Several detkisitions of Atnericans have been pub-

On the 12th instant, about ex o'clock in the of er-
noon, a terrible storm collected over this city. accom
[sallied with such dal kn:ss, that it was sun possible to
see in the houses without candles. A very low hang.
ing cloud threatened Dresden and the environs with
great injury: The water poured down in torrents,
and a water-spout was feared, when a storm of wind'
haepily arose and dispersed the tempest; it returned,
however, in the night, beat down the corn, damaged
and threw down our walls, and tore trees out of the
ground. The lightning struck buildings in several
places: at Nieder-Itheansberg, a farmhouse, wit► all
the out-buildings, :30t) sheep, and several cattle, were
burnt.—The unfavourable weather for the corn (not
any scarcity), has caused a very great rise in use
