The editor of the Gazette seems to be in favor of changing the name of this Institution to " THE bssar HOSPITAL, '- -"THE 011114 110MPITAL, " —or by some such designation. " A rose by any other name would smell as sweet ; " and the name of a charitable institution would perhaps hate no influence one way or the other cm its!usefulness.— The editor of the Gazette Wishes that the name of the donor of the ground! shoufd be incorpgratcd with the institution. and speaks of such a compli ment showing,on the part:of a community? proper sense of their appreciation of the gift.

Press. DREADFUL HAIIISTORM IN PEORIA. On: Saturday the 120. inst, OUT City-vy, visited by oneof;the most tremendous hailstorms, we presume;that the American .continent ever wit neased 'About' -half past thiee &Clock, a cloud, with nothing very extracirdinary'in its appedtance, we visible towards the northwest, and betokened rain A light, wind was blowing, and soon the rain be gan to fall. but in a few seconds it was followed by hailstones of the ordinary size; and on it hailed, the lumps growing: Urger and larger, and - falling in such vast quantities that many of our citizens became alarmed. The storm raged with the ut most violence for about fifteen or twenty minuses. After the rain' had subiided, we picked up a num ber of hailsTOnelt that .weighed four ounces—and . some Weighed 'Mere. In shape, some of them were neaity'rounil, cmd Others resembled fragments of ice that had become united in one lump, and measured from tan' to three and a half inches in 6,- 1 cower. Forty eight hours. afterwatds, hailstonß could be'picked up in.the uncovered cellars as large as a hullecl ; vvalnut. There is scarcely a house in this city but what was more or less damaged by the falling of these massive lumps of hail. There are many houses . in Which not one,whole pane of glass is left in the windows. In our office, there are twenty three win dows, containing in all 273 panes of glass, and out of this number, there are but 30 whole rxtnes of glass left I The roofs of many of the houses suffered much from the hailstones breaking into pieces the shingles. Every garden in the city and suburbs, that the storm visited, is entirely cot to pieces—t ops and leaves of the vegetables and Shrubbery having been torn from the main stems 11,!he fruir we fear is much injured—a number of peach. !plum and cherry trees were stripped of their leaves , and fruit. The great mass of the hail Seemed to have been concentrated over our beau -tiful city. for we can hear nothing about its rays. *es either up or down he river, and eery little from any other direction. If its effects in -the country were as bad as in the city, we fear the entire crops of wheat, corn &c. are ruined. When the hail began to fall in large balls, the scene on Water street was truly frightful. About one hundred horses, mules and oxen were all standing there, some hitched in the traces and others standing with their harness on feeding at the Wagons—and as by some concerted signal, the sheets became alive with frantic animals—some running with their harness dangling at their heels, and others plunging headlong in every direction to get clear of the pitiless storm. On they dashed through the streets, furious from the pain inflicted on their heads by the falling masses, and ran until many of them were completely fagged out. Some of the owners did endeavor to hold them, hut were dragged about at a fearful rate, and were finally, compelled to seek shelter, with their heads and hands bruised and Weeding. The lake presented a most magnificent sight.— When the hail with its "plunging tire," struck its bosom, the water would rise to the height of al out two or three feet in a conical form, and it present. ed the appearance of millions of pyramids of wa ter ravening the entire surface ix' the lake. We can form no estimate of the actual loss occasioned by this Swint, but we think we will not be going much beyond the mark when we say that 1,1*Z.000 wilt scarcely repair the damage dune to the build ings alone. At the commencement of the storm the house of I Jacob Ferrell, was•struck by lightning,—the elec Inc spark passed down the outside or the chimney to the projection of the mantle piece, where in split a shoe brush in two. passed off and struck n daughter of Mr. Farrell aged 7 years, breaking the! scalp, from thence it passed off to the side of the! house, and severed a piece from a stud of the liouse,! trona tlierira to the earth. The child remained senseless and did not speak or g,ise any signs of porn until :%lotalay morning; she remains still in a stupor. The noise created by the brill falling in the lake. the rattling of thousands of demolished windows, the general terror and roar all around, arid the strife and contusion amongst the horses. produced a din and thunder equal to the report of 1(10.00" 11111.81:.ettl. and the v:tiole scene was one ei most ter rific grandeur and sublime disconl ; and such as w e trust may ntser again visit any portion of the globe.

A TRAIN ATTACKED I PatL.a.e4ittik, .kui 24th, 10h. 50m. A. By the-arrival of the steamer' Massachusetts, at New Orleans, from Vera Cruz, on the 19th inst. ; we hati•e late, and very important intelligence from the Army, which we hasten' to lay before our readers. The vomito was attacking our troops at Vera 'Cruz, and the number of case ' s was materially- „ in creasing. The number of deaths was not given. Our advices state that a large train, consisting of one hundred and twenty five' wagons, and six hundred packed mules, conveying the large sum of two hundred and twenty live thousand dollars to the main army, had been attacked by a very hrge Guerilla band, near Vera Cruz, and forty of our wagons had been captured. They were fortunately, not among the number of those containing the money. Two hur.dred mules were also captured, which were laden with subsistence and stores for the Army. The train was escorted by eight hundred troops, and it is stated that thirty of them were killed in the en counter. This arrival brings us no late intelligence from General Scott; and there is much anxiety prevail ing on his account. When last heard froth he was on his way towards the City of Mexico, and it was generally believed that he was on the point of concluding a peace with the Government. All communication with Jalapa has been entire ly cut off, and the road leading from Vera Cruz was in consequence filled with bands of Guerillas and other robbers and murderers, who plundered and murdered every party passing upon it. Geit. Cadwallader was busy in making prepar ations for opening a communication with Jalapa, and to this end was organizing, as rapidly as pos sible, all the forces which could be spared from Vera Cruz. With these he would also be enabled materially to swell the ranks of the main army. The -reinforcements had been anxiously looked I for by Gems Scott and Worth; and were very much needed; as the enemy were making strong demonstrations of fighting at a fortified point, eight or nine miles from the Capital. It was believed! I that the whole number who would join Gen Scott,l under the command of Gen. Cadwallader, would amount to about MO. The Guerillas were daily becoming mom daring and desperate; and the most severe and summary measures mem considered indispensable, in order to prevent their depredations upon our country men, as well as upon the uncifiending Mexicans. They had .of late even ventured within the limits of Vera Cruz to commit their acts of robbery and inutile,.
