CLEAR \VEA'i‘ur:~it AGAtN.—Tbis (Monday)
morning, the Sun rose in all its splendor, for the
firs: time, we believe, for ten or twelve days,
during which time,the wind has been constantly
This wet and lowry season has been
in the east.
marked by storms ofunwonted violence, accom-
panied by tliunder&lightniug,awful &Ierific in its
exhibition, and des'ructive in its effects. Indeed,
it isacommon remark, that such a season as the
present was never known before, one in which
the personsacpropcrty ofuur citizens have suffer-
ed so much from the effects ofelectricity. The
storm of Thursday last was one of awful sub-
liimity. The earth here, as well as East, west
and south of us, was deluged with rain, and the
elements seemed to be in one luri l Harrie, while
the rolling thunder made the earth tremble,
and its inhabitants stood in tnute astotiislitnetit
at the terrific and terrible scene.
\Ve have heard of several buildings, as well as
persons who were more or less injured. Below
we give all tlieinfurtiiatinn that has reached as.
The hotise of Capt. Smith, ofSniith’s Island
was struck and somewhat shattered. Mrs.
Smith received the shock, was prosiratcd and
badly injured. Medical assistance was obtaitied
as soon as possible, and we understand that
M rs. S. is doing well.
In “’estport on the east of its, we learn that
the house of Capt. \Vaite was strtick, l)ttt we
believe not much injured. No lives lost except
that ofa dog in the yard.
We hear also, that Bridgeport was visited
with a shock. but we hear nothing authentic.‘
In New Haven, a house oti the corner of
Crown and Park sts. was tntich damaged, the
windows broken. the blinds torn off,and one
side ofthe house, in the larigttage oftlrc.Reg_is-
tar, "literally torn to pieccs." The occupants
miraculouslyescaped without it-jury
At Pawtucket, R. I., the EplSCt)pfll'Clll'll’Cll
was considerably injured on VVedncsday. T
On Friday, at the northeast of us,was a show-
er ofhail, accompanied by sortie rain. and one or
two discharges ofelectricity, one of which was
felt by Mrs. Camp, the wife ofJonathau Camp.
Sen. It was not severe, we believe, but the
effects were felt for several days. .
The storm on Thursday extended for to the
westward. At Stamford, the Congregational
church was struck at about 10 o’clock. The
steeple received the fluid, and was set on fire.-—
The tower is badly injured, the timbers splin-
tered, boards torn from the siditig. the windows
all broken, and the house left in a sliatierecl and
dilapidated condition. The Sentinel says,“Tlie
lightning passed down the condtictor as far as
the be-lfrcy, but the rod parting. it went down
the towerof the steeple. and slanting across the
street, did some little damage on \Vashington
block, and went in underneath a step stone on
the side walk."
At VVest Farms, N. Y., Mr. Horatio St. John
was killed outright. He was at work at his
business, (that of a cooper) with two other
persons, who also were prostrated. They soon
recovered, and attetnpted to restore Mr. St.
John, but life was extinct. M r. S. was former-
ly of \Viltor:, aged about 55 years. In the
same place, but a little farther west—3 Ger-
mans from N. Y., were picking blackberries,&
as the shower came on, took shelter under a tree
which was struck, and all three prostrated, two
ofthe three were killed instantly.
On the same day 1) house was struck in Eliza-
liethport, N. J. and a man standing therein,
killed on the spot.
On Friday, the store No. 9, Catharine st. in
the city ofNew York.was struck and fired, but
extinguished.
Tm: Vi-;'r0 ofthe Tarilfor Revenue Bill is
given on the preceding page; It was transmit-
ted toihe House on Tuesday of last week. \Ve
have become so used to these commodities that
verv little exciiement or interest, comparatively
is manifested, further than an occasional mutter
ofdisgust at the thing and execration ofits author.
We are glad to be able to say that we consid-
er the tone ofthis document, in some respects
more dignified than some of its predecessors.
Though conscience does not figure so promin-
ently, the same sentiment of regret and anxiety
of the author in not being able to agree with
:the legislative branch, is reiterated. The ar-
guments are stale and inconsistent one with
another. Witness the following for example:
“At the opening of the Extra Session. up-
_.wards of twelve months ago. sharing fully in
Abe general hope of returning prosperity and
,credit, I recommended such a distribution; but
that recommendation was even then expressly
coupled with the condition that the duties on
imports should not exceed twenty per cent.”
"A third objection remains to be urged. Wlllcll
would he sufiicient, in itself. to induce me to re-
turn the bill to the House with my 0h_)€Cl|0U5-
By uniting two subjects so incongruous as Tar-
-ifi' and Distribution, it inevitably makes llte
fate ofthe one dependent upon that ofthe other
in future contests ofparty.”
The production is one which might be ex-
pected from a man in just President Tyler's
' situation—-“hedged and damed up" by lttSOWD
inconsistencies, and driven for shelter to the
merest subterfuges.
upon which he bases his argumen
the veto, is a poor and unfortunate one indeed
if he lays any claim to consistency. We need
only to refer back a little to show this. Look
at his letter to the whigs of Pittsburgh, written
in 1840 :
‘My opinions were fully expressed at St.

