'jht and most of the tt n oi s arc passable
The parks are pitiable sights, fall trees,
torn up by ilieir roots, or broken in two,
lie in swaths across shrubbery and flowers
The ruin is complete. The famous B ma
venture Cemetery, four miles from Savan.
nah, on the Thunderbolt road, is a scene
of ruin. There, and in pictuneque Laurel
Grove Cemetery, monuinents and grave
st nes are overturned, and in some In
stances th j vaults are broken in. -At the
suburban villages and resorts summer
residences were blown away and yachts
and p'easure steamers were driven ashore,
in same instances, bigti and dry on the
lowblufh. : :
Norfolk, Va The damage to sh(i
ping along the Atlantic const is raid to be
very great. In Pennsylvania the storm
also did great damage, several deaths re
sulting. '
Norfolk's escape is most remarkable.
Norfolk luckily escaped the fury of the
hurricane predicted by the Weather Bu
rean Tuesday night As it was, however,
the gentle forty mile an hour breeze that
soughed through the tree tops and tos-ed
blanches and other loose things, like (el
egraph wires and cross arms, about tne
streets, was about ss lively an experience
as the aveage citizen cans to encounter.
As sitn by. The Virginian's telegraphic
dispatches, however our sittvr ciihs of
Petersburg and Rteuoioii-: were not so
fortunate. Tlte hippin; has not sufldred
greatly so fir as beuid, hut the government
wires down the coast beinj pmstiated
from Cape ffntterm to Norfolk, news of
wrecks will be very slow in convng in.

Nothing but the lack of the tidal wave
or the prevalence of inordinately ' high
tides earned by the meeting or piling up
