We have accounts from different parts of the country, commu nicating numerous distressing consequences of the late extraordi nary heat of the weather. A man, at Corby, Lincolnshire, on Wednesday se'nnight, while hoeing thistles, was so overcome by the heat that he died in the field.—A woman ettlpioyed in mak ing hay in a field adjoining the town of llontingdon, complained of being ill from the heat, and died before she could get home. — A woman at Bellesdon, in Leicestershire, on Wednesday, died of the c vcessive heat.—Two haymakers, who had been working in a field near Hampstead, were found dead ; and three persons, belonging to the same place, are sutfrring so severely from the same cause, as to render tacir recovery doubtful.—The horses in Mr. Pattersen's carriage, going to Cromer, stopped on the road, unable to proceed, and on unharnessing them, one fell lifeless.-1 no horses in the mail coach, between Grautham and Newark, died while in harness.—Ota, of the horses in the Yar mouth coach died on stopping at Norwich.—Two horses belong ing to Mr. Fawcett, of the George Inn, Stamford; and one the property of Mr. Roodhouse, of the same plate, died on the road; as did a post-horse belonging to Mr. Bone, of Dereham, in Noreol k. • A waterspout lately broke .near Kirkconnel, N. B. It thus described in a letter from SKuquhar :—" In the afternoon, a large black cloud appeared to test on the hill of Cor.encon, which soon shifted and stood over the coal-pits, about two miles from that place, when a whirlwind, apparently rising directly below it, appeared to shake the cloud. At this instant a loud and confused noise was heard, and the water immediately descended with great velocity, in an awful and tremendous man ner, tearing up the ground and stones of an immense size, wherever it touched. Those who witnessed this scene describe the water descending from a considerable height, in broketi columns rolling over one another, which, when it approached near the earth, terminated in a small point, in an inverted conical shape. The day was uncommonly warm and sultry, scarcely a breath of wind could be felt." t urn,. S roast.—On Friday se'nnight, about nine in the eve Gins;, there was a storm, near Glastonbury, in Somersetshire, in its appearance and consequences exceeding any thing that has, for a long series of years, been known to this country. The thunder and lightning were tremendous ; and the shower of hail, Well formed a part of this tremendo" phenomenon, was of a nature which wnuld scarcely justify belief, if we had nut a per fect confidence in the Gentleman who communicated the account. The storm appeared to have spent its chief fury between Piper's Inn, on the road (ruin Welts to Brikewater, and the village of Ashgale. Here the corn was laid flat; the roads were inun dated; the apple-trees, which abound in that country, sere stripped not only of their fruit, but of their very leaves; and almost every pane of glass in the latter village was broken. rite larger hail-stones, which were of an irregular form, measured tiz inches in circumference ; and the lesser ones, or rather halls of ice, %%ere about half that size. The inhabitants were so much aliumed at this extraordinary visitation, that they trem bled for their lives; and few of them,_ to use their own expres sion, expe c t e d to b e h o ld t h e room of day.
