: A GEORGIA HAIL STORM '.
- The following account of a hail storm
in Jasper county surpasses any thing of
the kind we have ever read. Those of
our readers who know the writer, need no
endorsement of his statements. Augusta
Sentinel.
Monticello, (Geo.) May 31, 1847.
Messrs. Editors : Speaking of hail
storms, i can tell you of one that passed
over a part of Jasper county on the eve
ning of Monday, the 19ih instant, that
was somewhat more of a storm than those
little evanescent affairs with which the
newspaper readers are surfeited. Were
you not well acquainted with me, I con
fess I should hesitate in my brief account,
for fear of not being believed. In the
neighborhood of Wise's Ferry, on the
Oemulgc, the storm was very fierce, but
it was severest about two or three miles
this side of the river. The scene must
have been terrific in the extreme ; the
hail fell as large as goose-eggs, and in
quantities incredible to relate. Large
banks of the stones yet lie in the corners
of the fences, notwithstanding the very
copious rains that have fallen since, and
the bright sun of twelve clear days. Our
boys -are yet enjoying ice drinks from
these unexhausted banks. It would be
difficult to find a single head of wheat on
any sized wheatfield in the immediate vi
cinity I am describing Flocks of goats
were killed, and whole stocks of hogs
nearly destroyed ; the horns of cows were
hruken off, and some persons severely in
jured. The forests are almost as leafless
as in mid winter, 3nd present a most
melancholy picture. Immense numbers
of poultry, birds, snakes, and fish were
destroyed. The orchards were stripped
of their entire covering, and the trees so
bruised as to leave no hope that they will
survive. I have seen post oak sapplings,
pines, and other trees, that were as com
pletely bruised from the root up as if they
had been struck, a thousand hard blows
with a heavy hammer, clearing the rough
bark and indenting the wood at every
blow. Some buzzards were destroyed
while ozi the wing, as is supposed. As
for corn, cotton, and the like, the fields
give scarcely the slightest indication of
having been planted. The houses ap
pear as if they had been assailed by an
army of Davids, and each man throwing
liis stone as if aimed at a giant. Such a
disaster as this was never before witnessed
"by the oldest inhabitant," that distin
guished personage so often referred to on
extraordinary occasions. I could till a
olutnn with details as "rich and rare" as
Xhose recounted, but I forbear to trespass
further nn your patience.
Amor.g tlic principal sufferers Irom this
storm in the neighborhood referred to,
are John M'Closkic, Jordan Pye, Major
Lane, Floyd Malone, Jordan Campion,
C C. Hairstort, and Ezekiel Fears, any
one of whom could give you a thrilling
account of the devastating scourge. Jas
per county is rather unpretending in most
things, W when it comes to hail storms
slip is"lh.ir." I have taken the precau
Mjj 'orvL'i to some of the injured, in the J
event of any incredulous reader desiring
a more definite and thoroughly-authenticated
aeeount.
I am yours, in haste,
JOSHUA HILL.
PROSPECT OF OUR OWN HAR
VEST. KROM THE SPRINGFIELD (MASS.) REPUBLI
CAN or june 3.
The papers from all quarters now bring
us encouraging and gratifying, accounts
of the itate'ol the growing crops of the
different kinds of gram, &c. On the
whole, (and we have paid particular at
tention to tho newspaper reports from the
South and West, as well as nearer home,)
we should judge that, so far as present
appearances indicate, the crop of the pres
ent season will be a very fair one in every
particular comparing favorably with those
of previous years. Besides, wo take it
that, beyond question, the produce of the
year in this country will exceed in a
mount that of any former season, unless
uuforeccen causes should greatly devas
tate the crops. A very greatly increased
extent of land has undoubtedly been put
under cultivation, and planted with grain,
since the close of the former harvest.
The high prices which produce of all de
scriptions, and especially wheat, 'corn,
and rye, has brought and is now bringing,
hare c.Ycilcd farmers every where to ex
tend their operations to the utmost limits
of their power. This is but a natural re
sult, and facts fully prove it. At the
South lanre amounts of land heretofore de
voted to tobacco and cotton will this year
be planted with corn, and much new land
will be brought under cultivation at the
West. It is evident then to us that, in
spite of the present drainage of the bread
stuffs of the country' to meet the foreign
demand, or tho future demands of that
character, we shall not endanger our own
safety, and that, with a good season here
and in Europe, we shall be able to meet
all the wants of other countries, besides
fully supplying those of our own people.
Prices may continue high for a while
longer. This it is evident will be the
case ; but we see no reason to doubt that
they have reached their highest point.
Speculation undoubtedly has had much to
do with pushing prices up to the present
degree, and it may possibly exercise a
still greater effect in that direction. But
this cannot last long. Matters will soon
rind their true level ; and, under the in
creased and increasing means of trans
portation, the great West will pour in, as
she is now doing in unprecedented , large
quantities from her immense resources,
sufficient to force prices to their legitimate
level.
PROSPECT OF THE HARVEST IN
EUROPE.
The Liverpool times of the 19th ulti
mo savs : "A fortnight ago the season was
unusually backward, and, coupled with
the existing scarcity of food, people be
came seriously alarmed about the future.
The feeling is now reversed hopn" has
banished despondency and, frolh present
appearances, every indication exists of an
early and prolilic yielding of the earth's
fruits. We have before us reports from
almost every district ofthe country, which
satisfy us that the improvement and pros
pect of a good harvest is almost universal.
