Vienna, July 11.  Yesterday we had a violent thunder storm,
which did considerable damage in the neighbourhood.  At
Krintzing the thunder fell upon the church steeple, and
killed three people who were ringing the bells, in order to
dispel the storm:  What is very remarkable, though their
bodies were in a manner consumed, their cloathes received
very little damage.
