the right to use reasonable force in cjecting him

EARrHouAKEs.-There are two theories res
pecting the cause of earthquakes. LIST The ignc-
Gus theory; which maintains that the earth was
once molten fiery ball, aud that its interior is
still fiery mass, and is sometimes caused to
generate waves, which produce oscillations on
the eartll's surface. I'd. The electric theory;
which attributes the shocks to disturbed mag
netic action in the crust of the globe-that the
shocks are nothing more than powerful electric
shocks. As earthquakes are local, those who
dispute the igncous molten mass, say if Garth
quake were caused by waves Of this tluid, then
the oscillations would be felt equally strong on
every part of the earth's crust.

TnE TrRluEr. AcclDExr AT Tyler, Texas
The Tyler Reporter, of the eth ult., gives the
following account of the accident at that place
by which a number of persons were seriously in
jurcd.
On Friday night last, the 21st while an audi.
cnce of about one hundred and fifty were assem-
bled in the upper room of the Federal Court
House, the pillars supporting the same gave way
and the floor, together with the whole audience,
fell through, distance Of twelve or fourteen
feet. The confusion that succeeded the crash
was such as We have rarely had the misfortune
to behold. Husband was exc!aiming for wife,
wife for husband, parents for children, and the
screams of the frantic crowd made the yerg blood
chill in the veins.
There were some of our citizens seriously
wounded, and nearly all the persons present
were damaged to some extent Mr.. d. n. Cow
sar, of this place, had both legs broken and an
arm dislocated, and is the principal sufferer
His injuries are Of a serious character. There
were about ten or twelve who received injuries,
and who arc now under the care Of physicians,
The Holman House, near the scene Of disaster,
rcscmblcd hospital, and the night was render
ed llidcous by the screams and groans OF the
wounded.
We trust that VIC may never have TO chronicle
another such calamity-a calamity which cast
sorrow aud gloom into many houses. But VIC
are thankful no lives were lost.
