PREMISES IN KINGSLAND STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.—
Throughout yesterday crowds of persons continued to
assemble before the houses, 7 and 8, Watts'-buildings,
Kingsland-road, attracted by a report that some portion
of the premises had been struck by the electi:c fluid in
the storm of the previous night. The houses are of
four storeys, and tenanted ' • No. 7 by Mr. Booth,
stonemason, No. 8 by Mr. Dulap, but the effects of the
lightning are not perceptible in the buildings, the indi-
cation of the passage of the fluid being only observable
at a particular spot in the front gardens. Close to the iron
gateways of both the above houses there appears a deep
hole, which has undermined the railings, and caused the
pathway of No. 8 to give way to the extent of some
feet. The damage has been repaired by a temporary
bridge. It is supposed that the lightning struck the
iron railings, and, in making its way into the earth,
ploughed up the soft mould in which the railings were
embedded, thus causing the present extraordinary
excavation.

A MAN FOUND DEAD ON HAMPSTEAD-HEATH.—On
Thursday, about half-past 1 o'clock in the day, the body
of a man was discovered on the west side of Hampstead-
heath, near to Child's-hill, quite dead. The body was
found by Mr. Charles Warn, of Golden-yard, Hamp-
stead, and had then been dead apparently six or eight
hours. It was immediately convoyed on a stretcher to
the workhouse. On being searched, nothing could be
found to identify in the least the name or occupation of
the deceased. He appeared to have been a man between
40 and 50 years of age, stout, with dark hair and
whiskers, and to have moved in a somewhat superior
station of life, his hands showing no signs of labour.
Ile had on a striped tweed coat and waistcoat, black
trousers and hat, with maker's name "Andr6, 127, New
Bond-street." On his person were two handkerchiefs,
one silk and the other white cambric, the latter marked
with the initials W. B. There was also a small knife,
but no money or other valuable whatever. He did not
appear to have been drinking.
SWINDLERS IN THE WEST.—Several towns in the west
have been visited within the last week by swindlers, who
have Succeeded in victimising respectable people to some
extent. At Dawlish, in. Devonshire, -a well-dressed,
middle-aged man, of gentlemanly appearance, took
lodgings at Mrs. Westcott's. Ho pretended to be very
nervous about catchiig cold, and was extremely parti-
cular that the house should be secure, and so on. A
friend of his lodged at Mrs. Spencer's, and was of similar
habits. One day the latter sent out and changed a 101.
note, and on receivin; the change went out to bathe.
He never returned, h3wever, to pay his lodgings, and
shortly after he had left, the 101. note was found to be
bad. The " fidgetty gentleman" at Mrs. Westcott's also
decamped, having changed several flash notes, and suc-
ceeded in passing a good deal of counterfeit coin. At
Taunton, in Somersetshire, a man about 30 years of age
and of genteel appearance, took respectable lodgings at
Mrs. Dyer's. lie had not been there long before he
tendered what appeared to bo a genuine 101. Bank of
England note in payment for some trifling articles, and
received back change in gold and silver. On Sunday
morning he hired a horse and vehicle of the landlord of
the Swan, to go for a drive ; but he never returned, and
the note was found to be bad. The rascal succeeded in ob-
taining clothes from a tailor of the town, which he has
not paid for.
BaLmonaL..—We understand that the work of build-
ing the new mansion-house for the Queen and Prince
Albert at Balmoral is now proceeding rapidly. The
snows among the mountains kept back the operations
till a very late period of the season ; but, latterly, a large
force of men has been engaged by the builder, who is
adding to their number. The walls are now consider-
ably above the level of the ground, and the work will,
no doubt, go on with celerity as the season advances.
THE TEA TRADE.—The Customs authorities have
issued a minute, with reference to the arrangements
made to meet the great pressure of business consequent
on the alterations of the Customs duties on tea, express-
ing their approbation of the zeal and alacrity manifested
by the officers of the tea department, and all others who
were employed during the extraordinary pressure of
business upon the recent occasion, as through the exer-
tions of those parties, both early and late, far beyond
the usual hours of attendance, the merchants and the
trade have been enabled to avail themselves of the bene-
fits conferred by the resolutions of the House of Com-
mons at the earliest possible period, and to an almost
unprecedented extent.
