tinily felt 'by Yainy, some nf whotti have had es fea sibly to feel their obligation to the Divine Protec tion. The Gazette Office was struck in several places at different intervals. Many of the printing ma terials being formed of iron, the causes of attrac tion were no doubt the stronger, and the effects were truly awful. In the two lower rooms were eleven persons, six of whom were children, end all were affected in a greater or less degree, but atone seriously injured. By the first shock, a young man, en assistant, felt a violent concussion oa the head, which bowed him to the ground, but which he at the moment attributed to the fall of some weighty substances over head. He immedi ately left the place on which he stood, however, and in retreating into so adjoining, room was oppo sed in his passage by a crash occasioned by the burst ing in of a back door, the whole wood end brick work connected with which was rent to atoms, some of the shattered materials being driven inwards, and others outwards, to the distance of thirty feet from the door. The Publisher happening at the time to be revisiug a proof impressiou of this Paper, was thrown backwards with his seat, uncon scious to what cause to attribute the disaster, so instantaneously impaired was his recollection. On rising, he found himself enveloped in smoke as he then imagined. but more probably in the dust of lime and snorter Mattered from the brick-work. Those who were less affected than himself &elate that the electric matter hail the appearauce or s ball. which relionnded to and fro with a velocity peculiar to itself. On subsequent examination it appears to have entered the house at different parts, the inner brick-work of the chimnies being in many places !lectured. one of the rafters of the roof Hod a board in the upper floor splintered, and the brick work of many parts both within mud without the house visil.ly Impaired by the same awful mid ter• cause.—(Sydney Gazette.)

The bells rung a merry peal at intervals ; and yahoos flags, transparencies, and devices, were exhibited at night. The broad part of the Strand between the New Church and Exeter 'Change, and also Catharine-street, were blocked up with a crowd at an early hour, attracted by the grand traosparency en the front of Messrs. MORGAN and SANDI-RA% Mr. "'cocoas's on F.xeter 'Change, and others in that vicinity. Here the populace amused themselves with throwing squibs, which flew about id every direction vaunt a late hour, to the great annoyance or the pa-at tigers, particularly those in carriages. lu many instances tbry thought it pro dent to alight, the horses being flighted by tl.e tire and uproar, and several of the pryulace, most active in fomenting this disorder, were taken to Bow-street.—ln the iarly part of the evening there was not the least idea of an tlluminatiun ; but about tour o'clock a posse of boys and pickpockets made a surtie from tine neighboarhuoil of Catharine street, threatening every window that did not show • light, and put their threa's into execution, as they broke many panes of glass ; and the inhebit. ants of the Strand and Pickett-street acre obliged to illuminate ; with the exception of Somerset- House, which was ientoksted, although it re mained in total darkness.—At ten they win-lied to the rendezvous iu the Strnd, from which they made another start towards Charing-Cross, aid obliged the inhabitants to light.—The illumina tion, thus extorted, was confined to the line be tween Temple-bar and Charing-cross ; anti within this, which was the whole of the jurisdiction claimed, one or two candles in the windows of the first floor were deemed stifficitut.—W e heard only of one very serious accident occasioned by the squibs : a Lady's dress was set on fir., and was not extinguished until site ba I received considerable personal injury.
