CARLISLE, JULY IL

Tuesday evening we were visited, in this
bourhood, by a very severe storm of lightnc.
thunder, and rain, of considerable duration. it
tended fiont Carlisle over nearly the wh.,le of t:t
northern and eastern parts of the county. h
particularly violent at Alston Moor. The lightr„g
struck the house of Mr. WILLIA:4 WALTON, yd
instantly killed Mrs.W.AtzoN, his wife. llr.ss. ar,4
his daughter were both struck senseless to the groccd
lby the same flash, and their recovery is yet
doubtful. A cow and several sheep, beiong:474
Mr.WALTON, were also killed at the same ir.omez,
At GI imoor Hill, near this city, the lightning kiiled
a cow, while her calf, which ws standing by it
side, escaped uninjured.

Saturday se'nnight, a commercial traveller flan
Glasgow, met with an unfortunate accident, ahGA
six miles from Dumfries, on the Castle Douglas !vat,.
The day being very warm, Mr.M. wasendearonrir.g
to flap away the flies that were tormenting his ham,
when the reins got under the animal's tad, at 'Rhin
taking fright he set off at full speed, and hi the eld
threw the rider ft., m the gig, by which accident it is
feared .both his legs were broken. Mr. M. was ez4.
tied into the nearest farm-house and at present lies
in a very weak though not a dangerous state.
Monday se'l.night, a womau of Newtown, ichi",e
bathing her Infant child in tl:e river Eden, so frigk,
ened or otherwise injured it loy ti:ree. successive and
rapid immersions, that the poor little innocent et.
Fired be. it could be conveyed home! Her lrls.
band and several of her children were present.
The farmers of tha West-Itidic3 of orkri r. rt
engaged in the hay harvest, and a finer sea,u4 f_-
this purpose there has not been in the memory
man. The Wht at crops are healthy and prourlsing.
A letter front Lewes, of yesterday's date, says:—
" Our f.irmers ale with cheerfulness looking fumes
to a golden ha: v, st ; the Wheats, which had the be.
.refit of a fine refreshing rain on Saturday night, are
fast growing to maturity, and will, in some plaers.
he read., fur the sickle in a week or ten days. A
season more favou:::!,le to the growth of v.i.eat, 1.:45

never experienced. The qualify, from present ;
pearances, must be excellent, and the quantity mote
abundant ; the poor therefore, after harvest, may ex-
pect a good lost, at a moderate price."
Sunday night about eleven o'clock, Mr. GAiLtif;
a merchant, residing in Cornhill, was passing thronA
Fore-street, on his way home, when he was met lra
robust looking man, who in a strong Bbet clan lc.
cent-asked charity: Mr. G. took Ito notice of the
' man ; but the latter followed him and became so es.
ceedingly ciamourous in his demands, that Mr. G.
threatened to call a watchman. Upen this two cler
men came from the opposite side of the stem, rid
in a moment Mr. G. was knocked doem, and robbed
of a gold watch, &c. worth about 70 guineas, LIS is
2ar.k notes, a check for £lO, and some sliver. Tile
ra.Tans were making off, when Mr. G. gave an slam
and they were immediately pursued by two wrack,
men and one of the City patroles across Moorfiede.
After a considerable run they were overtaken, and a
desperate scuffle ensued, in which the watchmea
were beaten senseless, and the patrole got a severe
cut across the face. The robbers finally made the;/
escape. One of the watchmen received such scree
treatment, that yesterday morning he was thought to
be in considerable danger. Mr. G. who is upwards
of 66 years of age, has since been very nnwelL Oae
of the villains is well known to the patrole.
At the Louth Assizes, Owen Gainer and Hvgi
Kiern, or Kiernan, were indicted for the murder of
Edward Lynch and family, at Wildgoose-lodge, and
were found guilty,
salter a trial which lasted several
hours. The prisoner Gainer appeared affected; but
Kiernan was hardened to a degree beyond concep-
tion. Whilst every one was melted by his Lonishp s

upon
his prosecutors. Of all the miscreants brought to
trial for this diabolical crime, Kiernan seemed to be
the most hardened and wicked. He was taken back
to the jail, uttering execrations all the way. They
suffered on Monday last.
