DEATH OF A YoUrH.-There are few
persons advanced in years who consider
their decease as an event which will short
.ly take place. An old gentleman, aged
only eightyJoar years, on being informed
of the death of an acquaintance at the adj
vahced age of minety.sir, answered: Il am
sorry to hear of his death, but / confess
am not much surprised. His constitution
was naturally weak, and he was habitually
careless of his health. I alUqys predicted
that he wouEd not be tongliVedf"

SINGULAR SrcRM.-A gentleman who ar
rived in. this city from Chillicothe on Fri
day evening, informs rs that as the stage
was passing from Greenfield to Hillsbor-
ough, In the neighborhood Of Petersburg,
they were overtaken ola suddenwith a tor
nado Of wind, rain and hail which came
with terrific violence. The hail stones
were very large aud striking the horses
they became FESTIVE and four of the pass
engers had to get out and hold them. Ina
few minutes the storm passed Q and the
coach proceeded onward, but had gone but
a short distance before it was again over
taken with the storm, the wind coming in
an eraet opposite direction, and the rain and
hail falling in even greater abundance than
before. The corn was FRUSTRATED and cut
into shreds. trees were blown down and
fences lifted up and throw across the road,
The quantity Of rain which fell was truly
astonishing, our informant says that it
seemed as If there was q river overhead
that had had the bottom knocked out. The
whole lasted about twenty minutes. A
gain they started, and on going a quarter
of a mile they entered upon the dry dusty
road where not a drop Of rain had fallen.
Men were workingin the fields making hay
who were wholly ignorant that any storm
had taken place so nigh to them.-Cfn.
