Rain and Hail AT Pittsbure.

PITTsBURG, Pa, June 18.-Shortly after 7
o'clock, this section was visited by one of the
heaviest rain and hail storms ever known in
this city. The hail came down as large as
eggs, ana the rain fell in torrents, filling the
streets and cellars. No damage more severe
than the breaking OF skylights is reported,
however Outside the city the storm partook
of the nature of cyclone.
Specials to the Dispatch and Commercial
Gazette state that through Washington and
other southwestern counties, houses and
barns were unroofed, trees aprooted and
cattle killed. Damage to railroads, from
washouts and land slides, and to telegraph
lines, is also great, but so far no loss of life
is reported The storm did not last an hour.
From the southwest. specials say the track
of the cyclone is from one hundred to four
hundred feet wide, and in many places
everything is swept as if by broom.

A LOST ART.

The Language of Courtship in the Good
Old Days,
Harper's Drawer for July.
Either the language of courtship has de-
plorably fallen off since the days of our
grandfathers, or our novelists have lost the
art of reporting it. There is an instructive
scene in THE Wild Irish Girl" romance
by Miss Owenson (afterward Lady Morgan)
which our grandmothers before their mar
rage, read with emotions proper in society
at the beginning of this century---a scene
that can proftably be studied:

signing.
ut is boudoirizing hour" said 1.
at is golden one for poetic heart" she
added.
"Or an enamored one" I returned. at is
the hour in which the soul best knows her
self; when every low-thoughted care is ex-
cluded and the pensive pleasures take pos
session of the dissolying heart,

storm as it passed through the city were up
rooted, and the scene presented this evening
is one OF great destruction. Eye witnesses
state that when it reached the bank of the
river it plunged into the water, lifting it up
about 100 feet. So far as learned no one was
injured. Telegraph wires were all blown
down, and much damage done. Considera-

veloped yesterday that the sarcopha-
gus is empty.
