This important metropolitan railway will connect the Dublin and Kingstown Railway at Sandymount with the terminus of the Great Southern and Western Railway near the Phoenix Park. J.. • It will join a system of tramways in connection with the docks on the south side of the River Liffey, and the har bour and shipping at the North Wall, and will connect itself with the-lino from Dublin -to - Drogheda-1414 Belfaat r and also with the Midland Great Western Railway. The proposed lino will be seven miles in length. It will form a direct communication between the Midland and Great Western and Dublin and Kingston Railway ; and it will in like manner directly connect the Great Southern and Western with the Dublin and Droheda, Railway, and will become the main route for all the traffic between the Northern and Southern parts of Ireland. It will thus not only be a suburban omnibus line for the city of Dublin, but it will occupy the remarkable and unrivalled position that the whole of the interchange traffic between the great trunk lines converging in Dublin (viz., the Dubliii and Drogheda and Northern lines, the Midland Great Western, and Dublin and Meath Railways, and the Great Southern and Western Railway), together with the through traffic on these lines to and from England, and their traffic in goods and minerals with docks and harbour, will, of necessity, pass over the whole or some part of it. By the formation of this line the mail service between England and Ireland will be considerably accelerated, and passengers willl be enabled to travel to and from the port of Kingston and any part of the Irish railway system with out changing carriages. It is proposed to have a station at the New Cattle-market in Dublin, and thereby to develope the trade in connection with that extensive branch of traffic. It is an important feature of the proposed line that the advantages of deep water at all states of the tide at Holy head and Kingston will be rendered available for the traffic in cattle, goods, and minerals. From its position in relation to these ports and to the port of Dublin, this line will effect a considerable saving in the cost of transshipment and carriage of coal sent into the interior of the country, and a large development of coal traffic may confidently be anticipated as the result of these increased facilities. The London and North-Western Railway Company cordially approve of the undertaking, and will afford their fullest co-operation in developing the traffic between their system and the Irish railways over the proposed line. The act for this line was obtained in the last session of Parliament, after a most searching and careful inquiry of 22 days, before a Select Committee of the House of Com mons, which unanimously adopted it as the best of five competing schenies that had been under its consideration, for the purpose of supplying Dublin with a metropolitan railway communication effecting a connexion between the railway systems having their termini in that city. It is well known that the Metropolitan and Suburban Railways of London have produced results exceeding the most sanguine anticipations of their original promoters, although the cost of construction, including the purchase of properties, has been greatly in excess of any other railways in the kingdom. In the present instance the position of the Dublin and Kingstown Railway, of which the proposed line is practi cally an extension, furnishes the very best data for esti mating its future traffic. The Dublin and Kingstown line has cost about £60,000 per mile. Its traffic is confined to passengers only, from which it derives an income yielding an annual dividend of about 10 per cent., and the £lOO stock is selling at about £2OO at the present time. It is estimated that the Dublin Trunk Connecting Rail way will cost about £37,000 per mile, and in addition to its suburban omnibus traffic, and the through passenger traffic, it will be the receiver of an extensive traffic in cattle, goods, and minerals. There is, therefore, just ground for expecting that the Dublin Trunk Connecting Railway will be at least quite as successful as the Dublin and Kingstown line, or, in other words, that it will become one of the very best and most remunerative railway properties in the kingdom. The works have been undertaken by the eminent firm of Messrs. J. and C. Rigby, the contractors for the harbour and other works at Holyhead. On registration of the Scrip, of which due notice will be given, the Certificates for £5O will be divided into five Shares of £lO each. In the event of no allotment being made, the deposits will be returned in full. Should a less number of Shares be allotted than are applied for, the deposits will be made available towards the payment on allotment, and the balance (if any) returned to the applicant.

