DAneE By THE SroRM.-A tree in the
yard Of VIM. o. Shaw, near Uniontown, was
struck by lightning on Tuesday of last week,
and completely shivered. The tree was only
four feet from the dwelling. The dwelling
had "a window lights broken by the shock.
-Four bridges on the turnpike between Lit
tlestown and Gettysburg were washed from
their foundations. The bed of the pike is
badly washed in many places, and the fields
erably.
The Bachmans Valley road, between West.
minister and the mill, suffered by washing, and
in some places it was almost impossible. In
the neighborhood Of Mayberry, we learn that
the corn was cut seriously by hail and blown
down, fences damaged and roads washed.
Morgan's Run was SO high that il could not
be forded, and large amount Of fencing
along it was swept away.
