GREAT TORNADO IN ILLINOIS.

A very remarkable tornado occurred in
Mason county, Illinois, about two weeks
ago. The first indication was dark cloud
gathering near the earth about six miles
west of the city, but ere. long it assumed
the shape of a huge boat, having three
distinct smoke-stacks or columns extending
upwards and connected with the clouds
The wonderful phenomenon was fully
charged with electricity, and from it col.
umns of sparks were constantly issuing
and making a noise and cracking similar
to the regular firing ofa thousand muskets.
Although the rotary motion of this fearful
apparation was such as to tear up by the
roots all vegetation that lay in its path, its
progressive motion was not more than FIVE
miles an hour, and was watched with fear
ful anxiety by the terror-stricken inhabit-
ants. Its path was from twenty to eighty
feet in width and about three miles in
length, aud upon this space nothing was
left alive Hedging was burnt to crisp;