Racing, from a natural association of ideas, has grown to be regarded as so peculiarly an English sport, that it was with little short of astonishment at the temerity of the undertaking that men first heard of the in tention of foreigners seriously to compete with us for honours. Frenchmen, however, have been found not only to assert their right to pre-eminence on their own racecourses, but with characteristic daring to carry the contest into our own borders, and, upon what has been hitherto the distinctively Eng lish racecourse of Epsom, to put forward their claims to the blue riband of the Turf. The with drawal, from one cause or other, of horses as to whose performance favourable anticipations had been formed gave increased prominence to the new comers, of whom the most formidable, Gladiateur, proved so successful at Newmarket that he sprang at once into the position of favourite for the Derby. The knowledge that the international contest thus impending was to be fairly tried out yesterday naturally added to the attraction which Epsom, like some potent magnet, always exercises upon Derby-day. Other racecourses have their peculiar glories—Royalty may glitter at Ascot, fashion may congregate at Goodwood, but Epsom is of and for the people ; and the people onthis occasion attended in greater force than ever. It would be a curious study to trace the successive stages by which the race has ingratiated itself with popular feeling in so marked a manner. As far back as the days of the Restoration there were races on Banstead Downs, for we find accurate Mr. Pepys writing in July, 1663, that " having intended this day to go to Ban ' stead Downs to see a famous race, I sent Will to get himself ready to go with me ; but I hear it is put off because the Lords do sit in Parliament to day." Whatever other difficulties Mr. Pepys might have to encounter, were h now alive, the incon siderate energy of Parliament would certainly not I be among them. It is always difficult to know whether more people do or do not travel to Epsom annually by road. As regards the railways no doubt whatever can exist. Every season the trains are longer and more frequent than before, the ordinary traffic becomes still fur ther disorganised, and the respective staffs of either line of railway—able, energetic, but overworked— have to cope as best they can with this glut of traffic. This year, what was intended as an additional fa cility was afforded in the shape of a branch line from the London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway, extending in the direction of Tattenham Corner. The difficulties, however, of working it appeared to be such that in the journey either way the " fast" trains occupied about an hour and a half. It is fair, however, to add that, both upon this line and on the South-Western, every precaution against accident appeared to be taken, fog-signals as well as flags being employed at critical points. The road, as al ready stated, is deceptive. Seen in transit, the vehicles appear to be less nummous than on former occasions, but when massed together at their desti nation they outnumber any previous aggregate. The carriages, carts, vans, or omnibuses forming the triple barrier round the course, or the miscellaneous gathering on the bill which it encircles, are as nothing numerically compared with those which, having no chance of nearing the lines of white rails, are placed, as the attendants consolingly urge, " in a capital position for getting away again." The bewildering maze of these outer vehicles to any one happening to find himself among them is sufficiently sugges tive of the interest taken in the Derby. But a visitor, if he wishes really to obtain an insight into the strength of the hold acquired by this annual gathering on the masses who attend it, will do well to discharge his mind, as far as nay be, of the general effect, and individualise a few of the scenes before him. His eye will be attracted in the first instance to the stylish turn-out, " one of four which left our club this morning ;" or, possibly, to the carriage and pair, comfortable, if not so showy, which halted for a moment at Fortnum and Mason's on its way down to pick up the appropriate ham pers ; and doubtless the glance will also include the omnibus from Bishopsgate-street, with its list of fares deposed for the day, and rendered as far as circum stances permit the private four-in-hand of those gentlemen from the city with light overcoats and veils to match. For the most part, however, these are mere birds of passage ; they come to Epsom as they would to a regatta or a Volunteer review, and are not the votaries proper of the Derby. The visitor, therefore, must turn his gaze towards humble equipages, and certainly his first exclama tion will be—•" What thoughtless extravagance ! What penury, what grinding must be endured here after to cover the sums wasted in this one day's riotous excess ! Equipages, 'liquors, music—how can the wages of artisans, however liberal, suffice to pay for all these things ?" Sad thought, if true— excellent text for an appropriate sermon—but effec tually disposed of by this simple fact, that in hardly one case is there a shilling due on account of all these pleasure vans. Frequenters of the Derby, in this class, know well that singly they are not of mark sufficient to become responsible, or e'en to obtain credit for the necessary outlay, and accord ingly they have recourse to a system of organisa tion, which is not without its lesson in these days of " lateral" and " vertical" proposals of reform. Parties for the Derby are formed among the opera tive class as much as two or three months before the race; every expense, including even turnpikes, is calculated, and the proportion which each should bear adjusted to a nicety ; so that by a steady pay ment to the common fund of a couple of shillings weekly, or such other sums proportioned to their Means as may be determined upon, the committee are in a position to make all necessary preparations before the Derby-day, and nothing remains