The conterminous portione of Collin and
Denton counties seem to be visited with an
un lue proportion of storms the present sea-
son. From Capt L. NJ. White, who has
just returned from a trip to some of the
western cour ties, we learn that furious
storm of wind, accompanied with some rain
and hail, passed over that section Of coun-
try last Saturday night, inaiciing serious
injury on the crops. Growing corn was
prostrated, and the blades were whipped
from the stalks by the fury of the blast;
shocks Of small grain were blown down.
and in many instances the sheaves we're
scattered over the prairies; trees were up
rooted or broken, fences leveled, and even
the bottom rails lifted from their places.
Our informant saw one honse which had
been partly unroofed. The effects Of the
storm were visible as far west ns Tarrant
county. How much farther il extended We
are not informed. II was felt here. the
wind blowing very hard, but the damage
done was inconsiderable.-NcKi Kinney Hc,-

of Gen. j. E. B. Stuart. He is EN- route

Gen. A. ?. Hill, to the front, by r narr +
and circuitous path. His force was tAcD
in the enemy S rear. Returning in n g.ti-
lOp, our men, supposing them to be Yank-
ees, fired, wounding the General in the left
arm, breaking the bones below and above
the elbow. One shot also passed through
his right hand. He threw up HIS right
hand sgnaliEing them to stop, as he did
