    A Tremendous Storm.
The storm of Friday week, it appears was not
confined to this locality. In New York it was ter
rific, as we - learn from the Herald of the 2d inst. ,
from which we make the following extract. That
paper says:
Yesterday afternoon, between five and six o'clock,
our city was visited by one of the most tremendous .
hail storms that we ever remember to have seeti.
.The wind, that during the early part of the day had
been from the northeast, suddenly veered round to
the northwest,' and then again changed to the earit; -
bringing with it a heavy thunder storm.. The most
peculiar phenomenon was the sudden hurricane,
and the storm, not of hail, for that would be too
unmeaning a term to describe it by, but of pieces
of ice, which came clattering down upon the roofs
of the houses like a shower of brickbats. Extra
ordinary as it may appear, this is the nearest re
semblance that can be given to the noise that the
storm produced; but singular enough, this phenom
enon was very local, not extending over the whole
city, for in some parts the fall of hail had become
modified into rain, probably having melted in its
passage to the earth.
In order that our readers may not suspect us of
exaggeration, we have appended two instances of
what this hail storm was:
The ship yard of Mr. Thomas Collyer, at the
Dry Dock, was covered with irregularly shaped
pieces of ice, or large clusters of hailstones. Sev
eral of them were measured, one of which was 6+
inches in circumference, another 7 inches, and a
third measured 3 inches long and 2 inches thick.
The inhabitants of a house in Waverley Place
were startled by a solid body falling in the front
yard; and on proceeding there found a number of
pieces of ice, which appeared to have been original
ly one piece broken by the tall. When together
they would weigh about two pounds. The garden
at the back of the house had also a large number
of pieces of ice scattered over it, and a skylight at
the top of the house was smashed by the hailstones.
The noise of the lalling hail on the Crystal Pal
ace was tremendous--the dome acting an an im
mense drum.
During the storm a most disastrous accident oc
curred up town, by which three persons lost their
lives and seven others were severely injured, sonic
of whom it is expected will not recover. The
scene of the accident was in Forty-third street, be
tween Fifth and Sixth avenues, at a newly erected
frame building opposite Latting's Observatory,
which belongs to Dr. S.. P. Townsend, and was not
entirely completed. It is also opposite the Crystal
Palace. During the storm this building, which
was two stories high, and roofed in, was overturned
instantaneously, by the hurricane that blew about
5 o'clock, and levelled in a moment to the ground.
At the time that the accident occurred there were
six men employed on the ground floor in plastering
the walls, thiree of them as plasterers, one of whom
was the boss, named Wm. McCracken, and who
was killed, with two others. There were three
other laborers on this flour. On the upper floor
were other workmen employed in fitting the pipes
end other similar work, the building being intended,
we believe, for a saloon, and in addition to the`ge
there was a large number 61 people who had sought
temporary shelter when the storm came on. So
sudden was the accident that no time was given for
escape, the whole building being prostrated without
even the , shadow of a warning.
THE BALLOON ANCENS/ON.-A tremendous crowd
assembled on the afternoon of the Fourth of July,
in Bayardstown, to witness Professor Wise's balloon
ascension, and the hills, both in Allegheny and Pitts
burg, were crowded with spectators. When the
hour arrived, it was found that the balloon did not
contain sufficient gas, and there were is materials
on hand to generate more. Professor W., however
cut ofF the car, ballast, and grappling irons, and
prepared to ascend, standing in the rope at the bot,
torn of the net work. The balloon rose a few feet
only; when•it struck the fence, and the ropes catch
ing there, it fell across it, tearing it considerably.—
The gas was escaping rapidly, yet still Mr. Wise
insisted on going up, so chagrined was he at the
'failure, but a number of the bystanders interfered
and prevented him.
The large assembly, inside the enclosure, became
very much excited, and called for Mr. Kinney, who
had disappeared. Professor Wise mounted one of
the benches, and stated that the failure was una
voidable on his part; that he received two hundred
dollars from Mr. Kinney for making the ascension,
and that the latter was to have furnished him with
sufficient materials for the generation of gas. This
he had not done, and hence the unfortunate position
in which he found himself.
Some of the persons present appeared to wish to
destroy the balloon, but desisted on being told by
Professor Wise that it was his own personal prop
erty. After some time, the crowd dispersed in a
very bad humor, besides having lost both time and
money. The fire works were not sent off in the
evening, according to promise.
Yesterday, Filth street, at Reinemaii's jewelry
establishment, where most of the rickets' had been
sold, was crotvded by those holding tickets who
came to demand their money back,
or their prizes,
according to the advertisement. A few, a very tew,
of the latter were handed over, but those present
Kern by 'no means satisfied, declaring that they had
been imposed on. One of their number was at
length arrested, and taken to the watch house on a
charge of using threatening language, and in the
afternoon, such was the crowd, and so great the
excitement, that Mr. Reinman was com,.elled to
close his establishment.—Pittsburg Journal.

