HEAVY STORMS.

THE storms in the western States, or the Mississippi valley, have been very severe this season. Many are of the opinion that the storms are more severe and more destructive of late than in former years. Whether they are more severe is a question. We had some experience in one in 1844 which was as severe as any of which we have had any knowledge since. But where some of the most destructive have passed of late years, there were no inhabitants at that time. It is not easy to compare the seasons a third of a century apart, in a country which is settled so rapidly.
