A letter from Venice, dated the 28th June, mentions that

a violent storm occurred in the night of the 16th, in the province of Padua. " It uprooted large trees, threw down two substantially-built houses, four barns, and a mill, destroyed the sluices, and carried away two vessels on one of the rivers. Two young girls were killed, and twenty-two per- sons more or less injured by the falling of the houses."
