The gale appears to have been set-'ei'ely felt
at St. Kitts, St. hlartiirs,Doininica, and Mar-

‘more dreadful than any mentioned in the
annals of the islantl. Furious tides. earth-

to a gcirtlerrian of Boston. .
“In October last, a iriemoratidiim was

Providentiat Visitat-ions.—In no season do
we recollect to have heard of so many disas-
rers by lightning as the present. Altnost every
-nail brings intelligence ofthe destruction or“
.oinc building, or the death of somepcrson,
occasioned by the electric._f1uid., In the last
(‘L Y. Spectatorwe find an account of four-
eeti occurrences of this nature which have
aken place in various parts of the country
ruring the present month, and which resulted
in the death of 5 or 6 individuals, they-severe
injury of some others, and the destruction of
rrruch property.
It is stated in evidence ofthe good “effects

that the representation of that state in the

./In Irish Town»-l\lr. Carter,-editor ofthe
N. Y. Statesman, whose depariure from New
Yprk for Europe we announced a few week:
since, was in Ireland at the date of his last
letters, nmking observations on the country,
state ofsociety.8:c. From the description he
gives oftlre town of Kiiisale we should think
that piace must be one of the most romantic
lll the world. It stands at the head of the
harbor, within a short distance ofthe sea, and
is built upon an ‘aclivity so steep that the roofs
oftlre houses on one street are oti a litre with
the haseuient ofthose above. The heights
are planted with trees, and many oftlre hous-
es lrave gardens in frotit, presenting a pictiir
esqiie view from the basin, which spreads be-
fore the toivri aritl is covered with boats and
vessels. Ships of war may ride to the very
doors ofsomc ofthe houses ; and the 0IIIC€l‘.*-
on deck sometitiies converse with the ladies
at the Wl11(lt=\VS oftlieir drawing rooms.’
Plrc-nomenort..'——0ti his passage otrt, imme-
diately after a severe thunder storm, in the"
eve-tring, Mr. Carter was called by one of the
sailors to witness a curious plipuonrenou. It
was a butt o_f_fire, which had stationed itselfat
the top ofthe maiirmast," and einitted a light
so mticli resembling that of a lamp that he at
first suspected some one had been playing off
a quiz by sending up a light, but he soon as-
certained the reality of the plrenoirienon.-—
The substance of which this ball is composed
has been found, tipoii examination, to be a
mass ofjelly, apparently composed of qiiarl or
auimalcules, exactly similar to those produc-
ing the pliosplioicseiicc oftlie ocean.
Insu-rancc.-—Tlre distressing accountswhicli
daily reach us nflosses and disasters by fire
are calculated fort-icly to impress upon the
mind the duty of providing, as far as possible
against such losses and the calamities incident’
to them. The question “ how can this be
done ?” is happily one of most easy soluliotr.
Go to an Insurance office, and by paying a
uiere pittance all losses are at once providerf
for, the mind is rendered easy and peaceful 9
and the individual has an assurance that the
property he possesses to-day for his own com-
iort and that ofliis family and friends he may
have to-morrow. Witliorit this insurance it
is needless to say that no sticli assurance can
be had. Our intention is uot_ at this time to
trouble our readers with many ofotrr own
ideas on this stibject, but to introduce to them
the following rcuiarks of the editor of the
Troy Sctitiiiel.
“ The habit of i'nstiriug property, says he,
cannot be lu'J llll|‘t“tllllllll2_ and coiitirtned.-
We have sourctiuies been almost led to the
convictioti that it was a triaifs duty to keep his
property trirder in.-tir-ant-e. If it be the duty
of a iriati to l]Cll)(rll1.~‘ll‘iUt1S and sober, in order
tl:.-..it he may be enabled not only to contri-
bute his fair proportion to the support of so
ciety, but that liegiray preserve lrinrselffrom
ilre degraditig elfects of (lt'I)PllLle[1C_€, and put
tiitnself into the condition must frpipurable to
his own moral inrprovetnent, and"to the pro-
motion of the comfort, respectability and gen-
eral well-being oftlrosc who are placed by
their domestic relations in the immediate
sphere of his influence, ifit be the dirty of a
iiran to be industrious, sober, and resolute, for
the sake ofattairzirig a coirdition favourable
to these I-'z=pUl'l'¢||1I ends, why is it not his duty
I0 do wlrathe reasonably atrd fairly can to
preserve himself in such a condition? It is
certainly a duty to cherish a provident spirit.
This can be thoroughly done, only by tnakiug
that inference which experience, in regard to
the general liability of lrumau affairs to vicis-
situde, and by preventing the approach, as far
as practical, of accidental calamity.”
“ But the great majority of men act as if
“ tiiire and chance diu not happen to all”:
and as iftirutability could never affect thetn.
Now-and-then, itideed, they are awakened
t'or.a moment from their lethargy by the swift
descent of some fierce calatiiity, lstuoping on
their coitiforts, like a vulture on his prey ; but
they soon forget; the sttipor soon returns, atid
accidents cotiie and go i-inheeded. Though
chance sets his restless foot in every high road
and by-path of life, .yet most men seem not
to think of arming against hitri ; and though
4,6 meaiis of protection are at hand in every
civiliz-:d cointnunity; though coinracts ofin-
demiiity are ready in every insurance office",
tike shields in an arseiral, to cover them with
defence, yet they neglect to provide thern,a'nd
heir substance and their hopes are left for a
spoil to the ravager.”

At the last advices from NewOrleans a few

went to his house, to partake of refrcslitnerits,
provided for the UC-C:tSlOt_l. Some person pre-
viottsly to the assenibling ofthe corripany, had
been nriscliicvous or wicked enougli, to con-
vey, a large quantity of Tartar Emttic into
the liquor wliicli had been prepared for the

partook of the liquor, and who did not? the
consequences were, that the liottse and the our
houses ; the Barn and the Barn yard.; the
Highways and the Byways, exhibited pit-lures
for the pencil of Hogarth or the pen of Swift.
No person is likely to be materially _lll_IllI‘eLl.

Since ‘the rettirn of the Board of Survey,