At the Session of Congress. in June, 1841, he
warmly advttcatcd the distribution of the pro-
ceeds ofthe public lands, although the public
treasury was in circumstances of neccssi:y, and
a loan-oftwclve millions was thgn asked for, to
meet the wants ofthe Government.
He ‘went. into the Harrisburg Convention,the
pretended warm and ardent frietid of Henry
Clay. He shed crocodile tears over the fate of
that eminent statesman, when his natne was
withdrawn from before the convention. Hear
what he says in relation to the convention.
“I do declare,” said he in I‘:-fercnce to the
Convention, “In the presence of my Heaven-

was neither solicited or cxpectt-cl. Irrcnl to

But we do not intend to waste worrls on this
afiiiir. Our readers can look at it it) their own

What will be done under existing circurn
stances, it is difficnt to say. On this question,
congress is divided. A portion. at the head of
which is J.Q. Adams, in the House, is averse to
any further efihrts towards regulating the tariff:
while another portion is willing to make another
attempt to provide a revenue for the government.
It is a matter of uncertainty whether the
vetoed bill could pass congress if it were strip-
ped of its distribution clause : and there is just
as much uncertainty about is becoming a law
should it be carried tliiougli the two houses. \Vc
must therefore await the developrnents of time.
;I:;Hl-2 El:F.C’l‘lO.\‘S.--'I“l)G result of the elections
held dtirjng‘ the. past month, are thus concisely
stated in the N. Y. Journal of Commerce of
Monday. “lo believe they are as correctly
given as practiblc. ” ,
In North Carolina Ilie wliigs have re-elected
Governor l\_lt)r(‘l1t"Ei(i by a diminished majority.
Both branches ofthe Legislature are loco.-—last
year \Vhig. A United States Senator is to be
chosen by this legislature, in place of \Vm.
Graham, \Vlrig.
Iti Alabama,l)otli branches ofthe Legislature
are loco by increased majorities from last. year.
An U. S. Senator is to be chosen by.tliis legis-
lature. in place of Mr. Baghy, loco.
In Kentucky both branches of the Legisla-
ture are \Vhig, as usual. U. S. Senator to be
chosen in place of Mt. Crittendeii, whirv.
lti Indiana it will be a tight fitonjoint ballot.
The Senate has a Whig trtajoritfig ihe I"Iuusc
a loco foco majority. U. S. Senator to bc
cltoseti, in place of M r. Smith, whig. Last
year the whigs had a majority ofS in the Senate
and the locus a majority of 10 in the 2 Houses.
In Illinois. the locus have carried their Gove-
nor, (Ford) and both branches ofthe Lt-gisla
ttire, by increased majorities. U. S. Senator
to be chosen in place of M r. Young, loco.
In Missotiri, the satire party have things
pretty much in their own way, as usual. They
have electctl_,by general ticket, five members
of Congress. viz . James M. Hughes, James ll.
Relfe. Gtistavtis B. Bower, James B. Bow-
in. and John Jameson. It is supposed how-
lever, that these gentlemen will not be admitted
to «their seats, as the recent law of Congress
requires that all members shall he electcal by
single districts. , An U. S. Senator is to be
chosen by the Legislature now elected, in place
of Mr. Linn. loco.
The Congregational Society of Bethel have
advertised for proposals for rebuilding their
house ofworship.
CUT Down Tut-: \Vntans.—A correspondent
who signs himself "Street Inspector,” suggests
to our citizens the propriety of cutting up the
luxttrient growth of weeds in front of their
premises, and thinks it would be not only a pub-
lic improvement, but in‘some cases a very great
convenience to the individuals themselves, and
increase the sum total of their enjoyments by
giving tltem a less bounded prospect.’
A Convention for the purpose, of forming a
State Constitution for Rhode Island,#s to be
held on tbs 23d inst.
The following description of persons are al-
lowed to vote, in the choice ofDelegatc.s, viz
"All those who are qualified to vote for general
officers by existing laws, and all native male
citizens of the United States, (except Naragau-
sett Indians, convicts, paupers, persons under
guardianship and non compostnentis,) who are
of the age of 21 years and upwards, and who
shall have had their permanent residence or
home within the State forlhe period of one
year next preceding such voting.
The Loco foco papers, which authoritatively
ofthese things just now, say that an extra ses-
sion ofthe Legislature will probably be called
at New Haven some titne in October,to district
the State. Our tears and heavy sighs over
Speaker Wightman’s melting address, have.
theref0re,been thrown away.

Mammal/t. Cave in ~Kentuclc_7j.——It is asser-
ted by a writer in the Journal of Couimerce,
that the atmosphere ofthe famos Mammoth
Cave in Kentucky, has qualities of the high-
est efficacy fordiscased lungs. Dr Mitchell,
most of whose faniily have died of consump-
tion, and who was himself reduced to a hope-
less condition by the same disease, believing
that there'were restorative properties in the
air ofthe cave’, resolved to make it his resi-
dc-ncoe for the season; and about the first of
April he took up his abode at the Star Cham-
ber about a mile from its entrance where
he continued till the close ofJune. He says
that in a week after going in the cave his
Cougli was gone, and that his appetite and
strerigtli increased daily. Vllhen he emerged
trom the cave, his health was so far restored
as to be able to ride eighteen tniles,on horse-
back in one day. Vile give the followinsz
extarct frotn the article in the Journal descrip-
tive of some of the peculiarities ol this
remarkable plar'c:—
