SCENE AT A TR1AL-On Tuesday afternoon,
during the progress of the storm, Squire Pohl-
mans Office, on Elm street, was the scene OF an
occurrence that will work on the superstitions
of some of our citizens, while others will deem
it warning from the Almighty. The crcum-
stances whre as follows
The case of John Kelly, charged with COM
hitting violence on a young German glr was IN
progress. The witnesses for the prosecution
had all been examined, and evidence OF most
DAMAGING nature adduced The defendant ex-
pressed a desire to testify in his own behalf;
but when allowed to do so did it with heslta-
ton. He began his testimony, and had spoken
but two words when every one was startled by
u flash of lightning and simultaneous terrific
thunder. The lightning struck tree lmmedl-
ately in front of the Office, looping off a large
limb. Kelly recoiled and dropped powerless to
the floor, murmuring, Il will not swear when
the very elements are against me. D." This little
incident threw every one into terrible state OF
excitement, in consequence ofwhich the trial
was postponed until the next afternoon. Canean-

MORE ROYALTY. All who have read The
Diary of an English Governess at the Court Of
Siam will find special interest in the informa-
ton, which will be of generalinterest to others,
that his Majesty the Supreme King OF Siam,
for the first time in his life, has left his king
dom under the entire ruling of Chow Phya
Sri-Surawongse, regent of SIAM for tour OF
reconnaissance to Singapore and Batavia. His
Majesty being highly intellectual; young man,
it is expected that after seeing the beauty OF
the English and Netherlands model settlements
he will cause great improvements, to be made
in miserable looking Bangkok, while merchants
seem to be of opinion that his Majesty's visit
abroad will tend very materially towards open
inc up more extensively the resources of the
country. Next year, in March, his Majesty
intends paying a visit to the City Of Palaces,
Calcutta, and after that proceed on to Europe
and America. His Majesty is an enlightened
ruler, who reads and speaks English, contribut-
es occasionally to an Auglo-Siamesle journal in
Bangkok, and subscribes regularly to semi
weekly New York journal.
