THE NEWS.

Prof. Coe, accompanied by Mr.. Cott'
man, of Rome, N. Y, made balloon ascen.
sion from that place on the goth. When a
the hight of two miles, the balloon burst
and turned up into the netting, forming q
parachute and landing tho voyagers safely in
a swamp three miles from the starting point
Prof. La Mountain, the missing eronaut
was last seen in the town of Pitcairn, S..
Lawrence county, N. Y, fifty miles due
northeast from Watertown, at a supposed
altitude of five miles, going due east with
great velocity. Mr.. Morrison, of Troy, his
agent, has proposed instituting thorough
search for him.
"A despatch from Troy of the 9th says
the announcement of the safety OF La
Noun tain, the aronaut, is erroneous, He
has not been heard from. ..
A canal bridge at Albion, N. Y, gave
way on the 2sth, with large crowd of
people on it, and the whole party was thrown
into the canal, and many were drowned
before assistance could be rendered. The
loss of life is estimated at eighteen, though
it is supposed that many bodies are still in
the water. A large number received severe
injuries.
The New York Tribune says there is
now but little doubt that La Mountain, the
aronaut, and his companion, J. A. Haddock,
editor of the Watertown IN. W Reform,
have been lost. They ascended from Water
town, on the 22d of September, since which
time they have not been heard from. They
have probably met a fearful death. A reward
of 81, 900 has been offered for the discovery
of the bodies alive, and $500 if dead.
The Denver City Express, with dates to
the 22d ult., arrived at Leavenworth on the
sOth, bringing $4,000 in dust. The increase
of crime in and around Denver City and
Auraria had become alarming, and demanded
prompt action for its suppression. The State

ACCIDENTS AT TUE ST. Louis FAIR.-One
man was murdered by having his throat cut
in drinking saloon and another crushed to
death between two street cars at the ST.
Louis Fair, on the first day of the exhibition.
On the second day, n grand runaway, turn
over, and smash up occurred among the fast
'nen who "ero showing off their horses and
snlkes in the ring. About twenty-five horses
and sulkies were flying round the ring in the
presence of ten or twelve thousand persons,
when one driver ran into the gig of another
one, which frightened his horse. The horse
bounded off at full speed, striking several
other horses and snlkies, and starting them
off likewise. Within minute the panic
and runa way feeling was communicated to
almost every horse in tie ring. Gigs were
smashed to~splinters drivers were hurled
eadiong from their seats to the ground
and run over some Of them held on to their
reins, and were dragged along; one or two
got caught with their feet in the wheels aud
were hurled about in a trightful manner
Some OF the horses mady attempted to jump
over the railing among the frightened spec
tators. Others plunged madly for tho en-
trance and exi: places, and dashed their ye-
hicles to pieces against the sides OF the pas
sage way. In five minutes it was all over,
and horses, men and gigs had cleared the
ring. Strange to tell, no one was killed,
though several received severe contusons,
and few escaped without bloody faces or
soled or torn garments.
The Fair seems to have been much inter-
rupted bv showers. Rain fell every day
last week except Friday (the last day Of our
report.) 1t was thought the exhibition would
in consequence be continued on Monday
ard Tuesday of this week. On Friday
the premium of 81, 900 for the best roadster
stallion was awarded to "Stockbridge Chief,'

BRIrp n THE CHEAT EASTERN
1ss. sssss sss steamship was construct
ed For thezzsS SSzs5x Steam Navigation Com
pany, Incorporated by royal charter, and is
intended to run on the Indian Australian
route, by the Cape OF Good Hope, though
she is intended to make her first voyage to
America. The capital Of the company was
originally $6,O00,n00, but has since been
considerably increased, and is divided into
shares of $500 each, and is composed of
about 5000 shareholders. She has been
about three years in construction, and her
entire cost will not fall far short of three
millions of dollars. From the immense
size of the vessel and the small width Of
the Thames at Milwail, it was determined
to launch her beam on, or sideways, and
the ways aud cradles were constructed ac-
cording to this design. The launch was
attended with numerous delays and difficult
ties. On the Sd Of November, 1857, the
monster being ready for launching into her
destined element, the first attempt to get
her into the water was made. 1t was in.
etfectual, as were also numerous other at
tempts, on account of the great weight of
the vessel, Until the 3lst of January, 1853,
when she was pushed fairly off iuto de, p
water. The'huil Of this vessel is built en-
tirely of iron, and is $50 feet. in length, 80
feet in breadth and SO feet in height, from

ten separate compartments of 60 feet each,
rendered perfectly water tight by bulkheads,
having no opening whatever lower than the
second deck, whilst two Longitudinal walls of
iron, Sc feet apart, traverse $50 feet of the
length Ut the ship. The weight of this
huge ship being $4,000 tons, and her coal
and cargo about $4,000 tons more, the mo-
tive power required to propel her twenty
miles per hour must be proporionate. She
il larger by $4,000 tons than any other yes
