The Terrible Disaster at Indianapolis.

The indianapolis, Ind, Journal of the
I'd contains a detailed account of the ter
rible accident which occurred on the
Fair Grounds in that city on the 1st. We
extract as follows:
"The engine was set up about seventy
five yards west of the Power Hall, and the
saw-mill some fifty or one hundred feet
due north Of the engine. The force of the
explosion seemed to be lateral. Heavy
pieces of the machinery were blown to the
north and to the west long distance; a
few of the lighter parts were found some
distance to the east, but more were thrown
backward. Those who saw it, say nothing
was thrown higher than thirty or forty
feet. The bodies of several men were
lifted into the air, and alighted in man
gled and mutilated shapes many yards
from where they were standing when
struck with the steam An idea of the
force and power, and the horror of the eX
plosion, may be gathered from some of the
incidents which we have been able to col
late.
"Where the engine stood was left no per-
ceptible trace, except an area of smoked
and blackened ground Even the founda-
tion had been torn up, and not a brick was
left standing the one upon the other. The
framing of the saw-mill was thrown
askew, turned over, broken and dislocated.
A large piece of the boiler, which must
have weighed five hundred pounds, was
carried distance of a hundred yards.
One smaller piece was thrown clear into
the time track, and skipping over it, buried
itself into the sod beyond. Another large
piece was blown westward, clear over the
dyke upon the cattle pens. 1t crashed
through the roof of one, and struck a
large OK on the horns, breaking off the
tips, passing entirely out of the enclosure
of the fair grounds One of the shafts, to
which was attached an eccentric, was
thrown sideways over Power Hall, and
landed at the side of Domestic Hall. One
of the rods was twisted off and carried at
least three hundred yards in northerly
direction, striking man on the head who
was standing not far from the amphithea-
tire. In almost every direction smaller
Dieces were thrown, and the air was liter
ally full of splinters, bolts, screws, nuts,
pieces of rods, and such of the lighter
portions Of the engine. Innumerable are
the stories told Of how deadly missiles
ahghted just IN front Of people, arrested

Remarkable Instance Of Equine Saga
city. E.

THE Austin (Va) Republican says:
There is horse at the government
corral, at this place, noted for loosening
the knot ofthe halter strap with which he
is tied. 1t is useless to tie him with any
ordinary knot: He will work the strap
loose with his teeth, and go about the cor
raj, just when he chooses. There is well
in the yard, from which all the government
stock are watered. Day before yesterday
the pump "a force pump worked by
brakers) got out of order, and no water
could be obtained. The animals were
taken to the creek, close by, for water
The horse referred to refused to drink,
was taken to his STALL and tied as usual.
In a few minutes he deliberately united
his halter, walked over to the pump, and,
finding no water in the trough, where he
was accustomed to drink, at once seized
the brake with his teeth, and worked it
up and down several times; then put his
nose to the spout, evidently expecting
water to come. Again and again, for
nearly five minutes, did he seize the brake
and work it, and then put his nose to the
spout. Finding his efforts useless, he
walked off,. evidently disappointed.
Several Of the hands at the corral, and
others, witnessed the above, and can tes
tify to it's correctness.

Telegraphic Communication with the
Planets.

The latest and most fantastic suggestion
in the way of telegraphy is that of a
French enthusiast, who, like all inven-
tors and originators of grand ideas, is now
being heartily laughed at in Europe for
his pains. The old plan with discoverers
was to rack or burn them; the new plan
is to cover them with ridicule. Perhaps
IN this case such punishment is not Hide
served. Our enthusiasts proposal is, not
to fly to the moon, but to communicate with
the eplanets. He wishes to mount gigantic
mirror, capable of being readily moved,
and to give flashing signals to jupiter and
Venus. His theory is, that if these are re-
peated res ularly at given intervals and in
equal numbers of times, the inhabitants of
the planets will come to discern them, to
understand that they mean something,
and to return them Should they do this,
a code of signals could manifestly, without
much difficulty, be devised. The proposer
OF this curious scheme points out that even
now bright spots are occasionally seen on
some OF the planets, and suggests that
they may possibly be similar signals from
tne inhabitants of those orbs to each other
and to us. The idea is said to have been
discussed before now, and to have been
abandoned; but, however impracticabIe or
absurd, 1t has been thought worthy of
serious attention by the French Academy
OF Sciences.
