Heavy Tuunper.—On Sunday evening New Glasgow was visited by an exceedingly heavy thunderstorm. The lightning killed a cow belonging to Win. Bagnall, Esq. Other damage was done by it. THE appearance of a team of oxen on our public streets to-day attracted much atten- tion. They were yoked in a very heavy sloven, and guided by the stinging charms of a heavy birch stick in the hands of an ancient yeoman. Just received per Prince Edward our English Midsummer Millinery—a very nice assortment. Also a lot of Linen and Pique Costumes which, having been delayed, will be sold low J. & W. Beer. 3i—jy 12 On Sunday evening last the barn of My. Robert Ford, of New Glasgow Road, was struck by lightening. The straw that was in the barn took fire, but was extinguished before much damage was done. Mrs. Ford was in the barn at the time the lightening struck, and received such a shock that she remained insensible for hours. Bie CatcHes. — Wm.

The bereaved parents have the sympathies of the com- munity in their affliction. Mr. Sprague has left the management of the lectures, to be delivered on this and to-morrow evenings, in behalf of Centenary Church, in com- petent hands, and his absence will not, he| wishes us to say, interfere with them in any respect.—St. John Tel. 13th.

The com- mittee appointed by the society have spared no pains nor expense to make this the best picnic of the season. The programme of games and amusements is large and inter- esting, and will no doubt be carried through in a manner which will reflect much credit on the society. At ten o'clock a.m. the members will form in procession at St. Patrick’s Hall, where they will be joined by the St. Joseph’s T. A. Society, the Grand Division of Sons of Temperance and a number of temperance societies from the country districts in regalia. They will then march to the pleasant grounds of St. Dun- stan’s College, headed by the Rustico Brass Band, where they will, we hope, spend a most enjoyable time.

There is never much business done at this season of the year, but during the past week the Orange agitation has added to the lethargy in whole- sale and retail trades. A sap boating accident occurred at Halifax on Sunday last. As three young men, named William Townsend, son of Silas Townsend, and John Holloway, son of Thos. Holloway, and John Lomas, were pleasure sailing in the harbor, the boat upset, and Messrs. Townsend and Holloway were immediately drowned. Lomas was saved by holding on to the boat until rescued by the schooner Here, Lomas has since died from exhaust- ion. Dr. Macponatp writes to a London paper: —'‘*The heat is so intense that great care should be taken to prevent sunstroke. We have already had early warnings. If out- door laborers would put fern or cabbage leaves inside their hats, or wind bands of rushes, vetches, or green herbage of some sort around them, there would be no cases of sunstroke. By this means the heat is stunned through herbaceous substances, and is much less oppressive.” Ravaces or Dipurarerta.—The family of Philo Lyon, at Long Reach, King’s County, was visited with a sad afiliction last week by that terrible scourge, diphtheria. Within one week four children fell victims, begin- ning with the youngest and taking the next e'dest in turn.