A BISHOP'S PAY AND PERQUISITES.—The Bish
op of Durham is in embarraced circumstances,
poor man. His income having been reduced to
about $40,000 per annum, (it was formerly about
$120,000,) he finds himself ill a pitiable state of
destitution,and has applied to the ecclesiastical com
missioners for an additional $5,000 a year or so to
pay his "gamekeepers " and " watch s on the
moors," and keep his lawns—not the law he wears
but the lawns around his palace—in a le pie I
or
der. The commissioners decline to make the extra
allowance, the more especially as the worthy "Lord
Spiritual " has already overdrawn his account some
$350,000 since Ills salary was, cut down ; or rather
has retained that amount instead of paying it over
like an honest prelate. In the diocess of Durham
there are dozens of poor curates with wives and
families to support, who do not receive £5O ster
ling per annum ; and yet the Bishop, in his sche
dule of extras, puts down the annual wages of oae
gamekeeper at £lOl Gd. and of another at £5B Gs.
lid. Saving his lordship's game, therelore, is con
sidered a more valuable and important service than
saving the souls of his lordship's flock. The esti
mation in which his lordship holds carnal luxuries
as compared with things spiritual is also manifest
ed in another part of his ".little bill." He puts
down the expenses of his parks at £lOO, but mod
estly charges only £l5 for those of his chapel!—
That blessed institution known as the " Church of
England," is based upon a system of monstrous in
equalities. If the piety and good works of the hum
ble clergy did not set off th ungodly rapacity of
its hierarchs, it would be in peril of the fate of So
dom and Gomorrah.
V" A day or two since some thirty or more
aborigines of the Onondago tribe, consisting of In
dians, squaws, and papooses, having heard in some
way, of the monument of Logan, in the Fort Hill
Cemetry, Auburn, N. Y. went to that plaCe to sat
isfy their curiosity, and visited the grounds to see
the monument erected by the pale faces to the
memory of an Indian Chief. They stayed around
the towering pile for en hour or more. They ga
zed with their stoic looks and unmoved countenane
on that token to the memory of one of their kind,
and, undoubtedly, secretly felt a national pride that
the Great Spirit had prompted the present genera.
tion of pale faces to an act, cornmemorgitive of an
Indian brave, whose name is identified with alio.
riginal greatness.

