have been permitted to read letter from ?
young gentleman in Montgomery, to frienc
in Frankfort. from which we learn that IN,
North end of Montgomery county (ky.) was
visited by terrible and destructive storm on
the 9Th inst, by which the dwellings Of Mr..
Kemper and Mrs. Mitchell were prostrated,
and the family of the latter buried benesth her
dwelling. Mrs Mitchell and Mrs. Anderson
were both killed instantly. Several other per
sons in the house Of Mrs. Mitchell, to vii,
James Mitchell, Mr.. Callahan, Miss Treadway
and Mrs. s. Mitchell, and her little son, were
severely injured the latter, it is feared, NOR

THi SrAMxsr TwNs-The Siamese Twins
are living in North Carolina, as farmers, and
both are married. A correspondent of the
Richmond papers, who has recently visited
their home, writes some interesting details in
relation TO their domestic life.
The twins can chop wood remarkably fast,
four hands on the axe at the same time. They
also shoot at mark or game with their four
hands resting on the gun. They drive their
horses 10 miles to Wilkes, themselves and
do any kind Of work about the farm. Mrs
Eug says her husband is very kind to the ne
groes, and that Chang is very severe with
them. Mrs. Eng is also better disposed than
Mrs. Chang, although Mrs. Chang is
prsttiest. Mrs. Eng is very close and saving ;
and Mrs. Chang is disposed TO indulge
ia dress and various other expen-
SIS Tne twins rarely differ about dress bul
often differ in their ideas of purchasing negroes
or land. The opinion of Eng il always the
law, and Chang readily acquiesces Eng does
all the writing including the signing of notes
and other important papers. Eng is one inch
taller than Chang, and Chang's wife is taller
than Engs.
Some old lady in the neighborhood few
days ago. asked Eng which was the oldes. =
aud he replied that he was just SIX nionlh.
Older than MS brother. Well, says the old
lady, thought there was as much difference,
for you are purity considerable bigger than
your brother. They are both good at a joke,
and the old lady was in earnest. They have a
blacksmiths shop on their farm and shoemak-
ers shop also. | saw good sized frame
house that they made, without any assistance
from foundation to roof. At the table they
usc a bench, and each his own knife and fork.
asked them if they both expected to die al
the same time ! and they replied that 1t could
not be otherwise for if the same disease did
not take them OFF at one time, the living one
would have TO be separated from the dead
body, and the act of separation would be his
death but their general impression is, thai
they will both die at the same time. Their al
fcciion for each other is very strong. And
on the neighbors offering an insult to the one,
the other immediately resen,s it; and ii woult
take champion to cope with them in rough
and tumble fight. To use an expression Of
their ncighbors, ''they fight like cats"
