They state, that when Gen. Jesup rode up from Tampa to Fort King, he passed within twenty paces of them. It is Get).

The greatest anxi,ety existed in Liver pool, during the week ending the 8 th, for the arrival of the Europe, packet of May 16th, from N ew York. The most gloomy apprehensions existed of further news of insolvency in the United States. Mr. Thos. Atwood, member for Birm- ingham, brought the state of commercial distress before Parliament, June Sth, in a powerful speech. He expressed his regret that Peel’s Currency Bill was ever enact ed. He said that every man in Britain but the fundholder and the fixed annuitant was robbed, but that as much evilWould now result from repealing as from confin ing the bill; The debt of the nation, he. thought, being contracted in paper, ought also to be liquidated in that hind of money.

The following facts are derived from a gentleman near the scene of the disaster. 'Dining the thunder storm on Tuesday night, the llth inst., the house of Mr. Walter Hawley, situated about three miles west of the Ridgefield church, was struck with lightning, and, distressing to relate, Mr. Hawley, his son, and grand child, were instantly killed, while in bed. Mrs. Hawley, immediately after the flash, called several times to her husband, who slept in an adjoining room, and, not being answered, she went to the bed, and found her husband a corpse. She then called upon her son, who occupied a room be low, and he not answering, she hastened to the spot, and found him and his child dead, and his wife senseless, who, it is supposed, cannot recover—aud who Was delivered of a fine child early on the foi. lowing morning, which does not appear to be .affected in the least degree by the shock.