Decisions of the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court, at Harrisburg, has conclud
ed its term, after disposing of all the cases on. the
list, ninety in number.
The next term of the Court commenced on the
second Monday of July, (yesterday) at Sunbury ;
and the important railroad cases will be heard at
Philadelphia, on the 25th of July. The following
are some of the decisions of the Court :
Rowland vs. Goldsmith.—Berks.—Woodward, J.
A judgment subsequent to the Fourth of July, 1849,
but founded on a debt contracted before that date,
(the three hundred dollar law,) will lake the goods
of the defendant, without the exemption provided
for by that act, and the defendant in the execution
cannot sustain a claim to the goods or proceeds;
but a landlord, for rent due subsequent to that date,
cannot hold in opposition to the judgment-creditor
or the debtor, for he could not distrain upon such
goods. Reversed.
Lancaster Counly Bank vs. Alblighl.—Lowrie, J.
1. If a creditor, knowing that his debtor is in fail
ing circumstances, gets from him, for part of his
claim.a mortgage substantially covering all his
property, and then induces the debtor to obtain
the endorsement of another person, for another part
without revealing the fact of the mortgage, this is
such a fraud upon the endorser as will discharge
him from all liability.
2. The Court is not bound to take down testimo
ny, nor remember it. And when the Court is ask
ed to say that there is no evidence on a particular
point, it is not an error to say :—We do not re
member, let the jury decide.' Affirmed.
Hoch's Appeal.—Berks.--Knox J. An executor
cannot retain for a debt due to himself, which was
barred by the statute of limitations, in the lifetime
of his testator. A legatee or other person interest
ed in an estate, has a clear right 'to interpose the
statue against a debt claimed from the state,
thoughthe executer should refuse to plead it. fie
has the same right, where the demand is made by
the executor himself. The statute destroys the orig
inal debt, leaving only a moral consideration upon
which to found a new promise; and which, in all
cases, should be the basis of the action. Reversed.
Ennea et al vs. Brown —Berks.—Woodward J.
Where a daughter derives an estate from her father,
the 9th sec. of the act of Bth April, 1833, excludes
the mother of the estate, because, although capable
of being the heir of her daughter, she is not of the
blood of her husband from whom thg estate descend
ed to the daughter. The smallest quantity of com
mon blood with the ancestor from whom the es
tate descended, is sufficient to qualify heirs of the
intestate to take. In nieces-there is no lack of in
heritable blood. Affirmed.
Wartz vs. May.—Bedlord.—Woodward J. It is
always competent for a party to show that a wit
ness called to testify against him, has related the
facts to which he testifies, differently on former oc
casions, whether under oath or not. A witness
cannot be contradicted as tr. what he swore oa a
form& trio!, unless he is cross-examined as to his,
previous testimony. Evidence as to the general
character of witnesses is not admissible. until their
general character is assailed. The law presumes
the witness's character to be good until it be im
peached directly. Affirmed.
High's Appeal,—Berks.—Lewis J. Au advance
ment is an irrevocable gift by a perent to a child,
on account of such child's share of the parent's es
tate. Where a lather on advancing a sum of mon
ey to a son takes a bond for its repayment with or
without interest, it tr debt and not an advancement.
A brief statement of the nature and amount of his
estate (including under the term " advance " the to
tal amount of the debts against an advancement to
his children,) made on a small, loose slip of paper
found among his papers after his death, does not
amount to a release of his bonds against his chil
dren, or convert them into advancements. Affirmed.

