HE EQUINoCTIAL AT LAsT.-The equlnoctlal
storm has come at last. 1t began to rain, with
stormy gale from the northeast, on Saturday night
at sun down, and continued with great severity
til yesterday at II o'clock. At that hour it shifted
suddenly from N. E. TO N. W., and the gale and
rain increased.


This blow has been as violent a gale as we have ex-
perienced years, and damage has beendone
in various ways. The barque Eugenia, Capt. Bis
coe, bound to Vera Cruz, while lying at anchor in
the North River, yesterday, sprung leak. Assis-
tance was sent from the U. S. ship North Carolina,
and steamship Princeton, who kept her free Of
water until the steamboat Hercules came and towed
her into the Fry Dock. The franklin Bath, kept by
Mr.. 1homas was sunk and very much damaged
thelN.W. end was entirely torn to pieces; II IS in.
sured for $500. Several large trees, on the Bat
terry, torn up by their roots, and also on the
Bowling Green some few trees were blown down.
This has been one OF the severest gales that has
been experienced in New York for several years
We also expect 10 hear of great many disasters
among our shipping on the coast. A great deal Of
damage has been done TO chimneys and awnings.
There was report that some Of the Pilot boats
were ashore-but nothing certain.
