New Orleans, July 3, 1887.
Accidents from gunpowder and firearms, on
the 4th Of July, are matters Of annual rocur-
renee, record, and caution, without however, d.
minishing in number. -,
ACCIDENT on THE FoURTH.-At Railway, ~
| J., sundry persons were injured by the explosion
of some rockets. A little daughter Of Mr. Luther
Martin was among the number Of those serious

At Newburyport, Mass, a son OF Mr.. Nathan
iel Sarpent. about IL or Ia years Of age, was 80
badly wounded, by tho explosion Of pistol, that
nc will lose both his hands and one eye.

pectedly went 81, tearing his right hand com
plotely of, shattering his arm to Jelly half way

SO partly shot of.

At Piymoth, N. c., by the premature dis

! An artillery piece had been discharged . number
Of times, when suddenly the keg containing the

The cause Of the explosion cannot be accurately
asccrtaincd, but it is thought fire was commun'-
Gated by a piece Of wadding. There were TWEEN.
}, tx81 thirty ps.seas - nea. st the moment, and
s,th none had died.
ISDIAxA-We learn, from New York, that on the
9Th instant, the Fund commissioners Of Indiana
sold one million Of her per cent. bonds at - pei
DAYS before at par, and $500 900, for which the
Commissioners received in cash 96OOO-fort the
option at the end Of sixty days to take it, at par
m,kes 4 ZOO, OOO, which this rising state finds
herself able to raise, at interest OF less than
per cent. to enable her to carry on her bold and
comprehensive system Of Internal improvements
This result is most fattefing to our sister state
and We rejoice With her 1t the evidence it affords
. Of her high credit When Ohio commenced hel
{ canals in 1875, she was only able to sell her
per cents for $97 50 per share, while Indiana is in
Q these times able 10 realize @lO2 upon the came
y description Of stock. Why then should any Por
! ton Of the people Of Indiana be disheartened with
her undertaking. 1t is true she has perhaps
Q undertaking too much at one time; but having
= put her hand to the plough. and having began the
system under such favorable auspices, she cannot
with Justice or credit to herself turn back Every
j. thing is favorable to the cheap and speedy con
0 summation Of the gigantic schemes Of interna
Q improvements which our sister state has adoP
i ted. Money is at her command-laborcrs an
j. abundant-and both labor and provisions arr
y cheap. "(;o ahcad"' then should Be the motto o