HALIFAX, July 6.—The Royal Mail Steamship
Arneriea, Capt. Long, from Liverpool, on Saturday,
June 25th, arrived at this port en route for Boston
at an early hour this forenoon.
From the officers of the America we learn that
the Royal Mail steamship Arabia, Capt. Judkins,
from New York on Wednesday June 15th, at 12.30
P. M. arrived at Liverpool at 10 o'clock A. M. on
Saturday, June 25th, thus accomplishing the pas
sage
insiae of ten days.
Under the influence of more peaceful advices
from the Continent, the Cotton Market had' rallied,
and the sales of the week foot up 57,000 bales at
lull, and in some cases, at slightlrincreased prices.
A succession of several daps of very fine weather
had sensibly affected the breadstuff markets, and
the transactions going forward were very limited, at
reduced prices.
The general features of the provision market
were essentially the same as at the date of our pre
vious advices.
The political news from the continent is not of
a decisive character in regard to the difficulties be
tween Russia and Turkey; but all appearances are
favorable to a continuance of peace. The Porte
formally rejected the Czar's last.ultimatum, on the
16th of June
Further Foreign News.
The steamship America arrived at Boston, on
Thursday evening, at seven o'clock. The follow.
ing is a despatch from Paris, dated evening of the
23d ult :
"The Russian Minister, M. de KisslefF, had an
interview, yesterday, with the Emperor, when his
Majesty is reported to have said, 'Monsieur l'Am
bassadeur, tell your sovereign that I do not seek
for war, but if veer begins, I shall not be the first
to return the sword to the scabbard.* This obser
vation proves that the Emperor fully understands
the meaning of Count de Nesselrode's note to be un
friendly -towards France, and may serve to confirm
the correctness of the view taken here by those
who look on the Russian note as having raised a
fresh danger in the provocation it throws at the
French Emperor, who, however desirous he may
be of peace, it is not without motives for taking up
the gauntlet, should it.be rashly flung down."
Accounts from Constantinople, of the 10th June,
state that on the previous day June 9th, Redschid
Pasha, the minister for foreign aflairs, had received
a letter from Count Nesselrode, the prime minister
of Russia, in which the Sultan is expressly inform
ed, "that it is written for the purpose of giving him
the opportunity once more, of accepting the last ul
tiniatum of Prince Menschikoff, and in case he
should not do so ' that the Russian army would cross
the frontier within a few weeks, (dans quelques sent
aiues,) in order to obtain by force, but without any
declaration of war, what the Porte would not yield
spontaneously." We are now enabled to add to
the above intelligence that, up to and after its re
ceipt at Constantinople, the Government of the Sul
tan remained firm in their resolution not to accept
the terms so insolently dictated by , Russia; that the
Divan is supported in this resolve by the cordial
and united support of the representatives of Great
Britain, France, Austria and Prussia; and that there
is every appearance that the Porte will not yield.

PUBLIC SALE.—Land Speculators give this
your attention—no better farm in the market!—
The subscribers offer for sale one of the most valu
able Farms in Franklin county, Pennsylvania, on
Thursday the 15th day of September, 1853.
The Farm is situated in Antrim twp., on the pub
lic road leading from Greencastle to Williamsport,
Maryland; about four miles South of Greencastle,
seven miles from Hagerstown and ten miles from
Williamsport. The Franklin Railroad passes with
in hall a mile of the place ; and the Turnpike Road
from Williamsport to the Maryland line terminates
within half a mile of the Mansion house—thus pre
senting the greatest facilities for transportation of
produce, by direct lines of communication to either
the Baltimore or Philadelphia Market.
This Farm contains Two Hundred and Six Acres,
more or lees, of first r ate Limestone Land in the
highest state of cultivation, about thirty-five Acres
of which are in timber

There is also on this property a large Orchard of
choice grafted fruit trees.
The subscribers feel justified in pronouncing this
as one of the most productive Farms in this section
of the country. There is not one acre of broken
land on the place--and the crops which it annually
turns off has given it a deserved reputation as ono
of the Model Farms of Franklin county.

are—

rmportant Caution to the Deaf.—
Doctor Hartley, Aurist, 51 Sansom Street, Phil
adelphia, the only institution in America exclusive
ly and successfully devoted to the treatment of our
diseases, and the only acknowledged Aurist in the
United States, generously offers to attend all persons
suffering Irom affections of the ear, without charge
until cured, thereby 'proving his success unequalled
and protecting the deaf from being swindled by
paying self-styled Aurists exorbitant fees in ad
vance, and the infliction of yet more serious evil,
by permitting the application of dangerous reme
dies inexperienced and unskillful hands.
Dr. H. may here state that he has no connection
whatever with any persons advertising to cure deaf
ness. Neither has he given permission for the pub
lication of a " certificate, " purporting to emanate
from him, and cannot, herefore, be responsible
for any alarming consequences resulting from rash
ness and desperation. The loss of money.may not
be material to some persons, l but the deprivation of
one of the most important of the senses, ought to
be regarded and treated with more than ordinary
solicitude.
The number and importance of the demands on
the attention of Dr. Hartley, render it impossible
for him to name the exact day of his arrival in this
city. Due notice will be given.

