TREMENDOUS EXPLosIoN.-LoSs
OF ONE THOUSAND LIVES.


The lSindian OF August I6th has the
following translation Of Persian letter, re-
eeived from Joudpore:--
"On the night Of the 10th Of August,
between twelve and two, heavy rain FELL.
accompanied with heavy peals of thunder
aud vivid flashes OF lightning. A few
minutes after the scene vas repeated with
tenfold violence. IH the fort belonging to
the rajah, situated on bill constructed of
stones Of vurious sizes, and containing
passage subteraneOus, the magazine Of the
rgah had been kept, This was struck
with lightning, and some thousands Of
maunds Of powder we're exploded.
'fThe shock was 50 great that the walls
OF the fort aud temple and our pondrous
gates were blown up in the air into thOus
and pieces. destroying 500 houses and all
the people living therein. Up TO the time
Of writing, the remnants Of the inhabitants
were engaged in removing the dead bodies

wards of one thousand had already been
taken out, and that Others we've also being
removed. The domestic servants Of the
rajah, as well as some sepoys who were
kept to guarl the place, were all killed"
Such dreadful occurrence was never
known in Joudpore before. The
majority Of the people were destroyed and
otherwise injured. A stone weighing one
maund was picked up at Soorsanugger
Talao four miles from Joudpore. AnOth-
er large stone fell at Chowpassauey, six
miles away, where falling on house, it

CARL SHURz, a German Republican,
who proved his faith by his works during
the struggle of lS4s-9 for liberty in Eu-
rope, is now the Republican candidate for
Lieut.. Governor Of Wisconsin. He re-
Gently made speech at Madison, of which
the following IS the conclusion:
And now one last word to you, fellow
soldiers, in the cause of Freedom:
l do not know whether | have been
able to instiIl into your hearts that deep
anxiety for liberty which fills mine. You
are the spoiled children Of fortune, The
sun of liberty smiled upon you when you
opened your eyes to the light of day
You have grown up nursed by the blessings
of seIf-government; neither you nor hard
ly your fathers have seen the day when it
was otherwise. You know the curses of
despotic lule but from hearsay and your
imagination is hardly able to realize the
sufferings of the down.trodden man. But
|, Sir, have seen despotism and felt its
scourge. | have seen the great masses of
noble nations butalized by the blighting
sway of absolute government l have seen
fond hopes dying, and noble aspirations
turned into despair l have seen blood
split for liberty, split for liberty, split pro-
fuseIy, but split in vain. l have heard
the moaning agonies Of crushed nations.
And this moment, dear, familiar faces rise
before my eyes--faces on which once the
sublime glow of genius and enthusiasm
shone brightly, now tinctured with the
lurid paleness of dungeon life, but within,
restlsss fire devouring them; the 5urr-
ing desire of free activity, checked by the
clanking Of chains, almost driving them to
madness. Oh, my friends, you cannot
imagine what electric thrill the word "lib-
erty" sends through the heart of a man
whose head is borne down by the leaden
weight of oppression. You, perhaps,
have never measured the incalcuiabIe vaI-
ue Of the treasures you possess. Do not,
Iimplore you, do not jeopardize them in
a wanton race of ambition and greediness.
Do not, like a spendthrift, squander your
noble inheritance, vaiuly imagining that
it is inexhaustible. Liberty is valued
most when lost, but then it is too late, aud
| tell you, your institutions do not stand
as firmly as pillars of heaven. You are
free yet, men of Wisconsin. You are
welding yet the formidable mace of self
Government. Lift it high, and throw
it down with crushing blow on the head
Of the serpentl Long and continued APP

THK BKAUTT or CHILDEkE-A Word
TO oTHKBs--There is 20 object in the
world more pleasau: to look upon than a,
beautiful child. Even the erustiest Of old
bachelors must acknowledge this in bis

sOuFed his temper. Unfortunately, how
ever, the freshness and natural bloom Of
childhood are often maued by dis6guring
disorders. Sometimes We see youthful
faces blemished with fiery circleS and look.
ing as il disease had been at work upon
them with 8 pair Of compasses dipped in
rcd ochre. OF course every mother reeog
nises this description Of ringworm, to which
the still more disgusting cutsneous aitse-
ton known as sead bead is next to kin
Probably nine tenths Of US have had q
touch Of these unpleasant eruptiye com
plants at one time or other, and most Of
us know that they are not only disfguriug
but excessively annoying and painful
We are aware too that most OF the nos
trums recommended FOR them merely
spread and aggravats inflammation. and
that it frequently leads to confirmed dis.
ease OF the skin. Under these eircum-
stances. il is to be presumed that all parents
who are not conversant with the wonder
ful properties of HollOway's Ointment will
be glad to learn, on good authority, that
it is a quick and thorough remedy for
ringworm and scald head as we'll as for
other external diseases. The testimony
which goes to establish the fact is ineon-
trovertible. aud every mother who wishes
to see the faces Of her darlings unelouded
by eruptions and their heads encrusted
with excrescent matter, is entitled 10 know
it.
Professor Holloway has obtained such
a reputation throughout the world for his
external and internal remedies, that his
name must of course be familiar to all our
readers; bnt after all there is no harm in
giving point and force to general CON-
mendation by specifying certain diseases
in which one knows that they have work
ed wonders. The effect of the Ointment
in cases Of ringworm aud scald head, is but
specimen Of its marvellous operation il

many who have used ii for boils, bruises

thought Of it with reference to these two
sOourges of childhood. If any mother
should try it on cur recommendation, We
have little doubt she will give it perma-
nent place in her nursery closet for thC
time to come. Much may be done t.

and regular exercise in the open air, bu

itself, there is no curative so reliable a

WHO ARE ARISTOCRATSs

Twenty years ago this one made candles,
that one sold cheese and butter, another
butchered, another was a contractor on ca
mails, Others were merchants and mechan.
les. They are acquainted with both ends
of society, as their children will be after
them-though it will not do to say so out
loud. For often you shall find that these
toiling worms hatch butterflies-and they
live about a year. Death brings division
of property, and it brings new fnanciers.
The old gent is discharge, the young gent
takes his revenues aud begging to travel
towards poverty, which he reaches before
death, or his children do il he does uot.-
So that, in fact, though there is a sort of
moneyed race it is not hereditary; it is ac-
cessable to all. Three good seasons of cot,
ton will send generation of men up-a
score Of years will bring them all down
and send their children to labor. The IA
ther grubs and grows rich--his children
strut and use the money. The children,
in turn, inherit the pride and 60 to shift
less poverty. Next, their children, rein
vigorated by fresh plebeian blood, and by
the smell of the clod come up again.
Thus society, like a tree, draws its sap
from the earth, changes it into leaves and
blossoms, spreads them abroad in great glo
ry. sheds them off to fall back to the earth,
again to mmgle with the soil, and at length
to reappear in new dress and fresh garni-
ture.