for the party but to put on their best clothes and enjoy themselves. If afterwards individual members of the company choose to put their hands deeper into their pockets, either by betting or by expenditure in one or other of the booths, that is entirely their own affair, and the party at large do not hold them selves responsible for it. But obviously, when men for months together thus unite for a common object, entailing considerable self-denial, the institution in connection with which these qualities are exhibited deserves the name of one of the permanent institu tions of the country. But while justice is thus done to the spirit in which the masses take their plea sure, it must by no means be supposed that the gathering at Epsom was merely plebeian. There was as much rank and fashion drawn together yesterday as on any former occasion— probably more, for the ordinary occupants of the Grand Stand and other " coignes of vantage" were largely reinforced by the more distinguished of the French residents in London, ardently desiring the success of the Count de Lagrange. In fact, whether in the train, in the vicinity of private carriages, on the roof of the Grand Stand, or in the refreshment rooms, the emphatic roll of the letter " r-r-r" be trayed the close proximity of our great allies, whose attachment to le sport has sometimes furnished occasion for mirth, but who must henceforward be recognised not only as worthy, but as successful rivals. From about 1 o'clock the roll of carriages to the back of the Grand Stand was incessant, and from among their occupants a full quorum of members of either branch of the Legislature might have been formed without difficulty. his Royal Highness the Prince of Walesreached the course shortly after half past 1 o'clock, having driven from town in an open carriage with four horses and two postillions,not to be distinguished by their livery from those attached to any ordinary equipage. his Royal Highness was accompanied by the Duke de Brabant, an officer of the Duke's household, and Lord Alfred Paget ; and immediately following the royal party was a private carriage driven by his Royal Highness the Com mander-in-Chief. The Prince of Wales left town about half-past 11, and made such good progress on the road that he reached the Grand Stand before some of the officers of his household who were to have preceded him by railway. And now by 2 o'clock, though vehicles are still arriving, and the approach of others can be pre dicted from the white clouds sent up from thirsty roads in the distance, the gigantic assembly is settling down within its normal limits. The day, though pleasantly cool, is fine, and the predictions of all the weatherwise, even of the oldest whips upon the road, that rain would fall, and that in abundance, have been utterly falsified. The turf is unmistakably dry, not to say hard, and whenever a horse's foot touches it sharply a little puff of chalky dust arises. From this, again, the learned in such matters deduce a theory, which does not bear the test of experience --that Gladiateur's sinews can never stand the descent from Tattenham-corner. The bookmakers and betting men are now earnestly at work. Several are not satisfied with putting forth legibly printed statements of the terms on which they are willing to do business, but intro duce fantastically into their costume the colours of those riders upon whom they pin their expectations. To one of the fraternity a brilliant method of ren dering himself conspicuous had occurred, which was to have hii hat dyed in moieties. The course was with difficulty cleared for the first race, which, as usual, attracted comparatively little attention, al though the number of entries was the same as for the great race of the day. As soon as it was deter mined a curious sight might be seen in the interior of the Grand Stand. Of the 3,000 spectators on the roof, numbers were anxious to descend to dinner —the price of which meal, it may be stated in pass ing, rose to 6s. on this occasion—while far greater numbers of those on the ground or lower tiers were doubly anxious to occupy the vacated places above. Continuous streams, therefore, ascending and de scending, tested in the most efficient manner the permanence of the staircases, and ground each other nearly to powder on the steep ladders approaching the summit. Once released from the perils and dis comfort of the middle passage, and out in the fresh air again, the view gained from the top of this struc ture is magnificent. The eye ranges over a wide amphitheatre, wooded towards the verge on nearly every side, in the centre undulating, and sustaining on the crest of one of its ridges the area within which a contest lasting less than three minutes will lead to the transfer of £6,875 in stakes, and probably not less than a million in bets of greater or less amount. The course itself is defined and encircled by a combined mass of stands, vehicles, and members of the human family, so closely packed as to suggest the be lief that it can never be safely disentangled. How the area between the rails can be cleared is a mystery, for the public are moving over it just as freely and calmly, though the bell has been ringing twenty minutes already, as if the race were to be run this day week. Twenty policemen abreast attempt to clear the people away, but they simply outflank the blue line, allow it to pass, and fall to conversing quietly in its rear. The experi ment is repeated again and again with no better re sults. At last, Superintendent Walker, the active head of the A. division arrives, mounted. It does not appear clearly what one horseman can effect in such a concourse. But, penetrating judiciously here and there, now persuading and now directing, he does in time produce very visible results ; and, besides this, " superintendent" is a noun of multi tude, meaning many. One thousand men and up wards are at his immediate beck and call, in the unlikely event of their services being required in any other capacity than keeping a good line and frustrating the operations