Silver's Plastic Paints, Cheap.
filtrable and Protective Weather and Fire
Proof. This Paint will stand any climate, without
crack or blister hardens by exposure, thus makingin
time an enamel of stone, protecting wood from de
cay, and Iron and other metals from runt_ and cor
rosion.
The Paint differs from the so-called Mineral
Paints of the day, which are princip,lly Ochres and
Clays colored, and are entirely worthless.
Silver's Plastic Paints are purely Metalic, con
taining no Alumin or Clay.
They are levigated finely; mix readily with Lin
seed Oil, (without the trouble of grinding.) Aid How
under the brush as freely as the best White Lead.
These Paints excel all others : in body or cover
ing. properties, one pound of which will cover ;,s
much surface, as two pounds of White Lead.
There are four natural colors, viz : Black or
Slate, Biown, Olive and Chocolate.
Directions.—This Paint flows readily under the
brush and its covering property is increased by
using it mixed as thickly as possible with pure Lin
seed Oil; as the Paint is the lasting or protecting
body and the Oil simply the medium or agent in
spreading it.

Dear Sir: We have ulind your Plastic

give it a preference over all others we have tried

, Dear Sir : You ask me for my opinion of ,4 Sil
ver's Mineral Paints," which you have put on my
Machine Shop and Planing Mill. I give you with
pleasure my full and hearty recommendation of it
as a preventive of Fire communicating from Chim
ntys, or from adjoining buildings. The Paint which
ylni put on my roofs, has now become as hard as
slate, and I feel as-secure from Fire, in this direc
tion, a, is possible. A few weeks alter the roots
had been painted, I made an experiment on two or
three shingles by placing them in the furnace under
the boilers; the result was, that the portion uncov
ered was entirly - minsumed, while the painted, part
was apparently sound, though upon examination
the wood was found to be charred; the Paint how
ever was firm and but little blistered. I consider
this as severe a test as your Paint can be put to,
and under the circumstances I do not hesitate to
commend it as an invaluable preventive against
Fire. Reepentfully &c.

Memorials of Lancaster county;
ITJL Historical and Biographical, Statistical and
Incidental,. by J. M. Willis Geist. Illustrated.
Having engaged to write a new History of Lan
caster county, on an original plan, as indicated in
the title above given, the undersigned adopts this
plan of calling the attention of his fellow citizens
to the interest and importance of such an underta
king, with a view to their aid in collecting materi
als for the same.
It will be apparent to any one that a complete
book, covering the ground contemplated in the ti
tle, will be an important contribution to the library
of every citizen. As our title implies, it wili be
something more than a mere history—A book of
Memorials of the past, treasured up the present
and the future—embracing
I. litsronicat—An authentic narrative of local
events in the order in which they happened, with
comprehensive and impartial reflections on their
causes and effects, as revealed in the facts related.
11. BIOGRAPHICAL—The history of the life and
character of our most prominent and useful citizens
—many of them the home-bred heroes of unwrit
ten history-Arom the first settlement of the county
up to the present time.
111. Smaits•mcm.—A collection of interesting
facts, systematically.arranges respecting the State
of Society, the condition of die People, their Do,
mestic Economy, Arts, Property, and Political
Strength, in the past and present.
IV. IrranENTAL—This division will embrace
such matter of local interest as may not be consid
ered essential to any of the other divisions of the
work, but which have been invested by circum
stances of sufficient importance to claim a subordi
nate place in the Memorials.
The Memorials will be handsomely illustrated
with appropriate embellishments, among which
we may name full-page panoramic and perspective
views of the city of Lancaster, and Boroughs and
principal Villages, with their picturesque land
scapes; the Public Buildings, including the old
Court Houses and Jails, with an outline plan of the
town of Lancaster, and a map of the surrounding
country in 1730, from the original copy in the Ar
chives of the State ; also, a complete map of the
county at the present time. In addition to the
above, each biographical sketch will be, so as tar
as practicable, illustrated with a portrait. -
All persons in possession of interesting or curi
ous Facts and Documents, or any information
which might be of use to the author in writing out
the Memorials on the plan laid down, will confer
a special favor by opening a correspondence with
the undersigned. Additional particulars relating
to the time and place of birth, the early history and
family connections of ROBERT ForroN, and other
prominent natives of the county, are especially so
licited. J. M. WILLIS GEIST,

