“Not at all." responds the polite officer; “for 
if worst comes to worst, those beasts and birds 
can bo eaten.” We wonder how many pets, 
birds in cages and cats and dogs in baskets, were

TERRIBLE HURRICANE, 
Great Tidal Wave at Matanzas—Ovcr Two Thou¬ 
sand Lives Lost—A Portion of Cardenas lslid 
Waste—Immense Loss of Property. 
A terrible hurricane prevailed on the island 
of Cuba tile 14th instant, which caused im¬ 
mense damage, especially at Matanzas and Car¬ 
denas. At Matanxas a tidal wave eausod an un¬ 
precedented rise in two rivers, which inundated 
the Intervening ground on which tho railroad 
depots were situated, and, when tho sea receded, 
everything was swept away by the returning 
tide. The depots, trains, passengers, and houses 
all disappeared. Two thousand persons are said 
to have been lost. The damage to property was 
enormous. But slight damage was done, how¬ 
ever, to the vessels and to property iti the city. 
Trees were prostrated, but no bouses. In tho 
country, the growing cane and other crops were 
damaged. 
The hurricane was disastrous in its effects at 
Cardenas, the lower part of tho city being laid 
waste. No particulars of the damage have been 
received, the heavy weather rendering commu¬ 
nication by sea between Havana and Cardenas 
Impossible. The interior of the island, buck of 
Cardonas and Matunzas, Is desolated. Tho cano, 
being somewhat backward ibis season, sustains 
Jess damage than other crops. Tho hurricane 
was tin- severest whloh has visited this island 
within a century. 
The French mail steamer Darien has been lost 
fifteen miles to the wit dward of Guantanamo. 
All hands were saved. 
Sever© Gale on the Lakes. 
A SKVEitE gale occurred on the 18tli inst., 
causing the wreck of several vessels and loss 
of life. On lake Erie, three vessols went 
ashore near Cleveland, O. ’The schooner G. 
W. Duncan, little damaged and may be saved; 
schooners Emma Blake mid Mary of Detroit per¬ 
fect wrecks; all on board lost.. The schooner 
Garibaldi went ashore at Port Oolborne, and 
schooner Ada Medorn ashore above Hong Point. 
On Lalco Ontario the report is that tho schoon¬ 
ers Advance and Flying Bond are ashore up the 
lake, the former twelve miles from Oswego; the 
sloop Cora is ashore down the lake. ,\t Point 
Frederick, opposite Kingston, Canada, the 
schooners Kate Robinson, Pride of America and 
Benedict are ashore. The schooner Kate iR 
ashore at Coburg. On Lake Michigan theslenm- 
or Orion was wrecked In Grand Haven harbor, 
no lives lost. The gale did morn Or I ess damage 
ju the Eastern States to shipping and buildings. 
Since writing the above, we learn by telegraph 
from Cleveland to tlieWtb inst. tha t the storm 
extended the full length of the lakes, and was 
very severe. Capt. Scssons of the propeller Cu- 
nisteo. reports that the propeller Tonawanda of 
tho ‘Western Transportation Company's line, 
went down about eight miles from Buffalo. She 
was loaded with grain from Chicago, and was 
one of the largest propellers of the line. It is 
not known how many persons were lost. The 
small boat in which were the two engineers, tho 
daughter of the captain, and three or four 
others, has not been hoard from.
