THE HAGUE, JULY I.—A letter from Carlsruhe:of the
25th of June hai the following statem.n

" An extraordinary general meeting of the Centre!
Manufacturing Association of the Grand Duchy of Baden
has been held here, in the last three days. Besides the
Baden manufacturers, there was a great number of
others from Bavaria. VVurtemburg, Prussia, &c. The
steps to be taken at the next Congress of the eputies
of the ZollsreFeiii,The interest of the German rnanufac -
turers, were the chief subject of the discussions which
were in general very animated, probably in consequence
of the report gaining ground, that the greatest of the
States composing the Zollverein will give to the Pleni-
potentiary at this Congress instructions contrary to the
wishes of the German manufacturers. The re.ult was.
resolutions that the President of the Association sh. uld
propose an address to the Gov,rntnent, requesting it to
propose to the next meeting of the Congress modifica-
tions of the tariff. conformable to the wishes expressed by
the Legislative Assemblies of the States of Southern
Germany."

the royal livery, and left Hampton in the direction of Slough,
whence they would proceed by railway to Badminton.
THE WFATHEE AND CROPS.-I)Hling the last
week frequent arid heavy showers have fallen ; and on Friday it
rained incessantly. Some of the crops in the neighbourhood were
in consequence considerably laid ; but they have recovered in a
great degree from the effects of the rain, owing to the
light breezes which have since prevailed. The aspect
of the country has now become a'ike beautiful and luxu-
riant, and it would be difficult to remember a time when the
crops, whether white or green, gave fairer promise of autumnal
abundance.into it,

ANDO BR, I'IIIIRSDAY, JULY 3.—This morning,
p.shortlyssed beforeover th eten o
town,
ock,a
accompaniedheav y
byst rain, which fell in torrents;orm of thunder and lightning
the storm was of short duration, and the weather, which had been
previously unusually cold, became very sultry and oppressive.
Happily, no damage was occ. sioned by the lightning in the town,
but we regret to state that at the village of Fullerton, about three
miles distant, a man, named Joy, who was employed, with three
horses, harrowing upon the farm of Mr. Henry King, was struck
by the electric fluid, which entered the crown of his hat and passed
into the earth, through the roles of his shoes, causing his instant
death ; the valuable horses he was attending were also killed, in the
presence of their owner, Mr. King, who was directing his servant to
take the horses into their stable when the awful event occurred. By
the mercy of a kind Providence Mr. King received no injury. The
same storm was also felt severely at Abbottsann, near Andover.
where the tower of the church sustained some damage by the
lightning.