of pickpockets. Little by little the crowd is pushed back under the railings, driven along the line to favourable outlets, got rid of somehow ; all but one or two obstinate youths, upon whom remonstrance being thrown away they are ultimately taken up neck and heels and passed into outer space over the heads of the assembly. Perhaps it may be thought the course is now in readiness for the great race. Far, very far, from it. It is indispensable to remove the orange peel and greasy wrapping papers which the public have carefully accumulated within the very limits where men and horses will soon be sweeping past with the violence of a tornado. When these are removed the great dog difficulty has to be grappled with ; and that this is something more than the joke sometimes imagined the records of this very course at Epsom establish, two valuable horses and their jockeys having been nearly killed on one occasion by stumb, ling at full gallop over such an intruder. Yesterday the dogs were more than usually troublesome, and it was with a joy akin to that which of old dictated the cry of " Habet" that the spectators saw justice done upon one particularly obstructive cur. Mean while, the horses about to take part in the race had been mustered in the paddock, where, as usual, persons were admitted to view them upon the pay ment of a special fee. The principal objects of curiosity were naturally Gladiateur and Breadal bane, though many still clung to the belief that there were points about Wild Charley which would render him a formidable rival. Christmas Carol improved as much as Longdown was depreciated upon close acquaintance. It was known by this time that Mr. Jackson's horse Jupiter would not be a competitor; all the others, however, were starters, and a new horse, Kate Hampton, was added to the list, thereby completing the orijnalmumber of 30. Leaving the paddock, the horses came in front of the Grand Stand for their preliminary canter. Among the first to show themselves were Gladiateur and Le Mandarin, both of whom were warmly wel comed. A considerable interval elapsed before Breadalbane made his appearance, but when he came forward, accompanied by Broomielaw, his backers likewise seemed encouraged by his appearance. There were some, of course, among the crowd who having backed particular horses concentrated their atten tion on them ; but the great mass of the spectators had eyes or ears for nothing except the two horses accepted as representatives of the two nations. The canter up hill showed a slight but still a decided ad vantage of temper on the side of the French horse. Grimshaw, his jockey, was conversing with some body, when Le Mandarin started off in advance ; Gladiateur followed instinctively, and with good will. Breadalbane, on the contrary, when his time came, threw back his ears, and was a second or two in settling into his stride. The canter down hill was still more decidedly in favour of the French horse. His action throughout was so smooth and regular and sweeping that most persons made up their minds there and then as to the probable result of the race. The starting was attended with a con siderable amount of vexation, and with one unfor tunate accident. Sharpe, the rider of Mr. 'White's Joker, being thrown from his seat and so much in jured that, although he was able to rise from the ground, he did not attempt to take part in the race, and the horse .was accordingly led back to the paddock. At last, just as the clock was about to strike four, the horses got away together, and till the ascent, or first half-mile, had been traversed, there was not a symptom of lagging on the part of any. Round the corner they swept at a tremendous pace, and then one dropped back a little, and a knot of four or five stood out a length in advance. There were fewer dark colours than usual in the group, and consequently it was not easy to distinguish the position of the favourites ; but as there were two or three patches of red well to the front, and as Glad diateur's jockey wore red sleeves and cap, while Breadalbane's colours were " all rose," the excite ment grew absolutely feverish. In the straight run home none of the familiar colours occupied the ex pected position ; and, until touching the Grand Stand, Christmas Carol and Eltham, running their very best, appeared to have matters their own way. The width of the Grand Stand, however, determined the race. With a sudden rush Gladiateur disen tangled himself from the knot of horses that con cealed him from view, passed first one, then another, and finally drew abreast of the leader himself. Grimshaw seemed to expect that he would have to rush for it against Christmas Carol, and in that ex, pectation raised his whip and gave one stroke to the favourite, who responded with a stride that, despite previous performances, seemed almost super natural. Christmas Carol, on the contrary, was capable of maintaining his pace, but no more, and Gladiateur accordingly shot in an easy winner by a couple of lengths. Eltham was third ; Longdown an indifferent fourth. The sensation produced when it was known that the French horse had actually won was something indescribable. The barriers burst like so many cobwebs, and fully half the spectators flocked on to the race course, so that from the paddock well nigh to Tattenham-corne, there was one dense, swarming, excited mass of humanity. The utmost efforts of the police with difficulty sufficed to clear and keep the space requisite for unsaddling, and, although there appeared to be no visible need for the pre caution, Gladiateur was escorted into this area by a force of mounted constabulary. His jockey was repeatedly and very cordially cheered, and the friends of Count de Lagrange applauded again and again. . . - The time occupied in running the race was taken by Benson's Marking chronograph, the instrument adopted on all these occasions ac an infallible record, and was found to be 2 minutes 45 seconds tlxactly. Next to accuracy in point of time, a photograph on a largo scale is now con sidered indispensable.

