TREMENDOUS THUNDERSTORM.--011 Tuesday night
the metropolis was visited by a terrific storm of thunder and
lightning. About twenty minutes before twelve o'clock a
frightful clap of thunder burst over the City, so alarming as
to arouse those who were asleep, and to cause the greatest
consternation among those awake or in the street. The shock
over St. Bartholomew's-close was so great that people rushed
out of their houses in dismay, each expecting that their
neighbour's house was down, or that the old church had
fallen. The shock
basw so tremendous that the very houses
vibrated as though ya shock of earthquake, and to an ex-
tent to alter the action of the clocks. There is very little
doubt that an aerolite fell in the vicinity of the church, for,
as Mrs. Smith, the wife of an artificial flower-stamp in Cloth-fair, adjoining the church, was closing the window,
she was struck back, and was rendered almost senseless by
the sulphuric vapour. The storm, as respects L"dn"after,
