SERIOUS STORM.-The storm on Thurs,

extended throughout eastern Pennsylvania,
doing in some places, very considerable
damage Among the sufferers in BerLs,
the Adler names William Fisher, of Bern
township, who had two barns unroofei,
and John Kramer, of the same township,
one. In Muhlepberg township the dwell

the chimney of John Van Reads paper
mill, was blown down and the roof dam
aged A good deal of other damage was
done to buildings. fences, sheds, &c, in the
neighborhood. In the vicinity Of Ku:z-
town, as We learn from the Giest der Zs:',
the storm also occasioned much damage.
The gable end Of Kute's barn, two miles
from Kutztown, vas blown down, and sew

mand of the English language wa,
imperfect, and as he rarely spoke Of
himself, the foregoing incidents were
known to few if any of his acquaintances
here, until after his recall to Europe. l,
having become known that his funds were
not fully equal to the expense of the
homcward voyage, moderate sum was
privately collected and placed in his hands
TO aid his return; but if the facts Of his
history had been generally known to our
c'iEens, and public demonstration per-
mi;trd-to which, however, he was sensi-
lively avcrse-we have no doubt bounti-
ful contribution would have been gladly

MrGcssner has kindly furnished US with
the following Translation of farewell let
ter received from Maj.W. before he left A.:
POTTsGRovE, Jan. 81, 1854.
My DEAR FRIEND: The very little time
left to prepare for my departure does make
1t impossible to set out to-day and l can
leave this country no sooner than to-mor-
row evening with the stage from Milton.
To leave so many good and noble friends
to leave you in particular, my dear friend,
whose bro,herly sympathy and comforting
encouragement have soo'hed many hours of
your departing friend; that thought filled
my heart with bitter sadness For all you
have done and what you intended to do
likewise receive my warmest-my sincerest
The God of all nations will bless you
will bless my efforts also, that may sue
ccssfully assist my gallant countrymen to
gain liberty for our dear fatherland-lib-
cr'y for all who are oppressed, Should |
hear or see anything interesting for you,
you shall always have a true account of it.
Farewell, my friend, farewell remcm-
Der me 20 all those who have any sympathy
for myself or my cause, and accept the
assurance Of my undying respect and love.
Yours, GUSTAV WAGNER,
Major.

"Louis Napoleon is preparing for war

Bourbons in France. Hence, notwi,h.
standing his present apparent friendly re-

Austria, he will, in a few mouths, strike
for the Italian States, and attempt to hold
them as the cost Of Austrian alliance with
Russia. and the O-leanis.S and Legitimists.

Our Main Street,

Would it not be well for all our citizens
residing on Market street, to scrape the
mud from the portion in front of their
several lots We should then have a
beautiful and clean Macadamized street,
croditable to our borough and comfortable
to ourselves and what is of still more
consequence, we should not be annoyed in
dry weather,as We now are, with intolorable
clouds Of dust. The destruction to furni-
ture and goods, by the dust, is not incon-
siderable.
No manure is so valuable as the scrap
ings of street, macadamized as ours is
with limestone. One cart-load of it, is
worth ten cart-loads of stable manure.
Why then should it be spread over our
beautiful main street, TO our annoyance
and loss, when it might proftably be
removed by each resident and placed on
his garden? NJ.
