The frequency and Tiolence of thun der ptorms, and the many catastrophes that have attended them, have of late excited general apprehension, and re opened the old discussion about light ning conductors and other devices for safety. . It is remarkable that recently observed phenomena refute 'not a few old and firmly trusted expedients, and suggest the. utility of accepting all, or nearly all, of the tune honored notions on the subject, witfc caution.

Moreover, it is ; affirmed that in many cases the fluid, falling on a group of both sexes, has picked out the males. It would appear from this that during thunder storms, if at 1 no other time, the ladies mav, .with rational delicacy, give up the places of most approved security jto their! male companions. Apart from this discrim ination of sexes, the lightning exhibits I still other preferences, j Vonderful as it seems, there are persons who have been struck by it several times during their lives; and, what is more astouis ing still, one such person has been struck by lightniug three times in three different dwellings. He has the con solation of knowing that the frequency of these visitations seems, to deprive them of their fatal character--for, we believe he still survives but vet the chance of being struck by lightning, so often made a jest of, because in any individual case so unlikely, must al ways in his case be uncomfortably probable j .
