PARIS, August Is, 1858.
We experienced on Sunday last tornado, which,
has had no parallel for the last twenty years ia te
mighty capitil of France and in the neighboring
cities and villages. The temperature had been quite
warm and sulry during the day. In the evening
the horizon was as red IS fire, and at nine o'clock
the night was pitch dark. But at half past eleven
as If by magic, the shower came down Is suddenly
as cannon ball, without being preceded by any
drops Of rain, as is usual. The thunder and light
ming were frequent as the turning Of the wheel Of
IN engine, and the whole was quite frightfal. The
streets Of Paris were Allied with water, and many
houses on the corners Of blocks invaded by the
water. The entrance Of the Theatre Francois, a
the Rue Richelieu, seemed TO be lake Of muddy wa
ter, and the audience who were leaving the theatre
were obliged TO pass over planks In order 70 reach
the entrance Of the Palais Royal. As for those VIVID

where the public congregate on Sundays, they wera
for the most part as well ducked" Is If they ha4
thrown themselves into the river. How many bon
nets, dresses and CATERS have been ruined by thu
rain, no one can tell. After all, this tornado viii b
fine affair for the milliners dressmakes and gate
dealers. Hta
