This remarkable view is conceded to be the grandest picture of an electrical discharge from the clouds that was ever reproduced by the camera. It was taken by Mr. Banden, cashier for the "Boston Herald" from his country house, looking across Crystal Lake at Wakefield, Mass., in the year 1868. This discharge struck in the nearby town of Stoneham
