The squally weather that prevailed for some days
last week, encrea'ed on Sunday to a violent gale, in
Glasgow, and occasioned a.v aria>, of accidents d,.irirg
the night in that city. Very serious injury was dote
to a Gentleman's house in Wellington-rlace. An
adjoining chimney fell upon the roof, with a ter.
rible crash, and carried every thing before it to the
first floor. Two bed-room; were completely clettrol -
ed ; and it was owing to the providential absence t t
part of the family that the catastrophe was not at-
tended with a much more fatal result. One of the
windows on the roof of the College was blown down,
and in its descent broke off a portion of the project-
ing ornament on the front of that edifice. A consider-
able portion of the tiles on the roof of one of the build-
ings for the reception of Typhus patients, were forced
off. There were a great number of smaller accidents.
FLpitExcli MACARTIIY.— A • Fcourtla Edition of this
interesting New Work of 'Lady MORGAN'S is just
published.. A celebrated Critic makes the following
observations on the ingenious and spirited writer :
" Foremast in the ranks of those IN ho, have given to the novel,
the historical character, must be placed the Author of Waverlj,
and the writer now under review. If, in estimating the preten-
sions of these candidates for the civic wreath of literature, the
palm of profundity and erudite attainment must be awarded to
the former, that of a more needful political benevolence is indi.,-
putably the right of the latter. Lady Morgan has not only
national characteristics to delineate and
.preserve; she has to
combat against those partialities and prejudic s which still ol'e-
rate in society much, and in political institutions much utGre.
This she has done in a series of aoveh which brings before cc in
the most vivid portraiture, the manners and habits, the virttes
and the prejudice.s of the various classes of the Irish nation ; and
she has contrived to weave these grotesque but intcrestiog tuae-
, rials in threads of such ingenious intricacy that the read, r is
irresistibly led forward, as through a magic maze, without being
aware at the time, of the variety of valuable Janina/ion he is
collecting by the way.
