TERRIBLE HAIL SToRM.-We learn that a
terrible hail storm passed over the northern
part Of the towns of De Witt and Manlius,
on Sunday afternoon, destroying the corn,
buckwheat and oats, and terribly muulating
trees. Some of the hail-stones were as large
as common sized hens eggs, and cut ev-
erything growing into shreds The windows
of houses also suffered greatly. In three
houses, those of Cloud Wands, Gershom
Fuller, and Archibald Fuller, in Collmer,
nearly every pane was broken. This is the
most severe hail storm that has passed over
that section Of the country for years, and the
damage sustained is large. Many fine fields
of buckwheat, oats and corn, are utterly de-
stroyed. Fortunately the harvest has nearly
passed, or the loss would have nearly ruined
several farmers in that vicinity. The storm
continued about fifteen minutes, and came
from the north west Syracuse Journal, 18th.

The SPANISH REVOLUTION. - The Madrid
correspondent of the London Times, writing
on the 10th July, from Madrid, remarks that
this is no ordinary Spanish pronuncjamento,
beginning in noise and ending in smoke it
has all the earnestness and ferceness of
Partisan revolution, without the lawless and
aimiess disorder and destructveness which
characterize a French outbreak.
lie adds: During the whole Of this remarka-
bic revolution, which has now lasted three
days and nights, l have not seen a single in
stance of misconduct, of theft, outrage, or
drunkenness. Other persons, who, like my
self, have been great deal among the insur-
gents, have made the same remark. Nothing
could be more admirable than the conduct of
the people. Certainly no paper here, however
addicted to the system of tyranny and cor
ruption that has just been overthrown, will
venture to assert the contrary. The HeraJdo
has ceased to appear, and its editors, Messrs.
Sartorious and Mora, have fed, or are i'll con-
cealment. But as it is possible that certain
foreign papers, actuated by the same motives
(whatever they may bed that induced them
to uphold the late detestable regime, will en-
deavor to attribute all manner of crimes to
the Madrid insurgents, think it right to give
my testimony, backed by that Of other eye
witnesses, foreigners like myself, 10 their ex-
celent conduct, their consideration for the
inhabitants, their resistance of temptation. 1t
will be great pity if so we'll ordered a reyo-
luton should fail to bear the good fruits eX-
pected of it.

MURDER OF PLAYMATE BY LITTLE
BoY.-Tho Galena AdUerttser notes the fact
that lad named George jackson, aged twelve
years, was committed to jail in Galena, day
or two since, for the murder of playmate,
called Elias Horn, aged sixteen. Both boys
were residents of Melville, in that county,
They went to Apple River together, and Jack
son returned alone.I In answer to an inquiry for
his companion, he said he was drowned
Search was made for the body, and it was
found that the deceased had been shot, the
ball entering his mouth. jackson now says
he shot him by swapping the gun at him, with
out knowing it to be loaded. His accusers
think he killed him for dollar and ten cents
which he had in his pocket at the time Of the
tragedy.

harvest. Throughout the Union, we estimate
the yield of Wheat a little below the average;
Grass about middling; Indian Corn (our great
staple) decidedly good. We believe there will
be many millions of bushels more of this grain
grown this year, than ever before, and the
same of edible Roots And it Is the prosper
ity of the Farmers-th the realization or the pros
peet of generous Harvests-which is to raise
the siege of our cities by General Stagnation,
and set us all on our feet again.
We are to have cheaper Food after harvest
that is inevitable Tens of thousands of stall
wart laborers have already been discharged
from suspended buildings, finished or untin-
ished railroads, grading streets, &c., to swell
the number who are cultivatng the SOIL
Thousands more will follow in their footsteps
before another spring. Canada is to pour in
her heavy crops of Grain upon us free ofduty /;
and while many farmers will hold on for the
great prices oflast winter, there are more who
owe debts that must be paid, and will have to
sell soon. Should Peace be made this year in
Europe, Wheat will fall to dollar bushel
at Rochester, or ten shilling here should the
War continue and extend, it may hold up to
a dollar and half at this port in December
Peace may carry up Cotton a trile, but it is
more likely to rule lower. The stock of old
grain and flour is questionably light, but no
more VIII be exported to CALIFORNIA; change
which will be felt There Is no fear that spec
ulators will monopolize the crop Of 1854 and
seek to hold it for eXorbitant prices; the
money for such an operation is not to be had.
Only the stubborness of the Autocrat, resist
ing the persevering entreaties Of the other
Great Powers that he will not constrain them
to fog him, can prevent a sensible cheap
ening of Food before winter sets inn. Y.

ready to personate Mr.. Thayer, and take the

PRINCE JOHN ADRoAD'-Some malicious
wag imposed upon a London journal the re-
port that John Van Buren, would attend the
great Anti-Slavery Convention at Manchester
and participate in the proceedings. The re-
port was contradicted the next morning on
the authority of Mr.. Van Buren, himself. The
Prince would be much more likely to go to
Virginia to make an ant-slavery speech than
he would to make one in England. He is
too much politician to say abroad even all
that he would say at home.
