SINGULAR PHEyoNENoy.---A severe snow
storm accompanied by lightning occurred in a
part Of Maine on the 18th ult. A correspondent
of the Gardiner (Me.) Fountain, writing from
Bass Harbor Mt. Desert, describes the storm.
as 1t appeared there, as awful and sublime. A
thunder cloud passed over the place, which, for
terrific appearance, exceeds any thing ever wit
messed there. The correspondent adds:
The lightning was of a purple color. and
sometimes appeared like balls Of fire, coming
in through windows and doors. and down the
chimneys, while the houses trembled and shook
to their very foundations
Mrs. K. Holden was near window. win6inr
up a clock; ball Of fire came in through the
window and struck her hand, which bennmbed
her hand and arm. She then, with all in the
house, retreated into the entry. Another flash
succeeded, and IN the room from which they
had retired, resembled a volume of fire, whiri
ing round and producing a cracking noise. A
similar appearance of fire was seen. and crack.
ling noises were heard in a large number of the
houses. Some, who heard the noise. say that it
sounded like breaking glass.
Capt. Maurice Rich had his light extinruisb
ed, and his wife was injured. He got his wife
on to bed, and found a match; at that instant
another Hash came aud ignited the match. and
threw him several feet backwards. John l.
Martin received so severe a shock that he could
not speak for a long time.
great many persons were slightly injured.
Some were struck in the feet, some in the eve:
while others were a. ani,.ei,.-1
and some lightly. But what was singular, not
carson was killed or seriously injured, or any
gAldinr damaged; bat cluster OF trees, within
y few rods Of two dwelling houses, were not
thus fortunate. The electric fluid came down
unon them---taking them ont by the roots, with
stones and earth, and throwing all IN every d.
rection. Some were left hanging by their roots
from .he tops Of the adjacent standing trees,
roots up, tops down:
The lightning, after entering the earth to the
depth of several feet and for a space some
eiJht or ten feet in diameter, divided into four
directions. One course which it took led thro
the omen land, making chasm to the depth OF
several feet, and continued its march unob5truc-
ted by the solid frozen ground, or any other sub
stance to the distance Of 80 feet; lifting, over
turning, and throwing ont iunks Of frozen earth,
come of which were 10 or ii feet long by feet
Ionr by 4 feet wide, and hurting at a distance
rocks. stones and roots. The power here dis
nlaved was truly awful, and had it fallen on
building. it would have thrown it, with Its IN
mates into ten Thousand fragments.