suffer from this trouble when they find it can be so
readily cured. Persons afflicted with a seated
cough, which breaks them of their rest at night,
will find, by taking the Cherry Pectoral on going to
bed, they may be sure of sound, unbroken sleep,
and consequently refreshing rest. Great relief from
suffering, and an ultimate cure, is afforded to thous
ands who are thus afflicted, by this invaluable rem
eFrd.
y om its agreeable effect in these cases, many find
themselves unwilling to forego its use when the
necessity for it ceased.
From two eminent Pyhysicians in
FAYETTEVILLE, TENN., April 16th, 1851.
Sir:—We have given your Cherry Pectoral an
extensive trial 'in our practice, and find it to surpass
every other remedy we have for curing affections of
the respiratory organs:
DRS. DIEMER & HAMPTON.
To singers and public speakers this remedy is
invaluable, as by its action on the throat and lungs,
when taken in small quantities '
it removes al
hoarseness in a few hours, and wonderfully in
creases the power and flexibility of the voice.
Asthma is generally much relieved, and often
wholly cured by Cherry Pectoral. But there are
some cases so obstinate as to yield entirely to no
medicine. Cherry Pectoral will cure them, if they
can be cured.
Bronchitis, or irritation of tho throat and upper
portion of the lungs my be cured by taking Cherry
Pectoral in small and frequent doses. The uncom
fortable oppression is soon relieved.
Rev. Dr. LANSING, of BROOKLYN, NEW Yoax,
states :--c , I have seen the :Cherry Pectoral cure
such cases of Asthma and Brnochitis as loads me
to believed it can rarely fail to cure those diseases."
For Croup. Give an emetic of antimony, to be
followed by large and frequent doses of the Sherry
Pectoral, until it subdues the disease. If taken in
season, it will not fail to cure.
Whooping cough may be broken up and soon
cured by the use of Cherry Pectoral.
The influenza is speedily removed by this rem
edy. Numerous instances have been noticed where
whole families were protected from any serious
consequences, while their neighbors, without the
Cherry Pectoral, were suffering from the disease.
SALEM, Ohio, June 11th, 1651.
Dr. J. C. Ayer :—I write to inform you of the
truly remarkable effects of your Cherry Pectoral in
this place, and in my own family. One of my
daughters was completely cured in three days of a
dreadful Whooping Cough, by taking it. Dr.
Means, one of our very best physicians freely states
that he considers it the best remedy we have for
pulmonary diseases, and that he has cured more
cases of Croup with it than any other medicine he
ever administered.
Our clergyman of the Baptist Church says that
during the run of Influenza here this seasons, he
has seen cures from your medicine ho could
scarcely have believed without seeing.
Yours respectfully, J. D. SINCLAIR,
Deputy Postmaster,
From the distinguished Professor of Chemistry
and ;el ateria Medics, Bowdoin College. I have
found the Cherry Pectoral, as its ingredients show,
a powerful remedy for colds, and coughs, and pul
monary diseases.
PARKER CLEVELAND, M. D.
linurrswicx, Me., Feb. 5, 1947.
Dr. VALENTINE Morr, the widely celebrated
Professor of Surgery in the Medical College, New
York City, says:—" It gives me pleasure to cer
tify the value and efficacy of bAyre's Cherry Pec
toral,' which I consider peculiarly adapted to cure
diseases of the Throat and Lungs."
Cures of severe diseases upon the Lungs have
been effected by C.berry Pectoral in such extreme
case as warrant the belief that a remedy has at
length been found that can be depended on to cure
the Coughs, Colds and Consumptions winch carry
from our midst thousands every year. It is indeed
a medicine to which the afflicted can look with
confidence for relief, and they should not• fail to
avail themselves of it.