Here a long delay took place, as usual, through the over anxiety of several of the riders to secure places, and the disinclination evinced by Broomielaw, Rifle, and Christmas Carol to join their horses, and it was just on the stroke of 4 before- Mr. M'George was enabled to effect an equitable start, after nine failures. When fairly on the wing, Wild Charley assumed the lead, but before they had proceeded a dozen strides he was pulled back, alld the running was taken np by Tilt on the extreme right, closelrfonowed by El+havn, Oppressor, Roderick Random, Christmas Carol, and Broomielaw in a body, and a couple or three lengths in their rear . were observed Kate Hampton, Todleben,„ Archimedes, Longdown, Le Mandarin, Brahma, and Zephyr, who headed the next division, in the centre of which were the favourite, Breadalbane, Audaz, Wild Charley, and Kangaroo, the, rear being brought up by Fare well, First Born, and Richmond. They proceeded in these positions at a great pace through the furze to the mile post, where Tilt gradually gave way, and as they com menced the descent of the hill Eltham, next the rails, was clearly seen in advance, having Christmas Carol in attendance, the pair being followed by Broomielaw, Tod leben, Longdown, Kate Hampton, and Audax, to the three quarter mile post, when Gladiateur came through his horses, followed by Wild Charley and Archimedes, who came up on the right, but in a few strides furthei struck into the heels of Mr. Merry's colt, which sent him staggering against Archimedes and Audax, who cannoned against the favourite, and completely knocked him out of his stride, and but for the timely attention paid by Edwards to Challonor's caution, by pulling off and lotting Grimshaw through, his chance would have been entirely destroyed, and in consequence Grimshaw had to ease him, and bide his time until he was fairly landed in the straight. Round ing the bend Broomielaw took a slight lead of Eltham and Christmas Carol on the lower ground, having Todleben wide on the right, and close in his rear came Longdown, Archimedes, Brahma, Gladiateur, Oppressor, Ariel, and Olmar to the road, where the favourite crept up, and on reaching the distance Broomielaw, having run himself out, gave way, and Christmas Carol thou assumed the lead, having Eltham on his right, the pair running locked to gether to half way up, when Grimshaw, having steadied his horse, came with a rush, and, heading the two in the next few strides, won in a canter by two lengths, Christ mas Carol defeated Eltham by a length for second, Long down was fourth, beaten a couple of lengths from the let ter. Broomielaw was fifth, Todleben sixth. Archimedes seventh, Breadalbane, who ran unkindly throughout, finished next, a long way off. Then came Brahma, Op pressor, Olmar, Ariel, Kate Hampton, and Audax in a body, the rear division comprising King Charming, Kangaroo, Wild Charley, Richmond, and Bedminster, the last of whom broke down badly half a mile from home. The Manor Plate of 50 sovs, for 3-yr-olds and upwards. Weight for age, with certain allowances. The winner to be sold for 200 sovs. One mile. Mr. H. Smith's Guardsman, 4 yrs, Bst 101b...(Custance) 1 Mr. R. Ten Broeck's Troublesome, 6 yrs, 9st (Fordham) 2 Capt. Cooper's Soapstone, 5 yrs, 9st 21b (J. Adams) 3 Irish Mail also ran. Betting-7 to 4on Troublesome, and 4to 1 each agst Soapstone and Guardsman. Guardsman jumped off with the lead, followed by Trou blesome and Soapstone, and continued in this order with no variation to the distance, when Troublesome made an effort, but failed to reach the leader, who won easily by two lengths ; a length between second and third. The Epsom Town Plate of 50 sovs (handicap), for all ages winners extra. One mile. Mr. W. Morris's The Warrior, 4 yrs, Bst 121b(Fordham) 1 Lord!Westmoreland's Bavarde, 3 yrs, 6st ...(lleartfield) '2 Mr. T. Goldby's Under tho Cloud, 4 yrs, - i5t...(11.

