Tremendous Explosion and Loss Of One
Thousand Lives.

The Sindian of August 16h has the
following translation of a Persian letter.
received from Joudp re-
"On the night of the Goth of August,
between twelve and two. heavy rain fell,
accompanied with heavy peals of thun-
der and vivid flashes of lightning. A
few minutes after the scene was repeat
ed with tenfold violence. In the for,
belonging 10 the rajah. situated on a
hill constructed of stones of various
sizes, and containing a passage subterra-
neous, the magazine of the rajah had
been kept. This was struck with light
ming, and some thousands of maunds of
powder were exploded.
1.-The shock WAS so great that the
walls of the tort and a temple and -four
ponderous gates were blown up IN the air
into a thousand pieces, destroying 500
houses and all the people living therein.
Up 10 the lime of writing, the remnants
Of the inhabitants were engaged in re
moving the dead bodies found under
these ruins II Ia CLEANED from the
Kotwal of the place that upwards CT one
thousand had already been taken out,
and that others were also being remov
ed. The domestic servant of the ra
jsh, as well as some sepoys who were
kept to guard the place. were all killed"
Such a dreadful occurrence was never
known in Joudpore before. The major
ity of the people were destroyed and
otherwise injured. A stone weighing a
maund was picked up at So~orsanugger
Talao Tour miles from Joudpore. An
other large stone fell at Chowpassaney
six miles away. where falling on a house
it killed three people.

Twenty Five Miles Trotting.

The trotting match between the Tay-
lor and Dalton horses, (the same which
trotted 100 miles a few months since,
came off at Bridgeport. Conn.,, on Fri,
day last, and vas won by the Dalton
horse in / hour 80 minutes.
Their first hall mile was made in 1:45;
while the least time was l:39, and the
longest s:0I. MIR. Dalton stopped his
horse three times for rest, but the other
kept on the track from the start 10 The
close. About 1000 people, among
them many ladies, we're on the grounds.
The authorities of Bridgeport. as a con
dition OF allowing the race, obliged
Messrs. Dalton and Taylor TO make oath
that they had not and would not bet on
the result.

The Yankee Colony in Virginia.

Ely Thayer has located his Yankee
Colony about twelve miles above Iron

where tie new town Of Ceredo is being

so as TO be of the easiest and gentlesI
slope to be found perhaps anywhere on

bank, some of the advantages Of the 10
cation were apparent at a glance. One
of the widest bottoms on the whole river
stretches away for miles above and be-
low. The soil is sandy, eminently favo
rable TO dry cellars and easements
There is a sufficient slope everywhere,
to carry off all surface water. An excel
lent quality of building stone is close at
hand and in great abundance. This is
also the natural and most feasible termi-
nus, we understand, OF the great Central
Virginia Railway, now being constructed
from Norfolk to the Ohio River. and
which is already completed as far as
Covington, between the Blue Ridge and
Alleghanies. The season was so far al
vanced when operations were commenc-
ed, that there can be little show of build
ings this winter. However. quite a num-.
