The STORM OF WEDNESDAY, IN CoNIcrIcUT.-
Several ofthe towns in this vicinity were visited by
a severe bail storm on Wednesday evening II
passed entirely around this city, but we hear OF at
the north, south, and west of us. At Meriden, hail
fell in such quantities that it might be shovelled up
and largely damaged the crops. At Somers, the
hail was OF an unusual sze-as large as a hens egg .
A letter from q gentleman of chat place says:-
"Ihe hail and rain storm of Saturday last had but
just passed over leaving marks of its fury which
will not soon be forgotten, prostrating fruit and
shade trees and doing damage to corn, tobacco, and
other field crops, when We we're again visited
"wednesday afternoon) by storm more destruc-
tive in its efects-wth the exception Of wnd-than
the one Of Saturday last. The storm commenced
with hail about as large as two ounce balls, and
increased in size until those larger than q common
hens egg were showered down upon US, n nearly
to cover the ground. Some Of the stoi gathered
weighed more than two ounces, and measured six
inches and more in circumference. The rough, ir-
regular shape of the bail was unlike any ever seen
hereabouts before. 1t is impossible to estimate the
quantity OF window glass broken. Not house
escaped without mark upon its windows by the
hail Many fields Of tobacco are ruined" In
West Sufieid the storm was equally severe. The
bail stones were, many of them, as large or larger
than hens eggs; one was picked up after the
shower which weighed seven ounces and they
were so plenty that one picked up, in five min
utes, one and one fourth bushels. Hartford Conn

an ounce each. During the storm the lightning
struck the mainmast of the schooner Byzantine,
lying at Evans wharf, South Cove, and shivered
it into thousand and one pieces. Four men, in
the cabin at the time, were Frustrated and stunned
by the shock, but recovered without receiving fur
