Court, the Declaration signed by the Ministers

testimony of their justice and love of order.—

• AWFUL TEMPEST.-011 Monday, the 28th ult.
*(111e of the most tremendous and awful tempests
. visited Whittlesea, which far exceeded any thing
of the kind ever known in that neighbourhood ;
it Was not of long duration, but the violence of
the thunder and vividity of the lightning were
dreadfully alarming. About four o'clock a poor
"lan, of the name of John Smith, who was em-
ployed in unloading manure from a cart in the
'?Pen field to the north-east of the town, was
Killed upon the spot; the dung heap was set on
Joked
by the electric fluid, and the horse which was
J2ked to the cart ran away without doing any
v'aterial injury. The following day an inquest
wbl. t4ken by Mr. Pratt, upon view of the body,
a„ ell had the most singular and awful appear-
to:e) being scorched and torn in a manner never
th be forgotten by those whose official duty led
t"1 to the view. It appeared in evidence, that
men, who, like the deceased, were employed
till the field, were overtaken by the storm, and
I°°k shelter under their carts; that, soon after the
4.t Clap of thunder, they saw a cart (partly un-
t
luaded) drawn by one horse, running towards
,„ t"; it immediately occurred to them that the
thV" who was unloading the cart was killed :
ey stopped'the horse with great difficulty, and
d him back to the manure heap, which they
°""d to be on fire; saw the deceased lying dead,
b most frightful spectacles his clothes were
s"rnt, torn and scattered around him in all direc-
t":4ls, not a garment which he had on him es-
caped; no piece so large as the palm of the hand
o°4ld be found that was not torn or burnt; he had
h,tt very stout pair of high-shoes, one of
lueh with the laces was torn to atoms, except
e. sole which was very thick and full of nails
elther his other high-shoe or hat could be found
at
all. The body lay on the right side, and there
toas an indenture on the ground, which appeared
have been made by the head, although the
ground was hard at the time of his fall. The right
IA! was broken, and the bone protruding through
lice ski" a large contusion on the left side of the
apar,ds the body nearly stripped naked, and the
terrearance of his having received the whole bat-
-80 aYi°l the electric shock. The poor men were
uponart"ed as to be scarcely able to determine
stances hat should be done under the circum-
con ; however, when they had sufficiently
hboected themselves, the remains of their fellow
fatnirer were conveyed home to his distressed
Y.---Verdict--44 Killed by lightning."
A

a I'loCli.lNG CIRCUMSTANCE happened last
week at Eye, near Peterborough. The ser-
a. harce' brit-tnan of Messrs. LITTLE, millers, received
;vasy the Lynn coach, containing what
at first supposed to be part of a bride-
Lis
ake.
The man thinking the parcel was for
it, masters, gave it to them without opening
h Mr. George Little, supposing the cake to
itave been sent by some of his friends, ate part of
id.;_giving the remaining part to some others of the
4"IY. They were all taken very ill. Three
them having ate but sparingly, recovered ; but
Is• LITTLE suffered most excruciating pain for
Itlio nY days, and is yet in a dangerous state, though
Iles are entertained of his recovery. It has
mitt_

Pge quantity of Spanish flies ; and it is suppos-
Was sent as a love-cake, or charm, to Mr.,
