out of
the market-place down Wheeler-gate, filling the low kit-
chens in its course. The lightning was extremely vivid,
and one flash struck a chimney on the south west corner of

street, and the electric fluid, passing down the chimney
shaft, set fire to a quantity of cotton fibre. The room was
-instantly in a blaze, but it was fortunately discovered by
Mr. Hodgson, and put out in a few minutes. tome of tne
hailstones were three or four inches in circumference, and
were in shape something like broadbeans. The storm, which
was confined almo3t exclusively to Nottingham, lasted but
ten minutes, and was followed bya brilliant evening. A large
number of panes were broken, and the low kitchens in the
streets, whele there was the slightest descent, were filled
with water.
