- On litaiday, the ed of July, between four and
6ve o'clock in the afternoon, there was, at Dundee,.
most tremendous storm of thunder.and lightning.
11.11 e peals of thunder were uncommonly loud, and
the lightning was extremely vivid. The lightning
fell on Mr. Kiel's house at Monorgan, and did Can-
giderabk damage. One of the chimney tops was
thrown down/and a great number of slates torn
from the roof. Most of the windows were broken
and shattered to pieces. The lightning ran along the
bell-wires, and entered three bed-rooms,which it
tirely dismantled. The back was driven from a
eliest of drawers, and part of the cloth that covered
them was burnt. The three maids, who were in the
11°11se at the- time,"made a narrow escape. , The
OQ4 of one of them Was a little scorched. They
were all so much stunned with the noise, that it was
some time betore they could hear distinctly. There
were two ducks killed. Mr. and Miss Kiel were
lortnnately front home.
Yesterday morning, for a wager of five guineas, a
matt of the name of Daniel Grant, 50 years of age,
undertook to walk from Shoreditch to Ware, in
Hertfordshire; in four hours„ and after resting two
hours, to walk back again in the same space of time.
He started at three o'clock, stopped twice on the
road, and arrived at Ware ten minutes before seven ;
after resting the time' allowed, he started afresh, and
completed the whole by half past twelve o'clock,
winning his wager by half an hour: sevee.d bets were
depending upon the issue. The whole distance is
42 miles.
