Yesterday, about 6 O'Clock, r. M. a
cloud from the N. w. highly charged with
the electric huid, denoted no ordinary tenn
pest. In 80 minutes it covered the whole
horizon, and extended TO appearance THO
the whole extent of the country. The
lightning was vivid beyond parallel in this
climate, and was incessant until about 2
o'clock this morning. The oldest people
do not remember tempest so awfulIy ter
rife, nor one Of the kind Of SO long dura-
ton. 1t would be impossible for Inc to
picture in language the whole scene of con-
aagrations Of buildings, mixing the blaze
with that of the lightning, exciting feel
ing of terror not well to be expressed
The lightning struck in many places, but
the damage as yet learned, has been in no
ways proportionate to our apprehensions.
A barn in Brooks, full Of the products Of
the season, belonging to Mr.. Bowen. was
consumed.
Rumor has circulated many reports of the
destruction of property, and in some in
stances of lives--bnt as some Of them want
as yet confirmation, | shall torbear TO give
them at present. We expect from other
quarters the most distressing intelligence.
God grant that we may be disappointed!

lte'er when solemn stiffness reigns,
Our waketul eyes vigil keep;
When all along the silent plains
The voice of nature seems to sleep,
H rp oflhe winds, oh ! let the gale
Aw axe the sadly pleasing wall
Thy mingling chords so mild are flung,
So soft their 6ttul murmurs ring,
They thrill as if an angel sung,
Or Ariel's finger touch'd the string!
Harp CT the winds, oh let the gale
Still wake thy sadly pleasing wall.
Now the notes aw While complain,
Now they with the breeze decay
Hank they cease, they breathe again,
A moment swell, then melt away!
But all more sweet bis heavenly strain,
Who with ltalia's poet sung,
Can aught The raptured ear eucnain.
Like airs that Ger his Tyre nave rung?
H.rp oi the winds, Thy pensive tone,
i b. mildest thrill were ali his own.
Each mingled chord, each wandering not.
His magick touch would oft combine,
As dyes that DER the azure float,
Together in the rainbow shine!

Harp of the winds, thou art his Tyre
In song he closed life's aeeting day,
Like the swan when death Is nigh,
His requiem was bis parting lay,
Its closing strain his latest sigh!

his wife, two or three children, and young
lady Of the neigbborhood, were the only
persons in the house at the time; some
bread was baking by the fire to which Mrs.
C.. was attending, when Mr.. Cree, having
young child in his arms, arose and step

not injured. The Fash was supposed to
have passed down the chimney Mrs.
Cree was also struck and lay apparently

recovered. No marks were perceivable
