1 -Cipi!br00potwbrViolent Storm.Our paper was nearly ready for press this(Wednesday) afternoon, when we were visited by one of the most violent storms we have seen for a long time. The day had beenclose and sultry with several strong signs ofrain; about three o’clock this afternoon a/ ^small but heavy cloud came up from the ci! West. It passed round our city without any so rain till it was over the Kentucky shore; then it seemed to grow and spread in a most remarkable manner; the wind shifted to the East, and the cloud commenced traveling back towards us. The wind rapidly increased in power till it became a violent gale.— Soon the rain descended in torrents, and was blown before the gale in violent sleet. The gutters were soon filled to overflowing, boughs were torn off trees and sent flying along the street. The Forest Queen was blown ashore just above the mouth of Hogan, but on the lulling of the wind she got ofi‘, having received little or no damage.onburiccowl Gz byljshen
