A NEW ALLY-the Elements aiding The
Cause.-During the storm which visited our
city on last w ednesday evening, the residence
of one Of the Foreign Ambassadors, in the
West end of the city, was struck by lightning,
and the electric fluid, after passing through
the house, doing some little damage to dresses,
&C., was conducted by the bell-wires to the
wine.celler and to the wires on the champagne
bottles, and sad havoc was played among
them. The cellar was flooded with wine, and
thus portion of this poison was rendered
worthless for the consumption of man by the
action of the All-seeing Power. We are hap
py to state that no personal injury was sus-
tanned by the inmates of the house.
