Destructive Hail-storm.
The Charlotte Bulletin contains accounts of
aHail-Storm on Tuesday of last week, which
ravaged parts of Mecklenburg, Lincoln and ad-
jacent counties; being from one to four miles
wide, and extending Northeast and Southwest
about $50 miles. A. gentleman informed the
Bulletin that he gathered pieces some two hours
after they fell, eight inches in circumference.-
We heard that the largest pieces on falling
measured nine inches in diameter. The crops
embraced in the scope Of country, traversed by
the storm, are said to be ruined completely.
Mrs. Ewart's story.
"Ellen Campbell" increases in interest. With
this issue, the cloud not bigger than mans
hand has become sublime thunder. storm surg
ing up the dark sky. Every reader will admit
that her approach to the battle, itself, is grand
thing. All the terror, desolation, riot and fiery
patriotism of the time ore depicted with "the
pen of ready writer."- We think. and hope
that none can read this story without, feeling
their hate of wrong and oppression, and their
love of liberty, enkindled anew. 1t is due to
Mrs. EwARr that this much be said of her story.
It is proud and patriotic effort; and we only
wish it may be appreciated and influential accor-
ding to its merit.
