Galveston, Aug. 16. The ichooner C. N
Moore, Captain McClanahan, arrived this

the above schooners and belioves they have
gone down. Captain McClsnahan says the
gale at Indianola blow with frightful veloc
ity, tho water rising sight foot above the or
dinary tido, flooding the town, and if, as in
1875. the wind had suddenly shifted to the
northwest, not a vestige of the town would
have been visible. The people aro utttrly
discouraged and w;U abandon the town. As
the captain rounded up ho saw a
large brig close in shore about
thirty miles east of the pass. A dispatch
subsequently to Collector Pease from Col
lector Pramz at Indianola says that it was
the British brig Duahaway in urgent need of
as'istanee. The rovenue cutter McLean has
been dispatched to her relief. The bark
Lord Cullonwood has returnod to her an

anchors, a boat and foretop gallant, and sus
tained other damages. The br:g Joseph
Clark, which arrived in tho outer roads,
also lost both anchors and sustained other
damages during tho gale.

Waco, Aug. 16. Lottie Campbell, col
ored, twenty-one years old, yesterday gave
birth to a monstrosity. It had the face of a
child, but a nose that had no bone or bridge
and only ono nostril, a sinrll round hole
locking outward instead of downward, as In
the natural orgau. The hair begun at tho
eyebrows and covered the entire head ; was
very long, straight and thick, resembling a
Newfoundland pup. The jaws were also
covered with long hair an 1 flosh, and hung
down'Jiko a dug's upper; lip. Tbe spinal
column wss covorod with very thick hair and
was pasted like on a fat dog's back. The
collar bono and the cheat were also covered
with hair of astonishing growth for an infant.
The child is the offspring of the girl's own
futher. It is a clear case of incest, as she
states. She is a brutal, unintelligent looking
being. The child, at the proper time,
weighed five pounds, and lived four hours.
The brutal lather is in another couftty and
has not been arrested.

Indianola, Aug. 14. A second 1875 cyclone
has visited our poor stricken town. Wednes
day evoning the wind was blowing strong
from the northeast, the water rising and
covering the flats in the rear portion of tbe
town.
At sunset the wind moderated, but about
2 o'clock on the morning of the 12th tbe
wind blew strong from the northeast, accom
panied with heavy rain. '
At daylight the wind increased to 45 miles
per hour, tho water risinir ranldlv. Throuch.
out Thursday the water in Matagorda bay
continued to rise rapidly. The wind con
tinued at 48 miles an hour.
r o -
At susot Thursday th water in and about
town continued rising, washing over Main
stroot to the depth of three feet. Carriages
and drays were in demand to carry mer-
cnanis nome iu inoir miliums.
At dark the agent of the MorgBnline
placed a train at tbe disposal of all who
ffished to loave. A number of people availed
themselves of the opportunity and loft at 8
p. m. for Lavaca station. '
Notwithstanding the warnine of 1875. a
number of families preferred to remain here
and take their cnancea or being washed
awav.
Throughout the night of the 12th the
wind was blowing a gale from the east, and
no doubt this place was on the edge of a
prevailing cycione.
Tbe water fell and rose at intorvals. but at
3 a. m. on the 13th. tho wator commenced
rising rapidly and the wind increased, by the
westnor omcor s record, to bdoui 70 milts an
hour. This must have been the last aeonv.
as the wind from that hour continued to die
out, and at daylight tho wator commenced
receding.
I am pleased to say no lives have been lost.
Considerable dimago was done to streets and
biidgeB.
The track leading from Morgan's wharf to
tnnir repot in town has Deen sntirely washel
off, the force of tho wind being so great as
to lift tbe track and ties bodily from the
roadbed, Carrying them a distance of half a
milo from where they wore placed.
From all accounts, the Morgan road Is the
heaviest sufferer, and it will take fully a week
to repair the damages.
All the bath-houses on the beach have been
washed away, and also a number of fences
and surrounding dwellings in town, but oth
erwise ho damage was done.
The schooner O. H. Moore, from Corpus
Christ), oamo here for harbor on Wednesday.
She rode out the gait in safety in Powder
Horn bayou.
The schooner Liberty arrived to-day with
lumber.
No vessels have, ss far at known, been
wrecked.
Mr. Monserrote, president of the Q. W. T.
and P. railway, is in town, and making ener
getic endeavors to repair damages to tbe rail
road, to that freights may be forwarded to
Victoria and Cuero without delay.
Although not as disastrous as the cyclone
of 1875, people here have bad quite a suffi
ciency of water, and all those who can "git
up and git" will take an early start for pas
tures now. Galveston News.
