HAIL STORM.
One ofthe most destructive hailstorm ever
witnessed in this section of country, pas
sed over a portion of Sycamore Township
on last Saturday. 1t first struck in the
northwest part Of the Township, and
passed in a south easterly direction, in
cludng an extent North snd South, the
whole space Of two and half miles. 1t
destroyed nearly everything comprehen-
ded within its range. Whole fields Of
corn were prostrated to the ground in
many cases the cars and even the stalks
being cut off, garden productions were
beaten to the ground, and entirely destroy
ed. Melons and large pumpkins were
battered open by the falling slugs of ice.
that seemed to loose all pretence to ordi-
nary hail, but descended as shower Of
ice, as variable in shape, as was the cakes
of the Egyptians, as described in Sears
Bible Biography. Some of our farmers
estimate their loss at 400 dollars, others
less. S.

arrived on the 8 o'clock, morning train
from Crestliue, and were received by {
host of our citizens, who had collected

home. The boys looked as il they hac
endured some hardships, but as a gener
al thing they seemed to us as if they were
in the enjoyment of a good degree oi
health. Their return among us made
glad the hearts of their friends, and for
their deeds of yalor won on the fields oi
"Monocacy Junction" and "Berryville, "

their country, that will forever keep alive
in after generations the name of the Ma
tional Guard Of Ohio. Some however
who went forth with them came not back,
Lindsey fell at Monocacy junction,
Cozier, PotFenberger and Osborn fell at
Berryville, whilst Rubens, and others
have returned manned for life, bearing
with them the memento of their loss III
devotion to the old flag of the Union.
The boys during their march had occa-
sion to pass and repass Frederick city,
and tired with the forced marches they
made, hungry and thirsty, they ever found
in the ladies of the Mountain city to whom
the applied a helping hand. Bread was
furnished them without money. and fair
hands assisted them in filing their can
teens with pure water. The boys from
Co. A, Of this village, say. they were
never treated better. by sny people: and
declare that the loyal ladies of Frederick,
are true to the cause of the Union, as
their deeds in ministering to their wants
on passing through their streets clearly
evihced.
1t is good to see the old familiar faces
of our Guarda, and we feel proud of them
and will ever honor them as WyandoL's
brave defenders Of the old flag, for 100
days.
