CHURCH STRUCK BY LIGHTNING -
A violent thunder storm passed over New
Jersey. At Jamesburg, near Amboy, the
Sabbath school of the Presbyterian Church
was holding its meeting in the afternoon,
when the fluid struck the building. 1t en-
tered the roof, making only a small hole,
and descended by the chandelier to the
centre of the church, where it exploded =
Quite a number of adults, as well as chill
dren, were Frustrated by it, and their
clothes burnt. Yet no fatal results follow
ed, although some hours, and even days,
elapsed before perfect restoration took
place. But the remarkable feature of it
remains to be told, and this is given by a
clergyman who received it from one present.
1t is stated that the ladies who wore brass
hoops in their dresses were uninjured but
the hoops themselves acre melted. The
electric fluid was thus diffused, and per-
haps lives saved, by this novel species of
conductor.
