Thunder Storm.

The late thunder storm which visited this sec
ton of the country, although not very severe did
some considerable damage in this county as
well as in the upper part of Baltimore county We
learn that Mr.. Parrish living in Baltimore

mule and three horses killed, and that u man,
whose name we did not learn, was killed about

On the Baltimore and IIavrc de Grace turn
pike, number of telegraph poles suffered from
the effects of the lightning. Edward i. Johns,
living On the same road, about mile and a
quarter from Abingdon, lost one shock of wheat
during the afternoon. His wheat had been cut
and shocked in the field, and during the storm
one of the shocks was struck by lightning and
consumed, without injury to the balance of the
wheat in the field Although the lightning
seemed to strike in an unusual nuraber of places,
the storm was by no means severe. Both light
ming and thunder were dull and at long inter-
walls, and the storm of short duration. The
rain was preceded by high wind, but it only
lasted for a few minutes, and did no damage to
the growing crops that we have heard Of
