.HVroS, had become prey TO the Aanes.-This
church, which is one fthe largest, the richest and
most ancient in the capital of the Catholic world
was remarkable for the elegance Of its structure,
and the five colonades Of Greek and African marble
which supported its nayes.-Twenty -four of these
pillars OF African marble, were taken from the tomb
OF Hadren, in what is called the castle of Saint
Angen. They were, when the accounts of the 10Th

VIOLENT TEMPEST

About two O'Clock on Sunday last, we wit
messed an unusually violent tempest, accom-
panied with lightning thunder and rain-ir
winch the most awful grandeur of HIM who
rIdcth in the whirlwind, and directeth In,
storm, are seldom manifested.
In this and the neighbOuring towns, several
barns and sheds were unroofed, and many
fences and trees laid PROSTATE. But these
should not be mentioned, before we speak oil
the awiul calamity which has belallen our
friends and neghbOrs in Monlyille.
AS singular coincidence, we would remark K.
that no sooner bad their Rev. Pastor finished
reading hymn, at the opening of Divine Ser
wee, beginning with these words:
Methinks the last great day has come.
MethInks hear the trumpet sound
That shakes the earth, rends every tomb.
