>yertiser gives distressing account of the mis-
thaps of lady who was caught, under full
Ssail, from home, by a violent storm of wind It
says, on Saturday afternoon, and while the
dust was circulating so thick that no one could
see more than the length of an eyelash in front,
a lady, dressed in the most elegant style, in
coming round one Of the corners, was lifted off
her feet by the force Of wind acting on the
great expanse of surface which she presented
to it. The wind unfortunately did not set her
down in the same position in which she was,
before being taken up, but turning her gently
on one side, it laid her endWise on the side
walk, where she commenced series of aston
ishing gyrations, rolling over and over on the
hoops of the skirts, and exhibiting species of
locomotion which is not yet generally appre-
clated, and which may come into fashion. with
high winds and large circlets Of light 1pateri-
slaa As the lady thus rolled over and over,
several persons were knocked down and pass
ed over BY the lady and the hoops, without
ever knowing that anything had bent them
Fortunately for the lady, the dust and the as
tonishment of the people out of doors permit
ted but few to witness this hsB method Of get
ting along in stiff breeze, and keeping up
full sail at che same time. As we came round
a corner, we found the lady wedged between
"a iamp-post and hydrant, aud Immediately
assisted her TO anuprfght instead. of a reoum-
beRt position.
