Lanna, and here and there a village peering from behind a dark !lend, and the people be .ow hallooing all arodird us ; and d heard a voice distinctly cry, " Charley, come down— come down—pcome down." We repeated these cloud scenes five or six - .lmes, going up and down, and I was al most led to believe that when we shall aiabge from mortality to immortality, it will be our happy destiny to soar through ...he realms of space, visiting, on spir mai wing, this globe and that globe ; for the good book tells us that, "in my Father's Louse there are many mansions," and I verily !elt, when I was away up above the clouds, - ..hat I was in the house of God—it was so solemnly grand and sublime. I shall dream of this all my lifetime. I can Low hardly realize it—it seems tome more tike the shadow of a vision—a trance of posi tive things. I don't think anybody could make such an adventure without becoming getter, and particu:arly grateful to the Crea -or for the privileges he has granted us. We landed safely one hour audten minutes after we left the earth, 9n the farm of Mr. J. Hoffman Hershey, about 9 miles northwest of :he city. Mr. John Herr invited us to his louse, where we took supper. LOUISA WISE LANCASTER, Sept. 20, 1869. A. Destructive Storm—Hain, Hail and Light- Wing—Number of Barns Burut The rain and thunder storm which passed ,over this county on Friday of last week, it seems, did much damage to property in some sections. Fences were swept away, barns struck by /lightning and destroyed and other damage done. But little or no injury was done in this :•ity, so far as we have been able to learn. Below we give such facts as have reached us In Marietta and vicinity the storm seems 'o have raged with great fury and destructive ness. It set in about 11 o'clock in the morn ing. The rain fell in torrents, accompanied by hail, thunder and lightning. The streets of the town were overflowed with water,and a number of persons were compelled to eave :heir houses and seek refuge elsewhere. Seve ral made narrow escapes with their lives. Bridges, fences, chicken-coops and hog-pens were floating about the streets of the town. The Pennsylvania Railroad track at the lower end of the town was completely submerged, and the noon passenger train, due at the Up per Station at 1247 p. m., ran off the track and was delayed several hours. At the height of the storm an alarm of fire was raised, which was found to be caused by the burning bf a barn at the lower end of the borough, be .enging to Jas McCormick, of Harrisburg, and occupied by Mr. George Hippie as tenant. The barn had been struck by lightning. Be fore assistance could be rendered, the barn and most of its contents were entirely destroy -4.d. A calf perished in the dames. The loss -s not known. The barn of Jaoob 'Huber, one and a half :niles northwest of Rohrerstown, in East flempfleld township, was struck by lightning during the storm and completely destroyed. The crop of wheat, threshed and laying on the floor, and all his hay and straw were burnt up. The h•rses and other stock, with the exception of three small pigs, were got out, but all the agricultural implements in the barn were lost. John Brickhart's barn, about one and a half miles west of Balungs, and the barn of Mr. Koontz, *ear Maytown, were also struck uy lightning during the storm and destroyed, 'jut the particulars, at this writing, have not reached us. The house and barn of Benj. Rutter, in Warwick-twp., one mile east of Litiz, were struck by lightning during the storm. The lightning struck the rod on the house, ran down to the ground, cut a hole through the foundation wall, ran along a copper pipe one 'uundred and fifty feet to a b,ydrsadie. ram, which it bursted, then ran along st,leagi pipe about twenty feet to box contwininewater, which it also bunted, and here the fluid pass ed away. Fortunately, no one *as in the house at the time, else loss of life might have resulted, as things were considerably shat tered. The lightning rod of the barn was also btruck and torn to pieces. Both rods were rendered useless. The storm seems to have exetaded south ward only some six or eight miles. In East and West Lampeter it was very destructive. Nine stacks of wheat belonging to John Hau ser, in West Lampeter township, were top pled over. Several cows belonging to Mrs. Barbara Kreider, in the same township, were killed by lightning. The roof of MM. Girvin's barn, in East Lampeter, was blown off. Fences were blown down, trees uprooted, and fields badly washed. The WNW. co crop was much injured by hail. In Manheim township a barn, owned by Samuel Groff, of this city, was struck by lightning. The elec tric fluid entered the upper end of a lightning rod down to the valley on the roof, where it split, one portion going down the rod and the other passing along the vallv. No damage was done, except knocking off some shingles. —Express. ixons : Rev. Bishop G. F. Babnson, for ten years pastor of the Moravian Church in Lancaster, died on the evening of the 11th inst., at his residence at Salem, N. C., aged 64. He bad just returned from a sojourn of several months in Europe. Robert Clark, of Drumore township, informs us that by careful measurement one of his potato rows, planted with the Harrison va riety, yielded a bushel to 24 feet. Allowing the rows to be three feet apart, this would give upwards of 600 bushels to the acre. Conrad Brick, the young man who was arrested for stealing spoons from Mrs. Meter- Icy, it has been aeoertained, was insane; his brother, who resides in Philadelphia. appear ed before the Mayor on Friday last, and tes tified that he had escaped from a lunatic asylum.
