On the 6th of this month, at one rieluck in the day, in the most beautiful warm spring weather, a thunder -storm, accompanied by dreadful hail, limed over the circle of Bonn, anal in a few minutes destroytd all the fruits of the field in seven com munes. Yesterday the 7th, at three o'clock, another si milar tempest, with hail, coming from the west, passed through the middle of the circle over the finest part or it, and exactly over the city Of Bunn. The hail-stones were of the size of walnuts. some Si large as hen's eggs; frequently six or seven of 'hes frozen together in the air. In the space of five minutes all the windows looking towards the west in the whole city were totally demolished, and all the roofs without exception more or less damaged. The University, the Town Hall, the Prison, and most of the Churches, have sustained very great damage. There is not in the city the one hundredth part of the glass necessary to repair the damage done. The damage is estimated at 20,000 dollars. In the fieldsuild gardens the injury is greater; corn, grass, veget.bler, fruit trees, vines, &c. &c. are en tirely cut to pieces by the hail, and the whole dig. trict 'resents a picture of desolation. The injury done to the Botanic Gordan and the Castle of Pup peladorf is incalculable.

NEWPORT moved for leave to bring in a Bill for the regulating a subject most materially affecting the greater Iran of the population of Ire land. The Bill was to give certainty to the tenantry of Ireland as to the payments which they were to be called upon to make fur the lands in their occupation. He described the great and to creasing evil to the tenantry of parochial and grind jury assessments, which, from being 400,0001. at the time of the Union, had aug mented till in lost year they were more than sine million, the whole of which was paid by the tenantry, in addition to the rents contracted fur. He wished to do nothing to affect reiating contracts, but he thought it most desirable fur the peace id the country as well ad the inters:a of the populatiou. It was most unjust that the tenantry aliocld be sub jected to fire or six times the amount of charger which they expected to have to pay beyond their rents on taking their leases. Hr proposed to mike the landlords undertake the respoliaihility ul itie grand jury and parochial aiiseiLdineuts. At the same time he would guard the landlord against ally injury lie might be liable to receive from the tenant. He anticipated nu objection to the brioging in of the Bill, and concluded by moving fur leave bring in a Bill to uutlionse tenants in occupation to Irelaiid to tender iii part peymeut of their rents any receipts for grads, jury and parochial eisessugents, except in c.ses to be particulaile exempted.• Colonel FosTea thought the Bill objectionable. It would destroy the credit of the lintillords and tend to oppress the truism, and check the spirit of improvement now arising itz the land. Mr. R. MaitTix could not •grte to the actual usefulness of the Bill, and did not believe that it would give any security to the 'mutt, who must tie bound by his agreement whatever it wad. If the measure were good it ought not to be delayed it• operation, as the distress of she country required every possible remedy. He did not object, how ever, to the introduction of the Bill, ctrl thought that the House and the country were obliged'tu the Right Hun. Baronet for bringing theashject fut word, inquiry being so very necessary. Mr. J. DAWSON thought that it was high time to inquire into the system of assessments. mod gave as one instance of abuse a vote of 3,0001. in one year made to the clerk of the peace io the county of Tipperary—the salary and profits of the office being ample. He added his thank* to the Right Hon. Baronet for bringing the subject forward. Colonel FOSTER explained. . .
