DAMAGE By LIGHTNING Yesterday, during
the heavy storm Of wind that visited this city,
the new Presbyterian church in the First
Ward, on /, between TWenty-frst and Twenty
second streets, was struck by lightning and
seriously injured. The square tower, which
was In progress OF erection, and which had
reached TO about thirty feet above the roof
was nearly all thrown down, the bricks falling
upon the roof, breaking through a section Of
II, and penetrating 10 the basement. The
loss will probably amount 10 about 81 900 or
81, 200. We are informed that just previous
10 this occurrence the workmen had descended
TO the roof IN the tower, and were there at
the time; but fortunately none Of them were
hurt. We also learn that another house in
the FIRST Ward was slightly damaged by the
lightning. The Metropolitan House, near
tie steamboat wharf, was also struck, and
SINE bricks torn from the walls. A number
Of persons sitting In and about the house were
stunned.

Mr.. W. HENRY PALMER's first half-yearly
examination of piano forte classes took place
Wednesday night at Carusis Saloon and was
eminently successful. Too muah praise can
hardly be awarded to Mr.. Palmer for his
novel and effective mode of instruction. We
must not particularize individual perfOrman-
ces of the yOuag ladies, where all was done so
well; We may say generally, however, that
the accuracy and precision with which their