Betting-7 to 4 agst the 'Warrior, sto 2 agst Vigil, 4to 1 agst Bavarde. Real Jam made play, followed by Vigil, Bavarde, Nim rod, and the Warrior, and ran in this way to the distance, where the leader dropped back, and Warrior drew to the front, opposite the Stand he was level with his horses, and with only Bavarde and Under the Cloud near him, went in an easy winner by a. length and a half ; Under the Cloud finishing two lengths behind Bavarde. The Burgh Stakes of 5 sovs each, with 30 sovs added, for 2-yr-olds and upwards. Weight for age, with selling allowances. Half-a-mile. Mr. W. Morris's Flageolet, 3 yrs (£4O), 7st 81b (S.

Betting-7 to 4 agst Flageolet, 9to 2 apt Jack Jukes, 6 to 1 agst His Royal Highness. Flageolet took the lead, followed by His Royal High ness, who soon gave way to the Lady Avon filly, and a fine race between the first two ensued, the favourite winning by a head. His Royal Highness finished two lengths behind the second. Nothing else near the three placed. Delimo was struck out of the Oaks at 8.30 r.m. on May 28. THE GLORIOUS FIRST OF JUNE, 1794.—This day being the 71st anniversary of the defeat of the French fleet by Lord Howe, it may be interesting to our readers to know that there are still nine gallant veteran officers who survive to celebrate that great achievement. The following are the names of the survivors, together with their rank then and now, and the ship in which they served :—Admiral of the Fleet Sir William Parker, Bart., G,C.B , first and principal naval aide-de-camp to the Queen, was midshipman of the Orion, 74 ; Admiral Wm. Henry Brown Tremlett, the senior officer on the reserved list, was midshipman of the Royal Sovereign, 100 ; Ad miral Edward Ratsoy, on the reserved list, was mate of the Defence, 74 ; Admiral Henry Thomas Davies, on the re tired list was midshipman of the Glory, 98 ; Rear-Admiral William Mit, on theretired list, was midshipman of the Russell, 74 ; Captain John Sykes, on the retired list, was midshipman of the Charon, 20 ; Capt. Justinian Barre'll, on the retired list, was a boy in the Brunswick, 74 ; Captain George Hillier, on the retired list, and a recipient of the commanders' out-pension of Greenwich Hospital, was mid shipman of the Alfred, 75; and Commander George Neate Tremlett, on the retired list, was master's mato of the Queen, 98. A WOMAN KILLED BY Lronnurra.—When the storm was at its height in Glasgow on Wednesday afternoon a widow woman named Mary Scanlan, or Broad lie, residing in 22, Gallowgate, was killed on the spot, in the Green, by the electric fluid. It appears that Mrs. Broadlie had been taking tea with a neighbour named Mrs. Craigie, between 3 and 4 o'clock, and shortly before the latter hour the women left the house for the purpose of searching for two children belonging to Mrs. Broadlie. The children had gone out for a stroll, and it having been ascertained that they had been seen going in the direction of the Green, the women proceeded thither. While they were walking between Monteith-row and the Humane Society's-house Mrs. Craigie was knocked to the ground from the effects of a stroke of lightning, but, excepting a. momentary stun, she was little or nothing the worse. Im mediately thereafter, her companion, Mrs. Broadlie, was also struck by the electric fluid, whereby she was instanta neously deprived of life. Her clothes were literally torn into shreds, and singed in some places ; but, with the ex ception of a slight oozing of blood from her mouth and one of her ears, there were no injuries apparent. The body of the unfortunate woman was conveyed to the Central Police-office, where it had not lain above five minutes when the children of the deceased wore brought into the office. They had been found by the police in the neigh bourhood of Stockwell-street, and were conveyed to the office for protection, where their mother, whom they left in the fulness of health about an hour before, lay a corpse. A serious accident also took place during the storm in the house of John Tweedlie, GO, High-street. It appears that while John Tweedlie, three years of age, Elizabeth Tweed lie, between six and seven, and a woman named Sarah Shepherd or Ifislop, and her daughter, were standing in the kitchen near the fire, the lightning struck the chimney can, darted down the vont, and the above-named persons were very severely scorched in various parts of their bodies. After being attended by Dr. M'Gill, the sufferers were con veyed to the Infirmary. Shortly after 4 o'clock, a chimney stalk, situated at 80, King-street, City, was struck by the lightning, and a portion of the masonwork fell to the ground with a fearful crash. Fortunately no person was injured.—Glasgow Herald.
