 GOSHEN, N. Y. July 2.
 Destructive HGI StOrm.--The north west part of our county has been visited by most extraordinary and destructive hail storm, de- strOyiDg in it's course acres of most beautiful grain. On Monday afternoon last, there was violent shower, accompanied with hail, com menced in the north part of the town of Cal hOun, passed across the town of Minisink to BroOkhRId, and from thence extending through the Drowned Lands to Pine Island and Amity, in the town of Warwick, fields of grain were completely destroyed, Some far mers lost all they had sown; scarcely spear left standing. We have heard that sev- eral individuals estimate their losses at $500.
 The size of the hail stones were unusually large. averaging from three quarters to one inch in diameter. Many pains of glass were broken. In the Brookfield Meeting House, something like l5O were destroyed, and in Amity Meeting House still larger number. It made great havoc among the poultry, ,and we are told that even calves were much in- jured. On the day after the storm, large quantities of the hail stones were collected in places, bushels were scraped together and deposited in ice houses.
 Thus were blasted in few short minutes, the well-founded hopes of many of our far mers, who to all appearance seemed justified in anticipating abundant crops; but at the same time. we are all practically taught val able lesson, upon the uncertainty of things in this lifn.-Ind. Rep.
