Extract of letter from Surveyor Anderson, dated Moolathoray 5th. 



" These parts were visited by a heavy shower of Rain yesterday 

 evening accompanied by Hail Stones which fell in great abun- 

 dance, and some almost the size of a good large egg, the direction 

 was from Nulleapilly, Moolathoray, Neddapoony, Erthampuddy, 

 and Poodoor, but none fell at Colingumparray, Chittoor, or Tutta- 

 mungalum, although there was a fall of rain, the size at Nullea- 

 pilly was only about that of a small gooseberry."