The wheat crop is at present too early to
speak of, but we may say that no weather
could be more favorable for it than the
present. It will be observed that the
price of wheat and flour is still on the ad
vance, and there exists on the part of
many persons a great fear of scarcity, it
being impossible to estimate with any de
gree of certainty the stock in the hands
ofthe farmers. As regards the continent
it was stated in the Chamber of Peers on
the 10th instant, by the minister of Com
merce and Agriculture, that the prospects
of the next harvest were extremely prom
ising. The crops throughout Belgium
are said to promise an abundant harvest.
A correspondent of a London paper says:
"I have just traversed the whole of tho
'central and upper districts of the Penin
sula. I can affirm that, for the last twnn
ty years, never was the aspect of the
country or the operations of the farmer
in a state so promising. From Egypt
we learn that the corn harvest in both
Upper and middle Egypt had been got
in, and was most abundant. The Viceroy
estimates that there will be 4,300,000
hectolitres ol corn for exportation in July
at the rise ofthe waters ofthe Nile."
LATER FROM SANTA FE.
About a dozen of volunteers, discharged
from service in Col. Price's regiment at
Santa Fe, on account of ill health, have
arrived at St. Louis. They left Santa Fe
in detached parlies, the latest on the 2 1st
of April. Every thing was then in a
tranquil state. The natives of the coun
try were deprived ol the means of doing
mischief, even if they were so disposed,
having no arms upon which they could
rely, and no ammunition. The courts
for the trial of the rebels had closed, both
at Tons and Santa Fe, and the sanguinary
executions which had taken place unde'r
their adjudications were at an end. The
old man at Santa Fe, under sentence of
death for the part which he had played in
the drama of rebellion, was awaiiing the
decision ofthe President of the United
States in his case on a representation of
all the facts, ns contained in papers which
passed through this place some weeks
since.
Col. Price was in command at Santa
Fe, which has proved the graveyard for
many young and gallant men. Our in
formants state that nearly four hundred
persons, were buried there. . -..-.
No intelligence of a late date had been
received from Chihuahua nothing so late
as we have by the Mexican papers.
Ofthe number of Volunteers at Santa
F e, very few will enrol themselves for a
new term of service. St, Louii llepuh-
EROrd THE PETERSBURG VA. INTELLIGENCER.
"Federalists-" Whenever the Lo
cofoco party are in a strait and dont know
how to get out with whole bones, they
raise the cry of "Federalists" against
iheir opponents. So much is this their
practice, that the iteration and reiteration
of this talismanic word by the press of
that power-worshipping party as surely
indicates foul weather to them at the fall
of the barometer denotes it in the physical
world. .
The late Governor 'Barrour who in
his peculiar way, was the best anecdote
teller we ever knew used o tell of a
man in 1810, who having got "unco fou"
at the grog-shop, staggered to the vicinity
of a camp meeting, where he laid Iiimsel
down on the grass and went to sleep.
Having partially slept off the fumes of the
liquor, he was aroused by the sound o
loud speaking, and in going in the direc
tion ofthe noise, he found himself in the
nresence ol a lanre audience, who he
thought were listening to a stump speech.
The preacher for such he was was m
full swing, and in loud and fearful tones
proclaimed the dreadful sentence, "unless
vou repent vou will be damned. lo
which the drunken man replied, that's
d d fcihtral lie."
ICT'lt will puzzle President Polk, or
his defenders, to evade an answer, while
such questions as the following are con
tinually propounded. A southern paper
sa3's :
"The country would be glad to have
the Union answer one thing. Did the
President commit a blunder in letting San
ta Anna into Mexico, or did he really
mean to produce all the death and sufler
ing among our forces which have resulted
from sending him back ? One ofthe two
certainly must be true. Will some onu
ofthe President's aJvo:at s tell us ?
Friknds. Tho Philadelphia U. S
Gazette says : 'We understand that the
members ef the society of Friends be
longing to the Yearly Meeting held last
week in the Cherrv and Green street
houses, have contributed, in money and

that no one could doubt, fully establish
es this fact. For ihe sake of brevity we
select the following from thousand..
Isaac Piatt Esq., Editor of the Pough
keepsie Eagle, one of ihe most influen
tial Journals in the state of New York,
stales, under the authority of his own
name, lhat a young lady, a relative of
his, of very delicate constitution was at
tacked in February, 1842, with severe
cold, which immediately produced spit
ting of blood, cough, fever, and oilier
dangerous and alarming symptons
Through medical treatment and care she
partially recovered during the summer.
But on the return of winter she xvas at
tacked more violently than at first, she
became scarcely able to walk, and was
troubled with cough, chills, and fever
every day, and appeared to be going
rapidly with Consumption ; at this time,
when there was no sine of improvement,
Mr. Plait procured a bottle of WIS
TAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHER
RY, which she took, and it seemingly
restored her. She got a second, and be
fore it was half taken she was restored
to perfect health, which she has enjoyed
lo ihe present time, without the slight
est symptons of her former disease.
The following we hate just received
from Messrs. Fall, McCracken & Co.
agents for the sale of Wisiar's Balsam
ol Wild Cherry, at Lancaster. Ohio.
To the Public I feel it my duty as
an act of kindness lo the afflicted, to in
form them what Wisiar's Balsam of w ild
Cherry has done for my daughter.
There is many a parent who has given;
up a beloved daughter or son, as a prey
to lhat fell destroyer consumption, i'hey 1
have, as I have done, tried all the most
skilful and eminent physicians within
their knowledge, and all of ihe most
popular remedies thai seemed lo hold
