AWFUL. CALAMITY-LOSS OF THIRTY.EIGHT

LIVHS!

The most awful thunder &M;;;ver recollected within the
' memory of some of the oldest people in the neighbourhood er
Killarney, took place on Thursday last. at Glanfiesk, near
that town, about two o'clock at noon. The peasantry in that
romantic glen were astounded with its frightful peals, wbeirP.
were succeeded by several water-anouts pouring front the
heavens until the whole glen was deluged. &vend live,
bare been lost in the flood; an entire faintly, consisting of
eight persona, of the name of booley, tenants of O'lltene-
ghue's, were swept away; their bodies, together with three,
other, have been found on the banks of the rivet Fkok. Pe-
nt& whet persons are still missing, and it is supposed Mrs

that gentleman and • few friends intended to sojourn during
the shooting season, was actually swept away, together with
furniture and provisions, with which ws understand It was
pleetitully supplied. Flak bridge, near Killatney, was
crowded with the inhabitants, who collected deers for the
purpose of viewing the dreadful ravages of the flood; mule
of every description, cows, sheep, and pigs, together whiz
large quantities of hay and turf, were seen dashing along
under the arches with toilful tepidity, without the slightest
possibility of saving either life or property. We under-
stand also, that a bridge near the river's source, was corn-
plenty demolished. This awful visitation of the Almighty
dispenser of events, has mated a considerable sensation to
the minds of the retitle in the neighbourhood where it took
place.—Kerry /cal.

On Thursday last, about one *clock. a water spout burst
upon the Clidagh mountains, conwy Kerry, within two
miles of the Ballymenrney road, by which a vast tract or
ground under tillage was totally destroyed, and nine persons
Wm their lives. Fortunately the Killarney mail coach
passed about twenty minutes before. or the consequence
must have been fatal, as the Glanflesk bridge was covered,
awl the bettlements swept away. The bed of the Flesh
river is 38 feet from the centre arch of the bridge, and wins,

flowed over the battlements. Throe bosom have been swept
