thunder and lightning. Every thing was destroyed

of man it is said there has not been so c,,tire a
destruction. Sixty hours after the dreadfit ca-
tastrophe, hailstones were found of the size
of an ordinary egg. The damage is estimated at
4,000,000 francs (upwards of 170,0001.) There
have been dreadful storms also in several other
quarters. In Deux 'Sevres, a space of seven
leagues was desolated by hail, which lay on the

of the hailstones weighed 12 ounces. There have

COPENHAGBNJ JULY 10.—The Russian Cou-
rier, Markow, has arrived here from retersburgh
with Dispatches, ,said to be of the highest
itn-
portssice.

" CALMS, JULY 10.—Last year several Gentle-
men conceived the project of establishing a
Pigeon Post between France and England. A
first trial was made between Calais and Brussels.
At the present moment, 32 of these messengers
have arrived at Calais from Antwerp, and have
passed the Strait on tbeir way to London.—
It is expected that a certain and rapid corres-
pondence may thus be established between London
and Antwerp."

Yesterday was Settling•day at the Stock Ex-
change, and this is the day for Payment ;
1,000,000, Stock was posted up this morning
at the Stock-Exahange, as not being delivered
yesterday.

The judicious suggestions in the letter from our
excellent Correspondent IGNOTUS, in THR SUN of
this day, render it unnecessary that we should say
subjectmuch o►a of the dangers with which we
menaced Are the
byR EBRLS and TRAITORS, under the
guise of REFORMERS. We trust that specious
those suggestions will be particularly attended to
by Government and the Magistracy. The Mis-
creants who have convened the Meeting in ques-
tion, are of the most desperate and flagitious de-
scription. Some of them are " ACQUITTED
FELONS," and unless they are stopped in time,
they will proceed to such excesses as will pro-
bably entail on theta the punishment which they
have often deserved, or upon the Country all the
dreadful consequences of a Revolution.

The following Letter has been addressed by
Viscotlla SIDMOUTH to the Lord Lieutenant at
the County of Chester, and we presume that his
Lordship has sent a similar Notice to every place
likely to require the same cautionary arrange-
ts

WHITEHALL, JULY 7, 1819.

" MY LOIM—The numerous Public Meetings which have
lately taken place-at Stochport and adjacent parts of Lanca-
shire, their manifest purpose, and the language which has
been held at them, have engaged the attention of his iViajcs-
ty's Government. Your Lordship's presence, under these cir-
cumstances, in the County of which your Lordship has the
charge, 'cannot but be highly desirable and important; In
order that, under your Lordship's authority, the most prompt
and effectual means may be adopted for the preservation of
the peace of the County of Chester. The utmost vi`•ilance
and activity on the part of the Magistrates, in these Dis-
tricts to which I have referred, is indispensably and urgently
necessary, to maintain, and enforce, if reouisite, obedience
to the laws, and to bring to justice those offenders by
whom they may be violated. Fur these purposes, it is earnest-
ly hoped that the power of the Civil Authorities will be fully
sufficient; but, as a measure of precaution, your Lordship is
desired to give immediate directions to the several Corps of
Yeomanry Cavalry in the County of Chester to hold them-
selves in readiness to attend to any call fur support and assis-
tance, which, in case of necessity, they may receive from the
Magistrates; and the utmost confidence is justly placed in the
ecal and promptitude with which, under such circumstances,
the call will be obeyed.
" I have the honour to he," &c. •
(Signed) " SIDMOUTH."

IVe have since heard that similar Letters have
been sent to Lancashire, the \Vest Riding of
Yorkshire, and Warwickshire—a proof that Go-
vernment is most commendably alert to maintain
the peace of the Country.

It we did not conceive that the worst that can
be imputed to The Morning Chronicle is, that it is

governed by Party Spirits Ave should think that
was guilty of more than imprudence, in publishing
yesterday the Rcsolutions of the Birmi
formers, are evidently framed b more art
ful and intelligent men than ostensi tly appear.
The Courier of last night commends The Chronicle
for " giving only the Resolutions,
a't orhittiog
the scurrilous harangues." ‘Ve cannot agree 01/11
that respectable Paper in this approbation, T"
" scurrilous harangues" are so violeviolent, so I"W'
so contemptible altogether, that they are nut
likely to Make much impression, except upoo tit
most ignorant Rabble ; but the Resolutions arc
pregnant with deep mischief, and by the speciough
reasoning and dt-sive them ies which the/
contain, are -calculated to mislead people °I °
higher order, but who are, nevertheless, not obit
to detect the insidious artifices of Sop'•istry, nll3
the ensnaring alltirements of popular declamation'
Wc hope, therefore, for its own credit, !tilt
Chronicle will no longer be the vehicle of such
dangerous doctrines.; but, as it professes to
bC
attached to our good Old Constitution, resoildelf
endeavour to support it against those who love
no other view than to effect its entire anssibi4
lation.

THE PRINCE REGENT'S GRAND BALL.

We have already described many of the dresses worn by
the Ladies at this Fete. The chief object of the
,PtuNce
REGENT in giving a Fancy Dress Ball was, to cause a great
demand fur a number of different articles of dress, jewellery,
&c.; and this object was in a great des 'ree effected by the
great variety of custume assumed by the distinguished visi-
tors, and the magnificence of most of the dresses.
Very little extra preparation was wade at Carlton-house for
the ate. To guard against excessive heat, the windows of
the state Rooms were openea, and remained in that state;
and to prevent inconvenience from currents of air, they were
fitted with canvass blinds in frames. The whole of this suite
of rooms were opened for the occasion, including the Regent's
Closet. The room set apart for dancing was the second froiu
the Grand Hail, the floor of winch was most tastefully deco-
raled by au eminent Artist. One of the windows was taken
out fof the purpose of fitting
,up a temporary Orchestra, in
which was stationed a very numerous and excellently selected
Basal of the first-rate performers. The (quadrilles were led
by Mr. Muyart, tl,s, Country Dances by Mr. Gow, under the
direction of Mr. Rice. The whole of the suite of rooms were
biilliantly illuminated, and decorated with growing plants,
exotics, &c. The Gentlemen composing the Band had access
to the Orchestra from the hack, without interfering with the
rang,-ements in Carlton-house, by passing through the Red-
house.

At eight o'clock in the evening the Porters in their state
liveries, with their long staves and splendid scarfs, were at
their posts in the Lodges where the carriages entered.
The side doors were opened for chairs, Where livery ser-
vants wete stationed to yonduct then►. Tue Marshahnen,
the Gentlemen and Under Porters, were in attendance. Four

additional lamps were lighted on the outside of the grand
entrance. The whole of the court-yard and out-buildings
bad additional lamps. On each Side of the Grand Hail were
eterg►eras, plants, &c. brought from the Royal Gardens. On
one side, tables were placed fur refreshments, un which were
two large s►iver candetaurits, containil.g twelve uoconntionly. .
large wax candles. In the Octagon Hill was a chandelier,
in winch were twelve patent lamps. On the sta►rcase lead-
ing to the lower suite of rooms we►e placed trees, plants,
flowers, &c. In this suite of apartments, rooms weir set
apart for refreshments and supper. the principal d►niug-
room, and the temporal)/ room i❑ the garden, which was
used fur the ref' esinuent at the late tioveni;r Bali, were aft
apart for supper. Retres►,uients were served also from the
Octagon Itoo►o and Council Chanu►er in the St4te Rooms.
