Greatest Storm in England.
Not far from Drury Lane, London, is
a street called 11rild Street, in which
there is a Baptist chapel. This institu-
tion has for 173 years been remarkable
for a sermon annually preached there in
commemoration of the greatest storm
that has occurred in England in modern
times. Robert Taylor, who survived
this fearful visitatior after having been
expoced to awf ul peril, placed a stnall sum
of money in the public funds to pay for
an annual sermon which never fails to
excite extraordinary interest. This
storm, for several years afterward inen-
tioned not as a storm, but as the storm,
.vas comparable, says Lord Stanhope, in
his history of Queen Anne's reign, to
tho worst in tropical climes. lts chief
force was spent in the south and south-
west of England. Tho Queen was
aroused from her lied in St. James's
palace by part, of that venerable struc-
ture being blown down, and the Bishop
of Beth and Wells and his wife were
kiLled by the fall of a chimney stack.
The Registrar of Eton College was blown
from ,his room into the street near Led.'
gate !fill, London. The damage done
at Bristol was computed at 150,000.
"Portsmouth," says a writer of the time,
" looks like a city bombarded." The
Eddystone Lighthouse was swept into
the sea. The whole country was strewn
with giant treos, torn frotn the roots by
a wind such as had never been known
before. Curiosity led Defoe to count
them in a ride around London. Ile
counted '17,000 and, then got tired.
But tbe most tereible disasters were at
sea. Fifteen sail of tho line, including
Admiral Bowatei. and the whole of his
crew, together with several hundred
tuerchantmet. mid a. sixty-four gun ship,
with Admiral Beaumont on board, per-
ished, the latter in full view of deal. Of
269 men but one was saved—cast by a
wave on shore. It hail been computed
that 8,000 people were lost. Tho House
of Commons presented an address to
the Queen, deploring the loss of the
navy, and suggesting the building of
new ehips, this being, gays Lord Mac-
auley, the only occaxion in England
when a tempost evoked a public address,
or the national fast which followed it.
During Queen Anne's reign the day ot
storm continue d, in obedience to ber
proclamation, to be solemnly observod.
The worst year i tt England since than
was 18 14. In i aMumn and winter
the sea was covet ed with wrecks and
the coast with cor; sees. On Nov. 20 a
fearful storm evsept up the tumultuous
Atlantic. The wi tal raged for three
days with appallin g fury. The year
closed with a long -remembered snow
storm which ebsolu. tely paralyzed loco-
motion throughout th tekingdorn for near-
ly a week. Tbe foreign mails were tient
by sea from London to the Continent
because the road through Kent, despite
the efforte of the imi noinge crowd sent
to clear it, remained i eipassible. "Per-
haps," oisservea a writer, referring to it
some year) later, " no act of nature

The following details a cruel trick, as
described in the Glasgow Observer :—
" Looking over the bulwarks of the
eohooner," writes a correspondent to
this journal, "1 saw one of those watch-
ful monsters winding lezily backward
and forward like a long meteor ; some-
times rising until his nose disturbed the
ataface, and a gushing sound like A deep
breath rose through the breakers ; at
others, resting motionless on the water,
as if listening to our voices, and thirst-
ing for our blood. As we were watch-
ing the motions of this monster, Bruce
(a lively little negro and toy cook) sug-
gested the possibility of destroying it.
This was briefly to heat a fire -brick in
in the stove, wrap it np hastily in some
old clothes as a sort of disguise, and to
heave it overboard. Tide was the work
of a few minute.: ; and the effect W9.8
triumphant. The monster followed the
hissing prey. We saw it dart at the
brick and gorge it instanter. The shark
rose to theeell.deoo ahnost immediatelY,
and his uneasy motions soon betrayed
the SUOCE188 of the mantruvra. His ago -
ales beeame terrible ; the waters appear-
ed as if disturbed by er violent squall,
abd the spray was driven over the tuft
rail where W fl stood, while the gleaming
body of the fish repeatedly burst through
the dark waves, as if writhing with fierce
and terrible convulsions. Sometimes
we thought we beard a shrill bellowing
cry, as if indicative of anguish and rage,
rising through the gurgling waters. Ilia
fury, however, was soon exhausted ; in
a short time the sounds broke away into
distance, and the agitation of the sea
ubsided. The shark had given himself
up to tho tides, as unable to struggle
against the approach of death, aud they
werss cavrying his body unresistingly to
the beach." .

A Rat Story.
The Pittsburg Tsleyroplc tells the fol-
lowing: " A. banker of this city had
a valuable cow which gave a large quan-
tity of milk and was held in high esteem
for general good qualities. All at once
the supply of lacteal fluid grew smaller
by degrees and beautifully less, until
the yield was scarcely worth baying.—
The family were greatly surprised at
this, as the animal was in perfeet health
and in the height of her [Dragon. It wee
hinted that scene person whose love for
milk overcame his scruples for stealing
was at the bottom of the mischief, and
ethat, like a thief at night, he entered
the stable- where .-Imsey was kept,- arra
relieved her of thri- milk. The hired

One of the eharpeet eases of syindling
which has reoently occurred this vi-
cinity, took place at one of onr promi-
nent dry good stores. A finely dressed
lady appeared in the shawl department
of the store.in question, and, -after care-
ful exaruinittiOn, selected a oamel's-hair
shawl costing about $100, forwhich she
tendered in peyment $1,00Q bill,
which was closely scrutinized by the
cashier, who, doubting his own powers
of discrimination, deepatobed a enessen-
ger to the bank to ascertain the genn'ne-
nese of the bill. Meanwhile the lady
customer had becomb anxious toProcure
the change* and had apprdached the
osllty minded by the Tann of scri
when the messenger returned an
flounced in an audible t
cashier of the bank said
was good. The lady u
waxeci exceeding wroth, -
to know " whether ho thought that she
would attempt to pass a counterfeit
bill 2" Of °muse apologies -and explan-
tiong Wf1111 of no neetil, and assuming to
be highly indignant site refused to pur-
(these the shawl, demanded her money
and departed from the store the very
embodiment of righteous indignation.
A couple of hours afterwards she re-
turned considerably mollified, ,and ctn•
fessed that she was pleased with the
shawl, and that leer inability to find one
which she liked as woll was the only
reason she returned, and she concluded
to take it, which the obliging saleirman
proceeded to have prepared, while the
courteous cashier, disdaining to enter-
tain a suspicion against such a lady,
proceeded to count out the $900 ()banger,
with which and her shawl the lady de-
parted. Tlae feelings of that storekeep-
er can bo better iinagined than .deseribeid
when he awoke to a realizing sense of
the fact that his lady custonier had, after
all his precaution, succeedad in passing
upon him a counterfeit $1,000 bill. It
appears diet, anticipating just what had
occurred, she had provided herself with
f,00d bill, which played its part in the
first stage of the game, after which it re-
tired in favor of the counterfeit.—Boston
