TREMENDOUS TFIUNDER STORM.—ThC
most ,awful thunder storm ever recollected by the oldest
person who beard it, took place about three or four o'clock
on the morning of Friday last. The flash of lightning,
which preceded the report by about two seconds, was bril-
liant in the extreme; but it is impossible that the loudest
discharge of the heaviest artillery could exceed the long and
appalling peal of thunder, it seemed to threaten the town
with destruction, but very fortunately the lightning fell in
a field within a quarter of a mile of the town. It tore up
the ground for the distance of half a mile, and levelled every
wall that came within its range. We are happy to add
that no loss has been sustained by the destruction of cattle
or property.—Connaught Journal.

in makmg the preparations necessary for a struggle, should

nation of a candidate, or candidates, is in contemplation.
There is no foundation, we believe, for the rumour of it,
no probability of his retiring
being the intention of Mr. WILLIAM H. LA3usroN, tiro
brother of the present Member, to offer himself. Tht,
Durham Chronicle, of the same date, says, "111t5 have,
